Ivy Villa
Description
Ivy Villa is a small budget-friendly hotel that punches well above its price point, a short walk from the old town but far enough to skip the noise and crowds. Rooms are compact but clean, modern, and well kept, closer to a smart Travelodge than a typical guesthouse. It suits couples and travelers who want comfort without paying old-town premiums.
Breakfast is included and you choose your own menu each morning, with a good spread and fresh food rather than a stale buffet. There’s a pool on site and free bicycles to borrow for getting into town. Reception runs 24/7 and the manager, Nam, is reachable on WhatsApp for anything from tour bookings to restaurant tips, so lean on him for local recommendations rather than guessing on your own.
This is a place that competes on service and value rather than luxury, so anyone chasing a five-star pool scene or a sprawling resort should look elsewhere. Book direct or early if you’re set on a pool-view room, and ask Nam about nearby Ylang Spa while you’re there.
