Among the Pool Villas are expansive 950m² Sanctuary Pool Villas, ideal for family retreats or gathering of friends with two-bedrooms, a living area, show kitchen, spa treatment room, private pool, garden and Resort Host service.
Suites and villas pay tribute to Oriental design with high ceilings and ornate furnishings, complemented by auspicious vermillion red accents.

The resort will feature world class meeting facilities including a grand ballroom for up to 1,200 cocktail and two conference rooms for seminars, weddings and prestigious social events.
A major attraction is Macau’s first award-winning Banyan Tree Spa, featuring 21 treatment rooms offering the spa’s signature beauty, health and wellness therapies and products.
The 2,800m² haven of indulgence offers “sensory pampering and experiences steeped in holistic Asian healing traditions” alongside two tropical pools.
Four restaurants include the signature Belon Oyster Bar & Grill – complemented by a Banyan Café, Cabana Pool Bar and Banyan Lounge, offering a wide range of gourmet experiences.
Resort guests are also spoilt for choice with more than 50 other restaurants and bars within the Galaxy Macau™ integrated complex.
