Laguna Lăng Cô, Vietnam by Banyan Tree Group

Home on the green

Situated on Vietnam’s tranquil central coast in the serene Cu Du Village in Phu Loc District of Thua Thien Hue Province, Laguna Park Residences are located alongside Banyan Tree and Angsana Residences Lăng Cô within Laguna Lăng Cô, the first and largest world-class integrated resort in Vietnam.

Laguna Lăng Cô is a 280-hectare integrated resort community situated near Lăng Cô Bay in the Chan May region overlooking the East Sea. The development is located in a unique crescent bay framed by a three-kilometre beach offering privacy and unparalleled exclusivity, and includes Banyan Tree and Angsana branded hotels and spas, an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Sir Nick Faldo, private villas and residences available for sale, convention facilities and a plethora of recreational activities for guests of all ages. Laguna Lăng Cô is a leading world-class holiday and premium second home destination in Southeast Asia and is conveniently located within an hour’s drive from the airports of both Da Nang and Hue.

From a golfing perspective, the most important part of investing in Vietnam is the fact that there is an increasing demand for regional expats to try to experience new courses, and as a matter of form, to seek out new encounters on and off the course. Thailand, the Philippines and Malaysia still pose the odd hazard but are considered ‘old masters’; their provenance makes them a high-end, long-term investment option when considering a residential, rental return investment card. Luna Park has partnered with Sir Nick Faldo who has designed the championship golfing infrastructure and the Banyan Tree and Angsana Residences who are providing the 19th–hole and residential infrastructure in the form of 5-star management and exquisite villa residences is a recipe for success in this emerging ASEAN country.

Championship golfing

Laguna Lăng Cô Golf Club is fast growing a reputation as one of the most breathtaking and challenging courses in Asia. Ideally situated between the ancient capital of Hue to the north and Danang to the south, this rugged course overlooks one of Vietnam’s most beautiful bays. The thoughtful design plots its way through the changing landscape framed by mountain range on three sides and the East Sea to the west. The Laguna golfing experience combines the unique environs of rice paddies, soaring trees, ‘blowout’ areas, creeks, streams and dramatic rock outcrops on oceanfront footage.

“Having collaborated with Laguna Lăng Cô to create its signature 18-hole, par-71 championship course in one of Asia’s most dramatic coastal settings, I am drawn by this unique destination,” enthuses Sir Nick Faldo who has been appointed brand ambassador for Laguna.

Perhaps most importantly, buyers enjoy peace of mind at Laguna Lăng Cô, which is owned and managed by one of Southeast Asia’s most reputable developers with a proven track record that spans more than 28 years who are also stock-exchange listed. The company has sold more than 1,000 properties to date, with numerous phases in their Asian developments achieving sell-out successes to local and international buyers.

Owners at Laguna are also entitled to an array of discounts and privileges throughout the Banyan Tree Group’s collection of award-winning hotels, spas, and galleries in 28 countries around the world. One of Vietnam’s best beach resorts, the Banyan Tree consistently gets 5-Stars from sites such as Tripadvisor.
