About the Hotel
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.

Reviews for Banyan Tree Samui
A luxurious and relaxing vacation experience
My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon at Banyan Tree Samui and had the most wonderful and luxurious experience. Our villa was so beautiful and peaceful, and the service from the entire Banyan Tree staff was truly above and beyond. The resort never felt overcrowded, and the shared facilities, the food, and the spa were all stellar. We especially enjoyed our massages from Charlene and Tiara! The nightly turndown service, the 24/7 availability of buggies to take you around the resort, and the quick communication via WhatsApp all made for a magical and seamless vacation. The whole stay was one of the best experiences we've had while traveling, and we can't recommend Banyan Tree Samui enough.

Amazing hotel, Saffron restaurant is excellent
Wonderful and personal experience at the Banyan Tree Samui. Would highly recommend, especially the masaman curry. Special thanks to Tai, Ocha, Daimond, Melon Luna and Amy at Saffron for such a wonderful evening!

A Fantastic Stay
We stayed for four nights at this wonderful hotel after a weeks stay at the Ritz Carlton on Koh Samui. After such a good stay at the previous property, we felt that that experience could not be equalled but I’m delighted to say that the Banyan tree managed to do just that. The property is exquisite and the staff really do go out of their way to make you feel special. Nothing is too much trouble and always delivered with a smile. We stayed in a royal banyan villa - the villa was beautiful and commanded excellent views towards the sea. All the food we had was of an extremely high standard and delicious. Our villa host, Nicha, was superb and was always on hand for any assistance required, A lovely lady who is a real credit to the team at the Banyan tree. I look forward to visiting this hotel again next year for another few days in paradise. Thank you.

An Unforgettable Honeymoon Experience with Exceptional Hospitality
Our honeymoon stay at Banyan Tree was truly worth every moment and an experience we will always cherish. What made it so special was not just the beauty and luxury of the property, but the extraordinary way in which we were taken care of throughout our stay. A heartfelt mention to our villa host, Tak, who was absolutely brilliant. She was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring in every interaction. From ensuring our comfort to helping us with every little detail, she made us feel incredibly special and welcomed. Her warmth and professionalism added a very personal touch to our honeymoon experience. What impressed me the most was the level of attention and follow-up by the Banyan Tree team. The hospitality never felt mechanical — it felt sincere, thoughtful, and deeply guest-oriented. They truly understand how to create memorable experiences and make guests feel valued. This was more than just a luxury stay; it was a beautiful and unforgettable honeymoon experience filled with comfort, care, and wonderful memories. Highly recommended and absolutely worth the experience.

Paradise
Travelled with our 9 month old. The hotel pick up was seamless. The resort is on a beautiful beach with breathtaking views. Our villa was the horizon which provided an amazing view. Definitely require buggy service to get to amenities of the resort from villas but this was very easy and enjoyable for all. Breakfast was lovely with many options. The staff and service was impeccable. Utilised the gym and the spa which was lovely. Thank you for a wonderful holiday
