It has a wealth of natural attractions, including coral reefs, tropical palm forests, tropical rainforests, waterfalls, and multiple pure white beaches, especially a 6-kilometer-long beach, which is spectacular.

At night, you can turn off your computer and mobile phone, throw away your worries, and spend a few days on the island isolated from the world.

Lovely place, nice food, the nicest staff. But the true charm of the place is its location. You can see bioluminescence there every night (sometimes on the shore, others you need to take a boat for a few minutes), and it’s absolutely breathtaking.
The perfect paradise Island escape. After a warm welcome at the harbor lounge and a 40 minute boat trip in a fantastic clean and safe speed boat we reached the tropical bliss island. The amazing Song Saa team gave us a lovely welcome and we felt immediately the good vibes and professional care from everyone. Can’t say how amazed we were about the Song Saa team. We stayed at one of the stunning private ocean front villas. Dipping into our private pool every morning, having an outdoor shower, hanging out at our lounge bed… always with the great view off the ocean and the house reeve. The villa was very spacious and beautifully designed.

This is one of the most recommended places you should visit with your family, friends, and couples that bring romantic vibes, especially a beautiful sunrise and a magnificent sunset by the beach.
Koh Rong Samloem Island - Cambodia
Koh Rong Samloem Island is a Cambodian Island in the Gulf of Thailand with crystal clear water. if you don't want to hike, Sky beach is good for you, and if you love adventure and want to walk 1 hour from Sky beach to Lazy Beach. Local people can understand english and are very approachable and helpful. But before you go there, you must put cash in your pocket since there's no ATM on this island. There are some restaurants that offer you cash out thru online banking/swipe in Sky & Seracen restaurant but they charge 6%-10% per transaction. The Island is very recommended and so peaceful and relaxing. 😊

Go where you’ll feel alive🌴
I took a trip to the most beautiful place my eyes have ever seen - Koh Rong Sanloem which is an island forming part of beautiful Cambodia. In order to get to the this majestic island you can take a ferry from Sihanoukville for approximately 20USD. On the island you’ll find plenty of resorts and hostels. The beach has crystal clear waters which you could literally swim in all day. I honestly enjoyed myself on this island and felt rejuvenated again♥️
Sihanoukville | Known as the "Oriental Pearl"
Sihanoukville
Known as Sihanoukville, it is located on the southwest coast of Cambodia and named after Prince Sihanouk. It is the largest seaport in Cambodia and the second largest city outside the capital, Phnom Penh, with a status similar to that of "Shenzhen" in China. Sihanoukville was built after 1950 to encourage investment and was established as a duty-free port in 1998. During the war, Sihanoukville was renamed as "Port of Kampong Som", but in the 1990s, it was restored to its original name.
Welcome to Sihanoukvile city in Cambodia
Welcome to Sihanoukvile city apart of Cambodia beautiful beach and Nice view of wonderful islands. We are Cambodian people please welcome to all foriegner around the world reach to visiting in our country 🙏🏻❤️ Cambodia. Come here and you all will get new experience places nice viewing mountain sea views traditional food from Cambodia and here we had Five star casino and hotel famous in Sihanoukvile city also. thanks🙏🏻❤️
Here we had International airport and passengers who can flight directly to this city.
Relaxing at the beach
Sihanoukville is a town in south of Cambodia overlooking the Gulf of Thailand. Prestine white be the beaches, clean water and year round sun make this area a perfect place for a few days relaxing or remote working with value time.
Although surounded by the sea do take your time to pick the beach you prefer as some can be very busy. Around the beach there will be places that offer food and drink and many locals go the beach on days offvto meet friends, eat and drink.
For a quieter experience you can go to Prek Treng Beach or smaller beaches around there north of the city. Just rent a three wheel tuktuk for the day (agree price and pay at the end) it will take over an hour by tuktuk or take a boat to one of the islands, about one hour sailing from the harbour, where you can also stay overnight.
The town has a local airport with domestic and some regional flights. Cheaper ways of travel are the train to Phnom Penh or one of the many busses leaving throughout the day for various towns.
sunset at KPS
Nice place to catch the golden hour.
It can be crowded at some spots but you can choose where you want to sit down.
Nearby a lot of guest houses/hotels and it has a lot of food vendors where you can enjoy local food and drinks.
Nice beach, white sand. August and September are less crowded, so it is a great time to enjoy and relax for just yourself. There is a limited place to eat so it is a good idea to bring your own foods and drinks, BBQ seafood would be fantastic. The hotel rate is reasonable for this time. Family and friends gatherings are highly recommended.
A relaxing trip 😎
It’s been long time for me to come to Sihanouk Ville. The place have changed a lot, yet the beach remain beautiful as ever 💜. There are many coffee shops, for those who love to explore coffee shop like me will definitely love them.
The one in the photo is called ‘Brown Coffee’ a Cambodia Brand coffee shop, which have many branches all around Cambodia. And here, Sihanouk branch, is located by the beach so you can enjoy both coffee and the beautiful view that spread in front of you.
Oh! It is also a great place to take photos 😉
If you ever come to Sihanouk Ville, please don’t forget to visit here 👍

Koh Rong Sonloem
Koh Rong Sonloem island is one of the best islands in Cambodia. it is very cheap and very relaxing. The water is far better from the beach in the city of Sihanoukville. The water is very clear. the island has many resorts and the island is very big. Though it's still not as big as its island sister Koh Rong. However, you still can roam around for hours. Also you can rent a boat to see the sunset in the middle of the ocean and also do snorkeling, fishing with the same package. the cost for the boat renting is around $60 to $90 for the whole day trip or half day. half day could be cheaper.
it is very nice to have a short vacation there.

After spending two nights in Koh Rong Sanloem we took the supply boat for 5$ dollars per person to the bigger of the two islands. This island is way bigger and more touristy than the smaller island. Here sou can drive for hours with the motorcycle and you only see nature. There are a few beaches and waterfallls but they are very hard to find and in the middle of the jungle. Furthermore there are a lot of restaurants on the main beach. Furthermore there are a lot of activities to do on the island such as kayaking and white water rafting. Do not miss out in the great parties in the Nest Beach Bar
Koh Rong Sanloem Crystal Clear Water
#fallingforfall
Can you imagine a better place to be than on an empty island with crystal clear water and amazing food that is affordable? i cannot. Koh Rong Sanloem is the Paradise on earth. There are many island in the world but this one is special because first of all there are no motorcycle on the islands, the island is not touristy at all. To get to the other side of the island you need to go through the jungle which means that there will only be people that are travelling with a backpack and not with a suitcase behause it is impossible to bring a suitcase there. #tripblazers #spooktaculartrip #fallingforfall

Autumn in Cambodia
#fallingforfall
This beach is one of the most amazing beaches i have been to so far in Cambodia. This beach was completely empty and it was only us at the beach. This is very typical during the low season. The high season is from November to February and can last until March. During that time there could be more people at the beach but as you can see there is plenty of space and it is very empty. There are a few resorts and hotels at the beach but most of the things are happening in the center at the main beach. if you like to get some great food i can recommend you to go to nest beach resort or white rose restaurants #tripblazers

Koh Rong island
I had such a wonderful experience at koh rong island in Cambodia last year. Me and my friends decided book a resort named jungle bay through the Trip.com app which provide 10% off since I’m the gold member. That resort service was nice, the rooms conditions, the views and the prices are exactly the same as what I saw in the Trip.com app.
