Banyan Group Marks Global Milestones Ahead of 100th Hotel Opening

In November, it will celebrate the Grand Opening of its 100th hotel—Mandai Rainforest Resort in Singapore—with a weeklong celebration and charity festival.

Expansion and Innovation Across Continents

In the first half of the year, the Group expanded its presence across Asia, Africa, and Europe, while celebrating key anniversaries in China and the Maldives.

“Our growth reflects a commitment to authentic, purpose-driven hospitality,” said President and CEO Eddy See. “We believe in using travel as a force for good, rooted in design, culture, and care.”

Debut in Safari Hospitality

Banyan Group will launch its first safari retreat in late 2025: Ubuyu, A Banyan Tree Escape, in Tanzania’s Ruaha National Park. Crafted from local materials and inspired by Maasai architecture, the six-villa eco-retreat will offer immersive wildlife and cultural experiences, reinforcing the Group’s focus on regenerative travel.

20 Years in China

Banyan Group celebrates 20 years in China, where it now operates 33 hotels. This year’s openings include properties in Zhuhai, Zhoushan, Weizhou Island, Wenzhou, and Hengqin. A new clean water project in Lijiang will mark the anniversary, alongside continued efforts in marine and environmental conservation.

30 Years in the Maldives

Marking three decades of presence in the Maldives, the Group was recently honoured by the government for its leadership in sustainable tourism. Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru, opened in 1995, remains a pioneer in eco-luxury.

Southeast Asia Highlights

New openings include Garrya Mu Cang Chai in Vietnam and Homm Mandaue Cebu in the Philippines. Banyan Tree Beach Residences Oceanus launched in Phuket, offering luxury beachfront homes with wellness and family amenities.

Growth in Europe and Retail Expansion

In Madrid, Banyan Tree Padilla Residences mark the Group’s first residential project in Europe, located in the Salamanca district. The Group also expanded its Banyan Tree Gallery retail presence, now featured onboard China Airlines, Emirates, EVA Air, and Starlux.

Recognition and Awards

Banyan Group received over 100 accolades in the first half of 2025. Banyan Tree ranked #2 Best Hotel Brand in the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific, and Dhawa Ihuru was recognised for one of the best house reefs in the Maldives. The Group was also named Thailand's Most Awarded Developer for the second year in a row.

As the Group prepares to open its 100th hotel, it continues to shape the future of hospitality—thoughtfully, globally, and with purpose.
