This eye-pleasing resort built entirely from natural materials is a real stunner, perched atop a hill near Wat Hanchey, 20km north of Kompong Cham. A matrix of bamboo forms the open-air restaurant and yoga studio (daily classes are included in the rates), while the 10 bungalows have thatched roofs shaped like turtle shells. There's also a block of stylish dorms.
The resort is a hospitality training centre set up by the NGO Buddhism for Social Development Action, so despite the high price point, a certain degree of patience is required.
