Amansara, Cambodia
Overview
Originally built as a 1960s royal guesthouse for King Sihanouk, Amansara is now an ultra-exclusive retreat tucked behind high walls just minutes from the temples of Angkor. With just 24 suites and Aman’s signature minimalist elegance, the resort offers an atmosphere of quiet ritual and calm. It’s ideal for travellers seeking privacy, cultural depth, and a seamless link to Cambodia’s spiritual heart.
Each suite is a study in understated luxury – clean lines, terrazzo floors, and sunken courtyards. Twelve Pool Suites offer private plunge pools and garden views, while all include spacious bathrooms and daybeds for reading or reflection. Interiors are warm and restrained, designed to draw focus to the outside world: the sacred ruins, the soft light, the daily rhythms of Siem Reap.
Guided temple excursions are tailored to guests’ interests, with custom itineraries, expert historians, and private sunrise viewings. Khmer cuisine is served in the glass-roofed dining room or poolside, and spa therapies use Cambodian herbs and traditions. Amansara’s intimacy, heritage, and quiet spiritual connection make it one of the most sought-after retreats in Southeast Asia.
