Sihanoukville Hotels - Reviews and Rates

The wind has picked up again, so we've put the overnight dive trip to the islands on hold. Spent most of yesterday at the beach, working on our tans and getting some odd beauty treatments - for want of a better name. Since I'm getting a bit long in the tooth now, my back has started getting hairy, which isn't overly cool. Fortunately though, her...

Hey Everyone! This past weekend two friends and I went to the southern coast of Cambodia to a beach resort on the Gulf of Thailand. My friend Jess (law student from the States that Barry went to high school with) and Kim (an Aussie living here working for an NGO) joined me on our adventure to Sihanoukville. The resort is called Sohka and it was ...

I stupidly though that the rainy season was a quaint euphamism for a daily slight rain-shower which will then disperse again quite quickly to make way for good weather - how wrong I was! Since turning up in Sihanoukville at lunchtime it has not let up and we are talking rain with a capital R. The sort of downpour which drenches you to the skin w...

When we woke up in the morning we were both quite stiff from the bumpy road up to Bokor Hill Station. At our surprise there was no public bus between Kampot and Sihanoukville. We hired a shared taxi with a Swedish couple. We were foolishly thinking that 4 passengers with there backpack would be considered a full taxi. Wrong! After 5 minute we we...

First off, I have finally added my favorite pictures from Angkor Wat to that blog post, so please check them out. I also added two photos from Phnom Penh that make the city look a lot more beautiful than it really is. There is something to be said for visiting the beaches of Cambodia. After several hectic days in the capital of Phnom Penh there ...

Birds of a Similar Feather Three birds sit on a tree branch. They are great friends, and are nibbling away at a shiny green bug, an insect that supposedly gives you extraoridinary curiosity and wonder for the world outside their own. The first bird swallows his plump bug and immediately begins to dream of far-away destinations, exotic forests, m...

This has been a most enjoyable visit to one of my favorite spots in Southeast Asia. The people are friendly the weather is terrific and the prices are very reasonable. While here I spent many enjoyable hours with my friends, Jim and Trayon and Andy and Dee. In thinking of my stay here I have a few memorable moments that I would like to share wit...

It's official, Sihanoukville comes top of our "South East Asia **** Towns List"....it sucks. It is Cambodia's only deep water port, and was created in the 50's, which makes for a sprawling ugly town, and a pretty grotty port area. People come here for two reasons, the beaches (which are reasonable, but the best ones are owned by private resorts ...

After recent experiences our bus journey from Phnom Penh down to Sihanaukville was a complete and absolute breeze, and with no hassle at all had found ourselves a wicked little guesthouse down on Occhetual beach for $8 a night. The beach here is about 4 miles with glorious white sand and a beautiful, tranquil, blue sea. As you can probably guess...
