Located south of Bangkok in the "Land of Smiles," the picturesque island of Koh Samui is home to some of the world's most beautiful beaches, temperate rainforests, and stunning shorelines. With the addition of Banyan Tree Samui, Koh Samui is now home to the "Best New Beach Resort Hotel" as named by the elite Condé Nast Traveller Hot List 2011. The resort's breathtaking exterior rises above the shimmering Gulf of Thailand amidst cascading treetop terraces on an isolated hill cove. Banyan Tree Samui boasts an all villa-resort; each generously proportioned living space impressively combines aspects of traditional Thai-style architecture with modern planning and design, such as the steep, raised rooftops, striking floor-to-ceiling windows, and its own elevated, private pool. The beautiful, expansive grounds are surrounded by the lush, aromatic foliage of the region, making it the picture perfect backdrop for every celebration of life: birthdays, weddings, romantic getaways, and everything in between.

My husband and I spent our fifth year anniversary here. It truly was the best part of our vacation in Thailand. First, my husband and I LOVE frequenting highly rated restaurants any time we travel- we typically expect to leave a resort to find authentic and delicious cuisine. However, at Banyan Tree Samui we barely left the property because the food was THAT delicious. Secondly, the service is very prompt and any request is met in a timely manner. We loved lounging by the beach, and dipping in the pool and the service in both of these areas. Lastly, the resort itself is stunning. The trees, the beautiful pools, and the golf cart trip to your room provide beautiful scenery everywhere you look. We could not have had a better time here in Koh Samui!

Banyan Tree Samui is one of the best hotels we’ve stayed at, for location, ambiance, service, and amenities. We spa experience was wonderful, Nee was a thoughtful and gifted masseuse. We rented a boat for the day through the hotel and we’ve scuba diving and exploring caves in the smaller islands off of Ko Samui, and it was one of the most unique experiences we’ve ever had. Boso our guide was the best. Can’t say enough!

The food, service, views and general atmosphere at Saffron was amazing! We couldn’t fault it. Ocha, Daimon, Luna and Palm were exceptional in looking after us, thank you! They were able to easily cater for my dairy and gluten intolerance, I felt very safe eating here. Thank you for a lovely evening x
