Unbelievable Cam Pha Getaway: Asahi Luxstay Luxcity 2BR!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into the Unbelievable Cam Pha Getaway: Asahi Luxstay Luxcity 2BR! and let me tell you, it's… well, it's definitely something. Let's get messy with it. Prepare for a review that's less polished travel brochure and more "me rambling in a comfy robe after a questionable amount of the minibar."
Let's Talk Access (and My Struggles):
First, the basic bits. The website says "Accessibility is a priority," but honestly, I’m a bit of a klutz without any mobility issues. Finding the actual entrance felt like a scavenger hunt. It turns out there's a back entrance that’s… less welcoming, but I managed! The elevator situation felt solid. Bonus points for the folks who designed this place. The ramps are easy on the eyes, and the hallways are wide.
Internet and Wi-Fi: Because We Live Online
Okay, the internet. Essential. I’m a digital nomad, a caffeine addict, and a chronic over-sharer. This is make-or-break for me. The Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! is a HUGE win. Thank the heavens. I needed to upload a particularly embarrassing TikTok dance, and the connection held strong. Public areas also had Wi-Fi – which is cool, but who wants to be public when they're in plush bathrobes, yeah?
Cleanliness and Safety: Are We Surviving the Apocalypse?
Alright, let’s be real: travel in 2024, right? The "Cleanliness and Safety" section on the hotel description is, shall we say, extensive. Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer EVERYWHERE – you feel like you're entering a hospital, and this is fine. All these things are good. They make you feel safe. I’m pretty sure every surface had been scrubbed within an inch of its life. They also have Staff trained in safety protocol, which is comforting. I saw one of the staff using the cleaning supplies.
The Good Stuff: Things to Do (and How to Relax Like a Boss)
Okay, now we’re talking! The Luxcity boasts a decent array of things to do. The Swimming pool [outdoor] is gorgeous, with a Pool with a view. I spent a solid afternoon there, sipping a questionable cocktail and pretending I was a mermaid. The fitness center is present, and has a good variety of equipment. They have a Spa/sauna, which I, of course, had to investigate. I did the Body scrub and Massage. I left feeling like a freshly peeled potato. The Spa was a haven. You should go. Seriously. The Foot bath was also nice.
Dining and Drinking: Fueling the Fun
Okay, food. Crucial. The A la carte in restaurant is available, but it didn't blow me away. Asian and International cuisines are available. The Bar is decent, and you can order a snack at the Snack bar. The Poolside bar is a great place for a drink. They also have Room service [24-hour], thank heavens. The world is in a never-ending state of supply chain issues, and you will want something delivered at 3 a.m.
Services and Conveniences: The Little Things That Make a Difference
Here's where the Luxcity really shines . Daily housekeeping is clutch. Concierge? Fantastic. They helped me navigate a truly baffling public transport system to get back from the spa (see, even I get lost). Also the Laundry service is a real saving grace. The Cash withdrawal facilities are on hand.
For the Kids (and the Kid in You):
Okay, I didn't have a gaggle of little ones in tow, but the fact that they have Babysitting service, Family/child friendly facilities, and Kids meal options is great if you do . Seeing how friendly the reception staff was, I bet they'll be ready to help the kids.
The Room: My Little Haven (Let's Get Specific!)
Okay, the 2BR. Gorgeous. Air conditioning is a must. The Bathrobes are divine. Blackout curtains? Life-saving for a chronic over-sleeper like myself. The Coffee/tea maker is a necessity in the morning. The Desk almost made me want to work. Free bottled water is a godsend. The In-room safe box made me feel secure, even if I only used it to hide my candy. So much to say. Non-smoking. Safe. Slippers. Soundproofing! Wake-up service. Wi-Fi [free]. And the extra long bed? Bliss.
The Negatives (Because We're Real):
I'm not going to lie, my room’s view wasn't spectacular. More like… a decent view, but not enough Instagram material. Also, the breakfast buffet – while extensive – was a bit… overwhelming. So many options. I ate way too much.

