This is a tented hotel on the outskirts of Siem Reap, quite unique, and we had a very good two-night stay. Monica's service was exceptionally attentive. My husband fell off his motorcycle during the trip, and because of the hot weather, the wound was slow to heal and became somewhat infected. Monica treated his wound and applied medication twice a day, and it improved significantly. We are very grateful for Monica's help.
Because it's a tented hotel, there were a lot of mosquitoes. The hotel provides mosquito repellent spray, and the beds have mosquito nets. However, there were still many mosquitoes. I brought my own electric mosquito repellent, so there weren't many mosquitoes in the room. Note that the hotel doesn't provide electric mosquito repellent, so if this is a concern, you should prepare accordingly.
The hotel has buffalo and elephants, which you can interact with. I read previous guests' feedback that the interaction between people and nature was very friendly. However, during our stay, the hotel mentioned that the elephants were quite large, and we could only see them at the elephant enclosure. When we arrived at the elephant enclosure, one elephant was kept inside, and it looked very pitiful and lonely. The hotel provides a basket of fruit to feed the elephants, but I felt the elephant might be sick, as it seemed to be struggling to eat. After seeing the elephants, my friend and I felt very sad. We had assumed the elephants roamed freely in the camp. Now, they've lost their freedom, left for people to admire and feed.
The hotel breakfast was delicious, and the dinner was also good, though the price was relatively expensive compared to Cambodia. However, for a luxury safari hotel, the price was quite reasonable. We ate at the hotel for two nights, and including drinks, it cost $110 USD per meal for three people.
Many guests reported being bored. Having stayed four nights in the city and basically seen all the sights, we wanted a quiet place to relax for two days. So, we weren't bored at all. We slept, read, listened to the rain, swam, watched the buffalo, and took photos; the two days passed quickly.
Regarding the loud music from the nearby villagers, it's true that it happens every morning and evening. Perhaps I managed my expectations, but I didn't find it very noisy. I have very poor sleep and usually wear earplugs to bed; with earplugs, it was very quiet.
