Banyan Tree Samui 

The luxury of tranquillity

A stunning resort in a secluded location with captivating views of Lamai Bay

This resort is the ultimate haven for peace and relaxation. On a high slope that overlooks the glistening waters of Lamai Bay, sleek Thai villas are scattered around the curved hillside – an exclusive getaway where life is all about being pampered. The beach is the closest to private you’ll get in Thailand, in a bay nestled on the other side from Lamai Beach where the town is close by.

Why we love Banyan Tree Samui

  • There are just 88 spacious and elegant villas, each of which has a private infinity pool and the services of a dedicated host

  • It has a fabulous secluded location centred on a small private bay complete with a powder-soft sandy beach

  • The award-winning holistic spa takes relaxation to another level with hydrotherapy treatments such as the Rainforest Indulgence

  • Be pampered without leaving your villa with in-room gourmet dining from dawn until late and a menu of candlelit scented baths
