Its sister properties are Banyan Tree Spa Sanctuary and DoublePool Villas by Banyan Tree.

Every villa features a king-sized bed, spacious bedroom, his and her dressing areas, an open-air sunken bath and a private landscaped garden.

Dining here is a delight with six restaurants to choose from but one of its most memorable dining experiences is found at the floating restaurant. Located in the midst of the main lagoon, you are transported to your table across the water by traditional Thai longtail boat where you dine under the stars as you enjoy a private romantic dinner for two.
