In the hustle and bustle of modern society, the noise of the city and the fast pace of daily life can sometimes be overwhelming, making one yearn for tranquility and a reconnection with the balance of mind and body.
As one of the pioneers of sustainable tourism, Banyan Tree Group seamlessly integrates sustainable principles with travel experiences. The unique concept of ‘Wellness’ allows travelers not only to participate in sustainable living during their journey but also to reshape their relationship with themselves, others, and nature, revitalizing their mind, body, and spirit.
Just as they brought resort-style travel experiences to China decades ago, Banyan Tree Group has always stayed true to its original intention. From secluded havens to urban oases, their brand hotels, centered around the ‘Live for the Good’ ecosystem, lead travelers on a journey of self-discovery, touching the surrounding natural environment, the cultural history of the destination, and the depths of the soft heart.
Banyan Tree Group firmly believes in the importance of sustainable development to protect our precious Earth. From restoring land polluted by tin mining to creating the picturesque Banyan Tree Phuket, to seamlessly integrating with nature and local communities in the depths of Bali’s jungle with Banyan Tree Ungasan, to leading travelers to recreate thatched roofs with Kyoto’s historic grass weaving at Banyan Tree Nijo Castle Kyoto, and to Puebla, Mexico, where travelers can rediscover local colonial architecture and traditional culture at Banyan Tree Puebla, the group has taken various measures to ensure that sustainable development is not only about environmental protection but also contributes to the preservation of valuable cultural heritage.Banyan Tree Puebla invites travelers to explore the local champions of sustainable living, ‘Casita de Barro’. This initiative, ‘Live for the Good’, offers a more genuine and immersive experience to global travelers, reflecting Banyan Tree Group’s dedication to sustainability. The group’s commitment is further underscored by its annual Sustainability Reports.
In today’s health-conscious era, Banyan Tree Group has crafted a wellness journey based on eight pillars: serenity, nourishment, vitality, mindfulness, grounding, practice, interaction, and growth. This meticulously designed wellness environment aims to help individuals find balance and tranquility in both body and mind.
At Banyan Tree Phuket Sanctuary, amidst the vibrant natural surroundings, one can stretch and connect with others, starting the wellness journey with simple yet significant acts. These can range from sharing a meal, exchanging long-lost greetings with loved ones, sweating it out during exercise, to the journey of self-discovery, cultural exploration, and drawing mindful energy from nature—all part of the intricate details that make up the wellness experience.
