Banyan Tree Launches Private Wellbeing Immersion Programs

Banyan Tree Group is launching “Banyan Tree Connections”, a private wellbeing immersion for two at four selected locations beginning this May – Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru (Maldives), Banyan Tree Phuket (Thailand), Banyan Tree Mayakoba (Mexico), and Banyan Tree Anji (China).

Available as an add-on to room reservations, Banyan Tree Connections feature movement, mindfulness and shared rituals that are to nurture both relationships and inner well-being.

The news is in line with a recent Skyscanner.ca study that revealed 60% of Canadian travellers say they feel more mindful about their health and well-being than ever before with 74% saying they believe holidays can help build resilience and strength so they’re better able to handle the stresses of everyday life.

“In a world where time together is increasingly fragmented, genuine connection is becoming rare. Banyan Tree Connections was created in response to this universal longing—offering experiences that nurture relationships, inner wellbeing and shared renewal in some of the world’s most awe-inspiring settings,” says Paul Hawco, Executive Director, Integrated Wellbeing, Banyan Group.

“Banyan Tree has always been a Sanctuary for the Senses, where each moment is infused with intimacy and a deep connection to the local culture. This programme reflects our belief that wellbeing is not just individual, but flourishes in togetherness..”

Each destination offers distinctive experiences that reflect its natural and cultural essence, making every journey unique.

Beginning July 2025 at the popular Canadian favourite Banyan Tree Mayakoba, Mexico guests can experience Mayan-inspired wellbeing through 2- and 3-night programmes. Guests can flow through Private Yoga Duo, Mangrove Movement, and Drum Breathwork Meditation, embracing the rhythms of the natural world. Renewal unfolds through a Temazcal purification ritual, Herbal Oil & Reflexology Workshop, and Time Together Spa Treatment. A private mangrove kayaking journey invites quiet reflection, while a Recycled Paper Workshop encourages creativity and sustainability.
