Extend your Cambodia adventure with a 3-night tropical escape to Koh Rong Sanloem, a peaceful island paradise of white sand, turquoise water, and barefoot relaxation. The perfect way to unwind, recharge, and soak up Cambodia’s slower side after an unforgettable adventure.
For those wanting to unwind in paradise, extend your Cambodia trip with three nights on Koh Rong Sanloem. Your driver will take you to Sihanoukville (approx 4hrs) and drop you off at the boat pier, where you'll board the public speedboat to the island which takes 45mins - 1hr.
Koh Rong Sanloem is all about slowing down and soaking up the serenity. While there’s no structured itinerary here, the island offers plenty of ways to unwind or explore at your own pace. This optional island extension is the perfect way to take a well-earned break after your Cambodia Active Adventure – a chance to slow down, breathe in the sea air, and let all the adventure settle in.
There’s no pressure here - just plenty of opportunity to unwind, connect, and enjoy island life at your own pace.
Note: this can only be booked as an addition to our Cambodia Active Adventure
This beach break is a relaxing extension to our Cambodia trip. While there are no included active experiences, you’ll need to be comfortable getting on and off boats and jetties.
This morning, we bid farewell to Phnom Penh and travel by private vehicle to Sihanoukville, a coastal city and jumping-off point for our island retreat. The journey takes around 4 hours via the expressway.
We head straight to the boat pier to board the public speedboat to Koh Rong Sanloem. The crossing takes approximately 45 minutes to an hour, depending on sea conditions.
Once we arrive, we check into our beachfront accommodation and the rest of the day is yours to unwind – swim, explore the beach, or simply relax and soak up island life.

Today we say goodbye to our island haven and begin the journey back to Phnom Penh. We will endeavor to take a mid-morning ferry (around 11.00AM- please note the ferry schedule timings will only be finalised 2-3 months before the trip).
Once ashore, your private driver will be waiting to transfer you along the expressway to Phnom Penh (approx. 3-4 hours). You’ll be dropped off at the airport for your onward flight (we recommend a late evening departure- 7.30pm or later), or at a hotel if you're extending your stay.

Every effort will be made to follow the itinerary as planned, but please remember this is adventure travel and conditions can change unexpectedly.

Occasionally, certain experiences or activities may need to be modified or skipped due to circumstances beyond our control. In such cases, refunds will not be provided for any missed components of the itinerary.

The magic of our trips comes from travellers bringing a supportive mindset, a go-with-the-flow attitude, and a genuine spirit of adventure.
We explore beautiful, often remote places where life moves at a different pace. Flexibility, a little humour and positivity go a long way in creating an atmosphere where everyone feels free to be themselves and make the adventure far more rewarding.

The following is not included in the cost of the tour:
If you’re travelling solo not to worry, you’re in good company! Many of our travellers join solo and our trips are designed to feel welcoming and supportive from the moment you arrive. It’s a great way to meet like-minded women, and friendships often form quickly along the way.
We’ll pair you with a room buddy or, if you’d prefer your own room on the island extension this is available for an additional supplement. You can select this option at the time of booking.
The tour extension starts on 26 January 2027 after breakfast in Phnom Penh.
You’ll return to the capital on 29 January in the early evening. If planning to fly out on 29 January, we suggest booking for 7.30pm or later.
You’ll be accompanied by a local guide for the island extension. An AW Tour Leader will also join if the group size reaches a minimum number of guests.
We do our best to accommodate dietary requirements and food allergies on every tour. There may be times when options are limited but we’ll be sure to inform you in advance.
We will be staying at La Passion Resort for three nights.

Travel insurance is mandatory for AW's international trips. We recommend taking out a policy early. Most good travel insurance policies offer an upgrade option to cover trip cancellation and interruption, which can come in handy.
If you are looking for a recommendation, we suggest Go Insurance. Through an affiliation with this insurer, AW receives a financial benefit. As a way of passing value back to our guests, if you purchase a policy for an AW trip through Go Insurance using this link, you may be eligible for our rebate offer.
Australian passport holders require a visa to enter Cambodia, and an electronic arrival card must also be completed prior to travel. While obtaining these documents and covering the associated fees is the traveller’s responsibility, we will provide clear instructions and helpful reminders in the lead up to the trip.
