Bensley Collection
Shinta Mani Siem Reap

There are Instagram-worthy bold, sumptuous and vibrant surprises at every turn, as well as private rooftop gardens, lavish outdoor tubs, Art Deco-tiled lap pools and fabulous butlers. The only trouble with this veritable Eden is that you won't want to do anything (after all, you can get massages in your villa).

Evoking the lush opulence of the ancient Khmer Kingdom blended with bright pops of colour and sweeping design details, Shinta Mani Angkor - Bensley Collection features 10 villa compounds each with their own private pool, rooftop Sky Garden and indoor/outdoor bathroom.

From the Cardamom Mountains to the streets of Siem Reap, one of the region's best-known hotel designers is helping to raise the bar for responsible tourism.

Known as the “Willy Wonka of hotels”, there was certainly nothing hindering his imagination in Siem Reap, with high-walled facades at the villas that reference Khmer culture, featuring the supposed rippling robes of 12th-century Khmer king Jayvarman. 

In the wilds of Cambodia, a legendary hotel designer finds the mission of a lifetime.

Zehn Luxusvillen mit Dachterrassen, messinggelegten Hartholzböden und steinernen Badewannen in üppigen privaten Gärten, umfasst von Mauern, die an die wogenden Gewänder der Khmer-Könige erinnern.

Longtemps il a été tentant de résumer le Cambdoge à la cité de pierre d'Angkor… de nouvelles adresses invitent aujourd'hui à découvrir d'autres facettes du pays.
