Private Wedding - 15th & 16th November

Dear valued guests and visitors,

We will be closed on the Sunday 15th & 16th of Saturday November 2024 for a private Khmer Wedding Ceremony.

On the 16th, the happy couple along with over 100 of their closest friends, family and colleagues will be gathering for traditional Khmer wedding activities at our resort, followed by a wedding party. As the entire resort has been hired for htis occasion, we will not be serving any guests or visitors who are not in the wedding party, and we hope this does not cause too much disruption.

Hanchey Bamboo Resort will re-open as usual on Sunday 17th November for guests and visitors.

Today, our new yoga teacher arrived, and he’s a familiar face!

Kwame was the second yoga teacher to join us at Hanchey Bamboo Resort, back when we opened in 2018, and will once again be teaching daily sunrise and sunset yoga classes here on the mountain.

Kwame specialises in slow but dynamic and flowing yoga classes focused on helping you to find yourself in your own body. He loves the idea of finding movement in stillness, and vice-versa. He’s also a proficient handstander and acro-yogi, and so will be running two special workshops during his stay (details to be announced very soon).

You’ll be able to find him practicing in the Lotus Shala every day, and designing websites in the Bamboo Restaurant during his down time, so say “hello” if you see him!

You can also follow him on instagram @learnmoveteachsmile.
