Fodor's Expert Review Lang Co Beach Resort

This has the feel of a state-owned hotel, though the facilities and beach location are first-rate. Rooms are basic but have whirlpool tubs, comfortable beds, and most have fantastic ocean views. The staff are charming, but on weekends and holidays it can be alarmingly crowded and noisy with domestic tourists. The positive aspect is that during weekdays you'll have the whole beach to yourself. The restaurant can be a bit hit or miss, but just a stone's throw from the resort lie some of the best seafood restaurants on the Lang Co coastal stretch; their specialty is oysters char-grilled by the dozen.
