Situated in Siem Reap, the cultural capital of Cambodia, Amansara lies just 10 minutes from the entrance to Angkor Wat. Once the guest villa of King Norodom Sihanouk, today this walled garden estate serves as a tranquil 24-suite retreat with the ambience of a gracious home. Just a 15-minute drive from Siem Reap airport, Amansara provides an ideal base for exploring the Unesco-protected temples of Angkor, and discovering Khmer culture.

Similar in design, each suite enjoys an open-plan layout and a private courtyard.

Serving a menu of Khmer and Western cuisines, it includes a walk-in wine and cheese cellar and a casual lounging area. The Roof Terrace offers a seasonal venue for early or late evening drinks and private dinners. Taking advantage of the resort’s tranquil setting is the Aman Spa, which overlooks an ancient rain tree.

Set in Ise Shima National Park, Amanemu (‘peaceful joy’) is perched on the rolling shores of Ago Bay, known as the Bay of Pearls – an expanse of blue, dotted with islets and home to drifting oyster rafts. Lying south of Tokyo, two hours by train from Nagoya or 25 minutes by private helicopter, the resort borders ancient pilgrimage routes winding through nearby forests, with Japan’s most sacred Shinto shrines within easy reach. Amanemu embraces a classic Japanese aesthetic, giving the resort the feel of an exclusive sanctuary at one with nature. The ancient Japanese tradition of onsen (mineral hot springs) is ever-present, and the Aman Spa is an integral part of Amanemu. Offering an enriching guest experience centred on wellness and tradition, it features two exclusive onsen pavilions drawing nutrient-rich water from nearby hot springs, four treatment rooms and a Watsu pool. A gym, yoga pavilion and Pilates studio round out the facilities. The benefits of onsen can also be enjoyed in each of Amanemu’s 24 suites, and in its four two-bedroom villas. Each features a private plunge-bath supplied with water drawn from the same natural hot springs as the Aman Spa. Identical in layout and design, Amanemu’s 99-square-metre suites present combined bedroom and living areas and expansive decks. Suites are divided into three different categories depending on their outlooks: Mori Suites are surrounded by indigenous vegetation with tranquil green views; Sora Suites are situated closer to the coast with peaceful green views towards Ago Bay; closest to the shore, Nagi Suites offer the best views of Ago Bay. The four two-bedroom villas, two with private gardens, offer similar views with additional living areas. Situated in a region renowned for its gourmet heritage, from seafood to Matsusaka beef, Amanemu presents two restaurants celebrating this local abundance. Other facilities include a private marina club

Ulusaba is Sir Richard Branson’s private game reserve in South Africa.
