Banyan Tree Koh Samui

Occupying an entire bay, this sprawling uber luxury delight encompasses dozens of pool villas hoisted above the foliage by spider-like stilts. Golf carts zip around the grounds carrying jet-setters between the myriad dining venues and the gargantuan spa (which sports a relaxing rainforest simulator). Villas are spacious and beautifully decorated balancing modern and traditional Thai decor perfectly.
