“Very lovely place! Everyone was really kind and helpful. Our room was great with an ace view, the beach is a bit rocky but totally nice. Also there are a bunch of super friendly relaxed cats and a resident golden retriever wandering about who were all super cute.”

“Secluded location on the north of the island. Most resorts are on the south side, so there is few people. Empty, nearly private beach access. Great service & staff. Fantastic food. We loved it and would come again. ”

“It was an interesting location, on a beach, quiet, and with great food. We thought that the staff was very positive and appropriately attentive.”

“Beautiful views friendly helpful staff very quiet part of the island. Nai deserves a particular mention as she went out of her way to make our stay as wonderful as it was. We would have loved to stay longer but needed to get to the mainland as we had an early morning flight. Liked kayaking around and exploring the island. We ate at Banyan Bay villas every night and the food was excellent home cooked and authentic. We would like to come again. We had come to Thailand to meet my wife’s sister and her husband who live in Darwin Australia and visited several other islands before we parted.”

“We stayed at the Orchid Villa and we had the most wonderful time in our whole Thailand trip. It is a really unique place and we were lucky to stay over New Years Eve. We had at the beginning a 6-course-menu and after this the manager Ketina organized a big long tail boat for the guests (4-5 families). Before midnight we were on the sea and could light up the big thailand balloons. On top of all, only for us, we had a firework at our bay! The Manager is so much caring for all the guest. The food at the hotel was so good, the breakfast more than enough and the staff was amazing! It is breathtaking to wake up with this view at the sea! The bed had a moskito net which worked perfectly. The fan was sufficient and the available AC wasn‘t needed. The Banyan Bay I would recommend to families and couples and single travelers who wants to be on their own. We will be back for sure! ”

“Everything. What a beautiful place. The food, the kindness, how clean and neat everything was and how helpful the staff and Kitima were. Thank you so much everyone at Banyan, you truly made our stay beautiful and special <3 Kisses to the sweetest dogs Mila and Banshee :)”

“Most wonderful holiday accomodation I have ever had (we stayed at Chaba Villa). Tasteful kitchen, so friendly hosts, empty beautiful beach, amazing garden and finally bungalow (clean with wonderful smell!!!) with the view from terrace and indoor design. I am so happy this kind of places still exist in relatively crowded Thailand. I am sure will be back there. Fully recommended for people who want to enjoy holidays peacefully and out of crowds.”

“Lovely place, with a great atmosphere! Very silent, few villas in such a large garden and a private beach. All staff was so friendly and helpful that we felt like visiting our old friends or family. Some may not like the animals (not just dogs and cats but also monkeys, bats, hermit crabs....) but we really enjoyed them all! Hope we will come back again.”

“The peace and quiet settings, and wonderful little beach, lovely staff”

“It is little resort located in beautifull bay, operated by local people with great hospitality and attention. Thank you.”
