Navutu Dreams Resort and Wellness Retreat

Nestled down a quiet country lane just minutes from the bright lights of Siem Reap, Navutu is indeed a dream resort. Boasting extensive gardens, with footpaths that meander lazily through the property, the resort is a tranquil haven from the large crowds at nearby Angkor Wat. Single-story, Mediterranean-inspired bungalows offer ample privacy and many include living areas and baths big enough for two, while three swimming pools – a saltwater lounge pool, a freshwater sports pool and a lagoon – guarantee plenty of space to splash around. Navutu encourages guests to make use of its holistic approach to health, with daily yoga classes at the on-site shala, a vegetarian-friendly menu, and intensive wellness programs that sport names like ‘the 5-Day Burnout Program'.
