Cat Ba

Cat Ba

Cat Ba is a great alternative to the popular Halong Bay. The island’s landscape is impressive, filled with rugged jungle and limestone cliffs. From Cat Ba you can arrange a one day or overnight tour to the wonderful and uncrowded Lan Ha Bay. Known more as a weekend vacation destination by local Vietnamese, this bay offers the same picturesque limestone cliff islands, but with only half of the tourists.

Top things to do in Cat Ba by thewholeworldornothing.com



Where to stay in Cat Ba

  • LePont Cat Ba Bungalow  boutique hostel



    LePont Cat Ba Bungalow is a cool spot just a quick stroll from Cat Co 3 Beach. The views from the rooms and bungalows are seriously impressive - you get to see the coastline and hills stretching out in front of you. It's pretty awesome to start your day with breakfast on the balcony, soaking in all that scenery.

    The place has a really chill vibe, and it's in a great location. It's close enough to town that you can easily explore, but just far enough out to feel peaceful. The on-site restaurant dishes up some tasty local food, and the bar is perfect for unwinding with a drink in the evening. While some parts of the place might be showing their age a bit, the rooms are comfy and clean. For a relaxed stay in Cat Ba with easy beach access, LePont is definitely worth considering.


  • Cat Ba Green Hotel  budget hotel



    Cat Ba Green Hotel is a cozy spot right in the heart of Cat Ba. The rooms are bright and clean, with comfy beds and all the basics you need for a good stay. What really stands out is the friendly staff - they go above and beyond to help guests with anything from booking tours to giving local tips.

    The hotel has a great location, just a short walk from the beach and close to restaurants and shops. The breakfast gets rave reviews, with plenty of options to fuel up for a day of exploring. There's also a vegan restaurant on-site if you're looking for plant-based meals.

    For the price, Cat Ba Green Hotel offers excellent value. The rooms aren't fancy but they're comfortable and have everything you need. If you want a clean, centrally-located place with helpful staff in Cat Ba, this hotel is a solid choice. Just keep in mind it's a 2-star spot, so don't expect luxury - but for budget travelers, it ticks all the boxes.


  • Cat Ba Central Homestay  homestay



    Cat Ba Central Homestay is a cozy spot tucked away from the main bustle of Cat Ba town. The rooms are spacious, clean and come with comfy beds and mountain views. What really makes this place special though is the super friendly owners. They go out of their way to help guests plan activities and make the most of their stay on the island.

    The homestay has a nice garden area where you can relax after a day of exploring. It's about a 15 minute walk to the beach, so not right on the water but still convenient. Breakfast is simple but tasty and a great way to start the day.

    Overall, Cat Ba Central offers great value in a quiet location. It's perfect if you want a more local experience away from the touristy areas. Just keep in mind it's a bit of a walk to restaurants and bars in the main part of town. But the peaceful vibe and warm hospitality more than make up for it.


  • Luna's House Hostel  hostel



    Luna's House Hostel in Cat Ba is a cool spot right in the middle of town. It's super easy to get around from here - you can walk to restaurants, bars, and even the beach. The place has a really laid-back feel, and the staff are super helpful if you want to plan any trips or activities around the island.

    The rooms are comfy, and you can choose between private rooms with bathrooms or cheaper dorm-style options. The food at their restaurant is pretty good too, with both Vietnamese and Western dishes that won't break the bank. The best part might be the rooftop terrace though. It's got amazing views, and there's even a ping pong table up there. It's a great place to chill out, have a few drinks, and meet other travelers in the evening. If you want to explore more of Cat Ba's beautiful scenery, you can easily rent a motorbike or bicycle right from the hostel.


  • Cat ba Paradise Hotel  luxury hotel



    Cat Ba Paradise Hotel is a great pick if you're looking to soak up the island vibes. Right on the beach, you can step out and feel the sand between your toes in no time. The rooftop pool is a real highlight - perfect for cooling off while taking in some killer views of the surroundings.

    The rooms have all the basics covered, with comfy beds and free WiFi to keep you connected. If you're in the mood for some pampering, hit up the spa for a massage. Food-wise, the restaurant dishes up a mix of local and international flavors. The hotel's spot is pretty convenient too, with popular beaches and plenty of eating options just a stroll away. The staff are super nice and always ready to help out with tour bookings or getting around the island.


  • Phoenix Flower Hotel  medium range hotel



    The Phoenix Flower Hotel in Cat Ba is a great little spot right on the main waterfront street. You can't beat the location - it's perfect for checking out the town and hitting the beach. The rooms are nothing fancy, but they're clean and comfy, and lots of them have really nice views over the bay.

    One of the best things about this place is the staff. They're super friendly and their English is really good, so they can help you out with pretty much anything you need - from renting bikes to booking tours. The free breakfast is pretty basic, but you get to eat with an awesome view of the water, which makes up for it. If you're looking for a central place to stay in Cat Ba that won't cost you an arm and a leg, this hotel is definitely worth checking out.

  • Catba Buffalo Hostel  party hostel



    Catba Buffalo Hostel is a lively spot on Cat Ba Island that's perfect for backpackers and budget travelers looking to meet people. The hostel has a great social vibe with nightly pub crawls and a bar serving up free beer during happy hour. There's also a swimming pool where you can relax with a cocktail - a nice perk you don't always find at hostels.

    The rooms are clean and comfortable, ranging from dorms to private rooms. They serve up a tasty free breakfast each morning to fuel you up for exploring the island. The staff are super friendly and can help arrange tours and motorbike rentals. While it's a bit outside the main town, they offer a shuttle service to make getting around easy.

    Overall, Catba Buffalo Hostel is an awesome place to base yourself for checking out Cat Ba's beaches and national park. The fun atmosphere makes it easy to connect with other travelers over a few beers by the pool. Just keep in mind it caters more to a younger party crowd if that's not your scene.


  • Flamingo Resort  resort



    Flamingo Resort in Cat Ba is a stunning beachfront property with amazing ocean views. The rooms are spacious and comfy, with big balconies perfect for watching the sunset. There's a bunch of pools to choose from, including an infinity pool overlooking the sea - total Instagram heaven.

    The breakfast buffet is massive and has tons of options. I loved hanging out at the beach bar for happy hour cocktails. There's also a nice walking trail along the coast if you want to explore a bit.

    While it can get busy during peak season, the staff are friendly and work hard to keep things running smoothly. Overall, it's a great spot to relax and soak up the beautiful Cat Ba scenery.
