Guest Reviews
- cody (6/5): - During my stay, I enjoyed the staff at the property however I didn't like the noisy guests that were staying at Happy Elephant.
- Manon (6/5): - Cute property with a lot of greens..very basic bungalow with terrace. The steep way of from the main road is grose. Lots of garbage next to the road and you can smell the vermin. The bungalow is open and therefore loud. Noisy neighbours and lots of birds.
When you bring your earplugs, mosquito repellent , use the mosquito net and enjoy the village and beaches (scooters recommended!), youll have a great stay! Very centrally located. Kind staff.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Den Bungalow vi boede i var meget slidt og der var åbent ud til alle steder, i loftet, gulvet og i væggene. Toilettet var klamt og ikke noget sted man havde lyst til at gå i bad. Udover det løb der mus/rotter rundt på vores værelse, da de kunne komme ind over alt. Til sidst var der larm fra dyr og fest nede på stranden
- Laura (8/5): - Staff was realy nice an friendly and give us a good intro. Communication was easy and good.
Room was ok but not like on the picture. But clean and in good condition, shower an AC worked well. Bed smelled a bit like mold, but not strong. There was s lot of trash in fornt of the window. Its in an area with may buildings an unfortunately a lot of trash.
In room you could here all the other guests. Wifi was not good, it break up all the time. Working online is not possible here. If you only travel its fine.
- K2843WTerinr (6/5): Average stay - Average stay for us and the room we stayed in. The staff were friendly and they offered trips and motorbike rental they also gave us a few discount vouchers for local bars and food spots which was great. They stocked us with water everyday and fresh towels. 😄 The bed was too hard, there was sand all over the floor when we arrived which only got worse but we can’t complain too much as we are on an island. However the sink was full of ants. The location isn’t the best at the top of a hill but it did the job and it was an easy walk to koh touch.
- Juho (10/5): Suosittelen - Hintaan suhteutettuna majoitus oli täydellinen. Ainakin oma ilmastointi toimi hyvin ja huone oli niin siisti kuin tuolla hinnalla voi vain toivoa. Sijainti oli myös loistava ja rauhallinen jos haluaa majoittua sataman läheisyydessä. Ystävällinen henkilökunta ja ylipäätään kaikki toimi kuten piti. Itselläni ei ollut bungalowia vaan sellainen tavallinen kahden hengen huone.
- Thomas (4/5): Trop bruyant - Si vous désirez être au calme ne choisissez pas ce lieu. Bien que rudimentaire et infesté de moustiques, le confort est acceptable. Cependant les bruits la nuit ne vous laisseront pas dormir : un chien aboie régulièrement à toute heure et les autres résidents de l’hôtel, irrespectueux, ne manqueront pas de vous réveiller lorsqu’ils rentreront de soirée. Certains ne passeront qu’une nuit ici et ne seront là que pour la fête sans ce soucier de leurs voisins.
Ma suggestion : 1. imposer un règlement intérieur qui précise bien à chaque résident l’obligation de respecter le sommeil des autres après une certaine heure (cela semble évident mais forcé de constater que ça ne l’est pas pour tout le monde) 2. Demander aux propriétaires du chien de trouver une solution : en prendre soin par exemple.
- Guillaume (10/5): - Bien situé (un peu a l'écart de l'agitation). Chambre propre avec une bonne literie. Le patron est très agréable et répond à toutes vos interrogations
- Florian (8/5): - Cozy basic place. Nice staff!
- Phavorath (8/5): - Could not sleep the first night (Thursday). Some people talked loudly between 11:00 PM and 3:30 AM.
However the next day was quiet.
- Tim (6/5): - Was ok
- eric (6/5): - Chambre sommaire. Présence d'insectes volatils en nombre. Fumigène chaque jour pour éradiquer. Extérieur très sales, présence d'ordures partout. Personnel et patron agréable heureusement mais le rapport qualité prix ne reste pas satisfaisant.
- Jeremiah (6/5): - Decent place, bit expensive but expected for the island
- Maria del Juncal (10/5): - La habitacion y el baño amplios y muy limpios(todos los dias lo limpaban) y todos los dias nos dejaban tambien agua y para hacernos el cafe. Todos los trabajadores muy amables y sonrientes y hay una terraza arriba donde subiamos a desayunar en la que se esta de lujo.
Calidad /precio no se puede pedir mas.
Hemos estado muuuuuy agusto! O kun!!!!
- Alepuj (6/5): Average - The location is good as it's very close to the beach and the restaurants.
The room was very basic which is ok considering the price. Bed sheets were dirty and the staff changed them when this was notified.
They offer motorbike renting service at $10 per day which is a great price and you can go around the island.
