Kindly note that the glassware provided is not tempered and is fragile; please handle with care or consider bringing your own. The website accessible through the QR Code in your room may not be entirely accurate, exhibiting a poor design as I observed discrepancies during my stay in February, with events from July still visible. Additionally, be cautious of potential inaccuracies in the room service prices listed on the website; a slight deviation may occur. If precision is crucial to you, contacting the Ninh Binh tourist hotline is recommended instead of reaching out to the manager. Lastly, be mindful of mosquitoes and other tropical insects during your stay.

Great place to stay
Emeralda resort is an amazing place. Feel relaxed durimg my stay and the place is beautiful and clean as well. Just one thing that I sent them email to possibly request an upgraded room since Im a Gold member. But there was no reply until I visited there neither was upgraded even though there was not many guest without any notice. It would be nice if there was any explanation. Rather than, everythint was.perfect.

Good facilities: indoor pool etc. Room was fine but nothing special. Mixed quality breakfast. First the staff seemed friendly and flexible. Then we asked for a chair for the balcony. The only way to get the chair would be to pay for a room upgrade. Anyways they were burning trash outside so no need for the chair after all. Also some dust from the nearby factories. Overpriced tours and restaurant. Luckily some local options available. So overall we were expecting more and Emeralda did not compare very well to the other resorts we stayed during our trip.

Wonderful resort, terrible pool
The nature is amazing in the resort. I loved all the greens! The food was amazing too. It was fresh with lots of healthy options. However, the condition of the pool was terrifying. There were water insects in the pool including mosquito larvae. I think you should use chlorine at least. Also, there were ill-mannered guests, but no one stopped them ex) Smoking by the pool and throwing cigarette ash and buds on the floor, swimming in underwear and so on.

Amazing resort in a quaint setting
We stayed at Emeralda Resort for 4D/3N in Aug19. We had a family duplex and a delux double room. The rooms are well sized but the property is old and room amenities are quite basic. However the overall resort setting is extremely quite and peaceful and one gets the feel of being nestled in a quint hinterland surrounded by mountains and paddy fields. The quite setting of the place, resort facilities like pool side bar, indoor and outdoor swimming pool, mini golf for kids and multicuisine Organic Restaurant more than makes up any deficiency in the room upkeep and amenities. We organised our airport transfers and all tours through the resort and the service was of high standards. Our tour guide Mr. Thong was extremely courteous, hospitable and had an eye for every detail needed to make it a wonderful experience. We would strongly recommend him for anyone needing guided tours in English. The main tourist spots like TrangAn, Mua Cave, Tam Coc are within 25min driving distance and there is Van Long Nature reserve within 5min for a great cycling tour or boat ride. Overall this place is ideal for families looking for a quaint and peaceful vacation in an idyllic resort setting full of natural beauty and expansive landscape within couple hours of driving from Hanoi

Loved the area (Ninh Binh is beautiful) - it’s the only resort of this style in the area. Rooms are spacious and private, but could do with a “spruce” up, especially the bathroom. The private tour options were great, but expensive - maybe the option of cheaper group tours should be an option too

The resort is beautiful, the gardens are amazing and the rooms are very comfortable and spacious. Breakfast is 10/10 and the food at the restaurant is delicious. There is a wine bar but it wasn’t open which was a shame and the mini golf green hasn’t been swept or maintained, heaps of leaves so was hard to play. I also didn’t like the fact you have to pay to use the resorts bikes, thought they’d be available to guests for free. All in all we had a really lovely comfortable stay and I’d definitely recommend to others.
