Stay
La Beach House: Homestay right by the sea, with a beautiful view to watch the sunrise, the price is 550,000 VND / room. The fish market meets in the early morning also close to the homestay so it is very convenient to feel the local life. But for those who are afraid of smells, it can be a minus.
Po' House: This homestay is nothing special but a very central location, walking only a few minutes to the sea, the square and a lot of food, cafes, supermarkets around. Room rate $300,000. The host is also very friendly and hospitable.
Osix Resort: This is the 3-star resort and the most green in Quy Nhon that I know, there is a beautiful small saltwater swimming pool, the bar is located right by the sea. The apartment I booked is a sea-facing bungalow, priced at 1,300,000 VND.
Eating
Eo Wind Area, Nhon Ly: Hoang Thao restaurant is the address introduced by homestay, fresh, delicious food, reasonable price with menus of all kinds from rice dishes to seafood - hot pot grills.
City center: In addition to the snack streets such as Phan Boi Chau, Ngo Van Chu, Huyen Tran Princess, I chose Gia Vy Pancake Restaurant (14 Dien Hong) to enjoy Quy Nhon specialties and Hometown restaurant (125 Tiger Tarpau) to eat family rice dishes, suitable for young children. At breakfast, I enjoy fish noodles at Ngoc Lien restaurant because it is very suitable, although eating the same dish but do not feel bored.
Hon Dry Area, Nhon Hai: Coco Camp is a place you must definitely go in Quy Nhon, whether just to enjoy lunch or drink a glass of soft drink. It also serves a multi-course menu, which suits the taste at an affordable price.
Cost
The total cost of my family's trip is about 12,000,000 VND, including air tickets, 5 taxi trips, dining, homestay rooms to resorts, tickets to visit the points, Ky Co tour costs 350,000 VND / person (including shuttle, lunch), Hon Dry tour costs 180,000 VND (excluding meals, pick-up at Coco Camp).
Note:
Homestay usually does not have breakfast so must book in advance or eat out
The journeys over 20 km I choose taxis to avoid the sun. With a short distance in the city, I rented a motorbike at homestay for VND120,000 per day to actively move.
Quy Nhon in March is quite empty, but already very sunny, so choose to move in the early morning or late afternoon.
La Beach House, Ky Co, Nhon Hai are very great places, and you can skip The Great Love Cup because of the steep climbing ramp, Phuong Mai sand dunes because of the sun, not suitable when traveling with children.
