The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Eco-Friendly Oasis

I was truly impressed to walk into a hotel room where not a single piece of plastic was present! The room was beautifully decorated and exuded charm, while the spacious bathroom was a good bonus. The hotel's commitment to sustainability made my stay even more enjoyable, as I learned about their use of refillable glass bottles instead of plastic and various eco-friendly practices. A must-stay for anyone who values the environment!

Breakfast by the Sea

Every morning, I enjoyed an very nice breakfast at the Strand Restaurant, which was designed with a stunning wooden structure that perfectly encapsulated Khmer style. The buffet had a wide variety of delicious options, including fresh fruits, homemade yogurt, and local noodle soup with a choice of meats. The location right by the sea enhanced the experience, allowing me to start the day with the sound of waves and beautiful views!

Swimming Bliss

The swimming pool was a highlight of my stay! It offered a calming ambiance with amazing ocean views. I spent countless hours relaxing poolside, while enjoying delicious fruit skewers provided by the attentive staff. There was also a swing where I could sit back and watch the local fishermen at work. It was the perfect spot to unwind and soak in the beauty of my surroundings.

The rooms are comfortable and simple, but may need some cosmetic updates. The dining experience was enjoyable with lovely views, although the selection at breakfast could be improved. Overall, it’s a great place for a quiet getaway, but there are a few amenities that could use some attention.
