Independence Beach, located in Sihanoukville, is a nearly 2-kilometer-long stretch of coastline flanked by the Independence Hotel to the north and Holiday Palace Resort to the south. While high-rise construction projects have somewhat obstructed its once stunning views, this unassuming beach remains a great spot for leisurely walks and taking in scenic vistas. Visitors can also find solace at a tranquil freshwater lake towards the northwest end of the beach.
Very nice place to relax. Blue water and not much people. Powder sand 😃 In the evening very nice. Many locals come here. Eat on the beach,.music.....

Wouldn't go there again. A lot of thrash and the sea doesn't look clean either. People chilling around there might make you feel uncomfortable. It has nice sunsets tho.

We bought our food in the local food market. It was cooked directly in the market. Then, we had our lunch on the beach where we rented a table and a few chairs. The independance beach is perfect for lunch/diner and for swimming in the sea as well. The sand was nice, white and smooth and there were few people. Great place for family hangout’s. But, if you want nobody near the beach, for instance if you want more privacy for couples, it’s better to go to a beach dedicated to swimming.

Otres Beach is a stunning stretch of white sand adorned with tamarisk and casuarina trees, making it a popular destination for first-time visitors to Sihanoukville. Despite the touristy shops and eateries, the beach has managed to maintain a cleaner and less crowded atmosphere compared to its neighbors. This three-kilometer crescent of white sand offers a more relaxed vibe, especially at the far end where it's less touristed.
Very nice place for now and special price hotel 2022

Best after 5pm due to paralyzing heat. Since roads, wide sidewalks, and free public toilets n showers installed, it's been drawing in the local crowd n vendors. Looking up!

Otres beach lose the charm and authenticity of its original because of the heavily of chinese investment in this area and overall sihanoukville. This beach used to be very nice and calm but not anymore. There are some hotels around this area.
Nguon Sominea — Google review
Not much here was my opinion, the large road and paved area next to the beach make the area look barren. Opposite large areas of derelict buildings or half built structures add nothing to it's charm. To be honest, avoid Sinoukville completely.

Nice place to catch the golden hour. It can be crowded at some spots but you can choose where you want to sit down. Nearby a lot of guest houses/hotels and it has a lot of food vendor where you can enjoy local food and drinks.
Joanna Marie Reg — Google review
The waters were clean and very warm, but the beach had a lot of garbage... as well as the whole area actually which is a construction place of Chinese mega resorts. Although I must admit, one can catch a pretty impressive sunset from Otres beach, there is really nothing else interesting to do or to see here. In my opinion, unless you are catching a plane/ferry and you have to spend a night in Sihanoukville, you may skip the area entirely.

Pretty beach and good sand but unfortunately the Chinese are destroying the area with their high rise buildings making the Cambodian coastline a place for the lower income Chinese tourists to spend their holidays

It's my most favorite beach in Sihanoukville. It's nice and chill. Well, personally not very nice compared to before the massive construction (better than a few months ago and years before). Otres is a long beach, a nice location close to many guesthouse and hotels around.

I visited here on 24 - 25 Jan 2023, it has changed a lot since my last visit back in 2019. There were no more kois, on the beach and it serves the public. You may enjoy family activities here (BBQ, Sunbathing, Swimming, Jogging or Relaxed). You may bring your staff here if you preferred or you may rent from local vendors. Food is limited but there were a few options that you can order from local vendors at the beach. There were a few landmarks created (#សិលាបដ្ដបណ្ដាសា #ដើមឈើស្នេហ៍ #សិលាចាំស្នេហ៍)។ I look forward to the next BBQ and relaxed by the beach trip soon.

The beach are clean with white sand and free of charge for everyone. There are food stall and foods seller walking (but they are not selling main dish) along the beach to sell grilled squids, octopus, papaya salad, fried meat ball and so on. It would be nice if you could bring ur own picnic mat, some foods and drinks. You could enjoy seeing sunset almost everyday beside raining day.

