Set on a pristine white beach, the 78 all-pool villa Banyan Tree Samui combines the best elements of a tropical getaway with white beaches and sun, while being just 19 km from Samui International Airport. Overlooking the sapphire waters of scenic Lamai Bay, the resort is nestled in a series of cascading terraces on a private hill cove located on the south-eastern coast of Koh Samui. Retreat from the bustle of the outside world and enter a secluded haven where your days pass in a gentle flow of tranquillity, while being serenaded to sleep by the deep blue swells of the Gulf of Thailand and cool sea breezes. Pampering features abound including iconic dining venues, the island’s largest individual infinity pools in the villas, as well as The Rainforest, Koh Samui’s only hydrotherapy wellness facility.

Banyan Tree Samui’s all-pool villas range in size between 130 square metres for the Garden Pool Villa and 316 square metres for the Sanctuary Pool Villa. And whether you choose a Beachfront Villa within easy distance of the inviting white-sand beach, a Spa Pool Villa with an in-villa treatment room, or a Royal Banyan Villa with incomparable views of the bay and inland, you’re assured of a remarkable once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Designed especially for the discerning guest, each villa is a private retreat set in lush tropical forest greenery. From the moment you step through the front door, it’s clear that every effort has been made to ensure your stay is as quietly luxurious as possible. Here, indoor living spaces flow naturally into outdoor salas, sunbeds and private swimming pools. The décor is a tasteful mix of mod-cons and traditional Thai elements like natural rattan, bamboo furniture and brightly hued Thai silk.
