Monday\u00a0newsletters<\/a>\u00a0always feature\u00a0top 10 travel lists<\/a>\u00a0to inspire.<\/p>\n

Today (September 25, 2017): My 10 preferred Banyan Tree hotels & resorts in the world.<\/strong><\/h5>\n

I have previously published top 10 lists about my favorite Aman<\/a> and Four Seasons<\/a> hotels. Today, I am sharing my opinion on a less known (at least in the West) but equally luxurious hotel brand, Banyan Tree<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In days gone by, merchants would gather under the leafy branches of a banyan tree to conduct business in the cooling shade. Over time, this unique tree has come to symbolise the relief and shelter provided by nature to all men and women. Today, it is also the name of a special group of ultra-luxury hotels that stretches across the globe and offers rest and relaxation to the world-weary.\u00a0The Banyan Tree hospitality company, which was established in 1994, has its roots in Singapore and operates two other brands besides ultra-luxe Banyan Tree: Angsana<\/a>, which provides a range of recreational activities and suited for families and friends, and Cassia<\/a>, a holiday apartment concept. With attentive yet discreet staff, Banyan Tree ranks among the world’s most exclusive hotel brands<\/a> and provide naturally luxurious, ecologically sensitive, and culture-aware experiences for the discerning traveler. The brand’s main selling points are palatial private villas that all come with an enormous pool, and spectacular garden spas to rejuvenate the body, mind and soul. I hereby present you my 10 favorite Banyan Tree hotels & resorts in the world.<\/p>\n

There is more info below my slideshow. Think I missed one? Share your\u00a0 favorite Banyan Tree hotel in the\u00a0comments section<\/strong>, or take my\u00a0poll<\/strong>\u00a0below!<\/p>\n