- Wilhelmus (10/5): - Brilliant place. Excellent value. Both times I stayed the I extended my stay several times. It is a bit like living in a Cambodian village, it is rustic, it is real. You're about 150 meters away from the beach, so you don't hear loud music when you want to sleep, I stayed in the cabin like rooms. They are big and it is really nice when the sun comes up.
- Squirrelz92 (10/5): Great bungalows with easy Access to all main activities on the island! - Happy éléphant bungalows IS situated on the main Koh Touch beach as you arrive on the island. It is a step climb bit the bungalows are great, cleaned everyday and the staff IS Amazing! Great advice on what to do on the island by Sabina! Motorbike renting service for 10 bucks a day with free refueling. Thé nice thing IS that thèse bungalows are far from the noisier party atmosphère of 4K beach but close enough that should you want to party its only a 20 minutes walk! Make sure to take your phone for its flashlight though.
The owner, having no restaurant included in the hôtel, gave us 10% discount vouchers for 4 nearby restaurants which Can be reused daily. Make sure to use them as cambodia as become quite expensive.
Arriving just After raining Season out bungalow was around 22$ per day which, for three people, with a nice terrace and hammock IS great value. I have read the procès Can double or even triple during high Season though but i Guess its common on the island.
All in all i highly recommand happy éléphant bungalow and will be coming back!
- in_sf701 (2/5): Worst experience ever - When we arrived we noticed that the sink was loose, there was a huge space between the sink and the wall (my hand fit there). When I was brushing my teeth I put my hand on the sink and it fell and broke!!
The owner made us pay the value of the sink!!But when we arrive at an hotel we expect everything to be in order and we never think that the sink could fall off with just one touch.
It could have landed on my feet and caused several cuts. Fortunately it didn't happen but the owner didn't have the sensitivity to forgive us the amount of the sink when it wasn't our fault AT ALL.
When we pay for a room we expect that will be in good conditions!!!
Never again!!!
- Khalid (8/5): - .
- Khalid (10/5): - The staff and the owner are very nice and Kind. The owner is so helpful with information that is important for new travelers to know, More importantly what to do and how to avoid any issues. Their main aim is to ensure you have a good trip. I got a simple fan room, it was clean, it was quiet and i was comfortable. I recommend this establishment. I was also in the building and not the bungalows as all bungalows on the Island are in the forest. Im not very good around bugs.
- 218ollieg (10/5): Lovely, old school style bungalows near to beautiful Koh Tuch beach with a fantastic little Italian restaurant just down the roa - I had a lovely week long stay here in March. Krasi, the Bulgarian owner, and his wife and very friendly and helpful. I love to lie in a hammock and one afternoon my hammock broke, this is not surprising as I'm over 100kg and spent a lot of time in it! Krasi's wife fixed it for me immediately. I have been traveling to SE Asia for over 20 years and the bungalows here are typical and similar to the bungalows I have spent many months in in southern Thailand. They are large and well maintained with 2 decent sized beds. They also come with a couple of fans and a kettle. This is not luxury accommodation so if that is what you want this place is not for you. If you are looking for a more old school natural experience though you will be very happy here. I was. And I miss it a lot.
- daras671 (10/5): Back again soon! - Best Resort in Koh Rong. Good for everything - Room was very clean, receptionist staffs are very friendly and kind, they provide us the good service. Great food, breakfast & lunch are delicious, and dinner also good. My girlfriend love this place and she tell me to book this place again for our next holiday.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Simple bungalow close to harbor - First you have to be aware you might gwt a bungalow high up which meana several steep and uneven stone steps. The lower number on the bungalow the closer to rhe street. On the other hand, higher number is rewarded with a better view! As for February 2020 there is a construction next to the hotel which can wake you up early, but also blocking parts of your view.
I really enjoyed both bed and pillow! Mosquito nets over both beds! Owner very friendly and helpful.
In the bathroom it was constantly water on the floor coming from the toilet water tank (not sewed water), owner said that was normal. We also struggled with closing the doors. One night the music from the parties woke us up all night but nayveyif you're on the island for party that won't be a trouble for you.
Three fans in the room was on the flip side!
- Nuruth (10/5): Good place for Honeymooners😍 - The bungalow can be selected from low to high up to Hill's edges, quiet and closed to Mini-mart and restaurants just few minute walk.
Recommend to be there on full moon day would be great for those who love romantic or anniversary celebration.
RECOMMENDED!!!
- tomislavk418 (10/5): 10 days in heaven - Relly nice accommodation and the prices are more than fair. The staff is friendly and gave us all the information about the island and took us for fishing and we made a really nice grilled fish that we catch. Near the center of village...
- PaulGen (8/5): Very nice place - Just 2 minutes from the main action so not far but quiet. Clean and charming bungalows, hot water and very nice staff who provides advices on what to do on the island, and offers activities. We will go back
- Karpaatur (10/5): Great staff and nice bungalows - Nice location, only 2 minutes walk from the beach and most of the restaurants. We were very satisfied with our bungalow, and there was hot water in the shower. Krasi was a great host, providing especially a relaxed stay.
