Through the Looking Glass Wellness Retreat Resort

I stayed at Through the looking glass for 2 nights and had very nice experience there. The whole space is like a tropical dream with lush greenery. I enjoyed so much waking up with a beautiful garden view and then practicing yoga and meditation in the open spaced yoga shala surrounded by nature. The room is spacious, well designed with comfortable beddings. I especially love the tall ceilings and the minimal, eco friendly yet chic decorations. All the rooms are designed with different themes which gives the rooms so much personalities and it’s just so cute! You could definitely see the beautiful energies and care from the details of the place which the staff bring in. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a place with a good balance of nature and a little luxurious comfort.

I go to Through the Looking Glass to make use of the Healing, wellness and Yoga activities. Siem Reap is fast becoming one of the Worlds top health and wellness destinations and Tanya, the resort owner has curated a team of some of the best healers and teachers in South East Asia. The morning yoga class in the lush gardens, followed with breakfast by the pool is a fantastic way to start your day and the list of healing options is fantastic, I haven't seen such a choice anywhere else. You can choose from Shamanic healing, traditional Khmer massage, to Art therapy and a Cacao ceremony, amongst many others. You can even book Tarot and Astrology readings! I haven't tried all of the options yet, but I live in Siem Reap and am dilligently working my way through the list!

I had a lovely experience at Through The Looking Glass. After a warm welcome by Tanya and the friendly staff, I participated in a yoga class and had breakfast. I don't have much experience with yoga; however, I very much enjoyed the class. The remarkably knowledgeable instructor explained that the style is called Iyangar, which focuses on alignment. I found it challenging, but great for mobility and strength. The movements were also scalable, which I really appreciated as a novice. For breakfast, I had lemongrass tea and a bowl of seasonal mixed fruit with homemade granola, served with very tasty cashew yoghurt. It really was an excellent way to start the day, and I felt amazing after. Will definitely be back!

This place was truly amazing! I've stayed at dozens of secluded hotels & guesthouses in Cambodia but the peace & tranquility of the rooms and grounds here really were NEXT LEVEL. The place is a little far away from Siem Reap town itself, but that was neutralised by a very kind airport pick-up by host (& the place's owner) Tanya. And you couldn't ask for a more authentic Cambodian surrounding on your way there. The grounds themselves are like you're staying in the jungle, with fountains and high trees and vines and birds and geckos. Added to that was the glass-encased shower that made it like I was waterfalling each morning. The pool's in the sun for most of the day, and a great place to relax and read. The rooms are immaculately clean and new and super luxurious too. And Tanya has lived in Siem Reap for years and had loads of great recommendations and tips on what to do and see (and eat). I highly recommend this place if you're looking for peace and calm and cool in Cambodia!
