10.0“Pick this one, beautiful property, great location!”
+This property was incredible. The location was perfect, right by the beach, places to eat and mini marts. To have your own space to retreat to after a long hot day was something special. We loved the pool and everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom making for peace for the entire family. Lau came in every morning to cook us breakfast and tidy. She was absolutely lovely, respectful and fun. Always happy and friendly.
−Nothing we didn’t like.

10.0“Was an excellent stay, all staff were very helpful and friendly and accommodated our needs! Lovely to have our own pool!”
+Our stay was great! The place was kept very clean by staff, pool was refreshing and the location was nice and quiet. We requested to add bacon to our breakfast and the host accommodated this for us! We had Lâu come and cook every morning and clean along with another lady and they did an amazing job! Also had access to the washing machine to do laundry, which was super helpful!
−Can get hot upstairs on the 3rd floor as only the section with the bedroom is air conditioned where the shower/bathroom and staircase gets very hot. Also need to order a grab to get to restaurants and old town but this was cheap and easy to do!

10.0“Reccommended”
+Overall this is one of our favourite properties and we have visited three times, the only property we return to. The residential area means you make friends, there are three shops just a few yards away and an ATM nearby. Plenty of restaurants and bars a few yards away. The property has true photos and descriptions. The staff, Hanoi, Lau annd Liel (spelling?) are 1st Class.The villa is clean and well serviced. We recommend this villa.

10.0“Beautiful home, great location, amazing experience!”
+The place was beautiful and such great value for money! The house was great for our family with 2 adults and 2 teenagers, everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom, with the parents having their own retreat on the third floor and the living area and pool on the ground floor. An easy 10 minute Grab ride to Old Town, we loved the peacefulness of the area and felt like we were put of the hustle and bustle of the main touristy area. Thuong, our host, was super helpful and nothing was too much trouble, she pointed us to a great massage place just around the corner and arranged bicycle hire for us for the duration of our stay, delivered to the house! Having breakfast cooked each morning by the lovely Lau was such an experience, she is a great cook and such a friendly and bubbly person! Definitely 5 stars, we have already recommended to our friends who are coming to Vietnam next year and I have no doubt we will stay here again when we come back!

10.0“A first class villa.”
+We returned to Shadyside, Maphouse this year for two weeks. This return to a property is one of only a few as this is a first class villa. Everything included in the description is there, and true. When we arrived a new smart TV also arrived. (There are two more upstairs).The plus benefits for us are the clean private pool and the large solarium for sunbathing, listening to music etc, off the upper bedroom. The lovely hosts Thoung and Lau visited everyday and carried out immediately anything needed. A welcome extra is the attractive and safe upmarket neighbourhood - an ATM , a large minimarket and two corner shops only a few yards away. The locals are very friendly and greet and chat freely and offer advice. (Children laugh and play games in the street from time to time - this is a rarity in England, how refreshing!) Very close by is the beach, many restaurants, taxis and shops and, of course, Hoi An Old Town and market are only 10 minutes away by taxi. We can recommend this villa and are highly likely to make a third visit.

10.0“Shadyside 2 a home away from home”
+Everything...the house was fantastic, very homely vibe. It was clean, beautiful and spacious. We had 4 adults and one teenager and we each had our private rooms with private balconies off each room. Loved the feeling of being at home only away on holidays. Thoung and Lau were fantastic, we were met by Thoung when we arrived and our every need was attended to by just a phone call. Excellent service, nothing was too much trouble. Lau was excellent, she came everyday to clean, wash towels, and change beds. Thoung arranged for us, drivers, bicycles and local attractions. I'd recommend anyone who wants to have a more relaxed holiday with the local people to stay here. We all loved it and it was great for family time together ❤️

10.0“Beautiful villa near An Bang Beach. Great for families or long stays.”
+We loved the property. It had everything we needed for our two week stay. The villa worked so well for our family of 5, allowing everyone plenty of space. It was lovely having our own pool and great to have a washing machine and dryer. It was such a treat to have Lau come and cook us breakfast each morning, the food was delicious and she kept the house spotless. Thương checked in on us regularly via WhatsApp and made sure we had everything we needed. The location was great - at the quieter end of A Bang beach, 10 mins walk from the main beach hub but still with plenty of cafes and restaurants within 1 mins walk. It was easy to catch a grab into the old town whenever we wanted. A great place to stay if you’re looking for a bit of extra space near the beach.

9.0“Amazing accommodation for a family looking to relax but also be close to local shops, restaurants, beaches, spas and bea”
+The villa is super modern, clean and overall comfortable for our family with small kids. Thuong the manager was super informative and helpful throughout our entire stay, including helping us organise a doctors visit for our two children. We absolutely loved Lau, our chef, who came in every morning to cook us breakfast and make us coffees. We looked forward to Lau coming in every morning for a delicious breakfast - best tasting banh mi’s!
−Only downfall was there was no air conditioning downstairs - unfortunately we did travel during summer so not sure what’s it’s like in other seasons. But it was too hot for us to hang out downstairs together so we would go to our rooms. We did speak to the manager who was going to communicate the feedback to the owners. Otherwise no other dislikes!
