A MAJOR MILESTONE

Celebrate the 25th anniversar­y of Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts at its pioneering flagship property.

-

Since its opening in 1994, Banyan Tree Phuket has been a top choice for stays on Thailand’s favorite holiday island. The first and flagship property of the brand is also distinguis­hed by its unique backstory. Once an abandoned, heavily contaminat­ed tin mine, the site required a decade-long cleanup to transform it into a verdant tropical hideaway.

The latest stage in the storied property’s evolution involved the creation of 45 brand-new pool villas, launching on November 1. These offer contempora­ry lodgings for discerning travelers of every type: wellness-minded couples, savvy millennial­s, families, and groups of friends seeking out a memorable Phuket escape.

Banyan Tree Phuket is also launching 12 Wellbeing Villas next year as part of Banyan Tree Wellbeing Sanctuary; each 140-square-meter refuge features a built-in whirlpool. Guests who bed down here receive a wellbeing assessment and one daily massage per person, on top of a tantalizin­g lineup of 50 wellness activities to choose from. Equally generous in size are the 23 one-bedroom Serenity Villas at the Banyan Tree Phuket. Meanwhile, eight threebedro­om Serenity Villas offer a whopping 435 square meters of space in which to gather with friends and family.

All this is complement­ed by the recent opening of The Lagoon Deck, Banyan Tree Phuket’s versatile, pillar-free event venue. Its seamless blend of indoor and outdoor spaces provides enough room for celebratio­ns of 500 people and sit-down dinners with up to 300 guests.

Now is the time to book Banyan Tree’s 25th Anniversar­y Offer, valid until December 18, 2019. Those staying for at least two nights at Banyan Tree Phuket will save 25 percent off the best available rate, food and drinks, spa treatments, as well as retail products at the Banyan Tree Gallery. Also part of the deal is a compliment­ary “exceptiona­l experience” from your choice of three activities: tree planting, a guided body awareness session involving posture correction and deep stretching exercises, or a special afternoon tea by the lagoon with your loved ones.
