You didn’t come to Cambodia to eat Italian food and sleep in a chain hotel. You’re here for the temples, the markets, the Cambodian circus — and checking into a villa at Phum Baitang completes that immersive fantasy.
Guide Michelin, October 2025You'll be reluctant to drag yourself from the plush daybed on your terrace, or from your own palm-shaded plunge pool... And you definitely won't want to leave the 50m pool, where - oh, look! - they've just handed you a lychee chilli martini.
Tatler, December 2016Thatched-roof wooden villas rise up on stilts amid landscaped gardens and paddy fields, and the large swimming pool, like a mirror, reflects the image of towering palms overhead, while travelers sip tea or cocktails at the outdoor bar.
Forbes, September 2016A staggeringly lovely spa has been carved by local stonemasons to resemble a temple, and is run by a delightfully camp Filipino called Mariano. Treatments using organic products are an excellent antidote to interacting with the thousands of visitors who visit Angkor each month.

Hotels Own Introduction
A Tranquil Oasis Near Angkor Wat
Nestled within 20 acres of lush gardens and serene rice paddy fields, our hotel and “green village” sits just on the edge of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Angkor Wat. Inspired by traditional Khmer architecture, our 45 private terrace and pool villas are designed like stilted farmhouses, capturing the essence of Cambodia’s rural charm. Our Spa Temple offers wellness treatments steeped in centuries-old local traditions, providing a serene escape into the heart of Cambodian culture.
Charming Khmer-Inspired Villas
Our spacious, free-standing villas evoke the cultural richness of Cambodia, with a design that honors the rustic beauty of traditional Khmer homes. Featuring separate living areas, private gardens with terraces, and many with private pools, these villas offer a peaceful retreat amidst natural surroundings.
Immersive Experiences Beyond the Pool
Beyond enjoying the open-air infinity pool or watching epic sunsets, there’s much to explore. Visit the 1000-year-old spiritual marvel of Angkor Wat, cruise along the floating homes of Tonlé Sap, or cycle through neighboring villages and rice paddy fields where water buffalo work the land.
Holistic Wellness in a Spa Temple
Inspired by the architecture of Angkor Wat, our holistic wellness spa is set amid tropical gardens and offers traditional Khmer therapies. Relax with treatments that include centuries-old rituals and the unique experience of a water blessing performed by a Buddhist monk.
Culinary Journeys
Savor authentic Cambodian flavors at our two restaurants, Bay Phsar and Hang Bay, which also offer international classics. Guests can enjoy colonial-style cocktails at the Sunset Lounge, tour local markets, and prepare authentic Cambodian dishes using ingredients harvested from the resort’s own garden.
