Situated in the foothills of the Truong Son mountains in Central Vietnam, this fabulous resort looks out over a three kilometre beach on a crescent bay.

The artistic heritage of Vietnamese dynasties past has inspired the design of Banyan Tree Lang Co and its 32 lagoon pool villas. Each one reflects the cultural and historical legacy of Vietnam, with integrated clay tiled pitched roofs, open courtyards and wood rafter ceilings designed in the style of the traditional houses of Hue.

In addition to its hotel swimming pool, gourmet restaurants and award-winning spa, the resort is also home to Laguna Golf Lăng Cô, winner of the 2017 IAGTO Golf Resort of the Year Award. Designed by six-time major winner Sir Nick Faldo, the 18-hole, par-71 championship golf course pairs huge bunkers and plenty of water features with an intriguing mix of holes, perfect for all levels of players. With views of the sea from many of the holes, and a mountainous backdrop for all, the course weaves between trees and streams, over rice paddies and through impressive rock features, and will leave a lasting impression on all who play it.
