The Lodge

Sapa has been becoming a major tourist destination of North Vietnam, a natural starting point for the unique experiences in the mountainous area, which includes the Hoang Lien Son mountain range, Indochina's highest peak of Fansipan (3143m) and 5 different hill-tribes, each one colorful, distinct, and with its own language and cultural values. Some of the villages, especially the more remote ones, are still largely untouched by modern ways of life.

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 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.
