Green Bamboo Lodge Resort

Be realistic and do not expect much. The river is nice tho.

I contacted the lodge in late November to book for 2-3 nights a week in advance, and knowing from travel blogs how difficult getting to Cat Tien National Park can be, I asked them for travel/transport advice. The response? Dead silence. Consequently, I missed out on Cat Tien NP unfortunately (but fortunately Green Bamboo Lodge), as there were too many unknowns about getting there and away.

We stayed at the Green Bamboo lodge for 5 nights, so I can say we have truly been in this lodge. It is a good place to stay while you are exploring Cat-Tien National Park. What I really liked about the accomodation is that it really gives you a wild feeling, there are some geckos walking around on the walls outside and inside your accomodation, and with heavy rains, you can find the occasional frog in your bathroom. A true jungle experience! The view on the river is amazing, we spotted 5 species of kingfisher just from the balcony of our lodge and we also saw some hornbills and parrots crossing the river. The swimming pool of the place is rather unique, as it consist of several pools connected by water flowing from the highest to the lowest pool. In the lowest pool, you are still pretty high up and you have a nice view on the jungle from there too. The lodges were clean for jungle lodges, with that I mean that you will encounter the occassional insect or small animal in your room, but once again, this is a jungle resort, do not go here if you cannot handle this. The restaurant of the lodge is great and serves a good breakfast and has an elaborate dinner menu. We ate here almost everyday and enjoyed the view on the park from the rivers edge. The personnel speaks English and is really friendly. All in All a good place to stay for your Cat-Tien Jungle experiences.

Friendly and helpful staff. Great food. Amazing location. Sitting in the hammock by the river made me fall in love with Vietnam. Stylish and clean room - my only grumble would be that there was a slight gap in my toilet window so moquiteos could get in. Really close to Cat Tien National Park entrance so loads to do in the local area. Brilliant swimming pool. Yes, definitely stay here in Nam Cat Tien. Hope you hear some gibbons! Thank you to all of the staff for putting up with our awful Vietnamese ❤️

The staff at Green Bamboo Lodge were very kind and generous. My partner and I fell sick just before arriving and the staff really helped us out - they went into town to get medication for us and kept checking in to see if we were ok. It's a really lovely location and very well priced. Highly recommend.

Room and restaurant right next to the river. The view from our balcony is very peaceful. Mosquito is annoying but youre in a jungle so yeh.. Very easy to get to the national park ( just cross the river). Highly recommended for backpackers like us
