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.

Beautifully situated. Private beach and area. Jungle feel, good restaurants. Excellent bungalows with pools. Mosquitoes sadly but spraying done.

Banyan Tree Samui is one of the highest quality resorts that I have stayed at. Right from the amenities in the expansive villas to the ingredients used in the restaurants, everything is top quality. The staff is pleasant and respsonsive. You can spend days at resort and be fully entertained and immerse in the tropical getawayexperience without the urge to leave the property. I truly enjoyed the time at the pools, the private beach and all of the restaurants. The only drawback is the beach does not have the powdery sand and it is more on the rainy side and can get hot really fast during the day. on the other hand, I was presently surprised by how good the snorkeling experience was. water clarity while not at the Maldives level is pretty decent and there are plenty of fish in the sea. Finally, I would like to thank the staff at the resort for being extra kind and considerate and dropping off my daughter’s Apple Watch that she had left behind in the villa. All in all a great family vacation made extra special by the resort and the staff.

Had an incredible stay here in June 2025. Stayed for three nights in a sanctuary pool villa. These have a villa length private pool and jacuzzi and two separate outdoor areas. The villa has an entry sitting room, bedroom, separate wardrobe, bath, bathroom and rain shower. Villa is surrounded with lush garden for privacy. The Banyan Tree brand continues to meet expectations as a high end accommodation option. Beauty was amazing as our villa host. Am was a very hospitable and attentive server each morning at breakfast and Jack was a fantastic host at the beach restaurant. A number of personalised special touches during our stay. Beautiful property in private grounds but still not far away from main town for those who want to explore outside of the resort during their stay. Highly recommended.
