Firefly Guesthouse

The location and the staff was just awesome. The rooms are very cute, right above the water. One has to know that the rooms are basic (as most of the accommodations are on the island). However if you can live without an AC then this place is just the right one for you as it offers a cozy outside space and a view you cannot miss.

Amazing location, very tranquil hostel with incredible views of the sea. Really friendly staff and the food at the restaurant was really tasty. Great vibes and reasonably priced.

Host and staff were friendly , and room had a shower.

Not the fault of the host , but it was very loud throughout the night from dogs barking, loud fishing boats and other guests moving around which unfortunately meant we didn’t sleep well once across our 5 nights. Also a brighter light in the room would have been helpful as had to use torches a lot.

Oh what a beautiful place this was. We stayed in both the dorm and the private room and it was just wonderful. The location on top of the water with fantastic views, the relax area, the comfy beds, the bucket shower, the coffee and the always changing but almost always positive and friendly people around made it really extra special. The internet was also good enough for working and there’s a delish cheapish restaurant nearby.

Nothing. It was all great

Firefly guesthouse is absolutely beautiful. I planned on only staying two nights, but kept extending. This is a place you don’t want to leave. Waking up at the riverside, having a swim and just watching the boats go by.. absolute bliss. The owner and his family are also so friendly and accommodating, and the food is so good and fresh. They also can make their dishes vegan. This is the perfect place is you want somewhere to just relax and take it all in. Really loved it there!

I guess the only thing is that the Wi-Fi stopped working after 2 days. But when the Wi-Fi was working it was really good. A great place to work remotely while watching the sea.

First of all the staff and family are always available to help. Incredible view for sunrise and sunset. Sleeping over the water was so peaceful, nice rooms and the deck is the main star of the place to meet people and to relax.

Prices for food and drink are a little high, but I understand it because of the remote place.

You can't really believe how beautiful the view is from the terrace here. You can just sit and watch the local boats coming and going! Nice location, out of the way, and very quiet. The staff and locals are very friendly, there are a few other shops and food places nearby. The food at firefly is excellent and well priced. Lonely beach is 45 mins walk away, and really worth the trip. Beautiful and virtually.deserted. When you book a room, the manager will send you details of how to get to the village and offer you three options. I chose the village supply boat from Sihanoukville. This costs $7.50 and is a great way to arrive. The supply boat motors past Firefly, then you have a 5 minute walk back. The supply boat leaves from Pier 52 outside the Main Por.t, about 2 KM and 6000 Riel in Tuk Tuk .

The location.

The dorm resembles a ghetto. The main door doesn't lock or shut. There is no lock in the bathroom and it is a common one for all the outside guests who come to hang out. No running flush. The floor is creaky and one can feel it on the bed when others walk around. The food is overpriced. The activities are over priced - a surcharge of $10 is charged per person for no reason. The host tried to take double the amount for the boat ride to the village from Sihnaukville. I had also asked him to keep the bed for one more night which he totally forgot to do. This place is overrated and the only good thing about it is the location and the view.

Authentic wooden house on the water in a traditional fishing village in the north of the island. Cozy atmosphere, everything made out of wood. Nice view on the sea. Kayak available for free. Nice staff. Scooters also available for renting and it's probably the best way to explore the island. Close to Lonely Beach, a stunning beach with also lot of shade (10 minutes by scooter or 1 hour walking). Food was traditional, simple but good. The place is super quiet at night, with nothing to do closeby, which we really enjoyed. But if you're more a party type it's probably not your place since going to the main village in the south take about half an hour and at night feels even more.

Rooms are basic, which is fine, but with really a little effort could be better. Light in the room is extremely low, which is not the best when you like reading. But you can read outside of course...

Lovely view, very quiet and has tasty food and places to chill out. Receptionist was very helpful.

The location is a bit out of the way, with Lonely beach being at least a 40 minute walk. Aside from that all good.
