Riverside tented camp
Riverside tented camp
The camp runs like an intimate safari outpost in the Cambodian forest, with personal assistants looking after just eight tents.
“book a safari-style tent at The Beige (where even the floating forest pool has views of the World Heritage site) for a slight splurge.”

Also in AFAR.
the tents are villa-sized, air-conditioned, with private terraces and luxurious indoor-outdoor baths.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Angkor Thom sits ten minutes to the south, and quiet riverbanks and woodland surround the camp.
The rooms
Canvas walls roll up onto private timber decks with swinging daybeds. Bathrooms open to the forest with freestanding soaking tubs.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The infinity pool is suspended five meters above the ground, lined with cushioned daybeds under canvas cabanas.
The spa
Tented forest pavilions host traditional Khmer massages and body wraps made with Japanese green tea.
At the table
Open safari tents shelter picnic-style tables, where meals are prepared using organic vegetables from the camp's farm.
How it began
Japanese founders opened the camp in 2017, later helping build a school and library for the neighboring village.