Waterfalls
Just a short distance from Sihanoukville, Cambodia, lies the picturesque Kbal Chhay Waterfalls. The falls are formed by the Prek Teuk Sap River as it flows over limestone cliffs, creating a stunning natural spectacle. Accessible by road, the journey to the waterfalls involves navigating a muddy and unpaved 10-km approach with potholes, so caution is advised when driving.
It's free, but you technically need to pay 500 Riel ( 0.12$) for crossing the bridge to the waterfalls. I'd say it's worth it. I went there on 3rd February 2024. There was still some water. It's a chill place to relax in nature. There are some food stores there.

It was meh until you see the steeper falls not the shallow pools most congregate at. Other than that, enjoy the underwhelming loud karaoke, cigarette smoke, rough access road, stray dogs, mosquitoes, and waist-high "waterfalls."

Nice nature but less water, better to go end of the year just after rainy season. Not cleaned, so a lot of trash and the new pp to SHV highway spoils the view now!

Easy to get to located on the Prek Tuk Sap River great scenery and a good place to swim and have a picnic if you so desire. Nice way to spend a bit of time out of Sihanoukville. We went on the river as well and visited a couple of fishing villages so all-inclusive thing with the falls it was a good day.

Best natural waterfalls in Sihanoukville. First, they had this resrvoir nearby, which made the hourney here amazing fron the beautiful sceneries. Even though at that time, it's still unfinished. Then you arrive at the red sanded parking spot, walk a bit, cross the mini bridge then voila! The waterfalls and it's river! They also had these small huts to take rest or had lunch. All of them were locals btw, but don't worry, they won't bite :) everyone just busy with their own thing. Enjoy the water from the falls, or walk a bit deeper to the smaller river. The water just cristal clear and shallow, perfect to take a dip. Refreshing after walking under the sun. Just be careful coz the river bed is a bit rocky and slippery.
rachmat — Google review
This place offers an enchanting experience with abundant greenery and a breathtaking waterfall. The natural beauty is truly captivating. However, it's essential to be aware that the tranquility might be disturbed by loud noise from big speakers brought by some visitors. Despite that, if you can overlook the noise, the scenery is worth it. Do keep in mind that accessing the location from SHV can be challenging, especially during the rainy season, so plan your trip accordingly.

Koh Rong, also known as Paradise or Shelter Island, is a popular tourist destination in Cambodia. It is the second largest island in the country and has undergone significant development in recent years. The island boasts stunning natural beauty with white sand beaches, forests, and coral reefs. Visitors can engage in various activities such as scuba diving, snorkeling, stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking, and sailboat charters.
One of South East Asia's best kept secrets. A 45 minute trip by boat from the boom port city of #sihanoukville, Koh Rong is a beautiful island with lush green landscapes and pristine beaches. The island is thankfully not commercialized..and so is a great place to relax, and enjoy nature and water activities in the day...while at night the F&B scene is quite vibrant with plenty of options from fresh seafood to pizza. Highly recommended! 👍 #cambodia #kohrong #asianislands

Koh Rong is one of the most beautiful islands around Cambodia. One of the best beach or in other words, one of the most beautiful beach in south east asia, ist the Long Beach (7,5km Long). It’s the beach, where you need to go, the sand is like snow and it sounds the same, when you walk over it. The sand is like snow powder. And the water is crystal clear!!! The second beautiful beach is the 4K beach near the longset pier. On the long beach side, the food options are very limited and it doesn’t taste really good. The prices are really high!!! But on the other hand, you have the most beautiful beach in front of you. The south of the island, 4K Beach and also white beach, there are some few good food options for an average price available.