Escape to Paradise: Hayano Stay Tianye Family Homestay in Tainan
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into a Cam Pha adventure at the gloriously named Asahi Luxstay – Luxcity, 2BR. This isn't your clinical itinerary, folks. This is my brain trying to organize a trip. Prepare for chaos.
Subject: Cam Pha Craziness - A "Mostly" Coherent Adventure
Day 1: Arrival and Existential Hotel Room Crisis
- 14:00 - 15:00: Arrival at Noi Bai International Airport (HAN), Hanoi: Oh boy, Vietnam! Feeling a mix of jet-lagged giddiness and the lingering fear I packed too many shoes. Getting a pre-booked taxi, praying the driver understands my, uh, unique pronunciation of "Cam Pha." I can already hear my inner monologue screaming, "Did I remember the mosquito repellent?!?"
- 15:00 - 19:00: Taxi to Cam Pha: Long drive, windows down – the smell of pho and exhaust fumes, the soundtrack of honking motorbikes, absolute bliss. The scenery whips by, rice paddies, bustling towns, a guy herding water buffalo like it's no big deal.
- 19:00 - 20:00: Check-in at Asahi Luxstay – Luxcity, 2BR: Okay, this is it. The moment of truth. Did the photos lie? (They often do). Nope! It's actually pretty darn nice. The 2BR boasts a view of something…maybe the port? Who am I kidding, I’ll probably be staring at my phone most of the time.
- 20:00 - 21:00: First Impressions (and Apartment Tour): Okay, the apartment is clean. So clean it feels… sterile? I’m already resisting the urge to unpack (I always unpack too fast. Always regret the mess later.) This place has Wi-Fi, so, crisis averted. There's a little balcony! I'm already picturing myself sipping iced coffee while watching the world go by. (I already know I will do this once then forget I have a balcony. Sigh.)
- 21:00 - 22:00: Dinner Disaster (maybe): Okay, time to unleash the inner food critic… or maybe just find some food. Google Maps is my friend. I'm thinking street food. Something spicy, hopefully. Or maybe I just sit in the hotel room and order pizza? (I'm already considering pizza.)
Day 2: Beach, Boats, and Bitter Disappointments
- 08:00 - 09:00: Wake-up and Coffee! (Essential. Actually, make that two coffees). Balcony time! The world looks… murky. Is that smog? Is that a boat? Is that a bird? Who cares! Coffee is life.
- 09:00 - 12:00: Beach Time (Bai Chay Beach, Ha Long Bay): Okay, so I've decided that I NEED to get out of the apartment. Beach time! Hop in a taxi, head towards Bai Chay Beach. It seems far… very very far. Praying for a decent beach. I'm picturing turquoise water, white sand, maybe some coconuts. I've heard the sand is more… beige. Hmm.
- The Reality Bites: The beach… It's fine. It's… busy. The water isn't quite turquoise or even blue. It's more like… murky green. And the sand? Definitely beige. And there's a lot of trash (sigh). Okay, deep breaths. I'm not going to let a slightly disappointing beach ruin my day.
- 12:00 - 13:00: Street food lunch near Bai Chay Beach I'm gonna try to look for some authentic street food, even if the beach let me down. Hopefully it will be better than beach.
- 13:00 - 17:00: Halong Bay Cruise (Optional - might not do it): This is where things get interesting. I'm weighing the Halong Bay cruise. It's supposed to be amazing. But the cost! The crowds! I've heard horror stories of overcrowded boats and… wait for it… plastic waste. Oh, the irony… My inner pessimist is screaming "stay in the apartment, watch Netflix, and order pizza!" But my adventurous side, the one fueled by excessive caffeine, is whispering, "Go! See the beauty! Risk it!"
