Great value and service
helpful advice from owners and management with regard to where to eat; how to get around vietnam; what to do in Ben Tre. Quite location near the river just out of the hustle of the centre. Value for m

a very good experience of the Mekong delta. Enjoyed the half day tour arranged by the hotel which included boat trip; brick factory visit; coconut factory visit; candy factory visit; lunch out in the country side with so much good food; tuk tuk ride; paddling down a small river and a helpful guide. Good advice by hotel management ( ms hong) on how to get there from saigon - phinh phat bus - only 73,000 vnd to the oasis hotel. Nice family room with one double and two singles. Good omelette for breakfast.

Great place, priced a bit high
7.7
We had a great stay would have liked to stay longer but things to see and phő to eat. If priced slightly lower could have justified staying longer.
However a tidy little property and you wouldn't go wrong staying here. Knowledgable and friendly capable staff and a chilled feeling you could easily lose time here.
We used the bikes to get around which was excellent and caught the 4-5 hour cargo boat to Tra Vinh which comes to Oasis jetty if you ask them to book.

An OASIS Indeed!
It is away, far away from the mayhem of Ho Chi Minh City. The PEOPLE are FANTASTIC!!!! The pool is a great asset to cool off after a trip in the Mekong and heat!
7.7
Highlights include the beautiful spirited Hong...who took good care of us. And the generosity of Ken to run me to places on his motorbike - an experience in itself!
The efficient air con was a godsend, the bikes were great too.

fair stay with an unfortunately incident
nice area, breakfast, tours
4.7
We had a fair stay on this hotel. The tour they had was really nice. Hong is very kind and friendly. The room was okay, the bathroom was not so clean. But we had an unfortunately incident here. We rented a motorbike from the hotel a day, and in the afternoon outside a cafe which the staff recommended the motorbike was stolen! We did not know what to do. We came back to the hotel and no one said something. So we figured that they solved it. But then the next day when we were checked out and everything they refused to give us ours passport and told us that we had to pay for the motorbike. So we recommend to not rent a motorbike which not is insured!

charming hosts and great local knowledge
the hosts, the bar, the hammocks
8.3
Our stay was great. The Oasis is a hotel with a bit of relaxed backpacker hostel feel to it. The outdoor bar, pool, hammocks, and patio were a great space to hang out. It was quite nice to have a beer or two with one or two other parties who were staying there.
The hosts are an Australian and his Vietnamese wife. They are genuinely enthusiastic about sharing tips and stories about the area. When we asked about the local coconut candy we had heard about, Ken took my boyfriend to the shop on the back of his motor bike - but not without stopping to buy new prescription glasses for $40 and going on a tour of Ben Tre.
The rooms are average for Vietnam: clean, plenty of room, good light, cable, and amenities.

a nice relaxing evening.
ease of booking onward boat travel, good internet, nice common space to relax by the pool
6.7
Comfortable rooms with good internet, a refreshing pool and good common area to meet the occasional other travelers. Though it's a bit far from the center, there are a couple of good eats nearby and they provide bicycles. They also helped us book our cargo boat to Tra Vinh. Their day tours around the area seemed a bit pricey, however.

Perfect for a short break in the Mekong Delta
friendly, informative staff, good price, good pool
7.3
The hotel is small, run by a Kiwi-Vietnamese couple, and the staff are friendly and efficient. The pool is on the large side for this kind of family run hotel (10 metres or so), shaded, just about big enough for (short) laps, and good for just relaxing. The staff were very helpful in organising tours if we wanted them, and in giving information about the local area. Good quality bikes were available for hire. The area is a little out of town, about 20 minutes walk, but a pleasant walk along the river. Plenty of restaurants within that distance.

Hidden Treasure
Staff and owners were fantastic, clean and comftable, affordable.
8.3
The owners of Oasis Hotel are very helpful, they were eager to recomend routes and gave us advice of tours and ways to visit the nearest area. We hired a motorbike wiht them to visit the surronding areas. Everything was very clean, the swiming pool is middle size. Breakfast was chosen from some options and delicious.
