Description

This book explores how the ‘Banyan Tree Experience’ evolved. It describes the care taken by the architects and designers to preserve and include the beauty of the natural environment in the planning and construction of the Banyan Tree properties. Although they follow a common theme, each resort is a reflection of its particular geographical location, making it distinctive and unique. Banyan Tree Spas use age-old Asian healing techniques and remedies to arouse the senses and evoke spiritual harmony and physical well being. They are located in all the resorts and are the key to the ‘Banyan Tree Experience’. This book investigates the philosophy behind the treatments and how they contribute to a well-balanced lifestyle. Crucial to the success of Banyan Tree Hotels and Resorts are the people who help make it happen. Banyan Tree staff hail from 32 countries. Each resort has a story to tell about how it interacts with the surrounding communities, which is covered in the book.
