About Jati Koh Russey Resort

Gorgeous seaside villas, sublime views and all the island thrills you could want.

After days of grand temples and dizzying cities, a change of pace comes in the form of Koh Russey Resort. Enjoy a breath of fresh, sea air and sun-drenched relaxation where the views are exquisite, the seafood is grilled to perfection and there's always a stretch of sand with your name on it. The resort's style is refreshing, with steely-grey and glass villas inspired by the geometric Cambodian Karma fabric, and greenery cascading down the walls. Enjoy a selection of cooling libations served on the beach, luxuriate with soaks in your outdoor tub or throw yourself into holiday mode with kayaking or snorkelling in the crystal water.

Property details

The property

The interiors are coolly simple with high ceilings and soft tones. It goes without saying that the easy-chic restaurant Horizon has some stellar ocean views to serve with a menu of farm-to-table dishes. For a more casual occasion, the Beach Shack is decorated with driftwood and serves its meals on the sand - the grilled seafood is divine! Grab something thirst-quenching from the thatched bar before heading over to the spa for a suitably indulgent massage. The pool has a creative, tiered design and loungers well-positioned for a snooze.

The rooms

Barely off the golden shoreline, Koh Russey has a collection of air-conditioned villas and pavilions, with a mod and minimalist style. Walls of glass let in the idyllic view and an open-plan design means the bedroom (with a luxe king-sized bed) flows into the bathroom, which comes with a rainfall shower and alfresco tub. The one to four-bedroom villas are larger with a lounge in honey-coloured wood, and some have a dining area, kitchenette or private pool and cabana overlooking the sea.

Activities

Start your mornings with yoga to the sound of bubbling waves or dive straight in with your choice of watersports - kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding around the bay, and snorkelling off a nearby island (with a picnic on the sand). Explore the island in your own time with a scenic bicycle ride, visit a countryside pagoda to receive a blessing from a monk or watch a classic film under the stars. Learn to cook like a local and enjoy the spoils for lunch!

Why we love it

Your villa is touching distance from the rolling surf and sand, which happens to make a dreamy view from bed.

Insiders Tip

For a truly special off-island experience, boat into the bay after sunset to swim amongst a constellation of bioluminescent plankton.

Something to think about

The rooms don't have mosquito nets and some have an open-air bathtub, so you might have to get used to a few unexpected flying guests.
