A Retreat That Blends With Nature
The Story of U Lesa – A Dream Rooted in the Forest
U Lesa didn’t begin with a blueprint. It began with a feeling.
It was born from a deep love for the forest, for quiet simplicity, and from the idea that people can live in harmony with nature – not by conquering it, but by walking alongside it with respect.
U Lesa isn’t just a resort; it’s a way of living that invites everyone to slow down and truly be present. Every detail here, from the materials used to the gentle pace of daily life, reflects that mindful and respectful spirit.
At U Lesa, luxury isn’t about extravagance. It’s about authenticity:
Waking up to the sound of forest birds.
Spending the afternoon listening to pine trees whisper in the wind.
Gathering around a fire at night, sharing stories that have long remained unspoken.
There’s no unnecessary plastic. No concrete sprawl. Just people, nature, and mutual respect.
The most beautiful things don’t need to be loud – they simply need to be sincere.
U Lesa may have begun as one person’s dream, but it has become a refuge for many –
For those weary of a fast-paced life.
For those seeking a deeper connection with themselves.
For those in need of a breath – not to escape, but to return.
“I believe the most beautiful things don’t need to be loud – they simply need to be sincere.”
– Founder of U Lesa



LIVING
Garden Line – Serenity in a Green Embrace
Nestled among lush gardens and stone paths, the Garden Line rooms feel like a gentle retreat back to simplicity. Soft sunlight through the vines, rustling leaves in the afternoon, and a peaceful pace all around – this is nature in its most nurturing form.
Ideal for souls who long for calm, slowness, and quiet connection.

Forest Line – Breathing with the Trees
Tucked beneath tall pine canopies, the Forest Line rooms let you truly immerse yourself in nature. Open your window to the scent of damp earth, the whisper of the wind through leaves, and birdsong at dawn. Nights here are wrapped in a deep, grounding stillness.
Perfect for those seeking raw beauty, inner quiet, and a return to the wild within.

Rustling Pines
Tucked beneath a canopy of pine trees, Rustling Pines Restaurant offers a serene dining experience in the heart of nature. Surrounded by lush greenery and the gentle sound of wind through the trees, the restaurant feels like a hidden oasis — calm, shaded, and deeply connected to the forest.
Here, guests can unwind by a natural stone-edged pool, enjoy drinks or light bites under swaying umbrellas, and simply breathe. It’s not just about eating, but about pausing — letting your senses tune into the quiet rhythm of the woods. The atmosphere is both peaceful and grounding, perfect for slow afternoons and quiet conversations.
The Forest Side
Perched on a wooden terrace overlooking the mountains, The Forest-Side Eatery invites guests to dine with sweeping views and golden sunlight. With its open-air deck, warm timber furniture, and twinkling string lights, the space brings a rustic charm that feels both cozy and free.
Whether it’s a morning coffee under the pines, a slow lunch with mountain breezes, or a sunset meal with forest silhouettes in the background — every moment here is bathed in light and calm. The Forest-Side Eatery is not just a place to eat, but a place to feel connected — to nature, to the moment, and to the people around you.

At U Lesa Retreat, every moment is a gentle pause — a chance to unwind, reconnect, and find meaning in the embrace of nature and rich local culture. Let your memories here be filled with peace, joy, and quiet wonder.

Thank you so much for your lovely message!We’re so happy to hear you had a great time and enjoyed the beautiful natural surroundings, the pool, and the restaurant. It truly means a lot to us that you had such a special experience. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Adam2025-05-30Verified Really unique place to stay near Hanoi. Couldn't find anywhere else that had a converted military truck - very fun experience. Only drawback for us was the amount of "influencers" who were constantly taking pictures all over the site, including directly overlooking our outdoor soaking tub. Not much the resort can do about the photo taking (although reminding guests not to pester others for photos may help!) but a little more privacy screening would make the place feel a lot more secluded and peaceful.

Dear Adam,Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us!We're thrilled to hear that you found our converted military truck stay unique and fun, and it's definitely one of the special highlights we love to offer our guests.We also truly appreciate your honest feedback regarding the atmosphere and privacy. We understand how important it is to fully unwind, especially when using spaces like the outdoor soaking tub. While we always encourage guests to be respectful of others' privacy, your note is a valuable reminder for us to reinforce that message more clearly.We’ll also review how we can improve privacy screening in certain areas to make the retreat feel even more secluded and serene, just as it’s meant to be.We’d love to welcome you back in the future, perhaps with even more peace, quiet, and forest calm.Warm regards,The U Lesa Team 🌲 Ewelina2025-03-25Verified Very nice quiet place in secluded area , only stayed for night but was beautiful and peaceful perfect for relaxing , the food in restaurants was good and everyone was nice Aiden2025-03-22Verified An incredibly unique place to stay and a perfect way to escape the bustle of Hanoi Harry2025-03-20Verified Great location to get away from the city. Cosy room with great outdoor space.

Alisha2025-03-13Verified The property was beautiful and all of the habitats were spaced out well so that you had some privacy. It’s a really cool space with stunning views!The two restaurants were cute and had great food and drinks. The staff was so nice, helpful, and accommodating. I only wish we had stayed longer! Jefferson2025-02-04Verified Such a serene little location right next to Hanoi. It is beautiful in terms of nature but also in terms of the design. Loved the little bunker - very functional but be mindful that if you are taller you will need to crouch a bit. The restaurants are great and there are lots to do.
