LXRY! HOTELs IN
CAMBODIA
Cambodia is finally on the tourist map and is fast becoming a prominent tropical getaway in Southeast Asia. Its Khmer culture is well known, but there’s far more to see. A short boat ride from the mainland will take you to quiet and untouched islands such as Koh Rong and Koh Kong.
The legacy of Cambodia’s artistic past can still be seen in the handicrafts and silverware found in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh’s bustling markets, where you can discover excellent craftsmanship at excellent prices.
Most travelers to Cambodia will cite the iconic Angkor Wat as one of the reasons they pack their bags for the country. The beautiful and extensive temple ruins of Angkor are a highlight of Siem Reap. Cambodia also has a rather morbid history because of the Khmer Rouge regime, but thankfully the country is a far friendlier place today.
our LXRY! hotel selection
We have some criteria before we can call a hotel a LXRY! Selection Hotel. We want to be surprised, we need luxury and hospitality at a high level, we love the quality of food and the rooms, we think the location is super important, and….we want to memorize the hotel for a lifetime! So you will not find basic chain hotels that look similar in all countries but truly found local gems that are different and memorable.

DISCOVER THE PICTURESQUE PRIVATE ISLAND & LUXURY RESORT
It’s Cambodia, but it’s not the Cambodia you’re expecting. Song Saa Private Island is more the sort of thing the Maldives or Seychelles are known for, or perhaps a post-development luxury-villa version of the Thai island paradise from Alex Garland’s The Beach. This wild speck of a place in the Gulf of Thailand is as close to a state of nature as you’re going to find anywhere, and Song Saa’s twenty-seven villas make the most of their secluded setting — if you’re going to live as a castaway, this is how you do it in style.
Some stand over water on stilts, Fiji-style; others stand on the beach, with the ocean’s waters for a front porch, and still, others nestle on the forested hillside, as sequestered as can be. We won’t bore you with a comprehensive list of fixtures and amenities; suffice it to say that the accommodations do their level best to live up to their sublime surroundings.
And there’s much more to Song Saa than spa treatments and fine Cambodian cuisine. The island’s wilderness awaits, and this is just one of the dozens of islands in the immediate area; seafaring excursions and island explorations are among Song Saa’s highlights. It’s Cambodia like very few people on this Earth have ever experienced it.
A PARADISE and picturesque island resort
Created with sustainability in mind, Song Saa Private Island reflects the beauty of the Cambodian coastline. It’s a place that breathes in time with nature, built from local materials, by local hands, and infused with local art and soul. An evolved tropical getaway with a pristine private beach, spacious wooden villas, heavenly spa sanctuaries, and a preserved coral reef, Song Saa Private Island lets you detach from the world and tune into simple luxuries.
Built with reclaimed timber and materials from the mainland, the resort’s design and architecture reiterate our commitment to sustainability. Each villa is a private sanctuary, a refined blend of thatched roofs, linen-draped canopy beds, up-cycled décor, and repurposed furniture. Discarded oil drums find new life as lamps. Driftwood serves as a table or bench. Salvaged wood from old fishing boats and factory yards now form decks and floors and beams.
Their culinary practice is proudly based on locally sourced ingredients: seasonal fruits and vegetables, wildlife-friendly Ibis rice from farmers in the North, fleshy cashew nuts, and meaty coconuts from nearby villages. Then there’s the distinctive favor of Kampot pepper infusing our cuisine with a truly local culinary twist. We’re happy to cater to guests with dietary restrictions and our vegan and vegetarian dishes are some of our tastiest.
When it comes to wiling away your time, Song Saa lets you be as active or as inert as you like. Idle on our pristine sands or take off on a diving adventure. Take a sunset cruise across dazzling seas or explore our rainforest trails and see our native plants and wildlife. At night, enjoy a quiet dinner for two, then retreat to your villa terrace, clinking glasses under the constellations and wondering how you could ever leave…
