NovAmber International Holdings
Amber International Holdings sits between hospitality real estate development and resort operations. Its corporate website says the business was founded in 2018, consistent with the incorporation date shown for Amber International Holdings Pte. Ltd. in Singapore company data. For a buyer, the more important point is that the publicly documented Cambodian track record is concentrated around Amber Kampot, so the terms of any specific investment should be verified independently rather than inferred from the brand story.

Overview
Amber International Holdings sits between hospitality real estate development and resort operations. Its corporate website says the business was founded in 2018, consistent with the incorporation date shown for Amber International Holdings Pte. Ltd. in Singapore company data. For a buyer, the more important point is that the publicly documented Cambodian track record is concentrated around Amber Kampot, so the terms of any specific investment should be verified independently rather than inferred from the brand story.
Track record
Amber Kampot was launched in 2019 as a resort development on roughly 1.7 hectares, with reported investment of about US$10 million and an initial plan for 35 accommodation units. Early reporting expected completion in Q2 2020 and operations to start in Q3. The operating configuration now differs from that launch plan: Amber Kampot's official fact sheet lists 20 one-bedroom villas and 5 two-bedroom villas, while a current hotel listing also shows 25 rooms and a 2020 opening. That is useful evidence that the resort reached operations, but it is also a reason to rely on current plans and transaction documents rather than the original sales announcement.
Segments and prices
The company's positioning is hospitality-led real estate, centred on private pool villas and resort operations. At the 2019 launch of Amber Kampot, an independent industry publication reported investment units starting from US$217,800. That is a historical launch price, not a current quotation: the current Amber Kampot pages we reviewed do not publish a verified villa sale price, so both the purchase budget and the legal rights attached to it need to be confirmed in a fresh offer and contract.
Geography
The company's documented Cambodian development is in Kampot, beside the Praek Tuek Chhu River. The operating resort website gives a Kampot address, while the website terms identify Amber International Holdings Pte. Ltd. as a Singapore entity. For a transaction, that distinction matters: the brand's location and the seller's legal jurisdiction are not the same thing, so the buyer should establish which entity owns or controls the land and asset and which entity receives the purchase funds.
Reliability and public record
The strongest verifiable signal is the operating Amber Kampot resort rather than the promotional language: the project was announced in 2019, opened in 2020 and remains bookable. The public brand track record is still narrow, however: Amber Kampot is the only named operating project on the corporate projects page, while other destinations are described as pipeline. The open sources reviewed do not provide enough information to establish the financial position of a specific selling entity or the resort's land-holding structure. An operating hotel is therefore a positive execution signal, but not a substitute for checking the contracting entity, title, encumbrances and investment agreement.
What to verify
Before paying, obtain the exact legal name of the contracting entity and documents showing its relationship to the landowner and Amber Kampot; separately verify the bank account receiving the funds. Because this is a landed-villa product, a foreign buyer should not assume direct ownership of the underlying land: review the land title, registered owner and the precise legal interest being offered, such as a properly documented long-term lease or another structure permitted by Cambodian law. Reconcile the as-built resort plan and the exact villa being sold, because early materials referred to 35 units while the current fact sheet and hotel listings show 25. Finally, review the live management economics: operator, revenue calculation, fees, maintenance and reserve costs, owner-use rights, termination and resale provisions; older marketing language about passive returns is not a contractual guarantee.

Is Amber International Holdings an active company?
Amber Kampot's website terms identify Amber International Holdings Pte. Ltd. as the website company. Public Singapore company data aggregating registry information shows registration number 201811810R, incorporation on 6 April 2018 and live-company status. Before a transaction, obtain a fresh official company extract and confirm whether this exact entity is actually a party to the contract.
Is Amber Kampot completed and operating?
Yes. Public sources support ongoing hotel operations: the official website presents current accommodation and booking options, while current hotel listings report a 2020 opening and 25 rooms. That confirms an operating resort, but it does not by itself prove that a particular seller has the right to transfer the specific investment interest being offered.
Can a foreign buyer own an Amber Kampot villa and its land directly?
Amber's public materials are not sufficient to promise that structure. Cambodian law allows qualifying foreign ownership of certain private units in co-owned buildings above ground level; foreign ownership is capped at 70% of the total surface area of the building's private units, and the underlying land is not owned by the foreign special co-owner. That regime does not automatically apply to a standalone landed villa. For Amber Kampot, the land title and the exact legally documented interest offered to a foreign buyer must be reviewed.
How much did an Amber Kampot investment unit cost?
An industry report on the April 2019 launch quoted prices from US$217,800. That should not be treated as a current asking price: it was a launch-period figure, and we did not find a verified current public villa sale price in the sources reviewed. Ask for a fresh quotation together with the full schedule of rights, furnishings, costs and management terms.
Why do older materials mention 35 units while current sources show 25?
The 2019 launch report described an initial plan for 35 units. A later official Amber Kampot fact sheet lists 20 one-bedroom and 5 two-bedroom villas, or 25 in total, and current hotel platforms show the same room count. The public sources reviewed do not explain the change, so a buyer should rely on the current approved plan and documents for the specific villa.
