A Sanctuary of Sustainability, Sea, and Seclusion
Song Saa Private Island is Cambodia’s pioneering luxury hideaway - a serene sanctuary nestled in the Koh Rong archipelago, where sustainability meets sophistication in a dance of sea and forest. Each of the 24 hand-crafted villas - overwater, jungle, or ocean-view - is a private retreat, designed from reclaimed timber and driftwood, adorned with local lanterns, and crowned with lush nature all around.
Begin your day with a sunrise yoga class on a beachfront pavilion, the sea breathing gently below. Later, explore coral gardens by kayak or snorkel, discovering rainbow fish, turtles, and seahorses in clear lagoon waters. Wander rainforest paths that loop through lush canopy alive with birdsong and hidden wildlife. At twilight, sip cocktails at the Vista Overwater Lounge, hearing the water lap softly below as you feel miles from ordinary life.
Culinary experiences emphasize local bounty - Kampot pepper crusted seafood, organic rice, and island-harvested coconut prepared with finesse. Wellness rituals are equally immersive: spa treatments under canopies, meditation deck sessions at dawn, and eco-programmes alongside Song Saa Foundation's marine conservation projects. The island is more than a destination - it’s a living consciousness, offering luxury with conscience, privacy with purpose.

There’s a sacred calm here that transforms you. I wake with the birds and walk the silent beaches at dawn, then paddle to coral reefs teeming with life. Later, I’ll join a conservation talk led by Song Saa Foundation, learning about turtles and mangrove restoration. My evenings end under lanterns with seafood gently grilled, the sea murmuring beyond. It’s barefoot luxury with purpose - quiet, profound, and beautifully balanced.
