Lak Tented Camp

Amazing place and amazing view and staff. We stayed here with our kids and friends and enjoyed every minute the view is unforgettable, the staff was very nice and helpful. Special atmosphere. Very recommended! Great for romantic vibe or with kids. Do not miss it if you are in the area.

A peaceful oasis of calm in this tented camp . The tents are well equipped if a little tired, but the food was very local and fresh, and the staff very friendly . A couple of short tours out , the Bimbap waterfall and cycle tour on ancient bikes to local village to learn of the M’Nong culture and local coffee growing If you can , add this to your busy itinerary of Vietnam for a very different view of life

We spent two nights in a Tent overlooking the lake (last one #15). Very good concept. Our tent was next to the mini-farm, good to see the goats and pigs and chicken before eating some of them. The tent was well appointed if a little frayed at the edges. I understand the camp has been built 2016, the grounds are well kept and nicely laid out. The restaurant and main lodge are in traditional style. Restaurant staff is knowledgeable. Reception and lounge staff, maybe because it was mid-season, mostly composed of nice enough but inexperienced teenagers. You can wait half an hour waiting for somebody to notice you are hanging out and maybe in need of a drink, while two staff teenagers are eagerly chit-chatting over some video they are watching on the laptop nearby. But very helpful overall, once prompted. Food is hyper-local, and hence not the most sophisticated but certainly authentic for the Central Highlands. There is a lost opportunity to emphasize localism, what with the zell-tended vegetable garden in the middle of the camp, but no attempt to showcase the work or the results (the food in the restaurant). Similarly, if the resort is sustainable etc, then showcase it a little more than just in a hardly legible paragraph in the room flyer. Maybe organize a mini-tour, including of the resort temple on the hill that I discovered by accident. Central Highlands are really interesting, minorities, crafts, traditions, cultures, agriculture, and the short tours are well organized. The lake itself is not that inviting, appartently it is a water reservoir but I would not drink that water. Explanations/touring the fishing would be a good thing too. So all in all 4 as there is room for improvement but overall a good experience off the beaten path. No wifi in tents.

The hotel is on the other side of Lak lake which is approachable by boat or by car in 20 minutes. The view is beautiful. The ambience is fresh, relaxing and peaceful. Staff are helpful and friendly. My booking package is a good deal including tented room, dinner & breakfast, 3-hour cycling tour to local cacao garden, pottery village and green paddy field. I also enjoy kayaking around the lake and the food by chef at the restaurant. If my room is fully lake-view, that would be better. My room is partial lake-view which is blocked by trees & bushes. I will remember the moment of every morning when I was waken up by nature sound of birds & insects, enjoyed a cup of tea in very fresh air. Thanks Lak Tented Camp for a nature-friendly stay with local culture experience!

L’hôtel bénéficie d’un emplacement exceptionnel, avec une vue magnifique. Les tentes sont très confortables et bien conçues, les bungalows ne sont pas très fonctionnels car en duplex, on profite beaucoup moins bien de toute la surface du bungalow, ce serait beaucoup mieux si tout le bungalow se trouve sur un seul étage, en plain-pied. Prix des bungalows trop élevés pour ce que ça vaut ! Il vaut mieux choisir les tentes. Le principal bémol de ce bel hôtel est le restaurant très ordinaire, qui propose une cuisine vietnamienne trop quelconque, un peu occidentalisée, et sans intérêt, à un prix assez élevé pour le pays ! La carte est très limitée pour le petit-déjeuner, et surtout pour le dîner, qui est obligatoire à l’hôtel, car très isolé sur l’île, il n’y a aucun restaurant aux alentours. Dommage, dans un cadre aussi beau, on aurait apprécié une belle soirée autour d’un repas exceptionnel, mais la cuisine n’est pas à la hauteur…trop ordinaire ! Puis, dans la soirée, jusqu’à une heure tardive, on a été très dérangé dans les chambres par des sons très forts de musique techno, comme dans une discothèque, alors qu’on est isolé sur une île superbe en pleine nature, le silence absolu devrait être respecté le soir… Je ne retournerai pas dans cet établissement…

Ein wunderbare Gegend. Das Hotel liegt einsam in einer wunderschönen Gegend. Toller Garten in dem alles wächst, was auch auf den Tisch kommt. Die Lakefront Wooden Bungalow sind super. Schön eingerichtet und mit allem was man braucht. Das Essen (vietnamesisch) ist ausgezeichnet.
