Hotel di Koh Rong, Sihanoukville

Apsara Resort Koh Rong is perfect for those who love a quiet, romantic escape. The atmosphere is very peaceful, especially at night, making it ideal for couples or anyone looking to truly unwind. However, if you’re after a more vibrant nightlife or lively evening vibe, I’d recommend staying at a resort located on Long Set Beach instead. The rooms at Apsara Resort are super clean and luxurious, and the quality clearly matches the higher price — you really do pay for what you get.

This hotel was okay but not great value for the price we paid. We ended up shortening the time here and spending another night at a near by hostel - think this shows the level of quality. The location is amazing but as is every beach front hotel/hostel on the *****. The pool here is nice but sun loungers could use an update as are quite dirty. The room is okay and has aircon, door didn’t fully shut so the curtains covering the door is covered with mosquitos trying to get in. We had to spray the gap in the door regularly with spray to keep them out. The shower was mid warm but low pressure and hung on the wall and had to hold in hand to keep up. The service at the front desk was fine but to the lowest standard we’ve had travelling. There was no added niceties or politeness. Check in took a while (20 mins) while there was no comment on why it was taking so long. Our room wasn’t even ready in this time period so we weren’t waiting for the room. Breakfast wasn’t great and they could really do with more staff. The poor waitress was run off her feet trying to clear plates, stock food and drinks back up but there was always big gaps. People were sitting at dirty tables with no cutlery just to sit down and start eating. Not the waitresses fault as she was working very hard just needed 3/4 more people. The privacy is nice but the amenities are worse than the hostels near by.

We absolutely loved our stay. The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout our time at the resort. Our room was clean, quiet and very closely located to the beach. The food was good, the drinks were great and reasonably priced - happy hour daily 2pm-4pm is a great bonus too. Our room was turned down daily and the air con was excellent. The gym had some good facilities however, the air con is never on a the door is left open so take plenty of water and be prepared to SWEAT! The beach was the highlight, plenty of sun loungers for everyone, beautiful crystal clear waters and the sands were regularly cleared of rubbish washed up. There’s lots of palm trees and cashew nut trees to seek shelter under and plenty of cute stray dogs around to entertain you. The resort itself is a great location, near to lots of restaurants, shop, laundry service and a short walk down the beach to more bars with a more party vibe that’s great for a short time before heading back to the zen of the resort. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

位置離碼頭不遠，房間乾淨，設施齊全，都比較新，海灘蚊子有些多，室內最好關門窗，有咖啡廳和餐廳，客服態度很好。 附近也有很多家餐廳，小酒吧。 門口海灘乾淨，早上可看到日出，有沙灘椅等設施。

L’hôtel est plutôt récent. Le lit est confortable. Chambre est correctte. C'est dommage la piscine et le restaurant sont en rénovation et ne sont pas utilisables pour le moment, mais l’établissement propose un transfert gratuit vers la plage de Longset. Personellement, la plage Coconut, située à côté de l’hôtel, est préférable : elle est moins fréquentée et plus propre. Je recommande cet hôtel.

The resort had a very welcoming atmosphere from the moment i arrived. Instead of feeling crowded like many tourist places, this one felt private and comfortable. The room had a large bathroom and a very soft bed, which made it easy to relax after exploring during the day. Definitely one of the nice resorts I’ve stayed.

We stayed at this hotel for five nights in January 2026 and changed two rooms — one with a sea view and one with a garden view. The rooms were amazing: spacious, clean, with fresh furniture and recent renovations. We really loved them. Huge windows and curtains controlled by a remote — it’s absolutely wonderful to open the curtains in the morning with a remote while lying in bed. Sunrise, the sea — incredibly beautiful. The staff are extremely attentive, friendly, and helpful. They literally anticipate your wishes and help with everything — from carrying suitcases to the room to inflating a large rubber mattress for the children. The restaurant is very good, with a varied menu and tasty food. Breakfast has everything: different types of eggs, pancakes, fritters, waffles, delicious juices. Essentially, all our wishes were satisfied by the restaurant. The highlight is the Surf Club — an artificial wave and the opportunity to surf, with one free hour daily for guests. My older child practically lived there and learned to stand on the board. I would also like to especially note the cleanliness of the beach. It is constantly maintained: the sand is not just leveled with rakes but actually sifted with special equipment. You won’t find a single stick, large shell, cigarette butt, or anything like that. The sand is perfectly clean, the sun loungers are good, the mattresses are clean. It’s simply a paradise. This place is wonderful not just because of its location, but because the staff make maximum effort to create comfort, cleanliness, and a truly pleasant atmosphere.

