with NEW SERENITY POOL VILLAS & RESIDENCES

Phuket, Thailand, July 2019 – In September 2019, Banyan Tree Phuket, flagship property for Banyan Tree
Hotels & Resorts, will proudly celebrate 25 years as Phuket’s premier holiday resort. From seasonal offers, to
environmental initiatives, to a brand new selection of Serenity Pool Villas and Serenity 3 Bedroom Pool
Residences, staying with Banyan Tree Phuket is now better than ever – so let the festivities begin!

2019 is a year of celebration for Banyan Tree Phuket, with the resort offering two brand new villa categories,
as part of its year-long 25th anniversary celebration. The festivities culminate in September with a flurry of
exciting activities, including: a Charity Golf Tournament, a Phuket Inter Hotel Football Charity Tournament,
Tree Planting events with a worldwide goal of planting 25,000 new trees, sustainability activities such as
Plastic Free Banyan Tree, and a special gala to honour guests who have visited the property since its
beginning – along with past and current associates, and the worldwide Banyan Tree family.

The highlight of the year will of course be the new villas: 25 One Bedroom Serenity Pool Villas and 8 Serenity
Three Bedroom Pool Residence, which are now open for bookings for stays from 1st of November 2019.
Inspired by the serene location they are nestled in, the new Villas are located on the Golf Course and provide
an ample space for guests to relax and unwind in their own private villa. In true Banyan Tree style all villas are
complete with their own private pool.

Sriram Kailasam, Area General Manager, has spent 17 years with Banyan Tree properties. He has been at the
heart of Banyan Tree for much of its growth, and recently expressed admiration for the entire Banyan Tree
family. “Our achievements so far have been beyond anything we could have hoped for in the early years of
the property. But every award we win, and every smile we see on the face of our valued and loyal guests, is a
testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team. Our launch of the new Serenity Villas and
Residences is proof positive that our commitment to innovation and guest satisfaction is brighter than ever.”

BANYAN TREE PHUKET CELEBRATES 25 YEARS with NEW SERENITY POOL VILLAS

From Transformation to Celebration

Over thirty years ago, the founders of Banyan Tree purchased a vast expanse of coastal land in Phuket,
Thailand, that was punctuated by lagoons of the most intense cobalt blue. They later discovered that its
beauty came not from mother nature, but the pollution left 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.

This was the birth of Banyan Tree Phuket, a sanctuary for the senses with a vision to offer guests a naturally
luxurious, ecological, and culturally sensitive experience. 25 years and numerous awards later, Banyan Tree
Phuket is proud to offer unique delights for its guests – including spacious DoublePool Villas, and an exclusive
Wellbeing journey at Banyan Tree Phuket’s Spa Sanctuary. These and other highlights of the Banyan Tree
experience adhere to Banyan Tree’s long-time philosophy of treating its guests with a holistic approach to the
mind, body and soul.

Banyan Tree Phuket’s guests over the years have embraced this approach, and turned the resort into the
successful brand it is today. The resort is more dedicated than ever to its mission: “Aspiring to build globally
recognised brands by creating exceptional experiences for our guests, instilling pride and integrity in our
associates, and enhancing both the physical and human environment in which we operate.”
In the spirit of celebration, Banyan Tree Phuket is offering a special promotion to commemorate its
anniversary.
