Sambor Preikuk homestay
Community homestay in Putang village, near Senmonorom (Mondulkiri). Two comfort levels, village setting, walking access to a waterfall and local restaurant.
Sambor Preikuk Homestay is located in Putang village, in Romnea commune, on the outskirts of Senmonorom, the capital of Mondulkiri province, Cambodge. This is not a classified hotel, but a community accommodation offering several options, from traditional homestay to guest house with comfort amenities. The property sits beyond the usual tourist circuits and caters to travelers seeking direct immersion in village life in this Cambodian highlands region.
Why stay here
We recommend this property for travelers who want to explore Mondulkiri differently than staying in a downtown hotel. Putang's village setting offers direct contact with the local community, notably the Pbunong community, in a region still largely untouched by mass tourism. We suggest it for independent, curious travelers comfortable with simple to moderate comfort depending on the option chosen, and interested in nature and rural lifestyles of deepest Cambodge.
The immediate surroundings offer walking access to a waterfall and a village restaurant specializing in Pbunong culinary traditions. These two concrete advantages — cultural immersion and quick access to nature — are the main reasons we include this accommodation in certain Mondulkiri itineraries.
Atmosphere
The mood is rural and peaceful, rooted in life in Putang village. Depending on the option chosen, accommodation ranges from a room in a community guest house with modern amenities (air-conditioning, TV, Wi-Fi) to a more traditional homestay room with fan and shared bathroom. Note: nights in Mondulkiri can be cool during dry season; warm clothing is advised. ATMs are rare in this area: bring cash in US dollars or Cambodian riels.
The rooms
The property offers two distinct comfort levels. Community guest house rooms (double, twin, triple) feature a private bathroom with hot water, air-conditioning, DTV television, refrigerator and Wi-Fi, plus a basic amenity kit. Community homestay rooms offer simpler comfort: bed with mosquito net, electric fan, flashlight and shared bathroom. All categories are listed for single occupancy according to available data.

Location and access
Senmonorom is accessible from Phnom Penh by road, via long-distance bus (approximately 7 to 8 hours) or shared minivan. From Senmonorom, travel to Putang village is mainly by moto-taxi or tuk-tuk; it's advisable to negotiate rates in advance. The Grab app has limited coverage in this area; the accommodation can direct you to trusted local drivers.
Around the area
A few minutes' walk away, Putang village restaurant (ម្ហូបបំពង់ឬស្សីភូមិពូរតាំង), rated 4.8 on Google, serves specialties cooked in bamboo tubes, a traditional Pbunong preparation. Leng Pol Throak Waterfall, accessible on foot from the homestay, offers a forest walk; good shoes recommended, and the falls are particularly full during rainy season (June to October).
