A statement property nestled in the heart of Kep, Cambodia, Samanea Beach Resort & Spa serves as both a serene botanical escape and a vibrant estuary gateway. Overlooking the shimmering waters of the Kompong Bay River-an expanse that blends the peaceful ambiance of a protected mangrove forest with watersport adventures-the resort invites guests into a world of refined contemporary opulence. Entering the lobby, the swoon-worthy design will meet your gaze: fetching geometric patterns and the judicious use of marble create an immediate sense of elegance. It's a bold opening act to an experience laced with sophistication. As you move through the property, the interplay of indoor and outdoor spaces captivates. Indulge in culinary delights at the rooftop terrace, where panoramic views enhance the gastronomic pleasures presented by the acclaimed Chankiri restaurant, a nod to Kep-sur-Mer's illustrious past. The allure of dining options stretches beyond the terrace; beachside, poolside, or even at a private jetty, each meal becomes a feast for the senses, framed by stunning natural backdrops. And for true relaxation, the 300sqm infinity pool with integrated Jacuzzi jets promises refreshing dips against the backdrop of Phu Quoc Island and the Gulf of Thailand.

Explore the Local Area

Samanea Beach Resort is centrally positioned to explore both history and nature. A mere short drive away, the atmospheric remnants of the old casino echo Cambodia's colonial days. Nearby, Bokor National Park offers an 8km circuit winding through lush forest, marred only by the breathtaking views afforded at various peaks. Additionally, discover the charm of nearby Kep Beach, now a pristine stretch of imported white sand, and meander along its rejuvenated coastline. Local attractions abound; you might stroll through the quaint Kep Market, visit the Crab Statue, or take in majestic waterfalls. The blend of culture and nature paints a picture of what makes this region a traveler's treasure trove. Conveniently, Sihanoukville International Airport lies 100km away, allowing easy access for both international and domestic travelers.
