Sokha Real Estate on Bokor Mountain

Who Sokha Real Estate is

Sokha Real Estate is a property development and management company working in Cambodia. Its portfolio includes residential and commercial schemes in several parts of the country. On Bokor Mountain, the best-known name linked to it is the Sokha Bokor Highland Resort, which combines luxury villas, hotel rooms and a casino.

The company says its Bokor projects are designed to sit in harmony with the surrounding landscape while still offering modern services. Treat that as the developer's stated aim rather than something you can check from the road.

The three projects

• Borey Amret Thansur (Project 1): a residential development. A borey is the Khmer term for a planned housing estate.
• Borey Morokot Thansur (Project 2): another residential development. It is expected to sit close to major roads and highways, which should make it easy to reach from the rest of the province.
• Crown Project (Project 3): a luxury resort and residential development on top of Bokor Mountain. It is planned to offer panoramic views over the surrounding countryside and is expected to become a major attraction for the region.

What kinds of buildings are on the mountain

Development on Bokor covers more than housing. The mix of buildings on the mountain includes:

• Luxury villas with mountain views
• Hotels and resorts for visitors
• Commercial buildings, including offices and retail space, available for sale or lease
• Entertainment facilities such as casinos, cinemas and amusement parks
• Religious buildings, including temples and shrines that visitors can enter

What to expect from the housing

The planned housing range includes villas, townhouses and apartments, set among forest and mountain scenery. The aim is a quiet, comfortable place to live.

Facilities mentioned for the developments include swimming pools, fitness centres, parks and 24-hour security. None of this should be treated as a firm promise yet: the projects are unfinished, and the exact housing options, amenities and completion dates may change.

Practical advice for buyers

Because plans are still evolving, the sensible step is to ask the developer directly for current details before making any decision. Sokha Real Estate's website and Facebook page are listed on this page. Ask for up-to-date unit types, what is included and the expected handover date in writing.
