About Banyan Tree Phuket

Thirty years ago, our founders purchased a vast expanse of coastal land in Phuket, Thailand punctuated by lagoons of the most intense cobalt blue, only to discover that its beauty came not from Mother Nature, but the pollution by the previous tenant, a tin mine. Rather than walk away, they dedicated themselves to cleansing the acid-laden soil by planting more than 7,000 trees. In doing so, they transformed this ecological wasteland into the first environmentally sensitive Banyan Tree resort in 1994 – Banyan Tree Phuket. Since those beginnings our passion and focus on the journey, discovery and romance of travel remains at the core of our business today. Escape to a sanctuary for the senses at the award-winning Banyan Tree Phuket located in the Andaman’s greatest treasure, the island of Phuket. A private paradise of luxurious all-pool villas nestled around a salt water lagoon and surrounded by lush greenery. This is the perfect destination for travelers seeking a luxury hideaway, a golf getaway, a relaxing staycation or a base from which to explore this beautiful island’s heritage, culture and stunning beaches.
