Koh Rong Archipelago

Luxury Koh Rong Travel

Boasting blue waters and sugary, white-sand beaches, the Koh Rong islands are an idyllic place to unwind, especially at the end of Southeast Asia travel. While this string of islands offers plenty of watersport adventures, it’s really all about kicking back at one of the region’s refined, beachside properties. The archipelago makes a great addition to Cambodia travel for honeymooners and sun seekers.

For a private island experience, arrive by boat at Song Saa, a small, barefoot luxury resort boasting overwater bungalows and ocean-view villas. (Pictured above.) Snorkel or kayak the surrounding waters, greet the sunrise with morning yoga, bask in a traditional Buddhist blessing ceremony, or simply take in the sea views with a glass of wine or cold beer in hand. At Six Senses Krabey Island, indulge in a private beach picnic, sunset cruise, cooking class, or a nighttime swim through shimmering bioluminescent water.

On the main island of Koh Rong, you’ll enjoy a pristine and expansive, palm-dotted beach at The Royal Sands Koh Rong. Explore surrounding islands, soak up the sun on a paddle board, book a massage, or take a refreshing dip in your villa’s private pool—you’re on beach time here.

Sun-seekers take note: March, April, and May observe the hottest temperatures, usually in the low 90s. Related reading: The Best Time to Visit Cambodia.
