Maldives of Cambodia - 5 Star Private Island

Song Saa is a private island resort of Cambodia providing ultra-luxurious villas designed into the jungle over the sea. The food is fabulous, there’s a soporific spa, and a ravishingly restful atmosphere. Rates are expensive, but include all meals and most drinks. Worth saving up for.
Location
This teeny-tiny resort, opened in 2012, is dotted across 2 islands within the secluded Koh Rong archipelago. The surroundings is pristine, with untouched stretches of golden sands circled above by colourful hornbills, and around by clear calm waters teeming with tropical fish. It’s somewhat of an odyssey to get here though - you’ll got to take an internal flight from Siem Reap or a four-hour road trip from Phnom Penh, followed by a 30-minute ride on the resort’s motorboat from the port city of Sihanoukville.



Style and character

Song Saa combines luxury and a strong conservationist philosophy without pretensions. Sitting within the middle of a 100-hectare marine reserve (which Song Saa helped to establish), guests can stroll along sun-bleached wood walkways to an over-water restaurant, a champagne bar and also the hilltop Ila spa (stay for more than 5 nights and a pile of wellness treatments are included in the price). There’s additionally a water-sports centre, where magical experiences abound, from morning snorkels around coral reefs in search of seahorses, to afternoon kayaking through shady mangroves with the resident marine biologist, to night-time dips in bio-luminescent waters.
