Combing the best elements of a tropical getaway with seclusion and privacy synonymous with Banyan Tree, guests can escape from the outside world with days passing in a gentle flow of relaxation, all soothed by the Gulf of Thailand and cool sea breezes.

The 88 all pool villas offer accommodation with beautiful views, featuring private sun decks and plunge pools. A dedicated villa host will ensure all of your needs are met. Even though the resort is built on a hill, there is an efficient buggy service to take you where you wish to go be that the spa, beach or pool.

Why we like Banyan Tree Samui

You will not share the beach with anyone else other than hotel guests – a rarity in Thailand.

Facilities

Activities

The shuttle bus to Chaweng and Lawai makes it convenient to explore these busy local towns. The resort is family-friendly with activities and entertainment, but for those in need of tranquility, there is an adult only corner.
