Why We Love This Hotel
Location:Sequestered in a private beach cove on the paradise island of Koh Samui, this luxurious resort overlooks the glistening Lamai beach and azure waters of the Gulf of Thailand.
History: Liberated from the hustle and bustle of modern life, guests retreat into the peaceful charm of traditionally-inspired Thai architecture, immersed in a sense of timeless mystique among elevated sea view terraces.
Service:The deluxe surroundings are equally matched by the outstanding service at Banyan Tree Samui. From the little touches such as an array of pillow choices, to the all-out indulgence of Samui’s first Hydrotherapy spa, personalized service and complete relaxation is at the very heart of the Banyan Tree experience.
