New Villa Resort in Southern Cambodia
New Villa Resort in Southern Cambodia
As part of the region’s exciting transformation, a new boutique villa resort recently opened in the Southern Cambodian province of Kep. Samanea Beach Resort and Spa is a four-star seaside property featuring 12 spacious villas nestled in a protected mangrove area, with a private beach and 300-sqm swimming pool. The resort has exceptional views of the Bay of Thailand, Phu Quoc Island and Bokor Mountain.
Built around a colonial-era cottage, the property remains true to its heritage with the use of brick, stone and cement elements throughout. The sumptuous natural surroundings are a highlight of this resort, where each villa overlooks picturesque gardens filled with tropical plants.
Those seeking adventure can experience trekking tours and bike rides along the Kep National Park Trail or explore caves, including the impressive Kompong Trach Cave which has enchanting limestone formations and an adjoining bathing rockpool.
For local cultural discovery, we suggest a pepper plantation to see how this world-famous spice is produced, a lively market to sample Kep’s delicious crabs or the attractive riverside town of Kampot, famed for its quaint 19th century French colonial-era architecture.
