Review: Banyan Tree Lăng Cô

The Banyan Tree Lang Co is a collection of sixty-two villas on the central coast of Vietnam, right between the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Huế and Hoi An. It’s the ideal launching point to explore those towns and to soak in the tranquility of Central Vietnam’s countryside—but you’ll find it hard to leave this two-mile stretch of pristine beach, or your villa for that matter. Each villa comes with a private pool and depending on which you stay in, you’ll either have views of a natural lagoon, the beach, or the surrounding mountains. An 18-hole golf course, a yoga pavilion, three restaurants, and a spa, mean there’s plenty on offer for any kind of traveler. But whichever you are, you’ll find its natural setting, seamlessly embedded into rural Vietnam, the main attraction.
