"Feel home from home, with a colour locale."

— Peterhans & Panhea Nong, your hosts

The homestay

A little heaven between Siem Reap and Angkor

Bloom Garden is a charming homestay with just two cozy rooms and a lush tropical garden — a beacon of tranquility for travellers from all over the world. It's just a short seven-minute drive from Siem Reap city, and close enough to Angkor to make it your natural base.

We don't have a swimming pool. What we do have is peace, personal attention, and an enthusiastic team who genuinely mean it when they thank you for choosing us. Many guests who plan a short stay end up extending it — from a few nights to six weeks, even three months — captivated by Siem Reap and the rich culture of Cambodia.

Bloom Garden is run by Dutch founder Peterhans Koperberg and Cambodian owner Panhea Nong, together with a small team who treat every guest as part of a growing family, not just a booking.

Meet your hosts

Peterhans & Panhea

The two people behind the WhatsApp replies, the breakfast, and the welcome at the gate.

Peterhans Koperberg

Founder

Dutch-born, Cambodia-adopted. Peterhans first arrived in 2006 and never really left — Bloom Garden grew out of that first fascination with the country, as his way of sharing it with every guest who arrives.

Panhea Nong

Co-owner

The heart of the day-to-day at Bloom Garden — from breakfast to airport pickups to the small local knowledge that turns a stay into something more than a hotel room.

From our kitchen

Home-baked bread and garden cocktails

Breakfast bread baked fresh, honest Khmer home cooking, and a small bar that mixes a proper mojito — all part of feeling at home at Bloom Garden.

Didn't book with breakfast? Bread, tropical fruit and coffee are $5. Join the family-style lunch or dinner Peterhans and Panhea are cooking that day for $6 and $7, drink included — there's no menu, just whatever's good that day.

Want to eat around town instead? Ask us — we share our favourite restaurants and cafés with every guest at arrival, in the same little guidebook that covers everything from tuktuk prices to the best mango sticky rice in Siem Reap.

Angkor & beyond

Tours built around how you like to travel

Our own tuktuk drivers know Angkor well — sunrise, sunset, cultural, or a full custom day. We also organise longer, tailor-made itineraries of up to four weeks, from countryside cycling to volunteer work with local families.

Sunrise & sunset Angkor tours

Angkor Wat at dawn, Phnom Krom at dusk over the Tonle Sap.

Cultural & historical tours

Angkor Thom, Ta Prohm, Banteay Srey and the Roulous temples, with an English-speaking guide.

Biking & countryside days

Rice fields, water buffalo, a river village on stilts, and lunch with a local family.

Further afield, by car

Phnom Kulen's sacred mountain, the jungle-swallowed ruins of Beng Melea, the river carvings at Kbal Spean, or further out to Koh Ker, Preah Vihear, Battambang and Anlong Veng.

Floating villages

Cambodia's floating communities at Kompong Phluk and Kompong Kleang, where whole villages rise and fall with the Tonle Sap's water levels.

Meet Local, Eat Local

Join a local family for a home-cooked Cambodian dinner, shared the traditional way — a real cultural exchange, not a show.

Guides & something different

Multilingual private guides for the temples — or for a change of pace, jeep tours, a helicopter flight over Angkor, or a hot-air balloon ride at sunrise.

Custom & longer journeys

From a 3-day escape to a 2–4 week Inspiration & Culture trip mixing travel, culture and volunteering.

See the full journey

Tuktuk day tours from $45 (per tuktuk, up to 4 people). Angkor Pass entrance tickets are purchased separately: $37 for one day, $62 for three days, $72 for seven days.

Freedom on two wheels

Discover Angkor with the Bloom Scooter

If you really want to experience Angkor and Siem Reap in the best possible way, we highly recommend renting our Bloom Scooter — or, for a slower pace, one of our rental bikes.

Freedom to explore Angkor

Exploring the temples of Angkor Wat and the wider Angkor Archaeological Park by scooter gives you complete freedom. No fixed schedules, no waiting, no rush — just the flexibility to discover at your own pace, stop whenever you want, and explore hidden corners that many visitors miss.

See more of Siem Reap

Beyond the temples, riding through Siem Reap and its surrounding countryside lets you see much more: local villages, rice fields, small markets, and authentic Cambodian life. You decide your route and your timing.

Affordable and convenient

Whichever set of wheels suits your trip, getting around Siem Reap and Angkor stays easy on the budget — and makes your stay even more memorable.

Bloom Scooter

$11 – $20/day

Rental bike

$5 – $10/day

If the Bloom Scooter is not available, we'll arrange one from our trusted local scooter rental partner — so you can still enjoy the same great experience. Prefer to pedal? Our rental bikes are ready whenever you are.

Freedom. Flexibility. More to see. — Explore Angkor your way.

Cambodia's dry season (roughly November to April) has the least rain and is the most popular time to visit Angkor. The wet season (May to October) brings lush green temples, fewer crowds, and short afternoon downpours rather than all-day rain.
