Maha Mangala Zen Garden & Residence

This place is really nice, modern facilities. Very nice kitchen and utensils. Every room had a TV. Living room is comfortable. Very good value for money if you are a group. The breakfast is super good! The beach is a short walk.

the apartment was spacious, clean, the cleaning service was excellent, the staff was nice, transportation to breakfast (since they were not close to the accommodation) was provided

I ordered a room with a balcony so that we could also spend time on it, we got a piece of space in the air suitable only for a smoker for a quick cigarette. we had paid for breakfast in advance, but we didn't even go for it the next day. it was not a buffet breakfast but a selection of food to order and no meat products like ham for example

The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. It felt like we were living in a hotel. I recommended my family & friends who are looking for a hotel ambience room but for a family comfortable. Was above my expectation. They have smart TV, so we could watch YouTube / Netflix!...that a big plus point from us. The staff was responsive & friendly & they make an effort to make your stay comfortable.Not to forget, their vegetarian food served in their restaurant is tasty! I'm amazedThere isn't any eatery or spa outside the hotel. We always took Grab to town. Not to worry..grab drivers are just waiting outside, and 2 mins they are at the lobby. It's only about 10-15 mins drive.The apartment/ residence is not literally beachfront. You need to walk about 10 mins to the beach front. It's within the ocean villa gates & guarded area. Sadly, we went during the monsoon season, and the beach was off-limits.The pool is big & clean. Well maintained.All in all... my family enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back.

The reception and rooms are very nicely decorated in a mix of Bali and Japanese style. It is extremly clean and everything is well maintained. The best however is the food. You need to book with breakfast, as this is extraordinary. We also had dinner, which was the best food we had for years.

The rooms are not directly at the beach, which you don‘t really see on booking.com, where only the main building with reception is located at the beach. However, this is only a 5-10 minute walk and the staff would also drive you there, if it is requested.

The experience was great since check in. The management was very accommodating and answered to all our questions and requests within a day. Th room service crew is friendly and attentive. Room size is just right for our group. AC is cold. Shower is hot. The small and practical kitchen allowed us to prepare meals when we didn't feel like eating out or waiting for delivery.

Some mosquitoes found their way in and stayed with us without paying rent.

The apartment has a lean and calm design. Washing machine and kitchenwares are included. Everything is quite spacious (we have a two-bedroom apartment for 2 adults, a family trip) and clean. All the bedrooms have windows. The apartment has a back view to the main swimming pool. They provide us with lots of towels, one for bathing and one for using while at the swimming pool or at the beach. I found this very thoughtful because sand gets into the towels most of the time. The location of the resort is close to a local wet market. We were able to cook for most of time and to try many delicious local food.

Weak and limited access to wifi (only 2 to 3 devices get access to wifi). Had to walk for 10 mins to get to the beach, which was not problem, but it would be even better if closer to the beach. Takes about 30 mins each to get to centre Da Nang and Hoi An. The air conditionings were not stable, sometimes it ran very strong and other time it didn’t work at alll.

Staff, food, room, pool is very nice

The staff, especially Ngoc Tu, were excellent and committed to making my stay as pleasant as possible. The apartment room was very comfortable and the decor pleasing to the eye.

Location is a little out of the city, but can easily be addressed with Grab.

Far from the city, which we love so we can stay away from the noise. The mood and tone of the place definitely gave us a feeling of Zen and get rids of all the dirt of life. It's even like a place of meditation. It has a very distinct concept, staffs are super friendly and well-trained, professional. We're completely pleased with our stay.

It has a step in front of the door, and sometimes we hit that sometimes. Maybe next time, try to stick a warning "mind your step", etc... they will need more buggy cars when they have more clients.

We like the beach is beautiful and food, PEOPLE who wants privacy is a good place to stay..

Ms TU , she is very good in assisting us and everything what we need, she follow up all.

