The hotel is basically good. And the breakfast buffet is great. But in the first room they gave me, the bathroom smelled of raw sewage. They gave me a second room when I asked, but that room did not have hot water. I didn’t ask for yet another room change since I was leaving the next day anyway.

The property is beautiful especially the Ocean Pool…you have access to the pool and beach simultaneously…the food from Sunset Restaurant was delicious, tasty and hot while the pool food was cold and insipid…not sure why! The drinks were great but need more alcohol…Happy Hour was on every day…breakfast was on par…cordial and professional employees…they were real polite and on point. Housekeeping was always timely and helpful. They only need to spruce up the landscape…Overall it’s a great place to stay.

This is a very outdated hotel, but the rooms are actually quite nice a pretty large. The breakfast is ok. It’s close to a fairly nice beach and it’s a nice “jungle” walk down to the beach. The pool and close surroundings are quite bad. Nice view over the ocean.

Love the beautiful gardens. Friendly staffs. The hotel is old and not well kept. The window facing the ocean needs cleaning. The A/C air filter needs cleaning/replacement, because we started getting sinus after two nights from the dust blowing from dirty filter. Hotel could use a fresh new paint job.

We loved the friendly staff and the pool was the best feature. We had booked a pod room but on arrival were given a twin in the main building, we were happy with this so did not mention it to the staff.

There were several power cuts during the night. The problem was that all of the lights in the room would turn on when the power came back on. It made for a terrible night’s sleep. Other members of my party had the same problem in their rooms too. The ground floor terrace door didn’t lock. The room was very damp. Rising damp visible on the walls. Mould throughout.

The resort is nice, but for the price I'd like to see better service. Always had to ask 3 times in restaurants and reception on just the basics.... a fork, tuk tuk, a beer...

When we checked in, we could not here anything from stuff. Bcz stuff's voice was too small. After I asked to speak louder, he never change and I could not understand what this hotel has inside. About the room, there was a lots of dust on the floor and air conditioner was not working. So manager offered us to upgrade with letter which is really nice. according to the letter, I just call front desk and they already know. But receptionist never know and attitude was not nice. so I asked him '' are you doubting me even I have letter from manager?''He said ''Yes'' After that, that staff came our room and checked. But he was still doubting. so I called that manager with number on his card. But manager's phone's number was not exist. Even rom service, I asked only one thing and asked did you understand? after that my food showed up with not my request. Let me say, pool and private beach was super nice and peaceful. But staff make us always upset and sad.

The property has a big potential and the infinite pool is great. However it looked more like a ghost hotel, few staff visible. We arranged in advance 2 paid options : honeymoon decoration and pick up. The driver was 35 min late for the pick up. No one helped to take the bags when we arrived with the taxi (other hotels had staff at the door especially when a pick up is arranged). They forgot the honeymoon decoration (even if it was on the sheet describing our reservation) but at least they did not charge for it. The food was ok. The hotel is isolated from the city but you will not necessarily enjoy the city with all the construction. Staff does not really greet people. It looks like the staff itself stopped believing in the hotel. It is like a old memory from the past. In summary, deceptive experience, expensive price for an average service compared to the 3 other hotels we stayed in Cambodia.

I’ll start with the pros: one of the best ocean pools out there and great gym facility and beautiful state in general. Unfortunately the cons way outweigh the pros. It’s a super dated hotel(1963) without proper maintenance. A lot of mold in our room ( I had a sea pavilion room) and the bathroom smelled disgusting. Cleaning staff apparently didn’t receive proper trainings and breakfast is disappointing too. Overall won’t recommend. The hotel is overrated and overpriced due to the ocean pool.

It was the first time to stay at this hotel and also in Shihanouk. The overall experience was nice and I would recommend it to my co-workers and friends next time.

Got the eco pod room and it was great. The room was well kept and looked clean. The swimming pool near the ocean along with the sunrise cafe were great spots to hangout and soak in the view. Great place to stay, although the staff could use a little bit of training.

Warning: If you go to Sihanoukville, you are leaving Cambodia and entering China. This lovely and charming beachtown had been sold to the chinese and they are building casino’s, for the chinese, everywhere. The Khmer and expats are moving out, about 75 percent of the population is chinese! The same goes for the hotel! Once a paradise on earth for european visitors, I was now one of the four people from europe. The rest in this fully booked hotel was... chinese! Breakfast, which was great before, had been adapted to the new mass tourism so, nothing positive to tell about! Alrhough thet built a completely new swimmingpool on the beach, the hotel lacks good maintanance. The only positive thing that remains is its location at the beach with beautifull views on the islands. But only the location can not convince me to go back. My best advice, go to Kep if you want to go to the beach. But hurry, things are changing fast in Cambodia...
