Why choose a pine forest homestay?
Da Lat has over 3.000 ha of green pine forests covering the hills around the city. Homestays nestled inside the pine forest offer fresh air, tranquility, and breathtaking scenery — completely different from hotels in the city center.
Top 8 best homestays to choose
1. Pine Forest Homestay — Ward 7
Located in the middle of a pine hill, Pine Forest features small bungalows made of pine wood, each with its own private balcony overlooking the forest. In the morning, fog covers the entire grounds — a movie-like scene.
2. Treehouse Da Lat — Xuan Truong Commune
Real treehouses! The rooms are built on large pine trees, featuring wooden climbing ladders and views overlooking the lush green valley. Perfect for those who love unique experiences.
3–8. Other options
The Escape Da Lat (Ward 12) with a swimming pool and flower garden; Nomad House (near Truc Lam Zen Monastery) with a backpacker style; Da Lat Wonderland (Ward 5) featuring colorful mural design; Tieng Thong Reo (Tram Hanh Commune) far from the center but absolutely peaceful; The Spot (Ward 3) with the best view overlooking the city; and Cozy Pine (Ward 8) mid-range price with good service.
Notes when booking a homestay
Book at least 2–3 weeks in advance for weekends and peak Tet holidays. Double-check the location — some homestays advertise "pine forest" but are actually far from the forest. Ask in advance whether cooking kitchens and stable Wi-Fi are available.
