Blue Canyon Country Club, Phuket

In an age when many of Asia’s new courses are little more than man-made reconstructions of the environment, Blue Canyon’s developer and designer, Yoshikazu Kato, went to enormous lengths to ensure minimum interference with nature.

What was created is a masterpiece with spectacular, and sometimes daunting, natural hazards, plus acres of lakes accentuated by towering trees. Carved into a fertile landscape, framed by wooded hills and with the scenic Phang Nga Bay providing a stunning backdrop, the 7199-yard course also contains freshwater lakes and natural hazards to challenge even the very best golfers.

Banyan Tree Phuket

Surrounded by some of the most magnificent scenery in Asia, such as the dramatic limestone karsts of Phang Nga Bay and the breathtaking diving reefs of the Similans, this is a tropical paradise that’s hard to imagine and impossible to forget; a place of extraordinary natural beauty under the sheltering canopy of the Banyan tree in the ’Land of Smiles’.

From the extravagance of a Spa Pool Villa to the romance of an ’Intimate Moments’ partner massage, Banyan Tree Phuket has created a ’spa culture’ that uplifts all the senses. It’s just perfect for relaxation, rejuvenation and indulgence.
