Room rates range from $20Â-100. Each one, such as Bao Dai Villas, Nha Trang Lodge, Duy Tan, Khatoco or the Vien Dong - to name but a few - offer good services and location.
BudgetGuesthouses or mini-hotels can offer tourists room rates of $5-15. They are particularly located on Biet Thu or Nguyen Thien Thuat streets, now known as “pho tay†- streets of foreigners!

Island resortsKhanh Hoa is not only popular for its beaches and clear azure sea, but also for its islands. Accommodation is now available on some of the islands. Hon Tam offers the best facilities. It's better to book in advance if you are staying a while, because of the limited number of rooms. Accommodation with basic facilities is also available on Hon Ong, Hon Lao Islands. On some islands, there is no electricity and drinking water is still transported from the mainland, but staying on an island is a different experience altogether. It's away from the crowds, you are surrounded by the silence of the ocean and have a chance to interact with local life.
