Bensley Collection Shinta Mani Wild

In true explorer style, The Headquarters restaurant supplies early bird breakfasts before hikes and dinners freshly foraged from the jungle - think mud crabs and wild potatoes. Served at bamboo-style tables, the daily changing menu features more classic cuisine too. Only reached by zipline, The Landing Zone bar is eccentric to a 'T' with views of the Raging Big Sister Falls from the massive daybeds and cocktail classes too. At the forest's edge, Khmer Tonics offers a soothing space to enjoy river stone foot massages in a waterfall pool and herbal treatments.

In locations specially chosen over seven years, the collection of luxury tents are perched over waterfalls or atop boulders. As stylish as they are 'wild', the tents are furnished with ornate wooden beds, funky animal-print couches and even a tin bathtub on the terrace. Explorer-chic accents like old school lanterns and trunks are dotted around, and individual touches (and names like the First Lady Jackie Kennedy's Tent) include themed murals and handcrafted decor. The largest tent is accessed by wooden walkways over the rapids with two bedrooms - plus the option of a glass Jungle Capsule sleepout.

It comes as no surprise that activities are not in short supply. Hike into acres of thick forest to spy a pillated gibbon, and plenty of butterfly and birdlife. Take a trip down the river on a pontoon-style boat (with a bar and spa treatments), which can drop anchor for spontaneous kayaking anywhere you fancy including sundowners on a stone island. Go mountain biking down rugged trails, monitor endangered species with the resident naturalist or see the park from the air on a ziplining expedition (with the reward of a G&T at the end).
