A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because it occupies its coastline in style: with Lamai and Chaweng given over to the crowds, this hillside above a private inlet keeps a stretch of untouched shore for itself, a self-contained ecosystem of refinement with the top-notch service and heady atmosphere the group is known for.
- In the hills above a private inlet at Maret, on the south-east coast; Banyan Tree house.
- Pool villas on the hillside; the spa; the hillside restaurants; a beach of its own; the funicular between the levels.
- Two MICHELIN Keys in the 2025 selection; holds four-star standing.
