We stayed here for 4 nights to celebrate our anniversary and overall we enjoyed the experience. Our package included an 'intimate moments' benefit - which set the scene for a very romantic anniversary indulgence, including flowers, incense, candles, chocolates and a bottle of champagne! Food was very good (esp. Saffron menu); unfortunately wine was very expensive (over 2000 baht for... more

I was bit skeptical with several bad reviews on tripadvisor.com before my trip to Banyantree. This is a five star hotel that costs almost 1,000 USD per night - Obviously expectations are high, and slightest blemish can result in very rapid deterioration of the whole experience. I am barely wealthy enough to afford a vacation like this once a long... more

My wife and I just returned from a three night stay that was nearly perfect from start to finish. Like so many Trip Advisor members, we've traveled all over the world and stay in so many fantastic resorts. And, we've been quite happy with most of them.

I therefore emailed the hotel in advance to ask them to make sure that our pool villa had extra mosquito repellants and asked for an early check in. I got an almost immediate reply from the hotel and on... more

I visited the spa at the Banyan Tree Phuket at the end of April 2009. I stayed at the Sheraton Grande Laguna because of the rate and then enjoyed the Banyan Tree Spa and café by the golf course. WOW! This was my first time enjoying the services and I will go back. Having visited spas in other luxury properties,... more

We stayed at the Banyan Tree for 2 weeks with our 3 kids (1 4yo & 9 month twins).We did enjoy our stay but found the resort a little disappointing to stay with 3 kids. The restaruants did not open unitl 6.30 - not convenient when you have 3 young kids that go to bed at 7. The in house... more

I was lucky enough to stay for 10 nights in a Pool Villa recently at the Banyan Tree. This resort is unusual for the following reasons: everyone said hi everyday and seemed genuinely kind and happy (and it wasn't at all creepy!); I have very high expectations and the villa still had the wow factor (I cried when I arrived... more
