A couple living in a village between Da Nang and Hoi An provides a detailed tour of their one-bedroom apartment, which costs a flat $540 per month including all utilities. The apartment features a separate living room, kitchen, king-size bedroom, walk-in balcony, and generous storage space. They explain they chose this location over popular expat areas like My Khe Beach because they wanted more space, privacy, and quiet. After 20 days of short-term stays in Da Nang, they found studios too cramped and two-bedroom units overpriced for their needs. Their apartment is 15 km south of Da Nang, requiring a 50-minute motorbike ride for city amenities, a trade-off they consider worthwhile for the peace and value. Local services such as nail care and head massages cost a fraction of tourist-area prices. The video is directly useful for long-term renters or digital nomad couples seeking a homestay base outside the tourist zone.
