Since its inception in 1984, when the founders of Banyan Tree purchased the initial land plot, Laguna has expanded to include 7 hotels, over 20 residential developments, a golf course, restaurants, spas, retail galleries, and more. For property buyers, Laguna offers a secure, high-end neighborhood with hotel-standard maintenance of common areas, developed infrastructure, and high connectivity.

Bonuses and privileges
As with all Banyan Tree projects, Garrya comes with a treasure trove of bonuses, including:
- Sanctuary Club card - Banyan Tree’s membership program, which gives property owners discounts and privileges in all of the Group’s properties worldwide
- Laguna Golf membership
- Developer financing - which is something very rare in Thailand, especially since foreigners generally can’t get bank financing
- Exchange program - exchange part of your complimentary stay to use it Banyan Tree’s properties in different countries.
Garrya’s location is exceptional on several levels.
First and most obviously - it’s beachfront. There is less and less beachfront plots on Phuket every year, especially in a prime area like this one.
Secondly, it’s located in Laguna Phuket - Banyan Tree’s integrated resort and one of Phuket’s most prestigious addresses.
Thirdly, it’s in Bangtao, one of Phuket’s most popular beaches and probably the most upscale one (if we don’t count tiny semi-private beaches occupied fully by a single 6-star resort). Bangtao had been a prime area for decades, driven by Banyan Tree’s development of Laguna, but it truly rose to the next level post-COVID. Due to the way it remained mostly open and extremely safe during the pandemic, it attracted new crowds and started rapidly developing into a world-class destination. Here you have Boat Avenue shopping district - home to Phuket’s best restaurants, cafes and bars, as well as numerous shops and boutiques; then there is Porto de Phuket lifestyle mall by Central Group, Laguna golf course, multiple five-star hotels, wellness clinics and everything you need for the good life.
The following landmarks and places of interest are in the project’s vicinity:
- Bang Tao beach - 0 m
