Description

Gio Homestay & Bungalow Sapa is a holiday home in Sa Pa town, with chalet units offering lake and mountain views. Its detached accommodation combines private bathrooms with a garden, sun terrace and on-site restaurant, giving couples and small groups a choice of compact stays or a larger layout.

The chalets measure 20 or 30 m² and sleep up to two or four people, depending on the unit. Room features include balconies or terraces, soundproofing, electric kettles and, in some units, a fireplace, sofa or outdoor dining area. A bath is available in selected chalets, while the room layouts also include walk-in showers and free toiletries. The restaurant, bar, coffee house and snack bar provide several on-site dining options, and a shared kitchen is available. Free private parking and free WiFi are provided; the airport shuttle is paid. Pets are accepted on request without an extra charge. With Sa Pa Lake and the town's sights nearby, the property suits travellers who want chalet-style accommodation within Sa Pa rather than a stay in the surrounding villages.
