Set to the south of Ong Lang Beach, between Ob Resort and Mango Bay, Thang Loi Resort is nestled among a coconut and garden grove. At the centre of the rooms is a large comfortable restaurant, well suited to losing a few days with a good book or so. The resort is spacious and well laid out with a bunch of old-style bungalows well spread across the grounds. Some are large wood and bamboo affairs, with ample hammock space and good views, while the cheaper huts are a bit more rustic, but still very well-sized. While the resort was closed when we visited in late October 2008, Thang Loi continues to get rave reviews for the clean rooms and friendly staff. Open only from November to early May.

Perfect spot for doing nothing! - 19th November, 2009
This is a great chilled out spot and next door to a beautiful, fairly secluded beach (where Bo resort is). The bungalows are basic and have everything you need but are looking a bit run down. The restaurant is good although we felt breakfast was a bit overpriced and there is an excellent local restaurant 2 minutes up the path called Sakura . The owner is lovely and speaks great English and cooks some of the best food we had in Vietnam.

great getaway! - 20th January, 2009
this picture of the bunglaows is not current..they look much better than this! They acutally have a choice of a couple different styles, we stayed in the basic, and it was great! had everything we needed, comfy bed, deck with chairs, and bathroom. The resort is somewhat secluded, and the restaurant is really nice, great food, and great, friendly german owners...! Loved it, treated us like family! Highly recommended!

Comfort with sunset every evening - 1st February, 2007
We got a family room for US$20. The place is popular. We had to book in advance. Very friendly staff. German owned - German ruled! Clean environment with no paper or plastic bags on the ground. Nice shady spot, next to a lovely beach (Bo Resort). The restaurant is super.