- If Cruise is a Go: Ok. Taking an organized (read: expensive) tour. Crossing fingers for good weather and a memorable experience. This is where the itinerary gets fuzzy. I imagine a chaotic boat, stunning scenery, too many tour groups, and me, desperately trying to enjoy the views and take photos that don't look like everyone else's.
- 17:00 - 19:00: Travel Time back from Ha Long Bay: Depends on what I do, if I take the cruise, might not get back until much later.
- 19:00 - 21:00: Dinner (and possibly wallowing in the apartment): Dinner is happening. Pizza is an actual possibility. Or maybe… maybe I'll find some amazing seafood at a local restaurant. (Fingers crossed!)
- 21:00 - Late: Post-Beach Debrief and Journaling: Time to reflect on the day. Did I survive the beach? Did I see Halong Bay? Did I eat amazing food? Did I remember the mosquito repellent? (Spoiler alert: probably not.) Journaling and maybe getting a little wine.
Day 3: The "Anything Could Happen" Day
- 09:00 - 10:00: Late Wake-up: The Day Begins… Again. Okay, sleep is nice. I think I needed that.
- 10:00 - 12:00: Trying to find some local markets near Asahi Luxstay, Luxcity Cẩm Phả Maybe I can look for local ingredients and make myself some breakfast at home.
- 12:00 - 14:00: Trying to eat some local food. Ask the hotel for recommendations. Local food is nice.
- 14:00 - 17:00: Exploring the City: Okay, so, Cam Pha. What is there to do? No idea. Let's wander. Let's use Google Maps like a lost puppy and follow the "things to see" suggestions. It will probably involve temples, local life, and me, looking hopelessly lost and completely loving it. I'm hoping to see some real life, the heart of the area!
- 17:00 - 21:00: Dinner, Drinks, and The Eternal Search for Good Wi-Fi: Tonight, I might venture out to find nightlife. (Might). Or I might just order room service because, let's be honest, I'm a creature of comfort deep down. And good Wi-Fi is a non-negotiable.
- 21:00 - whenever: Pack, panic, and prepare for departure: Oh god, I have to leave soon? Where did the time go? Time to stuff everything back into my suitcase. (Good luck to me).
Day 4: Farewell, Vietnam (Until Next Time)
- 07:00 - 08:00: Last coffee, last balcony moment, and a desperate attempt to memorize every single view: Saying goodbye to the apartment.
- 08:00 - 09:00: Check-out and taxi to Hanoi Airport: Tears. (Okay, maybe not). But definitely a pang of sadness.
- 09:00 - 12:00: Departure, Reflecting On this Craziness: Time to go home.
Final Ramblings:
This itinerary isn't perfect. It’s probably going to shift. I'm going to get lost. I'm probably going to eat more than I should. I'm definitely going to be sunburned. But, hey, that’s part of the fun, right? Vietnam, you've got me. Now, to remember where I put my passport… Wish me luck!

Unbelievable Cam Pha Getaway: Asahi Luxstay Luxcity 2BR! - (Or, My Brain's a Smoothie After This One)
Okay, spill it. Is this Asahi Luxstay Luxcity place in Cam Pha actually "luxurious"? Because, let's be honest, "luxury" is a subjective beast.
Alright, alright, don't get your sequins in a twist. "Luxurious" is definitely a… *choice* of words. I wouldn't say "luxurious" in the sense of a gold-plated toilet seat (though, wouldn't that have been something after the long drive?). What it *is* is definitely a step above what I’m used to. Think IKEA with a touch of… Vietnamese charm? It was cleaner than my own apartment, which is already a win. The two bedrooms were a lifesaver for me and the travel companion. I mean, who wants to listen to *their* snoring all night?
But luxury? Hmmm. Let's just say the coffee maker looked like it had seen better days, and the air conditioning unit sounded like a particularly grumpy bee. Still, the view from the balcony was seriously breathtaking. I mean, you could easily picture yourself as a Bond villain planning world domination. (Okay, maybe that's just me). So, yeah, "luxury-ish" is probably the most accurate description.
