Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas is to add Cambodia to its portfolio of luxury island escapes with the opening of Six Senses Krabey Island next year.

Located on the intimate island of Krabey, the resort is comprised of 40 luxury pool villas set around the 30-acre island. A short water transfer will ferry guests from the mainland reception to the island.

The resort’s private pool villas exemplify Six Senses’ commitment to using sustainable material while embracing modern technology. Living rooms will include a day bed that can be adapted to an additional bed, minibar and working desk. The master bedroom will feature a bed with a netting canopy while the bathroom houses a generous bathtub. Some villas will also feature outdoor showers.

An all-day restaurant will serve a fresh breakfast buffet and a la carte options, a la carte lunches and seasonally themed dinners. The resort’s specialty dining restaurant, Indochine, will include a communal dining table in front of the show kitchen. Snacks, refreshments and light meals are available poolside, while a deli and elevated bar are also planned.

The on-site spa will offer guests ancient Cambodian healing traditions and multi-day rejuvenation journeys, as well as Six Senses Integrative Wellness, detox, yoga and workshops. The resort will also include a full-service boutique with clothing, beachwear, accessories and local products for men, women and children.

“We are delighted to add this gorgeous gem to our portfolio of island escapes,” said Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas President Bernhard Bohnenberger. “It is a great pleasure to align with a like-minded and committed owner when it comes to sustainability and wellness. RPB Investment company based in Cambodia has taken careful steps to preserve and protect the island of Krabey and is also employing thoughtful and conscientious design into the project’s building practices. We are eager to offer an enticing holiday option and new destination to travelers bound for Cambodia and Southeast Asia.”
