The villas were incredibly spacious, with two separate units, a pool, a jacuzzi, a day bed. The hotel facilities were top-notch, with bikes allocated to each villa, allowing us to explore the beautiful nature trail and spot various animals. The boat rides were a unique and enjoyable experience. The entire Banyan Tree staff provided exceptional service throughout our stay, making us feel welcome and attended to. The various restaurants on-site offered delicious food and excellent service, with options ranging from Thai to Italian. The average consumption for two per meal was around 300, including some wine. Cleanliness was impeccable, and we were impressed with the attention to detail in maintaining the hotel's pristine condition.
Nothing, everything was great.