- Q2703OCjulies (10/5): Good value for money :) - We highly enjoyed our stay in the bungalow - first hot shower we got on the islands. Plus a super nice host, really chilled and gave us lots of tips. If you book now the two puppies are still incredibly cute :)
- Alexander (6/5): Disappointed - I expected for much better. Check out time is 10 AM- Ridiculous
- 106valeriek (2/5): Horrible experience - Very dirty room and bathroom, absolutely not worth the price. The bathroom hasn’t been cleaned at all. Everywhere is dust and spiderwebs and even rats. Staff and Bulgarian manager are very rude and unfriendly. We got a view to the construction site. Stay away!
- davidemenegalli (8/5): Happy and beautiful bungalow - I stayed 4 days with My family, the bungalow was clean, the beds were comfortable and the personal very friendly. All was very chill, perfect for us. If we come back in Koh Rong, we will also come back to happy elephant bungalow.
- Erik (2/5): Mange trapper - Meget primitiv. Og mange stejle trapper. Ikke noget for ældre. 97 trappetrin op ad en stejl klippe. Ingen daglig rengøring. Vi måtte afkorte med 2 dage.
- Sightseer733503 (10/5): Krásny ostrov - Beautiful accommodation. Pleasant staff. Cheap and modest equipment what it should be. Not at the beach, but the frame is silent.I recommend to everyone. Treba skúsiť. Je to super. Určite sa sem vrátim.
- 413edenp (10/5): Clean and quiet - As budget backpackers this place was a little out of our price range, but with the tropical storm hitting, we couldn't get to any of the other beaches on the island. Boy am I glad we ended up here. Absolutely gorgeous wooden bungalows with a big deck, mosquitoe nets, very clean bathroom and the whole front of the room was a giant pair or sliding glass doors. As long as you don't mind a little bit of a climb to get up here (you'll want to get away from the excessively loud music in the village), it's the perfect place to stay on Koh Touch
- Caroline (8/5): Mysigt - Trevlig personal och mysig plats, vi hade dock två gigantiska geckos i vår bungalow under nätterna som var väldigt högljudda och läskiga.
- Venture774744 (8/5): Very nice staff - Very nice place! Locted in kho rong island. Beautiful wooden bungalows and hot water.
Unfortunately we had a problem with our booking. Krasi came and fix it right away. We appreciate his help and kindness.
- AliCrei (2/5): Dirty room with mosquitoes everywhere! - We have one night left at this place and cannot wait to leave. When we arrived we were told that we had cancelled our reservation - which we hadn't. I then had an email from the company we booked through informing me that we had gone down as a 'no show'. Anyway they had a room for us (not a bungalow as booked) so we took it as we'd walked up the hill with all our luggage. The room itself is spacious and has aircon. The bed is okay. There is blood spattered on the walls, presumably from other guests swatting mosquitoes, of which there are plenty. When we booked this it was indicated that each room had a mosquito net, which I feel is necessary. Also the walls are incredibly thin and the door is lockable only with a padlock which doesn't feel particularly secure. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone, there are plenty of other rooms to rent that are probably better value for money!
- dominickp765 (6/5): Standard bungalow, ruined view - We booked a bungalow at happy elephant due to it's location - a great view across the bay and away from the noise of the village. Our bungalow was at the very top, so we had to climb a LOT of very steep and very slippery steps with our luggage. Don't be fooled, this is a hard climb if you are in a top bungalow.
Unfortunately, a new hotel is being built right in front of Happy Elephant so the view is now ruined. Although we could still see the bay from our very top bungalow, the next bungalow down looked out onto the new hotel next door. This is such a shame as I'm sure the view was fantastic before. The bungalows near the bottom of the site didn't have a view of the bay/building site of new hotel, however had a much nicer view of the jungle/other bungalows.
The actual bungalow was fairly standard, with a fan and mosquito net. There was nice seating area inside and a hammock on the terrace. The bathroom was built into the hillside so was very rustic! Without the view, quite expensive for what it is.
- RamasamyK6 (6/5): nice rooms - we stayed for just one night in the front room close to the reception. we like this place a lot. wooden rooms.
I could have given 4 or 5 star. but there is no Wi-Fi at all..
There is some construction work going on nearby this hotel so too noisy in day time.
there was one single bed and one double bed in the room. mosquito net was damaged completely in the single bed. but it was ok in the double bed. we just used the double bed.
- 504marcandr_c (2/5): MONEY stolen $ - Money was stolen from me during my stay. No cameras or anything could prove anything, but there is only staff that have access to my room. Be very careful and bring your valuables with you. Over 100$US.
