    The founding Banyan Tree resort, set among the lagoons of northwest Phuket. Private-pool villas and a spa-led approach helped establish a model of Asian resort hospitality that the Singapore-based group subsequently expanded worldwide.

    The Story

    Origin

    Opened in 1994 as the first Banyan Tree resort, the property forms part of Laguna Phuket, developed on rehabilitated former tin-mining land.

    Why Important
