Dancing in the Sand at Koh Samui
The festive period at Banyan Tree Samui is always a lavish and fun affair with a mouthwatering set menu for New Year’s Eve at The Edge, the resort’s all-day dining venue which sits perched on the hillside with a spectacular vista overlooking a secluded beach and the shimmering seas of the Gulf of Thailand. Countdown on Dec. 31 sees guests and staff descend to open-air beachfront restaurant Sands, where fireworks, cocktails, champagne and much merriment takes us into the New Year. Highlights this year will be a fire show and a live DJ as guests dance the night away on the sand.