It feels odd to review an island created by Mother Nature, the white sand is incredible and the water is clear. But the human aspect deserves a review. The Royal Group is going to turn this island into a Chinese resort with casinos, golf courses and a new airport. Many people agree, the island is already expensive but this will make it a luxury destination. We spoke with a couple local people from the village and they are far from happy about the island take over. They are losing their land and are powerless to stop the developers. Simply put, you don’t get what you pay for on Koh Rong. Currently a 15 minute taxi costs $20, alternatively a scooter is $15 per day. Nightly accommodations are extremely expensive for the quality and service provided. We stayed in a basic bungalow without A/C, hot water, fridge, kettle and the electric only worked from dusk til dawn. Sadly this bungalow was the same price as our favorite hotel(on a beach, complete amenities) in Vietnam, but to compare the two is laughable. Food is double to triple the price from the mainland and neighboring countries. If you’ve been to Vietnam or Thailand, the hotels, restaurants and services will surely disappoint you.

Koh Rong, an idyllic island off the coast of Cambodia, captivates visitors with its pristine beaches, azure waters, and lush tropical landscapes. Stepping onto its shores feels like entering a paradise untouched by time. The island offers a diverse range of activities, from lazing on the powdery white sands of Long Beach to exploring the vibrant marine life through snorkeling or diving in crystal-clear waters. The laid-back atmosphere of Koh Rong is complemented by the friendly locals and charming beachfront accommodations. Accommodations vary from rustic bungalows to upscale resorts, catering to different preferences and budgets. The island's nightlife, centered around beach parties and fire shows, adds a lively touch to the tranquil setting. For nature enthusiasts, trekking through the dense jungles reveals hidden waterfalls and panoramic viewpoints. However, the island strikes a balance between adventure and relaxation, making it suitable for both thrill-seekers and those seeking serenity. While the lack of extensive infrastructure contributes to its unspoiled charm, visitors should be prepared for basic amenities. Limited Wi-Fi and sporadic electricity may be encountered, but these elements only enhance the rustic experience of Koh Rong. In conclusion, Koh Rong stands as a haven for those seeking an escape from the hustle and bustle, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural charm, and a laid-back atmosphere.

Slice of Paradise. Clear turquoise waters and white sandy beaches. Buuut - also depends where exactly you go. We stayed at Luna Resort for that much needed peace and quiet after a hectic Phuket and Koh Chang. Totally worth it. But would advise to come with some 7-Eleven shopping before coming as no shops nearby like in the beaches in the south. Loved it
Andy Karemani — Google review
My experience on Koh Rong left me utterly dissatisfied, contradicting the dream that was sold to me of a paradise with white-sand beaches and crystal-blue waters. While those elements were present to some extent, the pervasive issue overshadowing the island is the alarming amount of rubbish strewn across its shores. Staying at Koh Touch only intensified this problem, with an overwhelming amount of litter around the numerous restaurants. Even resorts, where efforts were occasionally made to clear debris in the immediate vicinity, failed to address the broader concern. Long Srt Beach, extending a wide length of the island, was shockingly inundated with refuse. Resorts along the beach made token efforts to tidy the area directly in front of their deckchairs, but just a short stroll down the beach revealed heaps of rubbish washing up from other regions or carelessly discarded by locals. Even seemingly quieter beaches like Coconut Beach and Long Beach (Sok San) were not immune to this issue, albeit on a slightly smaller scale. Witnessing people sunbathing and taking pictures seemingly oblivious to the garbage surrounding them left me deeply disheartened. Despite the evident problem, there was a stark lack of visible efforts to address it. Instead of witnessing active initiatives to combat the issue, I observed half-naked sunbathers and individuals practicing yoga amidst encroachments of plastic. The island has been declared unsafe for swimming due to contamination, yet this did not deter people from indulging in the waters. The stark contrast between the island's natural beauty and the blatant environmental neglect is disconcerting and demands urgent attention.

I love this island. It has the perfect blend of fun and beauty. If you want peaceful paradise there is a beach for it. If you want all night party there is a beach for it.... Never seen more perfect sand and sea. Also Koh Rong Ink do great tattoos and Koh Rong Pub Crawl is really fun 😁

Sandan is an internationally acclaimed restaurant in Sihanoukville, Cambodia that provides training and employment opportunities to disadvantaged youths. The menu features a variety of Khmer dishes and cocktails, as well as international delights.
Really picture of the food, good look and much delicious Cambodian cuisine. Wonderful restaurant with comfortable both local customers and foreign customers in beautiful gardens setting. Good price and suitable in Khmer market prices. Good service by orphans children and adults that support and help by an organization.

