Thua Thien Hue Province, Vietnam – Reported by Elite Traveler, the private jet lifestyle magazine
Banyan Tree Group proudly announced the upcoming launch of Vietnam’s first world-class integrated resort, Laguna Lăng Cô, on November 1, 2012. Nestled along the coast of Central Vietnam, Laguna Lăng Cô is Banyan Tree’s first foray in the country, and echoes the ethos of Laguna Phuket, the company’s flagship integrated resort community in southern Thailand.
Framed by over 1.5 miles of beach and lush countryside, the 700-acre community resides near Lăng Cô Bay in the Chan May region overlooking the East Sea, an area renowned for its pristine coastline, tropical jungles, rugged mountain
peaks and proximity to the country’s most storied UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The development is nestled in a unique crescent bay offering privacy and unparalleled exclusivity, and will include Banyan Tree and Angsana hotels and spas, an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Sir Nick Faldo, private villas and residences, convention facilities and a plethora of recreational activities for guests of all ages.
“Banyan Tree has long been interested in establishing a presence in Vietnam to replicate the success of our flagship integrated resort in Phuket,” stated KwonPing Ho, executive chairman of Banyan Tree Holdings, Ltd. “Central Vietnam is an ideal foothold for our inaugural development in Indochina with its natural beauty and areas of rich historical interest such as Hue and Hoi An. We are confident that Laguna Lăng Cô will flourish as a holiday and premium properties destination for both domestic and international luxury tourism.”
Banyan Tree Lăng Cô offers a luxurious retreat in the culturally rich destination of central Vietnam. Inspired by the artistic heritage of Vietnamese dynasties past, the resort features 32 one-bedroom lagoon villas and 17 one-bedroom beach villas set on the shores of Canh Duong beach. A spa highlights Banyan Tree’s award-winning treatments and services, while a Marine Center provides opportunities to learn about and explore the vibrant waters of the East Sea.
Banyan Tree’s sister hotel, Angsana Lăng Cô, is a contemporary getaway featuring 229 stylish suites, 100 of which come equipped with their own private pools. All suites in every room category feature picturesque mountain, lagoon, or sea views, and incorporate local materials such as bamboo and mother of pearl, along with traditional arts with a contemporary twist, lanterns and elegant framed calligraphy.
