Sokha Beach Resort

My friend and I had a relaxing stay at this hotel but it is far away from the shops. The hotel grounds are spacious with plenty of space for expansion. Nightlife or a family show would be a welcome addition to this hotel. However, it does have a casino and cabaret in the evening for adults.

We booked this hotel because of the beach and to be honest there are not many options We were upgraded to the water villas which are very nice but they definitely need a lot of maintenance! The water around is only mud, horrible smell full of mosquitoes and to be honest simply disgusting. The villas are ok but not worth the price They really need to put some effort to make them nicer not only the villas but all their surroundings even the streets The rest of the hotel is very nice. Friendly staff but they need to speak more english. Food was very good but overall to be a 5 star hotel they need a lot of improvement! Anyway I will recommend this hotel

We stayed at Sohka Beach for 2 weeks and for the most part found it excellent, lovely pool and long sandy beach. The exception was some food. We had 2 unsatisfactory meat meals in the main restaurant, sent one back back and did go there again except for breakfast. It appears that the hotel is not buying the best quality meat. On the other hand, we found the Lemongrass beach restaurant, which gave us excellent and pleasant service with wonderful sea and duck dishes.

We had an enjoyable stay here and glad we decided to stay here given it has direct access to the nicest beach in Sihanoukville hands down! The only downside in staying at this hotel was due to how pricey it was to eat at their restaurants and the quality of food was ok. Lemongrass was ridiculously expensive and going into town for a feed is a better option.

Breakfast was included but was served cold every day even the coffee. The service was terrible in the restaurant's.

Two days is not enough to enjoy everything. Love the hotel and the beach and will be back for longer stay.

Pricey resort for what you get. Room wasnt ready at check-in and was palmed off with a lower grade room than what we'd booked. After refusing that, eventually got into a room approx 90mins after check-in was meant to be. Bar and restaurant were pricey, with 5% tip automatically added to everything, even just a drink. Facilities were clean but hotel lacked atmosphere and felt more like a business hotel. Would only recommend this if you plan to spend all your hol on a beach lounger rather than visiting the area.

We happened to be there for our wedding anniversary and Christmas Eve. For our anniversary we purchased an additional romantic package which included the spa and a beautiful dinner in a lone table on the beach surrounded by candles. Probably the most romantic evening ever.

Chaos at the front desk upon check-in. We didn't receive a cold towel or a welcome drink. The rooms are drab and sparse. The locks on the door to the room in the main bedroom was sketchy at best. The main elevator was under repair and the second elevator had fumes that smelled like diesel. I had to take the stairs because I couldn't stand the smell. The price was way too much. The breakfast had some variety in general, but not much variety across the week. There was also bad papaya in the fruit. The towel card system was a pain (one towel per guest). The swim up bar reeked of stale beer. The staff we encountered were very helpful. We enjoyed the tuk-tuk drivers from Sohka. The restaurants were also pricey. We had the Thursday night seafood buffet. Some of the prawns were not fully cooked. The buffet was $25 (not a good value). They wouldn't give us a late check out more than 30 minutes although it really seemed like business was down. I am so glad we did not stay in the bungalows on the water. They looked to be standing over stagnant water and all I could think of were the mosquitoes. Only about a couple of the units had a view worth mentioning. The resort we stayed at in Siem Reap was so much better and at a much lower cost (1/4 the price). Independence Hotel looks like it would have been a more enjoyable option. Though the hotel was lacking, Sihanoukville was great. We especially enjoyed snorkeling, some of the restaurants in town, the beach, and the sunshine!

The stay was incredible. Not only did we have ocean view of the Gulf of Thailand, but it was a 1 min walk to the beach. We went during off season so my family and I felt like we had the place to ourselves!The cleanliness, was on point. The service, and the food..it was a win/win all the way around! The service was impressive. The people are so kind. Couldn't of asked for a better experience! If you are thinking about traveling to Sihanoukville, Cambodia, I highly recommend this resort!