Two bedrooms! Did you *actually* manage to use them independently, or did you end up crammed in one room fighting over the remote?
Oh, believe me, we *utilized* the two bedrooms. It was probably the *best* feature, to be frank. The travel buddy is a *night owl*, and me? I'm a total zombie by 9 pm. So, peace, quiet, and personal space were readily available. The beds were... well, they were beds! Don't expect cloud-like fluffiness -- it was more like… adequate. But hey, after all that trekking around, you almost didn't notice. No remote-wars. Only the gentle hum of my snoring from my own bedroom.
The balcony! Tell me about this mythical balcony. Was it, you know, *balcony-worthy*?
The balcony... THE BALCONY. Okay, taking a deep breath. It was the highlight, hands down. The view was incredible. I mean, the kind of view that makes you think, "Yep, this is why I left my couch." Imagine a vast expanse of… well, a lot of things! I was pretty sure there was the bay, the other buildings, greenery, and an awful lot of sky so that when the sun set, it was a truly majestic pink-orange-purple fire show. It's the perfect place to sip your morning coffee and wonder how you ended up there or to have a quiet moment, to watch the world go by… while, you know you can also think about all the emails you have to answer. The space itself wasn't huge, but enough for a table and chairs, and plenty of room to just "exist." That sounds better than it is.
Was the kitchen any good? Because I'm picturing instant noodles and a dodgy microwave.
Okay, so the kitchen. Don't get *too* excited. It was… functional. I think. There were the basics: a fridge, a hob which I believe could be used to cook (I did not test it), and some questionable cutlery. I *did* attempt to make coffee one morning, which nearly ended in disaster. I think I used the wrong type of coffee. Or the wrong amount of coffee. Suffice it to say, the result wasn't pretty. The kitchen felt a bit… forgotten, like it gets minimal use. It was clean enough, but definitely not the place you'd want to whip up a five-course meal. Instant noodles? Yeah, it’s a good bet.
But you know what? No one wants to cook on vacation, right? The best part? The *massive* supermarket nearby. I was in my element. I grabbed a bag of Rambutans and some other local fruits and snacks and I just enjoyed it on the balcony when I wasn't eating instant noodles and not using the kitchen.
How was the location? Is it easy to get around?
Location, location, location, right? Well, Cam Pha is… well, it’s Cam Pha. In reality? It’s not exactly in the middle of the action if action means, you know, the tourist-y stuff. Finding taxis can be a bit of a scavenger hunt unless you have Grab or something (which I didn't). We ended up walking… a lot. But, hey, at least you get your steps in. The plus side is that it’s quiet. Really, really quiet. And the views – still epic. So, it depends on what you’re looking for. Peace and serenity? Score! Constant access to bustling nightlife? Maybe not so much.
The absolute worst part? The ONE thing that made you want to run screaming into the hills?
Okay, okay. Deep breath. Here it is. No, the coffee incident wasn’t the worst. (Though it was *really* close). The worst part? The elevators. I swear, they were the slowest elevators on the planet. They moved at a pace that made watching paint dry seem exciting. Waiting felt like an eternity. And if you were on a time crunch? Forget about it. I think I aged a year waiting for those things. One time, I swear I heard them sighing when they opened the doors. That's it. The elevators were the devil.
Would you go back? Be honest!
Hmm... okay. With caveats? Yes. The balcony view nearly makes up for all the elevator-induced trauma. It's the perfect spot to rest, to contemplate life, to escape or to just to have an existential crisis because, let's be honest, you've got the time. I would probably return. Or at least, I'd *consider* it. I still have my memories of the balcony and the amazing food. So yeah - I probably would go back. Maybe. Just as long as I'm prepared for that elevator. I'd still advise everyone who goes there to prepare to take the stairs. That might be quicker!
