Nibi Spa

4.9/5 on Google
Set beside the river just outside town, Nibi Spa combines massage huts with a steam room, dry sauna and a cold plunge pool, along with a café serving food and drinks. Guests can book a massage in a private hut or simply pay a small entry fee, around five dollars, to use the sauna, steam room and plunge pool for an afternoon. A swim in the river is part of the experience for many visitors, and the grounds themselves, overlooking the water, are as much a draw as the treatments.
Reviews are consistently positive and mention the same things: massages rated among the best guests have had anywhere in Cambodia, a calm and unhurried atmosphere, and staff and owners described as friendly, helpful and professional. Several visitors came after hearing about the place from others and found it matched or exceeded expectations. The food, especially the prawn curry, gets specific praise, and more than one reviewer mentions returning or planning to. No recurring complaints appear in the feedback.
It suits travellers who want to slow down for a few hours rather than tick off a quick treatment, and it works well as a half-day outing from Kampot, particularly in the afternoon when the sauna-and-pool package is available and the light over the river turns golden toward evening. It is closed on Mondays and open from 10am to 7pm the rest of the week. Getting there typically means a short tuk tuk ride out of town, and given the setting and the range of things to do on site, from massage to sauna to a swim, it is worth allowing more time than a single treatment would normally take.

Extremely beautiful setting. Staff were very helpful and friendly. I went on a Tuesday from 1pm because you can enjoy the steam room, dry sauna and cold plunge pool for $5.

One of the best massages I've ever had. The atmosphere is calm and peaceful. We were here with a big group and enjoyed massages, the sauna/steam, and the cold pool thoroughly. The river swim was a great bonus and the food is delicious and fresh. I will be back here again and again.

After reading so many amazing reviews about Nibi spa we took a tuk tuk out to see for ourselves. It was absolutely by far the best spa experience in Kampot and so far Cambodia for us due to its unusual location and peaceful surrounds. Whilst I had a 90 minute massage in a private hut my partner he made use of the sauna , spa , steam and pool area. He said it was the best he’s ever had and along the river also provided the best view.
The owner who we were privileged to chat too was welcoming, professional and from chatting with her would never ever exploit staff, volunteers, allow any misconduct from male clients thus ensuring her clients get the most 5 star experience ever.
Definitely a great half day out and I highly recommend it.

I discovered this beautiful, peaceful, and heavenly place while traveling through the Kampot area. There are amazing options for massages, relaxation, food, and drinks. There are also saunas and an ice-cold plunge pool. The incredibly kind staff and friendly owners create a wonderful atmosphere. You can easily spend the whole day here and completely relax both your body and mind.

Utterly blissful atmosphere and one of the best massages I've ever had. Can't recommend enough!
I also enjoyed the spa prior to the massage, as the sun was setting over the river, and enjoyed a delicious meal of prawn curry afterwards - just wonderful from start to finish. So happy that I found this idyllic place
