About the Property

World-renowned resort designer and owner, Bill Bensley, identified an unprotected wildlife corridor connecting the Bokor National Park with Kirirom National Park, and set out to protect this 400 acre river valley from poaching, mining and logging.
Set along 1.5 kilometers of river and waterfalls, fifteen custom-designed tents are perched over the swift-moving waters and waterfalls, providing a view and experience unlike any other resort in Asia.
Each tent has been meticulously designed to invoke the feeling of what it would have been like to be on a luxury safari in the jungles of Cambodia with Jackie O.
Some of the signature activities include:
- Wildlife Alliance Rangers Anti Poaching Patrol
- Butterfly Walk
- Jungle Trekking
- Forest Foraging
- Mountain Biking
- Kayaking
- Expedition Boat
- Bird Watching
- Camera Trap Walk

Regenerative Impact

Funds a Wildlife Alliance ranger station within its camp; guests can join rangers in their diverse work, from dealing with caught animals to arresting poachers and loggers
Shinta Mani Wild employs about 120, 70% are from the local village and some of those were poaching and illegally cutting trees
Meals are centred on foraging; forest-to-table. Foraging jobs bring work for yet more local community members, including former loggers from surrounding villagers
Graduates from Phnom Penh’s Royal University joined as onsite expert naturalists. In future, the camp hopes to run a student program to foster learning and raise awareness of Shinta Mani Wild’s protected habitats
Each of the 15 tent locations were meticulously planned over a seven year period by a process of minimal intervention and understanding the idiosyncrasies of the river valley
Shinta Mani Wild does not have any single-use plastics, including much of the back of house supply chain (which is even more difficult to do). Onsite bottling of their water using recycled containers
Spa, Khmer Tonics celebrate Cambodia with chemical-free tonics made from a unique mix of medicinal plants, herbs and spices present in the surrounding rainforest
