The Palm Riverside Boutique (Also the Palm River Boutique on Grab), is a lovely hotel with excellent south facing balconies (on the top 3rd/4th floors) that overlook the river. Lily is wonderful, incredibly kind! From preparing us an early breakfast to take away with us for our flight (because we left before breakfast would start), to daily fresh breakfasts you order the day prior, to even changing our sheets one extra time after one of our children had an upset stomach and threw up on the bed after an afternoon nap. The pool is small, and beautiful, with lovely seating around it and a dining area that is right next to it as well. The overall facility has a beautiful architecture that mixes indoor and outdoor space, and collapsable glass door/walls that allow for the entire balcony to be open to the living space (in the top floor room). Location wise, they have an excellent map that highlights places to eat within 500m of the hotel, they offer bicicycles free for patrons to use (one bike even has a child's seat, and others have foot pegs for doubling up), they offer assistance with booking cars/boat trips/flights/airport pickups etc. etc., and they are about 700m south of the public beach!
Sidenote:
- The facility does NOT have an elevator, so if you are mobility impaired, be sure to request a 1st floor booking!
- Because there's no elevator, there is a very cool winch they have on the top floor to bring luggage up/down to the desired floor! My children (and I), were delighted with using/watching it being used!
- The public beach to the north is fairly priavte/secluded, so there aren't a lot of shops/vendors at the beach. Make plans to bring snacks/food or to go somewhere a bit farther (200m ish) from the beach to get your food/drinks!
- We *really* loved eating at the An Gia house restaurant about 500m from the Palm Boutique. Great food, incredible space, family owned.