Breakfast, room, pool,

Barking dogs

If you like insect bites, this is the place for you

If you like to share a place with cockroaches and other assorted critters, this is the place for you.The description and photos are very different from reality. We arrived at 18:00. The hotline was not answered, only found the place with luck. The ‘reception’ was a rickety table in an apartment. Not an inviting arrival at a “resort”. The photos give the impression of small villas or similar while actually the apartment (advertised as ground floor) was on the 5th floor of a 10 story building, next to a busy road. One can easily hear your neighbors conversations.The apartments are moldy smelling, the toilets sometimes worse with visible damage due to humidity.The restaurant does not have the “ayurvedic’ menu advertised. There are nearly no vegetarian choices – in a “Zen” resort.The morning meditation did not existSome of the facilities like the spacious library do not exist or are closedThe bar is deserted, not sure if evening drinks are served.Breakfast is overpriced, but as the ‘resort’ is in the middle of nowhere, you have no other choice. The espresso machine is out of use and the ‘juices’ are more like sugary water.Transportation service means a taxi is called.Billing the restaurant bills or spa bills to the room not possible. Everything requires cash or credit card payment.We had a giant cockroach in our bedroom. Reaction was not a “sorry”, “we will clean up immediately” or offering a different room. There was only the question “where” it was.Biting insects in our bed. The staff’s reaction was only to point out that insects are normal.The windows had no mosquito screens.On departure staff came to our apartment to count the items. One beach towel and one plastic key card were missing and they wanted to charge for that (+13US$ for a broken ceramic plate, 4 US$ for a key card).There is no professional hotel management. It seems that the management of a gated community decided to rent out a few empty rooms. The most disappointing holidays of our life

All staff are so nice. The location is not closed to downtown, and that’s what we want. We went to the private beach, it was really beautiful.

It is far away from market, tourist spots. But this is also why we enjoyed the stay, very quiet and calm.

The rooms are marvellous. Absolutely a delight to stay in. I also liked the fact that the beach is so accessible.

The property is very isolated from the attractions in both Da nang and Hoi An. It's more suited to a longer stay but if you're there for two - three nights you might not enjoy it much since you'll spend time traveling to both the cities.

Not much ..room was a good size

Location ...cost and didnt speak much English..so language barrier a problem

The staff was helpful and quick to help our requests (extra blanket, borrowed cash to pay a taxi), though for some reason they wouldn’t help posting some postcards on our departure.

The WiFi was slow and on a particular day didn’t work.The pictures are a bit misleading, it’s not a beachfront location. The apartments are on a building in a huge complex with access to the beach, however this building is right at the entrance near the road. The beach is not far, but if you are expecting beach view, this is not the place. On the other hand the beach is not well maintained and quite dirty. This is not to blame on the property, unfortunately the whole strip of beach around is like that.

The staff here was exceptional, they met all of our requests. Great facilities and amenities. perfect for vacation and relaxing.

Probably just the location but it wasn’t too expensive taking a cab around places.

Comfortable great apartment plenty of room. 2bdm 2 bathrooms lovely pool and gym. A short grab ride (uber) to town cheap as.

No coffee mugs

Nice surroundings, very friendly staff, easy access to the beach. Big airy rooms, good food, and comfortable beds. Beautiful swimming pools.

It's a little far from anything else, so you're a bit marooned, but it's perfect if you want to leave the urban sprawl of Da Nang behind.

The beach is not too far and quite beautiful.

The staff are friendly but the number of staff is limited. We expect to stay in a resort area with ready services however it was like a staying in an apartment. The area named Ocean outsite not Mangala Zen Garden and it was quite confused when we first came. The restaurant did not open all time and only served limited food during breakfast hours. The area was situated together with permanent/long term residents area, there were people taking dogs around the basement. In general we feel like what we received is just an equipped room, we did not feel like we received additional services that make a leisure experience. Next time if we come back we would prefer booking in another places/hotels/resorts nearby.
