Banyan Tree Lang Co

Everthing is good. The landscape is so beautiful. The restaurant is nice. You can enjoy yourself in nature. My family has a amazing trip in the beach pool villa. We will come back soon to enjoy Banyantree hotel again. I would like to recomend al of you to visit here.

This was another wonderful experience at Banyan Tree Lang Co after our past visits to Maldives and Phuket. We had a great and relaxing time. All the staff was very helpful, thinking about our needs before us. The villa we stayed in was simply perfect in every way. We would like to mention two special people in the customer relations team. Firstly: Ngoc (Jade). She was an energetic and a very talented employee, who kept the needs of the customers first. She made us feel very special with her help and kindness, taking care of many arrangements efficiently to ensure a pleasant stay. Second special person was Mi. She was also very helpful again with her soft approaches and always smiling face. They both have made our stay very special. In general, we would highly recommend the Banyan Tree Lang Co to anyone looking for a vacation to remember.

Unparalleled Service. Jade was amazing- no ask was too big… and we were a big group of travellers across three villas. She provided helpful advice and always provided more than expected. Including taking care of me when I was sick. Thank you Jade. The beach villa had a gorgeous outside area and view.

Best :The service Very good Property Yoga and meditation class was superb Ngoc Jade was great, always present helping us and with very good suggestions. Six stars. The spa is excelent. Very good Bed, breakfast and bath. A lots of privacy, with silent to rest a lot !

Banyan Tree Lang Co – A Beautiful Escape in Need of Refinement Banyan Tree Lang Co offers a mix of charm and disappointment. While the resort does deliver an exotic and serene getaway in many ways, it also falls short in refinement—especially considering its premium price tag. The Positives: • Service: Truly exceptional. From the flawless check-in to the attentive staff throughout the stay, service is a highlight. We were even able to view and upgrade to a stunning hilltop villa—highly recommended. The buggy system generally works well (though there was a minor hiccup at checkout). • Villa Experience: The new hillside villas are in excellent condition, with spacious layouts, fantastic views, and large, warm private pools. A true retreat. However there are also old villas at the hilltop and the resort should be more clear in the booking setting. Not all 3 bedroom villas are new and in the website it clearly gives that impression. • Breakfast: Outstanding variety and quality. Easily one of the best breakfast spreads we’ve experienced. • Tranquility & Scents: The signature Banyan Tree aromatherapy touches—natural scents, oil burners, and spa-like ambiance—elevate the overall experience. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing. • Nature & Grounds: Touring the lush gardens by complimentary bicycle is a delight, though the bikes could use an upgrade. • Excursions: Our private resort tour to the Hue Imperial City was exceptional. Mr. Hung, our guide, was truly outstanding—knowledgeable, kind, and professional. One of the best tour experiences we’ve had anywhere. The Negatives: • Beach: The beach, unfortunately, underwhelms. The sand is coarse, the water dark, and the presence of large cargo ships on the horizon breaks the illusion of a pristine escape. • Aging Infrastructure: The resort’s age is beginning to show, especially in the common areas. Rusty fixtures, stained fabrics, and outdated furnishings detract from the otherwise beautiful setting. The breakfast restaurant, despite the excellent food, feels dark and worn down. • Design Choices: Some interior design elements—such as carpets, dining chairs, and room decor—feel dated and lack elegance. There’s a difference between rustic charm and simply being run-down, and unfortunately, many areas fall into the latter. • Saffron Restaurant: The ambiance is inconsistent. While the lamps are beautiful, the rest of the furniture feels mismatched and tired. The mandatory dress code (long pants) feels excessive given the hot climate. Additionally, the “hot plates” used for some dishes pose a burn risk—something we experienced firsthand with little warning from staff (though they handled the incident professionally). • Fitness Center: Small, outdated, and poorly located right next to the vehicle entrance. The equipment variety is minimal, and it really needs a full overhaul. • Main Pool: While visually appealing, the main pool is surprisingly small for a resort of this scale. Guests are directed to use the neighboring Angsana facilities, which are more family-focused—less ideal for couples or adults seeking peace. Given the ample space on the property, a larger lap pool would be a smart addition. Some of the poolside tiles are also in poor condition, though the water quality and furniture were excellent. • Value for Money: This is the biggest issue. At nearly $900 USD per night, we expected a flawless experience. Unfortunately, the aging condition of the resort does not justify the price. For comparison, we stayed at the Regent Phu Quoc for a similar rate and enjoyed impeccable facilities, complimentary meals, and a higher standard across the board. Banyan Tree positions itself as a luxury leader, but without a major renovation or a price adjustment, this property does not meet that standard. Final Thoughts: Banyan Tree Lang Co has undeniable beauty and potential. The service, villas, and natural surroundings are truly impressive. But for the price, guests should expect a more polished experience throughout. With some investment in renovation and greater attention to detail, this could be a top-tier resort. Until then, it’s a beautiful stay that comes with caveats.
