The Meas family is a lovely group of people! From the second you enter their home, you realize that you have just made a new friend for life. Their hospitality and friendly welcome will provide the difference in your travels.

The Cambodian cuisine is prepared from local ingredients and the gardens surrounding their home. If you are lucky, you might even have the opportunity to learn a bit of Khmer cooking! Siphen and Mach are also extremely knowledgeable on Cambodian culture and history. Be sure to ask questions!

From the lasting colors and sweet smells of the Cambodian countryside, to the local school and temple visits, you will leave rested with fond memories. The Meas family home stay is an unforgettable experience that we will forever recommend.

The Meas family homestay is absolutely the highlight for our travellers in Cambodia. They offer wonderful hospitality, fantastic food, interesting conversation, fascinating visits to local sights. I cannot recommend them highly enough! Try to stay a few nights at least and really soak up the wonderful experience.

Staying in the Meas Family Home Stay was one of the best experiences I have had. I was able to come away with the essence of Cambodia, the people. The sights, sounds, feelings one has from staying here is magic. Mach and Siphen are remarkable and friendly hosts. I recommend this opportunity to anyone wanting a meaningful travel experience.

I had stayed with the Meas family previously when I traveled abroad two years ago with a program called Pacific Discovery. I managed to get in contact with them my second time around visiting Cambodia(October 2009) and they were more than willing to let me stay with them for a short time during my travels around Cambodia. They are some of the most enjoyable, friendly people you will ever meet. I loved lounging in the hammocks, talking with them, learning how to make my new favorite food (lemon/pepper sauce), exploring the rice fields and just spending time with them. The homestay experience made me feel as if I was part of their family and it's something I will always look back on and smile.

Homestaying at the Meas was an extraordinary experience! I immediately felt part of the family. It was definitely a worthwhile visit with amazing local cuisine prepared by the Meas cooks and great hospitality from the entire family. I will never forget my stay at the Meas!
Thanks so much Mach and Siphen!
I hope all is well with you and your family!
