Overwater villas — FAQ

Are the overwater villas really like the Maldives?

Yes — Song Saa's overwater villas are built on stilts above the ocean in the same style. The difference: Cambodia prices, fewer tourists and the unique jungle-meets-sea context of Koh Rong.

How do you combine Song Saa with Angkor Wat?

Fly into Siem Reap for Angkor Wat, then take a 1-hour flight to Sihanoukville, followed by a speedboat to Song Saa. A classic Cambodia itinerary: jungle temples + overwater island.

What is the Song Saa Foundation?

Song Saa established Cambodia's first marine protected area around the Koh Rong Archipelago, protecting the reef and supporting local communities. Staying at the resort directly funds these conservation efforts.
