Rates and booking
How much does the villa cost?
$250 per night for the entire villa, or $1,500 per week for stays of 7 nights or more. Longer stays are $3,500 per month, or $2,500 per month on a six-month contract. Whichever rate works out cheaper is the rate you pay.
Is there a minimum stay?
One night. Long-term contracts start at six months.
Is there a security deposit?
Not for nightly or weekly stays. Long-term contracts require a deposit of one to two months, confirmed in the contract. Guests bringing pets on a nightly or weekly stay pay a $100 refundable pet deposit.
How do I pay?
We accept KHQR and ABA. We ask for 50% to confirm your booking, with the balance paid on arrival.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancel 14 days or more before check-in and your deposit is refunded, less transfer fees. Between 7 and 14 days, half the deposit is refunded. Inside 7 days the deposit is not refunded. For long-term contracts, cancelling before move-in forfeits one month, and ending the contract early after move-in forfeits the security deposit.
Do you rent long-term?
Yes. Long-term is $3,500 per month without a contract, or $2,500 per month on a minimum six-month contract with a deposit of one to two months. Message us and we will walk you through the terms.
How do I book?
Send us your dates on Telegram or WhatsApp, or use the booking form on this site. We usually reply within the hour.
The villa
Can I rent just one room?
No. We rent the villa as a whole property only. You will never share it with other guests.
How many people can stay?
Up to 12 guests across 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. Please tell us in advance if your group is larger.
Is WiFi included?
Yes, WiFi is free on all nightly and weekly stays. For long-term tenants, WiFi is included for the remainder of the villa’s current subscription; after that you renew directly with the internet provider on a 6 or 12 month term.
Is cleaning included?
On nightly and weekly stays, yes — we clean twice a week at no charge. Long-term stays do not include cleaning, but we can arrange it at $50 per clean whenever you want it.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, pets are welcome. Nightly and weekly stays take a $100 refundable pet deposit, returned at check-out. On long-term stays, any damage to furniture is deducted from the security deposit.
Is breakfast included?
No. The villa has two full kitchens and a local market is nearby if you prefer to cook. We are happy to recommend good restaurants.
Can I have a party or event at the villa?
Please ask us first. The villa is in a quiet private community, so we ask guests to keep noise down after 10:00 PM and to clear any event with us in advance.
Is the pool private?
Yes. The pool is yours alone for your entire stay. It is covered by a clear roof and runs an overflow filter, so it stays clean year-round including through the rainy season. There is no lifeguard, so children must be supervised by an adult.
Getting here and around
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM and check-out is 11:00 AM.
Can I check out late?
Yes, up to 2:00 PM at no charge whenever we have no arrival that day — just ask the night before. Beyond 2:00 PM we charge one full night ($250), so if you have a late flight it is usually better value to book the extra night and keep the villa all day.
Do you offer airport pickup?
Yes, at $50 per vehicle each way, carrying up to 6 passengers. The airport is 45 km from the villa. A group of 12 needs two vehicles, so $100 each way.
How far is the villa from Angkor Wat?
About 7 km, roughly 15 minutes by car or tuk-tuk. Pub Street is 4.3 km away and there is a hospital 500 m from the villa.
Can I rent a car or bicycle?
Yes, both are available during your stay. Let us know when you book.
Where exactly is the villa?
37B Melbourne Residence, Kaksekam Village, Siem Reap — a quiet private community. Your host lives nearby and is available whenever you need anything.
