Explore Cambodia's rich treasures.
A Cambodia honeymoon provides a uniquely immersive experience, combining intimate luxury, rich cultural heritage, and pristine natural landscapes - from witnessing the ethereal sunrise over Angkor Wat to relaxing on secluded beaches or in boutique jungle lodges.
Cambodia offers a honeymoon experience that feels truly curated for two, combining barefoot luxury with intimate cultural discovery. Whether you choose a boutique jungle lodge hidden among lush greenery or a serene retreat on a pristine white-sand beach, every moment can be crafted to celebrate connection, relaxation, and adventure. This is a destination where romance is in the rhythm of daily life, from dawn-lit temples to riverside sunsets.
Begin your honeymoon in Siem Reap with one of the world’s most iconic bucket-list experiences: sunrise over Angkor Wat. Sharing this magical, early-morning moment creates a memory that will stay with you forever. Siem Reap also offers a wide spectrum of accommodation, from luxury hotels with all the indulgences you could wish for to properties nestled within the town’s lively energy, perfect for couples who want a mix of culture, exploration, and nightlife.
Journey to Kampot, a region famed for its pepper plantations and gently rolling landscapes. The vistas alone make it an unforgettable honeymoon stop, but the pace and atmosphere of this riverside town add an extra layer of romance. I recommend staying at The Amber Kampot, where private pool villas sit quietly along the river, offering a secluded retreat while remaining close enough to enjoy the charming local dining scene and a sunset drink by the water. It’s an intimate setting that blends tranquillity with understated luxury.
Complete your Cambodian honeymoon with a stay on Koh Rong, where unspoiled beaches and charming fishing villages create the perfect backdrop for ultimate relaxation. Here, you can unwind together, wandering along untouched sands, swimming in clear turquoise waters, and savouring freshly caught seafood in a tranquil village setting. Picture romantic beach picnics on powdery shores, evenings spent watching the sun sink into the horizon, and lazy days simply enjoying each other’s company in a serene paradise. It’s the perfect finale to a journey that blends adventure, culture, and romance seamlessly, leaving you with memories to treasure for a lifetime.
