Situated close to the world-renowned UNESCO-protected site of Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, Cambodia, Amansara is the perfect base to explore over one thousand temples. A peaceful haven away from the bustling main road to Angkor, the resort is encircled by forests and rice paddies. Your experience will be novel from the very beginning; guests are picked up in a beautiful 1965 Mercedes from the airport, a nod to the faultless service witnessed across all areas of the resort. The resort is a repository of history and culture, promising an edifying and luxurious stay with all the trappings of a private home. Originally built as a guesthouse for King Sihanouk in 1962, the hotel is fit for royalty.

Twenty four open plan Suites combine indoor and outdoor living with open concept interiors; floor-to-ceiling windows welcome in the light-drenched gardens. Opt for a room with a pool for a refreshing dip following energetic treks. Sandstone reliefs echo those seen at Angkor’s famed ruins, and a minimalist grey and white inform the sleek design. Bathrooms feature luxurious island bath tubs, a serene spot to reflect upon a busy day of spiritual enlightenment and adventurous discovery.

A diverse daily-changing menu showcases robust Cambodian flavours in dishes such as banana blossom chicken salad. Focus is placed upon organic produce, which is sourced from the local markets and suppliers. Indulge cravings at the walk-in wine and cheese cellar. For a truly unique and authentic private dining encounter, a meal at the resort’s rustic Khmer house at Angkor is a charming option; savour cuisine cooked over charcoal while in the midst of village life.
