Laguna Golf Lăng Cô
Faldo’s routing through dunes, boulders and working rice paddies.
Destination imageryIMG’s paspalum dune course, next door to Hoiana Shores on the Nam Hoi An coast.

Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An sits on the coastal strip south of Hoi An, in Thang Binh district, right beside Hoiana Shores. It opened in 2018 as part of the Vinpearl Resort & Golf Nam Hoi An complex, with a five-star hotel, villas and the VinWonders theme park within the same development. For a visiting golfer the useful point is that the course has its own tee-time desk and an on-site hotel, so a round can be fixed by email without going through an agent.
Visitors are welcome every day, but tee times must be booked ahead. The course takes requests by email at teetime-namhoian@vinpearlgolf.com, or by phone through the office and pro shop on +84 235 3808 888. Golf operators including Golfasian also hold tee times. No current rate card is published, so prices are on request; the last figure Where2Golf listed, in 2024, was ₫3.2 million for 18 holes in high season with cart and caddie, so ask for a quote that confirms both are still included. Carts are compulsory. You may walk, but your caddie drives the cart, and Golfasian reviewers report days when carts were kept to the paths, which slows play.
IMG Worldwide designed the course, an 18-hole par 72 of 7,038 yards from the back tees according to Where2Golf (Golfasian lists 7,011). Platinum paspalum covers fairways, rough, tees and greens, so the ball sits up well and the colour contrast with the white sand bunkers is sharp. The land rolls through low dunes with between 4 and 11 metres of elevation change, according to Golfasian, and casuarina pines line the holes near the sea while broadleaf trees take over inland. Several holes at the start and finish of the round have sea views. Golfasian notes a drivable par four on each nine, which gives longer hitters a real decision. The greens hold many subtle breaks, and golfer reviews collected by Golfasian mention a lot of bunkers and slower greens on the far holes.
Book a morning start. By late morning the heat builds and the onshore breeze strengthens, which changes club selection on the holes near the beach. If you are staying in central Hoi An, allow about 30 minutes each way, and arrange the transfer with your hotel or golf operator rather than looking for a taxi at the club afterwards. Many golfers play this course and Hoiana Shores on back-to-back days, since the two clubhouses are minutes apart. Bring cash in Vietnamese dong for the caddie.
Da Nang International Airport (DAD) is the gateway. Golfasian puts the course about an hour from Da Nang and 30 minutes from Hoi An, and Where2Golf gives the road distance as about 40 km from Da Nang and 13 km from Hoi An. The club is on Thanh Nien coast road in Thang Binh, Quang Nam.

Vinpearl Resort & Golf Nam Hoi An is on site, with hotel rooms and pool villas and the shortest possible walk to the first tee. Hoiana’s hotels sit just to the north beside the neighbouring course. For restaurants and evening life, most visitors stay in Hoi An itself or at An Bang and Cua Dai beaches, accepting a half-hour drive each morning in return.
Hoiana Shores, Robert Trent Jones II’s links, is next door. Montgomerie Links and Legend Da Nang are about 45 minutes north on the coast road, and Ba Na Hills is further inland. Away from golf, VinWonders Nam Hoi An has a river safari and cultural park within the resort, and the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An Ancient Town are half an hour away. Cham Islands boat trips leave from Cua Dai.
February to May gives the most comfortable golf on this coast, with dry weather and morning temperatures in the twenties. June to August is dry but very hot, so dawn tee times matter. The wet season runs from about September to December, and October and November bring the heaviest rain and occasional typhoons.
Explore golf by monthYes. The course is open to visitors on weekdays and weekends, but you must book in advance by email or phone, or through a golf operator. Hotel guests at Vinpearl Resort & Golf Nam Hoi An can arrange times at the front desk.
No. They are neighbouring courses. Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An is an IMG design that opened in 2018, while Hoiana Shores is a Robert Trent Jones II links in the Hoiana resort, a few minutes away along the same stretch of coast.
Where2Golf lists it at 7,038 yards and par 72 from the back tees. Where2Golf gives about 5,700 yards from the club tees and 5,150 yards from the forward tees, so most holiday golfers will play a far shorter course.
