Couple of days by the sea
Re: Couple of days by the sea
Was down there in April and rode all over the city. Otres was the best of all. Nice and quiet. Stayed in Otres Village. Can't remember the name of the hotel. The water is going to be rough there this time of year. Be careful if you go swimming. Good night scene there with tables set up and food and drink delivered. Really no reason to go anywhere else if you're there for a beach holiday.

Any sandflies/biting midges around Otres? I know they’re a problem on Koh Rong

Re: Couple of days by the sea
I stayed at JUNLAN hotel in january for 2 nights, nice please, breakfast in the morning on the roof-terrasse. Its maybe chinese-orientated but the staff is Khmer and happy to speak english with barangs (especially if you know some khmer for sure). Cant say any bad worth about SHV, it was clean everywhere includede the beaches. I dint go for +5 years and you hardly recognise it, butonly in the positive way !! And fot hose who complain about tje chinese signs ?? Can you red them ?? No ?? Can you read the Khmer signs ?? No ?? Whats the difference ??

Re: Couple of days by the sea
Sea Breeze Resort on Otres is great for family. Nice big pool and kids pool too. Right on the beach (well you do need to cross the road). And doesn't break a bank. Breakfast included. Mainly western and local guests. Few khmer restaurants on same stretch too. Papa Pippo for good italian and not too far from it but might need tuktuk/car if with kids.
Otres in general is nice. Sea is rough this time of year, as someone mentioned, and this also bring some trash to beach some times. But there are cleaners cleaning the beach, not just every day on Otres.
Sokha is not that bad really. It's bit worn out but still ok if can find a deal. Not worth of the normal price though.

Not really. Definitely not in extent of Koh Rong.
Re: Couple of days by the sea
Appreciate the response and recommendations. I like others haven’t been in a long time (something like 8 or 9 years now). Will make a trip down next time I’m there.rogerrabbit wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2023 4:37 pm Sea Breeze Resort on Otres is great for family. Nice big pool and kids pool too.

Re: Couple of days by the sea
The main problem seems to be with people from English-speaking countries. They sometimes believe that everything has to be in English.Bongmab69 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2023 3:14 pm I stayed at JUNLAN hotel in january for 2 nights, nice please, breakfast in the morning on the roof-terrasse.
