What Is Wyndham Garden BKK1, and Why Does BKK1 Matter?

BKK1 (Boeung Keng Kang 1) is Phnom Penh's premier diplomatic and business district — home to embassies, international firms, and premium retail. The UC88 tower sits on Street 322, within walking distance of AEON Mall, the Independence Monument, and Norodom Boulevard.

UC88 is a 46-floor, 459-unit tower operated under the Wyndham Garden brand — part of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (9,280+ properties across 95 countries). This is the first internationally branded hotel-residence in BKK1, not a standard condominium.

Developer UC Group has 30 years in the Cambodian market. Previous delivered projects include The View and Golden One — both handed over on schedule.

What Unit Types Are Available and at What Price?

The April 6, 2026 price list covers floors 5–33:

Type Net Area Starting Price Up To
Studio 31–35 m² $135,000 $157,000
Studio+ ~42 m² $155,000 $189,000
1BR 42–47 m² $148,000 $230,000
2BR 75–93 m² $302,000 $430,000
3BR Premium 106–125 m² $423,000 $598,000
4BR Premium — $1,980,000 $2,200,000

The 1BR is the most in-demand type (layouts B/C/J/K). East-facing 2BR units (A/E series) offer panoramic views. Price increases per floor range from $1,500 to $4,500 depending on unit type.

Standard discount: 10%. With a higher upfront payment: 15%. Units G/H/I were offered with an approx. 14% promotional discount in April 2026.

How Does the Guaranteed Rental Return Work?

The GRR (Guaranteed Rental Return) is written into the management contract with Wyndham Garden — not a developer estimate. Three options:

  • 8% p.a. × 3 years — total 24%; highest annual rate
  • 7% p.a. × 5 years — total 35%
  • 6% p.a. × 10 years — total 60%; maximum stability

Real-world example: a 1BR at $161,778 under the 6% program yields $10,277/year ($856/month), or $102,776 over 10 years — regardless of actual hotel occupancy. The investor carries zero operational risk; Wyndham handles management, marketing, and staffing.

Payment Plan 1 (10% discount): - 30% at signing - 20% over 12-month installment - 50% upon handover

Who Is This Project For — and Who Should Look Elsewhere?

Less suitable if you: - Want a short-term flip before completion (handover is Q3 2026 — pre-completion upside is limited) - Need immediate liquidity - Are working with a budget below $135,000

⚠️ The gross $/m² range varies by floor and unit type. Based on the April 6, 2026 price list, the range is approximately $2,794–$3,812/m² gross. Confirm exact figures with the agency.

FAQ

Q: When is Wyndham Garden BKK1 / UC88 completed? A: Scheduled completion is Q3 2026 (September 2026). UC Group has a 30-year track record with no reported delivery delays on previous projects, making this one of the nearest-term premium launches in BKK1.

Q: Can I buy remotely without traveling to Cambodia? A: Remote purchases are standard practice. Signing can be done via power of attorney or through the agency. Check KYC requirements and document flow for your home jurisdiction with the selling agent.
