Hanchey Bamboo Resort

Very nice and laidback location, people are so friendly here. The bungalows are comfortabel and the food is great

It is a little too remote from Kampong Cham, so in the evening it is quite boring.

Super nice houses, really photogenic area. Big pool. Staff is friendly.

Location is very far from the city center (1h with a tuk tuk), and there weren’t a lot of people over there to socialise with. Wouldn’t go here if you are a solotraveler, but to do as a couple this is a really nice spot. There was no yoga given during the time and I also didn’t find the yoga center (could have been the building that was guarded by a couple of growling dogs, but couldn’t get closer).

The staff are absolutely amazing, friendly, helpful and delightful. We really love the concept of this place ... to provide English and hospitality training to young people who need an extra bit of help. The grounds are really beautiful and peaceful. The swimming pool provided a welcome escape from the heat.

No air conditioning. Talk all you like about eco-friendly and the "fresh air of the Mekong" ... the fact is that at this time of the year, Cambodia is hellishly hot and unbearably humid, and we spent several miserable nights there unable to sleep, unable to escape the abominable conditions. There are overhead fans, right over the bed, which only served to push hot air around and give us a sore throat. It completely spoiled our short holiday. The rooms are spacious, but poorly equipped and with minimal facilities. The tariffs are high, but, for example, no small fridge, no toiletries aside from soap and toothbrushes, no TV ... many people would not worry about this, but for the price, I would expect the full range of facilities and services. The drainage in the bathroom was so bad that water seeped into the bedroom area, and my partner slipped over. I dried the floor with one of the bathroom towels and left it on the floor for the cleaning staff to remove, only to find when i got back to the room that they had hung it in the bathroom to dry for us to use the next day, even though it was a) on the floor, and b) extremely dirty. The standard of cleaning is appalling ... I felt reluctant to use the toilet and to touch anything in the bathroom. It was very bad. Breakfast doesn't commence until 8am, another issue that would inconvenience many people. The food in the restaurant is very limited and very average, even poor. One morning I wanted to go for a 5.30am walk around the beautiful grounds, but was frightened off by 2 large dogs, roaming free and barking ferociously. So all in all, even though it is great to support this type of venture, it has a very long way to go before it could be considered to be a good holiday option, let alone a resort - calling itself a resort, as it does right now, is just not accurate, even false advertising. I would give it an overall rating of 2*.

Nice location, well kept grounds, helpful staff. Buildings are unusual and cosy.

plastic bottles and other rubbish is lying around, pool could be cleaner, smoke from burning was very unpleasant

Breakfast was included, which was nice. The free yoga lesson included in the booking was extra nice!

The room gets very hot and the 2 fans were not helping much, difficult to sleep at night. The bathroom/toilet & shower room is separated from the room by only a wall (with no door), which is not ideal for privacy.
