Welcome To The Yoga Palace
At our family-run retreat in Kampot, we offer focused yoga, meditation, and nourishing cuisine to help you build lasting wellness practices — whatever your level. Luxury mountain-view accommodations and a rooftop yoga space make Yoga Palace the perfect place to restore.
We’re a Khmer-owned business committed to culturally-respectful tourism — and one of a kind in Cambodia. The owner and family live on-site, and the warmth of Cambodian hospitality means you’ll feel at home from the moment you arrive. We also give back: free yoga classes and English lessons keep our roots in the local community. There’s nowhere else in Cambodia where you can enjoy a world-class retreat while living as part of a Khmer family.

“High-quality yoga classes and very professional teachers” — Margaux Chloé
Quiet Your Mind
Surrounded By Nature
We are the only retreat in Cambodia that offers a shaded rooftop yoga space, allowing you to practice while surrounded by nature. You can enjoy evening classes as the sun sets over Bokor Mountain. In the morning, practice begins with the gentle morning sun and finishes before the heat sets in. You will feel connected to nature as you practice Yoga the way it was traditionally intended.
“Practicing yoga while watching the sun paint the sky was nothing short of magical.”, Romina (Argentina)
Forge meaningful connections
A retreat at the Yoga Palace will make you feel like part of a family. The space and practices gently encourage you to get to know the other guests and the Khmer family who owns the property. The staff will make you feel at home as soon as you arrive and we will do our best to accommodate any special requirements you have.
“I am deeply grateful for this experience and the warm-hearted people I met during my stay. I’m leaving with so much inspiration for my daily life and look forward to continuing my yoga journey.”, Kira (Germany)
Accommodation with modern comforts with a traditional Khmer touch
We are called the Yoga Palace for a reason. Each room has a bed fit for a king, made from traditional rosewood, with a brand-new mattress. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms. Wake up to mountain views and enjoy sitting on the wide terrace before starting your morning practice.
“The rooms are very nice, new and clean, and waking up and doing yoga with that view is the best start of the day. It’s a palace alright.”, Daphne (Netherlands)
Delicious & Nutritious Food
Our chef & owner of the property, Sina, has over 10 years of experience cooking delicious and nutritious food for yoga practitioners. Her passion for cooking shines through in every meal she prepares, starting each day at the local market to select the freshest ingredients. She uses locally sourced fruits and vegetables to create varied menus that provide the nutrients you need to support your yoga practice. Whether you’re vegetarian, vegan, or neither, you’ll find nourishing options that energize and satisfy.
“Without exaggeration, it was the best food I’ve had in all of Cambodia. Everything is natural, homemade, and prepared with so much love. Every meal felt nourishing and special”, Eden (Israel)

The Freedom To Relax & Explore
Our daily program provides a transformative experience while still offering plenty of breathing space. Every day after lunch, you have several hours to yourself where you can relax, journal, explore the local area, or visit some of the beautiful nearby attractions (which we can arrange for you). Whether you want to go kayaking on the river or sip a mango shake by the pool at a local hotel, there is plenty of time.
Follow The Sun
Our rooftop Yoga shala provides a stunning view of Bokor mountain and the surrounding countryside. Our sunset Yoga classes provide the perfect backdrop for your practice: you move through your poses, watch the sky transform into a canvas of yellows, pinks, and oranges.
“The rooftop yoga space was a highlight, with stunning views of the surrounding mountains and jungle. That and the sound of birds all around created the most peaceful and grounding atmosphere. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking to deepen their practice, reset, or simply connect with a supportive community in a beautiful setting.” Julia (Canada)
