"The adjoining stretch of Bang Tao beach might not be the most picturesque and the setting between apartment buildings not the most enticing—but none of that matters after you’ve checked in at one of Banyan Tree’s private pool villas. Somewhat confusingly, the villas—classic Thai affairs with pointed roofs and teakwood floors—are spread over three distinct areas: book the adult-only Spa Sanctuary villas for all-you-can-spa perks, or the DoublePool villas for twin pools and heaps of space. But even the entry-level villas at the main address offer plenty of comforts, with open-air bathtubs, walled gardens, and pools long enough for laps." - Chris Schalkx
