Luxury Holidays At Amansara

Escape to a world uninterrupted by modern-day stresses and technologies. Amansara's size, along with the fact that there is no gym or television in the resort, encourages a laid-back pace, adding to the serenity and tranquillity to be experienced. Formerly the guest villa of King Norodom Sihanouk, Amansara has been refurbished as an intimate all-suite resort and its open-plan guest suites combine living and sleeping areas, light-filled bathrooms overlook a private courtyard and twelve suites also include a private pool. Amansara's Guides are experts on ancient Khmer history and modern Cambodian life and are happy to escort guests on temple tours of Angkor Wat.

Why Amansara is so special...

keyboard_arrow_left

Culture & History

Just ten minutes from the entrance to the Angkor Wat UNESCO World Heritage Site, Amansara is perfectly placed for early-morning and late-afternoon outings to the temple complex of Angkor Wat, avoiding the sun and the crowds. These complimentary outings utilise Amansara's own fleet of remorks (moped-powered trishaws) and guests are accompanied by their very own Amansara Driver and English-speaking Guide, who is well-informed on Cambodia's history. In addition, more bespoke, off-the-beaten-path excursions, conducted to suit the individual's pace, can be arranged, depending on individual interests.

Hotel Experiences

Accompany Amansara's kitchen brigade to the local market, teeming with fresh produce, and visit a noodle shop to watch as fresh rice noodles, nom ben chok, are prepared before you. Afterwards, in the Khmer Village House, join a Khmer chef in the preparation of a traditional Khmer dish, which can easily be re-created at home.

Hotel Experiences at Amansara

Romance

Overlooking an ancient royal bathing pool, Amansara's Khmer Village House is an enchanting spot for breakfasts and birdsong or private candlelit dinners, the temples bathed in deep copper tones as the sun sinks to bed. Meals for two can also be arranged inside a temple, with dancers and musicians. Enjoy brunch, lunch or sundowners and drift across Tonlé Sap, a huge freshwater lake sprinkled with stilted and floating villages - a chance to glimpse local life, as well as rich flora and fauna. Alternatively, have fun on bikes, pedaling around pagodas and paddy fields.

Spa Breaks

Four treatment rooms, each with an attached relaxation area and private steam bath and shower, are available to provide guests with a range of massage and beauty treatments using Cambodian techniques and natural products. Each treatment and relaxation room looks out onto a reflection pond.

Climate

Characterised by a dry, warm climate, November to April is generally the best time to visit Siem Reap. During the rest of the year, days can be wetter and more humid, though there are often less crowds and still plenty of sunshine.

Getting There

British Airways and Thai Airways International from London Heathrow to Bangkok, with onward connecting flights to Siem Reap.
 

The Temples of Angkor

Often the main allure of visitors to Siem Reap, the Angkor Complex comprises a selection of ancient temples that are a source of national pride and a point of pilgrimage for all Cambodian people. The best known and best-preserved site in the complex is Angkor Wat, a Hindu temple that symbolises Mt. Meru, home of the religion’s ancient gods. The largest religious building in the world, Angkor Wat is more like a city than a temple, combining symmetry and spirituality, while surrounded by a striking moat. Another highlight of the complex is Angkor Thom, once an entire walled city with a population of one million, and the Royal Capital from 1181. The centre piece is Bayon temple, crowned with 216 giant smiling faces of King Jayavarman VII. Another of Angkor’s jewels is the fig-covered Ta Phrom, built in 1186 as a Buddhist temple. One of the largest temple sites in Angkor, it took almost 80,000 people to maintain. We can arrange once-in-a-lifetime experiences at the Angkor temples– whether a sunrise breakfast as you sail along a temple moat, or a guided tour with a Khmer scholar.

The Temples of Angkor
Tonle Sap Lake

The largest freshwater lake in South East Asia, a boat trip on Tonle Sap invites you to experience authentic Cambodia as you pass fishermen in their trawlers - a huge amount of the country’s fish comes from the lake, making it an important commercial resource - and unique floating villages that comprise not only stilted houses, but schools, restaurants and more suspended over the water.

Tonle Sap Lake
APOPO Visitor Centre

APOPO is a special NGO that works with African Giant Pouched Rats (also known as Hero Rats), teaching them to detect landmines and tuberculosis using their extraordinary sense of smell. APOPO’s training and research centre is based in Tanzania with over 220 people across 7 projects in 6 countries, of which Cambodia is a key site. APOPO’s Siem Reap visitor centre is located on the road to Angkor Wat and gives you the opportunity to learn about how the Hero Rats use their remarkable sense of smell to clear rural areas of landmines after decades of conflict. The Hero Rats are too light to detonate landmines so face no risk. A special behind-the-scenes experience also gives you the chance to meet the rats and their handlers to experience first-hand how they clear a mockup mine field, as well as offering a great photo opportunity together. They enjoy spacious, cool lodgings at the centre with plenty of fresh fruit and attention from their keepers. They never work for longer than 3-4 hours a day and have sun cream carefully applied to their ears and tails while on duty. They typically retire after 4 years of service.
