G'Day! I’m Ha-Le Thai — a Vietnamese-Aussie with a deep love for people, stories, and the magic of connection. I’ve been fortunate to travel to more than 40 countries, and with every step, I’ve discovered something beautiful — the joy of a shared smile, the comfort of a warm meal, and the quiet understanding between strangers who come from very different worlds. What these travels have taught me is simple but powerful: no matter where we’re from, we all seek kindness, a sense of belonging, and a place to feel at home. That’s why I created Nhà Waratah Homestay on the peaceful Cham Island — a little haven where guests are welcomed not just with keys to a room, but with open arms and open hearts. Whether you're from Australia, Europe, America or anywhere else, my home is your home. Here, you’ll experience not only the natural beauty of the island — the ocean breeze, the quiet mornings, the starry nights — but also the warmth of Vietnamese hospitality, served with honesty, care, and a touch of Aussie spirit. At Nhà Waratah, you’re not just a guest. You’re part of the story. And while you’re here, we’ll do everything we can to make you feel cherished — like an old friend returning. Wherever you come from, you truly belong here.

Welcome to Nhà Waratah Homestay — a hidden gem perched at the highest point of Cham Island, where nature stretches endlessly in every direction. From our rooftop, you'll feel as if the mountains are gently embracing you, offering a breathtaking panoramic view: lush green forest unfolds in front, while behind you, the endless blue ocean glistens under the sun. It’s a kind of beauty that stills the heart — and once you’ve experienced it, it’s hard to walk away. Thoughtfully designed to reflect the spirit of the island, Nhà Waratah is shaped like a graceful boat resting quietly on land. Every room is crafted from warm, natural wood, offering an earthy, peaceful atmosphere that feels like home. Open any window, and Cham Island greets you with birdsong, a soft ocean breeze, and the quiet hum of nature. And just outside your door, nature truly comes to life — playful monkeys swing between tree branches in the forest in front of the house, their chatter and antics bringing smiles to all who watch. Look up, and you might spot squirrels darting across the power lines with lightning speed, their quick, joyful movements adding a touch of wonder to the day. It’s like watching a little jungle theatre unfold right before your eyes. Nhà Waratah is nestled in the most peaceful corner of the island — far from the noise, the crowds, and the hustle of busier areas. This is a place for those who cherish quiet moments, who find joy in the rustle of leaves and the songs of birds. If you love nature, serenity, and the chance to truly slow down, this is where you’ll feel most at home. More than just a place to stay, Nhà Waratah is where memories are made — from exquisite meals for two, or family, or for larger group, to weddings, romantic dates, and anniversaries. And remember to join our five-star-rated home-cooked meals, lovingly prepared at our on-site restaurant. Be our guests, come dine and rest, explore, celebrate — and feel truly at home.

Nhà Waratah is perfectly positioned to help you explore the very best of Cham Island. We’re just 10 minutes from Bai Xep, the island’s most stunning beach, where the journey there alone is filled with breathtaking coastal scenery. If you have time to spare, let your path stretch a little further to Bai Chong, another hidden treasure worth discovering. Also just 10 minutes away is Bai Ong, a serene haven for sea lovers seeking calm waters and soft sands. And only 3 minutes from our doorstep is the Cham Island center, where you’ll find the boat dock, bustling local markets, charming souvenir shops, and shady spots perfect for picnics or peaceful afternoon strolls. Right in front of Nhà Waratah, a scenic road leads you to Eo Gió, a stunning viewpoint known for its dramatic ocean vistas and magical sunrises — a must-see for nature lovers and early risers. And for those craving energy and local culture, Bai Huong, the island’s vibrant heart of fun and activity, is just a 10-minute motorbike ride away. Wherever you turn, adventure and beauty are never far from Nhà Waratah.
