In Cambodia’s untouched Koh Rong Archipelago, two pristine islands lie side by side. They are known locally as Song Saa – Khmer for “The Sweethearts.”

The resort spans the islands of Koh Ouen and Koh Bong, connected by a footbridge over a marine reserve that has been established to safeguard the island’s reefs and marine life, including dugongs, seahorses, and exotic species of tropical fish. The resort comprises 27 intimate villas built from sustainable materials and in perfect harmony with the natural environment; uncompromising on luxury and designed to reflect the natural surroundings’ simple beauty. Guest can choose from Jungle, Oceanview, or Overwater Villas.

Highly individual in design, the resort is inspired by Cambodian fishing villages with features such as over-water buildings, thatch roofs, rough-hewn natural timbers, and drift wood furnishings. Guests can enjoy uninterrupted sunrise or sunset views from their Overwater, Ocean View, or Jungle Villa, complete with private pools and all the creature comforts discerning travelers have come to expect. Each villa promises a sanctuary where guests can shower looking out over the ocean, sip cocktails whilst watching the sunset from their private decks, or have the resort’s chef pampering them with fresh seafood under the stars.

The resort’s heart will be a world-class restaurant and lounge spectacularly positioned over the ocean to take in dramatic sunsets, seascapes, and starry nights.

A host of guest activities will be offered to authentically showcase the surrounding archipelago, its staggering scenery, and innately friendly people. Kayaking up freshwater estuaries, hiking through virgin rainforest, snorkeling with the resort’s marine biologists, Khmer cooking lessons, and visiting local fishing villages will all be part of the Song Saa experience.
