Suggested places to stay on Binh Lap Island
Binh Lap Island Cam Ranh is famous for two resorts Ngoc Suong and Sao Bien
+ Sao Bien Resort
This is an eco-tourism area, not a resort, so we cannot expect the same facilities and services as resorts. Cheap prices, suitable for families or large groups, many types of rooms
+ Ngoc Suong Resort
Quieter, more groups and families. There is no shortage of virtual living locations.
When I went, it wasn't too crowded, I rarely saw any staff, so I had plenty of time to take virtual photos on the bridges.
The beach here is wider, there are coconut trees along the beach and a swing in the middle of the lake looks very pretty.
+Villa Golden Flower Island:
Located right on Ngang beach - the cleanest beach of Cam Ranh bay, Hoa Vang Island is nestled in a cashew garden, with mountains on one side and the sea on the other, which will leave you amazed by the beauty of this place.
