Banyan Tree Macau Celebrates Grand Opening

Banyan Tree Hotels and Resorts has celebrated the Grand Opening of the Banyan Tree Macau.

The hotel features four restaurants – including Belon, an “underwater” oyster bar and grill – and a host of other luxurious offerings.

“Banyan Tree Macau, designed to be the city’s first five-star urban resort, is proud to be a part of the world-class Galaxy Macau integrated destination resort,” said Mr Ho Kwon Ping, Executive Chairman of Banyan Tree Holdings. “With an all-suite concept featuring a Relaxation Pool in every suite, plus Pool Villas in expansive private gardens, we hope to welcome all our guests to this haven in the city where they can enjoy a myriad of activities whether for business or pleasure.”

In the heart of Cotai city, just 15 minutes from Macau International Airport, Banyan Tree Macau features private indoor Relaxation Pools in all its 246 opulent suites.

Its four dining outlets are headlined by the signature Belon, designed to evoke an underwater environment. The immersive experience begins from the moment of arrival at the specialty restaurant, which is named after Brittany’s famous delicacy. Guests descend a glass stairwell, passing custom kinetic artwork, down to a bar wrapped in aquatic forms of scallop tails, jellyfish, waves and spiraling shells.

The opening of the property now means visitors can also experience Saffron, Banyan Tree’s signature restaurant. Saffron specialises in creative Thai cuisine and is open daily during lunch and dinner.

Other outlets at Banyan Tree Macau include Cabana for casual poolside dining, and the relaxed Banyan Lounge for social gatherings.

Another major attraction is the Banyan Tree Spa, a 3,400m² haven of indulgence offering sensory pampering and experiences steeped in holistic Asian healing traditions and set alongside two tropical pools. At Banyan Tree Macau’s Sanctuary for the Senses, 10 Pool Villas ranging from 450m² to 950m² feature both private pools and eight air-conditioned cabanas around the outdoor heated pool.

The expansive, 950m² Sanctuary Pool Villas are ideal for family retreats or gatherings of friends, featuring two bedrooms, generous living area and a spa treatment room. The spacious 160m² Sky Villas feature indoor Relaxation Pools and living areas.

Suites range from the 100m² Grand Cotai Suite and 130m² Grand Macau Suite to the 130m² Spa Suite with its own treatment room, as well as a 670m² split-level Presidential Suite with two bedrooms, a dining room, designer kitchen and in-suite Relaxation Pool.

Banyan Tree Macau also features a Grand Ballroom that can accommodate up to 1,200 guests for cocktails.

 Rudy Oretti is the General Manager of Banyan Tree Macau.

An highlight of the integrated destination resort Galaxy Macau is one of the world’s largest skytop wave pools, generating waves that wash against a man-made beach made with 350 tons of real white sand. Resort guests are spoilt for choice with more than 50 restaurants and bars within the integrated complex, including the largest selection of pan-Asian cuisine under one roof in Macau.
