Sleeping in the Jungle: A Refined Jungle Getaway
Immerse Yourself: Banyan Tree's Mandai Rainforest Resort Brings Jungle to Your Private Refuge
If you're searching for a luxurious escape from the hustle and bustle of Singapore, look no further than Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree. Shockingly, this highly anticipated hotel opening of the year is nestled deep within the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, far away from the ever-expanding hospitality cluster of Orchard Road.
This resort, cradled by lush greenery and surrounded by the city's revered wildlife parks (Singapore Zoo, Night Safari, River Wonders, Bird Paradise, and Rainforest Wild Asia), promises an unparalleled jungle retreat for nature enthusiasts. The prospect of serendipitous animal encounters aside, the resort's enchanting biophilic design and opulent rooms, courtesy of Banyan Tree, will envelop you in a tranquility almost impossible to find elsewhere in the city.
Design that Captivates
The resort boasts an impressive 338 rooms, with its treehouse suites being the epitome of luxury. These treehouse masterpieces, crafted by local architecture firm WOW Architects, harmoniously blend with the surrounding landscape, seeming as though nature itself has sprouted these pod-shaped retreats. Utilizing natural materials and organic shapes, these treehouses are the pinnacle of biophilic design, merging perfectly with their forest setting.
But creating a harmonious balance with nature doesn't stop at aesthetics. Mandai Rainforest Resort goes the extra mile to ensure minimal disturbance to the environment and its native wildlife. The resort is elevated several meters off the ground, allowing wild animals to move freely around the site, and more than half the existing trees remain to further enhance biodiversity.
Energy-saving measures, such as the use of natural ventilation, mixed-mode air-conditioning, and solar panels, can be found in every room and common space. To top it off, guests are educated on sustainable practices and their importance for preserving biodiversity, earning the resort its esteemed Green Mark Super Low Energy (SLE) certification by the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) in Singapore.
The Perfect Itinerary
The opulence of the rooms is unmatched, making it a challenge to peel yourself away from their enveloping comfort. However, don't miss out on exploring the wonders of wildlife that await you outside. After all, a indulgent spa day at the Banyan Tree Spa is the ideal warm-up for an enchanting evening of exploration.
We recommend spending your first night at the Night Safari, just a leisurely stroll from the resort. The amphitheater's Creatures of the Night show will showcase an adorable array of nocturnal animals, each exhibiting their talents with panache - from ridiculously charming porcupines to utterly adorable raccoons.
The animal encounters don't stop there; the following morning, delve into the enchanting world of the Singapore Zoo during their Breakfast in the Wild experience. Here, you'll find yourself face-to-face with orangutans while enjoying a delicious morning meal. This unique and carefully controlled experience promises an unforgettable start to your day of wildlife exploration.
As the night falls, there will be no place you'd rather return to than the comfort of your room, waiting just a mere 10-minute stroll away beneath the balmy evening air.
