Homestay Yellow Natural House

Familiär, kambodschanisch, sauber und trotzdem sehr preiswert! Wir werden wiederkommen.

Complete honesty? I thought the reviews were too good to be true, so I booked a few nights and thought I'd see for myself. By the time I leave I'll have stayed with this truly wonderful family for 3 weeks and I'd visit again in a heartbeat. Yep, the reviews are true. Navy, Ken, and family are warm, welcoming, kind and incredibly generous people. We've had lovely conversations, shared delicious meals, laughed and spent time together. It's a really great mix of privacy when you'd like it and the ability to connect and converse when you wish. The homestay is a quick scooter or tuktuk ride from the touristy part of town so you can get everywhere easily. I like that it's about 10 minutes away from the busy, noisy energy in the centre of Siem Reap. It feels calmer, quieter, and like a true homestay. Navy and Ken speak excellent English and are very happy to teach you some Khmer (I'm so sorry for my terrible pronunciation! 😂), and we've had some great conversations about life, the universe and everything during my stay. The room is very spacious - a separate bedroom, bathroom, and lounge area to enjoy. The bed and pillows are comfortable. The bedroom has air-conditioning and the lounge area is 'indoor outdoor' style (open air but with privacy) with a fan. There's consistent hot and cold water in the shower (you definitely don't need hot water in Cambodia at this time of year, but it's there if you want it!). There's also a large fridge in the private lounge area for basic self catering, keeping water cold, or storing snacks. Wifi is good and you can top up your water bottle with filtered water which is provided. Also, when you stay you NEED to try Navy's cooking - it's so, so good!! As a solo female traveller I feel safe, comfortable and so cared for. I feel like I've been welcomed into the family - and when you travel alone, that's a really lovely thing to experience.

The house was very beautiful. We had a huge and stylishly furnished room with AC, as well as a living room/ terrace to chill and watch sunsets.

Nothing to complain.

Der Familienanschluss, kleine grüne Oase, Ruhe. Navy ist eine sehr herzliche und offene Gastgeberin. Ken und sie sind sehr hilfsbereit und außergewöhnliche Menschen. Eine sehr schöne Begegnung. Danke für die schöne Zeit🧡
