Fly Away to the Bahamas will be the new slogan also for Banyan Tree Hotels and Resorts. This is good news for Bahamas Tourism.

Island Developers and Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts today announce a partnership introducing the Banyan Treeโ€™s first property in The Bahamas.

Banyan Tree illa Bahamas is set on 40 acres of pristine Atlantic Oceanfront and Bimini Bayfront properties.

The eco-conscious resort, designed by world-renowned architect Chad Oppenheim, will consist of 50 keys and 54 luxury residences. Exclusively offering the first, authentic Maldives-style overwater bungalows in the Caribbean, the resort brings an entirely new vision to The Bahamas. Hotel suites include private terraces and plunge pools, a signature of Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts, pioneer of this concept. At the core of the propertyโ€™s ideology is to cultivate an ecosystem of authentic experiences that will embrace all the senses and create lasting memories. From unique culinary pop-ups to curated music series, oceanside meditations at the Banyan Tree Spa, and more, illa Bimini will bring world-class luxury to the secluded tropical region.

As our first luxury resort in the Bahamas, Banyan Tree illa Bahamas will showcase the best of our brandโ€™s ethos of creating a Sanctuary for the Senses, while deeply connecting with the environment and local culture. This also represents our Groupโ€™s continued strategic intent to expand into the Americas, a part of the world we have a great affinity for,โ€ said Mr. Peter Hechler, Head of Regional Operations MENA, Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts.
