What Templation does

Templation (Templation Angkor Resort) is a privately held single-property eco-luxury resort in Siem Reap, Cambodia, operating since 2017 under the MAADS hospitality group. The property offers 50 living spaces comprising 30 pool villas across 1-bedroom (11 units), 2-bedroom (16 units), and 3-bedroom (3 units) configurations, 12 Garden King/Twin suites, and 8 Jungloo glamping tents with private plunge pools. Core infrastructure is built around sustainable design: grid-tied solar power, rainwater collection, vegetal roofs, natural airflow volumes for passive cooling, and a double-roof Jungloo cooling system. Revenue is generated through five streams — room reservations, food and beverage (including floating breakfast and Khmer cuisine menus), Fleuraison Spa (massages, facials, Endermologie treatments), event hosting at The Grand Room, and commission-based activity bookings (Kulen Elephant Forest, temple tours, bird-watching, cycling, archery).

The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer luxury travel, with bookings via a proprietary website powered by The Booking Button, supplemented by OTA distribution on Booking.com and Tripadvisor, plus earned media through Forbes, Bloomberg, Travel+Leisure, Telegraph UK, and influencer collaborations. Customer segments include high-net-worth luxury travelers, families and groups, culture and heritage enthusiasts, and wellness seekers. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; ancillary published rates include a $35/night extra bed, $60 airport transfer, $80 Kulen Elephant Forest visit, and $22 non-guest breakfast. Competitive positioning rests on being the closest high-end resort to Angkor Archaeological Park, the unique Jungloo glamping concept, an on-site Angkor Database library, and a 1,000 cubic meter lake-like main pool that won the Travel+Leisure Luxury Awards 2026 Cambodia Best Hotel Pools category.
