A river-bound hideaway in Cambodia’s deep green

Shinta Mani Wild is tucked into Cambodia’s rainforest, stretched along a river valley where the light comes filtered through canopy and the pace is set by water, not the clock. It feels wonderfully removed, the kind of retreat where the outside world goes quiet fast.

The camp reveals itself in pockets along timber walkways and jungle paths, and for those who like a playful entrance, there’s a zipline that sweeps you in over the river and drops you beside the Landing Zone bar with a grin already in place.

With only 15 tented suites, it stays beautifully intimate. These are generous indoor-outdoor spaces dressed in polished teak, bold textiles, and curated details that feel collected, not staged. Each suite comes with a terrace made for slow hours, plus an open-air roll-top bath that turns the return from the forest into a ritual. Choose a waterfall setting and the night arrives with its own steady soundtrack.
