Vietnam Tours

The main attraction Sapa is to visit the hill tribe's villages. There are many unique opportunity to experience the hidden trails, breathtaking sceneries, unmixed culture and way of life ... but without the availability of basic accommodation, you can either sleeping in local houses, or in tents outside the village. Here began our idea of building the ecolodge.

Topas Ecolodge is now the only one of its kind in Vietnam. It has a perfect location - situated atop two cone formed hills, set deep in the spectacular Sapa valley of Northern Vietnam.

Topas Ecolodge is based on ecological principles. We use solar technology to supply every lodge with energy. We have implemented a wastewater facility to avoid pollution of the local area. All this is designed to ensure that the Lodge has a minimum impact on the surrounding environment. We employ local people and use local products and goods, in order to bring economic benefits to the local community.

The newly developed Topas Ecology is located 18 km from Sapa, deep in the Hoang Lien Mountains. The 25 lodges overlook the entire valley with the ethnic minority villages of Ban Ho and Than Phu 400 altitude meters below you. Code words for our little place are simplicity, quality and character.

The ecology consists of 25 individual lodges placed in a circle around the hills. From the lodge there are breathtaking views across the scenic valleys below, which are home to villages of the Tay and Red Dao minorities.

Restaurants

The restaurant is an old traditional Tay stilt house. It was carefully moved piece by piece from its original site and reassembled at the lodge with more equipment to meet modern standards while respecting its original and historical qualities. All the meals are served in the lodge's restaurant. The food is served either as a set menu or buffet. It's all Vietnamese food cooked and served by minority people from the surrounding villages.
