“A classic Banyan Tree offering with slick Asian-inspired design and even slicker service. Rooms, suites, and villas are minimalist in style with sharp lines and plenty of wood. With three very good restaurants (the Thai Saffron is the real star), a spa, and a secluded spot — this is luxury defined.”