The food was quite good and the atmosphere is great, perfect for a hot midday. The staff (students) are very attentive. The downside is the staff don’t speak any English or seem to understand any. We asked for doggy bags (or takeaways) the leftovers because we ordered too much and still had like half the food unfinished. Asked them 3 times because we weren’t sure they understood since they didn’t say a word in English, but they kept nodding. After 10 minutes, asked again for the bill and the doggy bags, turned out food had been thrown away. Not very happy with that. Since they were students we were more than happy if they ran back and ask the teachers for help, but ah well. A lot of good food went wasted. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Great meal for a great cause - I wholeheartedly recommend you visit this restaurant. There’s a varied and inventive menu to choose from. We shared three dishes between two which was more than enough food as the portions are generous. Our favourite was the chargrilled eggplant with pork and coriander (I would go back just for that!) followed by the vegetarian amok which was also delicious. Service was spot on. We stayed for a cup of tea after our meal and didn’t feel rushed out even though we were the last guests in the restaurant. Prices may seem a little on the high side but, in my opinion, are worth it for the excellent food.

Excellent service from students learning the craft. The food was delicious. Sure it's a little pricey, but think about who you're helping here. Went back for a second visit, same excellent service but the chicken stir fry with spicy basil was a miss. It lacked any heat, was dry and tasteless. I ended up sharing the shrimp-pork and eggplant bites. The spicy cilantro margarita on the other hand was a hit. Go early, before sunset, before the rat comes out, kinda ruined the experience.

This eatery boasts a delightful ambiance, complemented by an exceptionally cordial team. The culinary offerings, notably the zesty tofu, were scrumptious, providing an impressive array of vegan choices.

Additionally, their commitment to the welfare of children and adolescents in the community is commendable and adds to the establishment's appeal.

The restaurant is run by a non profit for helping marginalised kids train and find work. The food and drinks were very good with some innovative recipes.

What a brilliant idea, supporting a much needed cause for local youth! We are so grateful and happy that we searched for vegetarian food and found this restaurant as we were passing through Sihanouk. Knowing that students prepared our food made our experience so unique. The space is cheerfully decorated with students' artwork (not for sale) and many handmade items for sale. We ordered under Veggie Lovers: homemade egg noodles with vegetables (No. 1 on the menu) and crispy tofu and mushroom (No. 2 on the menu) to share and Banana fritters for dessert. All tasty!

This is a great spot to try. It is a restaurant that trains disadvantaged students. The food pleasantly surprises! I tried only a few dishes on my first trip, but everything did NOT disappoint. The sweet potato fries are perfectly cooked -soft on the inside, crispy on the outside, salted well, and has the flavor! So I will miss these wherever I go as it has made a new standard. 🤯 I was recommended the homemade egg noodles with grilled vegetables. Didn’t sound great, but gave it a try. And again, blown away by the flavor and bang for a healthy dish. Basically a healthy Alfredo dish to me. Super! Garlic bread was soft, crispy where it needed to be and flavorful. Another win. Mango sticky rice was done fine (been places where it had NOT been). Mojito good. Coconut shake decent. Service excellent, shout out to Hoeurn the service manager who made sure my meal and experience was pleasant. Unfortunately, not air conditioned and open air seating. But still worth a try! Kudos!

Amazing cafe, great to work from (Wifi speed is high for Cambodia) and most important is truly a great cause. This is a non-profit that helps people with disabilities and is making a huge difference. Not only this but the bread was AMAZING!!

One of the best places for sweets and snacks in Shanoukville, everything is fresh, no GMF and organic, we got the cookie, the brownie and the mediterranean sandwich we loved it!!! Totally recommend

Amazing place, very calm like an oasis in the busy center. The food is delicious as well and you are doing something good by supporting them.

