Very nice homestay if you want to do a trek in the Banlung area. Our bungalow was really confortable and clean, the food was really good, and we had a great time during the 2-day trek organized directly by the owner!

“Lovely countryside family home”

Absolutely loved my stay here. A very welcoming family environment by the countryside. Truly relaxing. There's a lot to do in Banlung so after busy days whether you're exploring waterfalls, trekking or elephant touring, it's great to come back here and relax. The home cooked meals are incredibly delicious and Sat is always around to help you with anything you may need. I booked three nights but ended up staying six! It's great money for value, I would definitely recommend this place!

“Amazing stay!”

We spent a wonderful week with this family who were kind, welcoming and took very well care of us. The food was always delicious, the little girl was a clown to play with and both parents were smiling and generous people. We went on a 2 days trek with the owner and had an amazing time in the jungle, eating fresh caught fish and red ants, learning about local plant's uses and more generally about the Ratanakiri area and it's minorities. We will definitely be back sometime!

“It was amazing, very nice people and we felt at home”

Cosy and the perfect place to relax

“Fantastic stay at Sart’s place”

We enjoyed a lot our stay at Sart’s family homestay, actually we were coming back after several months away and the place is even more beautiful now than it was before ! A lot of new fruit trees, delicious homemade mushrooms, new cabins built and above all the feeling to be with family and experience the true khmer life. Sart is doing everything possible to make you feel like home and he shares a lot about his culture, his knowledge of the region and his own life. His wife is a great cook and his daughter is the most adorable child… He also arranges your trekking in the jungle and has different options to suit everyone’s situation. It’s always a pleasure for us to come back, we trully feel like home here… Thank you so much my friend !

The room it's clean comfortable to stay it's nice to chill quiet place owner very friendly and kind very helpful and the room very cheap nice view just feel like home

“Very good farmehouse with kind owners”

The man of the farmhouse can speak very good English and he tells you a lot about his mushroom farm. The room and bathroom are very clean and there is also a mosquito net. You can also eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at the farmhouse which tastes delicious.

Great value and helpful host. Very clean and reasonablely priced food.

Excellent home made meals. Good guide tour. Friendly family.

Everything was good. This house is a bit far from down town by foot but it's not a problem because you'll be welcomed so nicely ! The host and his family are kind and they really want you to have a pleasant stay The host is proposing different treks to do with him in the jungle nearby and I can only recommand to do it

“Amazing experience with a traditional khmer family”

The stay with Sard and his family was amazing. There are really nice and generous. The bungalow are good price/quality traditional Khmer. They are simple but really clean. If you want to live a traditional experience with a family it is the best way. Morever if you want to do a trekking in the jungle the owner can be your guide. He knows a lot about nature. A really good experience for those who want adventure. He can pick up you at the bus station because the house is in the village.

“Best typical homestay”

Very nice place to stay and sooo cheap! Of course you do not have the confort of 5 stars hotel, but it is still quite nice! Saat (the owner) can discuss with you and let you discover his region. He can also do tuktuk driver and guide for an amazing Trekk in the jungle, as you will see nowhere else! I highly recommand

“A charming place that’s unbelievably good value”

this is a wonderful place! accommodation is in simple but delightful bungalows, each with own veranda and hammock (and bathroom). the host is incredibly friendly, helpful and organises trekking, I only wished we could have gone with him (he was away in the jungle when we arrived so had to organise with someone else). the bungalows are set in a peaceful location and the family have a mushroom farm which is also an interesting thing to see. A great place which I’d highly recommend! I’d come again for sure

“Amazing stay in an amazing family in an amazing place”

The place is just perfect ! Good bungalows, amazing family living here and super cheap prices Don’t miss the food !

“Amazing stay in this homestay !”

Staying at Sart’s homestay was a great moment of our trip, he is a really good person and has a beautiful family. They make you feel very welcome and they share their daily life with you, including great meals cooked by Sart’s wife, always delicious… The cabin is really comfortable, with space, WiFi and private bathroom, really worth the price you’re paying. The location is nice, quiet and you can easily get to the city center of Banlung. Mister Sart organizes trekking in the jungle, he has different options from 1 to 7 days. You also can rent a scooter for a fair price if you want to go swimming in the lake or waterfalls nearby. We 100% recommend this homestay if you come to Ratanakiri region, we will be back… Thank you my friend !

- in general friendly owner (but see negatives) - great price for value - comfortable mattress - good food with the family for reasonable prices

“very memorable, fun stay with a wonderful host who made it such a pleasure”

The host is a lovely guy who is really pleased to have you stay and takes pride in showing you around his farm and explaining the mushroom growing process. his full day tuk tuk tour was fantastic (rubber plantation, zircon mine, minority village, waterfalls and lake) and was one of our favourite days in Cambodia, because of his enthusiasm and spirit. The family dinner we shared with other guests was such fun and the food the rest of the time was really good too. He also happily took one of us to the local market one day with him while he was visiting to help us buy some things from the pharmacy and some fruit. The bed was very comfy and the mosquito net was in excellent condition. You definitely won’t regret staying here!

We stayed 2 nights in Sat's farmhouse because we wanted to do a jungle trek in Virachey national park. When we booked, we didn't expect how exeptional our journey would be. On the homestay : if I could give a 11 score I would definitely do it. Wood bungalows are confortable with twin beds (good mattress, mosquito net, private bathroom). The shower water is cold but not too much and it's vivifying !. It's perfectly clean. So rooms are perfect, but it's nothing compared to the welcoming of Sat and her wife. Sat is a very good person, he will do everything he can to make your stay confortable. He speaks an impressive good english and wants to share everything he knows with you : mushroom culture (in his farm), fruit trees, Ratanakiri region, national park (Sat was a guide). With his wife, he prepares excellent typical Cambodian food from breakfast to thel dinner that you won't find in restaurant. You just feel good staying there and we didn't really want to leave the homestay... And everything is sold at a very honest price, money is not Sat's leitmotif. Generosity is the one. On the trek : we stayed 3 days and 2 nights in the jungle. We will never forget. Everything is organised by Sat. We were five french tourists and were assisted by 1 guide speaking english from Wrong minority + 2 rangers from Kavet minority. They know the jungle by hearth and take care of everything (they are impressive). We walked through the jungle, swan into the river, ate bbq fish, vegetable from the jungle and even built a bamboo raft. We slept in US army hammock (very confortable, with a mosquito net). They prepared very good food in big quantities so despite the physical effort it was almost impossible to feel hungry !! It's a real adventure, not a tourist attraction.

“A great authentic experience”

If you're tired of being on the beaten track, this is definitely the place to go: total immersion into the life of a very kind and welcoming Cambodian family. The bungalows, although quite basic, are very clean, comfortable, and extremely cheap. Beyond the guesthouse, the family will happily show you around their farm and tell you all about mushroom growing. Whether you are looking for a tuk-tuk tour around the region (which we did - it was great!) or a trek, they can easily organise! We recommend 100 %.

“Wonderful place!”

The owners are really really kind and the food so good. It was a pleasure to stay here and chat with Sat to know more about the khmer culture. If we had known before we would have done the trek with him because he knows a lot about the jungle. Would definitely recommand it!
