Nestled deep within the wilderness of the Southern Cardamom National Park, in a pristine wildlife corridor, Shinta Mani Wild - A Bensley Collection is an all-inclusive luxury camp with just 15 tents. Entry to the camp is via a 400m zip line ride over the forest canopy, rivers and a waterfall to the Landing Zone Bar where the General Manager and your Bensley Butler greet you on arrival.
Creative luxury adventures include exploring the untrammelled waterways of South East Asia’s last wild estuarine ecosystem aboard a custom Bensley-designed expedition boat; or joining Wildlife Alliance rangers on anti-poaching patrols. Ever changing menus are inspired by sustainably foraged wild edible plants from the forest and organic farm. The Khmer Tonics Spa provides organic chemical-free treatments including a river-stone foot massage while soaking in a waterfall pool. The 100 sqm tents are perfect for spending a relaxing day doing nothing but enjoying your tent and its expansive private view, some with waterfalls.
Bensley Collection - Shinta Mani Wild is nestled in Cardamom National Park, Cambodia.

The Headquarters are the home of dining at Shinta Mani Wild. Be it a quick breakfast before your sunrise hike, or a leisurely foraged dinner, no Headquarters experience is alike! Every meal is carefully curated by the hotel's chefs to introduce you to something unknown and add to the adventure. Guests will enjoy the freshest seasonal ingredients that Cambodia has to offer, many of them picked by our team in the surrounding forest.
The dining possibilities at WILD are endless, whether you’re eating at Headquarters, on the law...
Expect jaw-dropping views and a tempting drink list, enjoyed over the Big Raging Sister Waterfall. Settle into vintage French chairs, cocktails in hand, complete with ingredients plucked from the camp's backyard, as well as WILD's in-house apothecary-style bitters, and our Master mixologist’s techniques.
If you’d like a cocktail making class to learn the ins and outs of the perfect Negroni, or for your own signature cocktail, just ask! You could also zipline to the bar, should walking seem a little pedestrian.
Indulge in pampering treatments at this signature Spa, Khmer Tonics. The spa’s two treatment rooms are nestled amid giant natural rocks perched in the forest canopy. Sensibly the design takes its cues from the forest, with plenty of wood and stone. The river takes center stage, have a river-stone foot massage while soaking in a waterfall pool or have therapists visit your tent for a treatment inside or on your balcony with the river rushing below.
The refined treatment menu celebrates Cambodia with chemical-free tonics...
Picnics at Waterfalls
Don’t let the restaurant confine you, all of WILD is your picnic and the team of adventure butlers are ready to whip up a gourmet feast in the many of the hotel's dramatic alcoves.
Swimming at The Cistern
As the DNA of this camp is a 1967 King Sihanouk expedition, a concrete tiled swimming pool would have looked out of place. But a cistern, where gin clear ground water was stored, makes sense. A 33 meter long swimming hole painted steel jet black so that...
Waterfall Tent
WILD’S cover girl, perched over rolling rapids pays respect to the royal heritage of the Kingdom of Cambodia.

Waterfall Tent
The farthest up the river valley, the farthest north, this tent is clearly the most remote, that is why the chances hearing a small troop of resident pileated gibbons is best from here, especially early in the morning. One of the most dramatically sited tents as it is right on top of a huge boulder that cantilevers 10 meters over the river below.
SIZE 100 sqm./1075 sq ft.
Wild Tent
Perched on a 25 meter wide boulder that disappears completely under white water at the peak of the monsoon season, it is kinda like being on a giant surfboard.

Bohemianism is the practice of an unconventional lifestyle, music, art, literature or spiritual pursuits and often in the company of like-minded people. Let your WILD side out.

The first guest here was the travel writer Lucia van der Post of How to Spend It fame. Her father was the famous African conservationist and prolific author Sir Laurens van der Post.

Wild Tent
This tent can be an amusing place to be as it is just below the Zip Line and at the confluence of two rivers. Here is also the place that WILD architect Khun Spot spotted a plethora of butterfly species.

Wild Tent
Here, there always seems to be an abundance of water that the setting sun somehow finds a way to reflect upon. One of the best waterholes to swim in is just below the tent.

Comfortably situated deep in the jungle, Kate Spencer’s lively botanical paintings compliment a bevy of bronze leaves. This tent has a wonderful view of the Tmor Rung River.

This tent showcases that they should have for sale. It seems that as fast as they produce they fly off the shelves.

Wild Tent
A sculpture made of driftwood about the size of a four year old elephant guards the front porch of this tent that sits close to the ground surrounded by a bamboo thicket. Inspired by their elusive herd of elephants to the east.

The Royal Cambodian Terrapin not too long ago was thought to be extinct. Recently they have spotted this handsome turtle, just once, at the Srey ambel estuary.

Two-Bedroom Tent
Just north of Headquarters and the Raging Big Sister Falls floats tent No. 6 over the widest but shallow tributary No. 3. The approach is spectacular. One strolls just above shallow rapids (monsoon season) on a succession of narrow wooden walkways that dances around this part of the jungle that thrives on wet roots. The Jungle Capsule with simple doubled bedded accommodation works well as an add-on to this tent.
