We have a lovely stay at La Maison. It was everything we had hoped for. The beautiful and peaceful gardens offered a welcome rest after a day of touring. Having a safe place where the children could play freely was priceless. Everyone was warm and welcoming, and helpful. Thank you and bravo!

Luxe, calme et volupté, J’ai cueilli avec bonheur la rose du pays des banyans. Maison Polanka m’a donné un nouveau souffle. Je laisse le livre ouvert…de crainte qu’il ne se referme. A Maison Polanka, j’ai touché les étoiles…

Thank you for letting us breathe your taste into every single little object you placed, thank you for letting us dive and swim in the magic atmosphere and above all thank you for having opened your house and welcome us in your home. For sure it will be in our dreams for the longest time!

The warm and luxurious service from the entire staff, the tranquil surroundings and the tasty meals made me want to stay even longer.
JESSIE, SHANGHAI
A few notable highlights were: the relaxing and lush setting surrounding the pool and lounge area, the memorable and delicious meals (probably some of, if not the best dishes we had during our stay in Cambodia), and the massage staff that was available daily to ensure that we were in complete vacation mode. Also, the vintage Japanese bicycles that are available for taking out into town were a great way to see the area.
