September 23 - Day 4: Lang co Bay - Resort time

We left HCMC this morning and flew up to Danang for the next stage of our holiday. This was planned as our slow & relaxing time. We were met at the airport and driven north for about an hour, through a very long tunnel through the mountains to the Angsana resort on Lang Co bay. It's quite remote, with 2 connected resorts being pretty much the only development on this big, beautiful beach and bay. The resort itself is stunning. On arrival we had tea and chocolate treats then were delivered to our suite - 2 bedrooms with big ensuites, living & dining, and a private deck with our own pool. 3 TVs! Luxury plus!

The gardens are beautiful and immaculate, surrounding many bigger swimming pools which are all connected and flow into a long winding swimming channel that runs around the resort for over 600 meters. The kids were straight into the water to explore of course.

A lot of thought has gone into design with many sculptures, winding pathways and fabulous interior design.

 

 

 

 

 

 

After lunch and a look at the beach (hot hot hot sand, warm water and not a soul in sight) the kids checked out activities and chose to go on the water pillars which turned out to be big peddle wheels. They peddled in the canal which connects the 2 resorts.

 

 

 

For dinner we tried out the Rice Bowl restaurant which turned out to be pretty special and we had one of our best meals ever. Beautiful decor with timber domes over the tables and fantastic lighting. The food was superb and we were looked after like royalty.

 

Salmon steaks. Delish!!!

Not as much action as the last few days but here are the top 5 for the day....
