Groundbreaking Ceremony: Banyan Tree Residences Sichon Begins a New Era

February 2025 saw a landmark moment as Banyan Tree Residences Sichon held its official groundbreaking ceremony in Nakhon Si Thammarat. Local officials, tourism leaders, and executives from Urasaya Property and Banyan Group gathered on Sichon Beach to inaugurate the start of construction for this ultra-luxury beachfront villa enclave. With shovels in hand, the partners celebrated more than just building commencement – they heralded a new chapter for Sichon real estate and tourism. The development of 15 exclusive pool villas is poised to redefine Southern Thailand’s resort landscape, bringing absolute beachfront luxury to an area often likened to Phuket in its early days.

Speakers at the ceremony noted the region’s bright future, fuelled by improving infrastructure and global interest in emerging Thai destinations. “It reminds me of Phuket 30 years ago,” remarked Ravi Chandran, Executive Director of Urasaya Property, suggesting that Nakhon Si Thammarat is on a similarly promising trajectory. With panoramic ocean views, sustainable design, and five-star amenities on the horizon, Banyan Tree Residences Sichon’s groundbreaking sent a strong signal to investors that Sichon is on the rise – and that this project is leading the way.
