Song Saa Sanctuary: a joining of visions for ila and Song Saa.

Song Saa Private Island -­ Cambodia’s first private island luxury resort – has united with ila to offer a new approach to holistic personal wellbeing, based on the principles of stillness, healing and blessings.

The Song Saa Sanctuary is comprised of a number of private treatment rooms positioned spectacularly in the island’s rainforest and along the water’s edge. It provides a sacred and gentle space where guests will rejuvenate and reconnect with inner peace and joy.

The Sanctuary reflects the essence of its environment, where nature is untouched and respected. We use locally sourced herbs and plants, as well as Song Saa’s silken sands and iron-­‐rich stones, in bespoke treatments designed by ila.

Blessings:

When grace touches us we are blessed. Grace is abundant in the natural beauty of Song Saa and our blessings reflect and draw upon this resource.

Stillness:

Life often pulls us away from our centre. At Song Saa, guests will find the tranquillity to reconnect with the happiness within. Stillness is central to wellbeing, and our offerings help guide us back to our centre.

Healing:

Offered with loving kindness, our healing experiences are given with pure awareness and the ability
to transform.

Metta Bhavana

At Song Saa Private Island we strive to embrace the Buddhist tradition of ‘metta bhavana’ or loving kindness. We are inspired by the Buddhist principle of reverence for all beings and aim to follow the tradition of offering blessings to others.

Matching Song Saa’s focus on conservation and ‘luxury that treads lightly’ is ila’s commitment to source only sustainable wild harvested natural products from artisan producers, in ways that benefit local communities.

The result of this perfect union is the Song Saa Sanctuary -­ a place of peace and gentleness where mind, body and soul are restored to their natural stillness and harmony.
