Samanea Beach Resort & Spa

Samanea Beach Resort & Spa – The Soul of Natural Luxury in Kep

A Hidden Gem on Cambodia’s Southern Coast

Set between lush jungle and the emerald waters of the Gulf of Thailand, Samanea Beach Resort & Spa is a sanctuary of serenity in the coastal town of Kep, a former French colonial retreat experiencing a graceful revival. Nestled within a two-hectare tropical estate bordered by a private beach and a protected mangrove, this intimate resort offers more than just a getaway—it invites travelers to experience tranquility, authenticity, and understated luxury.

Inspired Architecture in Harmony with Nature

Designed as a tribute to Cambodia’s cultural and natural heritage, Samanea blends traditional aesthetics with contemporary comfort. Each spacious villa is tucked into the greenery, offering refined decor, natural materials, and open views of the lush surroundings.
Inside, the villas are airy and elegant, with high wooden ceilings, locally crafted furnishings, premium bedding, and open-air bathrooms that invite nature in—every detail thoughtfully curated to ensure that luxury feels organic and effortlessly serene.

Oceanfront Relaxation for Body and Mind

Water is at the heart of the Samanea experience: a stunning infinity pool facing the sea, a garden spa offering traditional treatments, and a peaceful beach where the only soundtrack is the sound of the waves. Guests can enjoy holistic massages, wellness rituals, and sunrise yoga sessions in a setting designed for ultimate relaxation.
As evening falls, the sun dips over Kep Bay, casting golden light across the water—a perfect moment to savor a signature cocktail from the comfort of your lounger or the restaurant’s terrace.

Refined Dining, Rooted in Khmer Flavors

The Samanea Restaurant celebrates the richness of Cambodian cuisine with an elegant twist. Fresh seafood from Kep’s famous crab market, herbs from the resort’s organic garden, and tropical fruits are turned into inventive, delicate dishes that delight the palate.
For those curious to dive deeper into local gastronomy, Khmer cooking classes are also offered—an opportunity to bring a taste of Cambodia home with you.

Five-Star Hospitality, Warm and Attentive

What truly sets Samanea apart, beyond its breathtaking setting, is its commitment to exceptional service. Warm, discreet, and highly personalized, the staff anticipates every need with genuine Khmer hospitality. From the moment you arrive to the time you leave, every detail is handled with care, allowing you to simply unwind and enjoy every moment.

Tailor-Made Experiences and Cultural Discoveries

Kep is more than a beach destination—it’s a gateway to culture, nature, and adventure. The resort offers exclusive, bespoke excursions: treks through Kep National Park, boat trips to nearby islands, visits to Kampot’s world-renowned pepper plantations, local craft markets, and hidden temples.