Что понравилось: Отличная удобная кровать и подушки, белоснежное белье и полотенца. Сотрудник отеля заранее связался со мной и помог забронировать билеты на паром и машину с пирса до отеля. Довольно вкусные блюда в ресторане отеля. Завтрак был также очень хорошим при небольшом количестве блюд. На пляже можно брать сапы, бесплатно. Снорклинг с берега тоже не плохой, видели двух каракатиц. Пляж - сказка, но с небольшой оговоркой. Лежаков всегда хватало. Что не понравилось: Пляж в ошметках от полиэтилена от мешков с песком, которые укрепляют береговую зону. В один день мы заказали на закате бутылку Просеко. Официант открыл ее и бросил фольгу прямо на песок, шокировав нас таким пренебрежением к этому прекрасному месту. В другой день утром на за соседний стол на пляже приносили гостям колу, в обед никто не пришел забрать стаканы и банки. На закате все те же банки валялись на песке, стеклянные стаканы видимо все-таки забрали. По номеру тоже полно разочарований: все сделано тяп-ляп, построено на скорую руку, мебель заляпана краской, коврик и шляпа в номере рваные, в огромной душевой ни одного крючка или держателя для полотенца. Шторки тоже нет, унитаз всегда залит водой. Половина выключателей не работает, у кровати выключатели перепутаны местами. Уходишь из номера, забираешь карту - свет над входом тоже выключается, вернуться по темноте и подняться по лесенке целое приключение. Есть холодильник, но он не работает, причем в двух номерах. При входе в домик и при входе в ресторан есть шланги смыть песок с ног, но ни один не работал, муж разобрал и почистил, заработало. Итог: при должном менеджменте и уходе это место может превратиться в рай. Особенности, к которым надо быть готовым: Вечерами на пляже много москитов или мошки, кусают сильно, чешется долго. Репелленты обязательны. В пешей доступности только соседнее кафе, больше ничего. Это может быть как преимуществом так и недостатком для кого-то.

Honestly, I have zero complaints. The location is perfect, the views are unreal. The rooms aswell are very spacious, perfect for a couple or even a solo backpacker! The food though…oh my god…every chef in the back deserves a massive pay rise RIGHT NOW😂😮💨the food was incredible, very reasonable. But my highlight of the SkyBar were the Tropical Smoothies…I think the workers had enough of me ordering them 4 days in a row for breakfast lunch and dinner 😂 But genuinely this place is amazing! Other than the stairs…those stairs are a killer but it’s good to get some cardio in once in a while 😮💨

Pros: - the most beautiful beach I've seen in my life. White sand as thin as flour. Transparent water. Fish swimming around, seashells, crabs... - kids love it. There's almost no waves. You can walk 50m into the sea and the water just reaches your waist. Great for little kid. Our 1.5 y.o. kid loved playing in the water. - the restaurant of the hotel serves fusion food. Delicious and not pricey. The neighboring hotel Your and Me has a restaurant that makes more traditional khmer food that is also delicious. - the room is spacious, bright, with an incredible view. Anyway, you will spend the whole day outside. - for 100$ you can take a boat and do fishing, snorkeling, touring the island. - the hotel has free kayaks, paddles. Can improve: - the staff is very laid back. They are very nice but at the restaurant for instance, better go to the bar to order I saw people do that rather than waiting for someone to service you. Everyone seems ok with that. Cons: - the shower is outdoor. So washing outside trying to avoid mosquitoes is not great. One night we had a visitor, a huge spider fell on my wife while she was giving bath to our kid, it was the size of my hand. Not a great experience. But we'll this is nature. Can't fault the hotel. - we staid at a double room the night before. And the only difference was just a few intelligent change in furniture : trash in with a lid, glass door in the restroom so natural light comes in, a bathtub that was not really useful. For these small changes the price difference is huge. Important Note: I learnt unfortunately that the island is infested with sand fleas. All the hotels are facing this issue. A bite is not dangerous but bothersome if you're allergic which was my case. My wife and two kids had no issue. But I was bitten on my back because there was some sand on my bedsheet and the sand fleas had a feast at night. My back itched crazy for one week. The bad thing is it seems hotels have no pharmacy. So be prepared and bring your own topical cream or cortisone cream, and antihistamine just in case. It seems I was the only one in the hotel to have this issue but googling it I found a few bloggers describing having this issue. Note 2: there's a ferry that can bring you directly from Sihanoukville to the hotel's beach, one per day. We took the GTVC to LongSet Beach Pier, then had a taxi, 5$ per person. We did that. It was a smooth ride. The taxi was a great experience
