At the Oasis Hotel in Ben Tre, we are at the heart of the Mekong, surrounded by all the activities that are associated with the day to day life of the Mekong Delta:
The numerous village handcraft industries that have been operating for many generations.
The coconut growing and processing industries, which contribute 75 % of the output of the coconut industry in Vietnam.
The growing fish farming industry.
The canals, rivers, coconut groves, rice paddies, markets, and villages of the local area.
The chance to observe and experience these lifestyles makes Ben Tre an ideal destination for seeing the Mekong as its best. The Ben Tre Oasis Hotel is a great base to explore from. We are under 2 hours from Ho Chi Minh City by Bus, or hire car.
