Hotels Near Koh Tonsay (Rabbit Island) in Kep

Wonderful hotel. Convenient location, 10 minutes walk to the crab market. Friendly staff. It was very pleasant to talk with Vanya, especially since I was pleasantly surprised that he knows Russian. It was an early departure and he arranged for me to be taken to Kampot. We will definitely come again.

My party of five arrived in Kep today at 6:30 pm. It was dark, and after five hours of traveling in a mini-van, we got a tuk tuk to take us to Kep Bungalows. We had reserved three rooms - 2 standards and a superior. When I entered my standard room, the smell of mold and sewer hit me. The walls were disgustingly dirty and there was a hole in the upper corner of one wall. And I am not exaggerating when I say that there was a thick coat of dust on the fan. Then I heard a knock on my door. It was my daughter. Their room, which was right next to mine, was just as dilapidated as mine. With our bags in our hands, we went to our friends’ room. Their room was nice. We told them that we were not staying. Suffice to say, when they saw the stark contrast between their superior (R3?) to our standard room (A4 & A5), they were shocked. When we explained our concerns to the desk people, they said it could not be dirty because the rooms were cleaned that morning and the man said he personally checked the cleaning himself. My son-in-law, the desk woman, and an older child went to see the room. The boy came back after a few minutes and confirmed it did stink. Then a few minutes more passed and the woman and my son-in-law came back. The woman said we had dirtied the room. Really? We were there for about 2 minutes and knew it was not going to work. When asked about the holes, she said it was just the rats (plural) and they had put tissues in the hole for that reason. Rats?! We were told, “It’s the jungle.” Uh, no it’s not. The room, they argued, is the standard room and we should have paid the higher price for the better room. We explained that we were not complaining about the size of the room, but our concern was of the cleanliness of the room. Also, when showing them the pictures on Agoda, they said we should have known those were “old photos.” What? It was, we explained, more like false advertisement and that they should update the photos so people knew what to expect. We wanted to take pictures, but they said no. By this time, the man had reached a point that started to make us uncomfortable. A few of us had already witnessed his hands balling up and was quite agitated. We called tuk tuk driver who had given us his card and spent the next hour calling several hotels to see if they had three rooms available, which were not easy to find because of the holiday, and driving to some of them to ask if we could see their rooms because we did not want to be fooled by pictures again. *My daughter and son-in-law are fluent In Khmer. The other three, including me, have been learning the language for 10+ years.

Came here for our anniversary. Beautiful large pool was the highlight. We arrived as the only guests here so the restaurant was closed for lunch and dinner and there was no buffet breakfast as booked. Limited menu at the pool bar was all that was offered. That became an issue when a tremendous thunderstorm broke out at dinner time. So they opened the restaurant just for us. HORRIBLE food. How could any food be fresh if no one eats here? The prawns tasted very old. For breakfast they have a 16 year old girl doing the cooking who does not understand English. Well done eggs is the most that she can handle. The front desk staff doesn't speak much English either. Good luck there. As one review stated ”poor hotel management” But, they don't care. The Staff simply does not care. The room was beautiful but filthy when you looked under the bed and under the couch cushions. The dead lizard was left in the tub for days until we removed it. Worst of all on Saturday and Sunday, the ”special guests” arrive. Three or four carloads of families. They are not staying there. They just bring in a bunch of local families to use the pool for the day. Babies without swim diapers using the adult pool. Unsanitary. These ”special guests” make a mess, ruin the private atmosphere and then leave. Then another 4 carloads arrive the next day. Again, they are not even staying at the resort. Again, the management could care less about the paying guests. The gym and the spa smelled like an an old moldy gym locker. No one ever used it. Spa? What Spa? Whatever you do, enjoy the pool when the special guests are not there, and please go eat at the crab market.

Quiet location - easy access if you have a motorbike or a car. Swimming pool was all good with a good design for small children. Green environment with also a lot of plants. The bathroom was of a small design and the lighting inside wasn't sufficient. Included breakfast had a limited choice especially when it comes to healthy options (vegan/plant-based) - but this we see in most places in SE-Asia - at least there was a fruit option... We thought the staff could be slightly more attentive.

The entrance to the hotel is relatively hidden, and I missed the entrance at first. The environment is very quiet and relaxing. The waiter is very friendly. The room is clean and tidy. There are not many facilities in the hotel. It is worth booking again.

This place is divine. Very small (I think only 8 rooms) and no it’s not on the waterside (but that’s a good thing). This place is about a 15 min walk to the crab market, 10 min to the national park, 10 min walk to sailing club … note there is no “town” as such so don’t look for being “in town”. For westerners there is no 711 or shopping street. It’s just one big food stalls and hammocks. But Tara lodge is unique. Beautiful pool, huge rooms, amazing restaurant and the staff (Jim especially) cannot do enough for you. We were here for 2 nights and we were the only guests (Cambodian election). We are in our 60’s from Australia and we walked 8km or more around Kep national park. There is a “convenience” store at end of the street which sells everything but the wine and beer at the hotel was great. Food was divine. The chocolate fondue… don’t share! 😀

We stayed one night at Knai Bang Chatt Resort, it is a stunning beachfront resort in Kep, Cambodia, that offers an idyllic escape. We enjoyed the ocean views, the gorgeous swimming pool, and the delicious food served at the resort's restaurants. Having lunch and dinner at The Wave is the best. Delicious food: The resort's restaurants serve up a variety of fresh, delicious food, including Khmer cuisine and Western options. If you're looking for a romantic getaway or a relaxing family vacation, Knai Bang Chatt Resort is the perfect place to stay. We strong recommend.

The room is really nice, and it's location is quiet and safe.

The hotel looks nice but a little bit dusty, our room also looks nice but it was full of mosquitoes which is super annoying, we had to use mosquitoes spray to totally cover ourselves all the time and be careful with the door to bathroom since bathroom is an open space with only half of the ceiling. But still we got beaten up a lot. The curtains were super dirty covered with dead insects, the AC was not too functional but they put this AC blows right on the bed which made me and and my boyfriend both sick after the tour. And the rooms are not private enough, the description says swimming pool view, but actually the swimming pool just 5 meters in front our room. Overall I like the design of the rooms but there are many details were not satisfying, especially with the price, it could be the most expensive hotel I have tried in Cambodia, but experience was seriously so so.

The hotel is new and modern, but far from the town centre. It has two small pools, neither of which looked particularly appealing, especially the one on the Boutique side. My room (311) was clean and tidy, but the bathroom had some problems. The bath was not installed properly and could have fallen over as it wasn't silicone sealed to the floor (no building safety checks in Cambodia). The bath tap had no hot water, only the shower did. The shower had no door, so the water splashed onto the floor and wall. This caused dampness in the bedroom wall. The room was supposed to be 40m2, but it was definitely smaller, even with the balcony. The hotel was also very noisy. There was a railway line next to it with passenger and freight trains passing by. Across the street, there was a house with chickens and a dog. The roosters started to crow at 4:30am and the dog barked soon after. I could not do anything about them because they belonged to a private Cambodian house. The best part of the hotel experience was the breakfast (except for the flies on the food that is sitting out) and the staff. They were all friendly.
