The rules that catch guests out
24 Dec · 31 Dec · 30 Aug · 7 Feb
Holiday gala dinners
Booking listings show gala-dinner charges per adult and child on Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve, 30 August and 7 February. They do not say whether the dinner is compulsory for guests staying that night, so ask before you book those dates.
Plan for it if you are staying over Christmas, New Year or Tet. Ignore it if your dates avoid those nights.

Breakfast is not always included
Some rates include the buffet and some do not. Adding it at the resort costs 534,000 VND per adult and 320,000 VND per child aged 6–11, so for a family a breakfast-inclusive rate is usually worth comparing.
Choose breakfast if you will eat at the resort every morning. Skip it if you plan early starts for day trips.

Under 6 free · Extra beds charged
Children and extra beds
A young child sharing the existing bed usually stays free and children up to 5 eat breakfast free. Older children need an extra bed, charged per night at a price that differs between booking sites, so confirm the figure in writing.
Good to know if you are two adults with two children. Easier option: the 86 m² two-bedroom family bungalow.

What to do before you arrive
01
Put requests in the booking
Cots, connecting rooms, a renovated room or a room away from the construction side are all on request. Add them to the booking and confirm by email.
02
Arrange the transfer 48 hours ahead
The resort shuttle and private car both need about two days’ notice. Give the driver the current address: Ho Tram commune, Ho Chi Minh City.
03
Pack for the garden and the sea
Insect repellent, light long sleeves for dusk, reef-safe sun cream and some cash in dong for markets and taxis.
Honest note
Several key prices, including extra beds and the shuttle fare, are not published consistently, and the gala-dinner rules are unclear. Get the numbers in writing from the hotel before you travel over holidays.
More questions before you book Ho Tram Beach Boutique
Does Ho Tram Beach Boutique take a deposit at check-in?
Some listings say a card or cash deposit may be taken at check-in for incidentals, and others say no deposit is needed. Expect to show the card used for the booking and your passport. If a deposit is taken, it is released at check-out, which can take a few days to appear on your card.
Can I check in early at Ho Tram Beach Boutique if I arrive in the morning?
Early check-in is possible for a fee, depending on availability, so ask the hotel when you book. If your room is not ready, you can usually leave your luggage at reception and use the pools and the restaurant while you wait.
Is smoking allowed at Ho Tram Beach Boutique?
Rooms are non-smoking and smoking is allowed only in designated outdoor areas, according to the main listings. Some guests mention cigarette smoke drifting into the open-sided restaurant, so choose a table on the windward side if it bothers you.
Does Ho Tram Beach Boutique serve halal or vegetarian food?
Vegetarian dishes are available at the restaurant and at breakfast, but halal food is not offered on site or nearby, according to a halal travel listing. For strict dietary needs, ask the hotel when you book; special requests are on request rather than guaranteed.
What happens to my booking if the weather turns bad?
Your room is covered by the cancellation terms of the rate you booked, not by the weather. Heavy rain in October rarely closes the resort, but it can stop sea swimming and boat trips. If your dates are uncertain, choose a refundable rate.
Do I need to register my passport at Ho Tram Beach Boutique?
Yes. As at every hotel in Vietnam, reception records your passport details to register your stay with the local authorities. They may take a copy or a scan and hand the passport back. Vietnamese guests use their ID card.