The rice bread and plain yoghurt there are excellent. The pastry products were less amazing. The only chocolate chip cookie, I had there, tasted like it was on the shelf for a few days. It wasn't really fresh. The brownies were better, but not really good. The rest of the food was usually of good quality. The service is friendly and attentive. The time, until food was served, usually was a bit too slow. (I was there several times.)

A nice and shady reprieve from the noise of the city. Breakfast is decent, coffee too. Did not try the pastry but they looked scrumptuous. The shop has some interesting things to buy as souvenirs; tourists may find the prices at the shop a little higher than expected but it goes to a good cause and there are a variety of knock knacks to choose from so you don't have to necessarily fork out so much to contribute.

Vegan restaurant
Dao of Life is a vegan restaurant with an eco-friendly atmosphere. The food is made with fresh local ingredients and the staff are passionate about environmental protection. They hold creative art workshops on the rooftop and offer coffee and light vegetarian meals.
Delicious vegan food, smoothies and cocktails! Tamarind margarita was delicious, as was the burger! Staff are very friendly too! It’s located at the port, but the entrance is at the back of a bar / restaurant on the ground floor, so it’s a little tricky to find the first time!

The food is good and tasty but a bit pricy. You can get some vegan/vegetarian options at other restaurants for cheaper prices. I found the portions to be a bit small and the taste just good enough, nothing amazing. Atmosphere is nice and staff is friendly. The smoothies were definetly my favourite and a must try!!!

Likely the best place to hang out whilst in Sihanouk. The food is amazing - clean, raw and colourful. It’s a little hidden gem hiding upstairs away from the masses. Staff is friendly and WiFi is decent!

Wow! Avacado and spinach on toast with cashew cheese and seeds on top of chunky wholegrain/wholemeal(sorry I can't remember which but it was delicious either way) bread...my favourite meal by far, with banana and cacao shake in this beautiful setting, a really lovely place! To access it you walk through another restaurant and up stairs at the back :)

Refreshing to find a whole fresh foods cafe that makes most items from scratch. Delicious garden bowl and burger. Food for the soul! Price was slightly above average for other restaurants but worth it for the whole ingredients. Closed Mondays. Located upstairs at the pier so great spot to overlook the beach and perhaps catch some fireworks.

This place knows how to present food! It's a great place to have a healthy hearty meal that would make your day. Freshest ingredients and very nice vibe! There is a good wifi if you are looking for a working space. I wish I had such place in my city.

Mediterranean restaurant
Olive & Olive Mediterranean Restaurant offers a great variety of foods from around the Mediterranean region, all with superb customer service. The restaurant has a comfortable and trendy atmosphere, perfect for any meal of the day.
Massive pizza with a free starter. Mango mojito is delicious. Pizzas are priced starting at $5-$8. If you like thin crust then this is the place to go. Would like a bit more pizza sauce and cheese but it's quite delicious without it. Friendly staff and quick service.

Best food I've had in the month I've been in Cambodia. A little pricey, even for this area of the country which is higher than any place else I've been. Meals were $8-$13, but well worth it. Pizza was good, the chicken cordon blue was amazing. Staff was nice. No complaints besides the hummus could have been better, still very good tho.

I've come here on August 11, 2017. People say it's pricey but for me it's worth the price. Their service is great, I get free naan bread each time I ate here. And their pizza is best I've had. It use a wooden oven and their portion is big. I always order a pizza and a big bowl of pasta to eat with my friend. I also order their capuccino which is another great thing in here. Their coffee is bold but less acidity, love it! Will definitely eat at Olive & Olive again if I visit Sihanoukville.

A mediterranean resto that offers good food and nice view of the Two Lion roundabout. It's nice to hang around here esp. at night and watch the locals bond with their families just sitting around one of SHV's known landmark. Khmer people have simple pleasures. Be sure to come early coz the place easily gets crowded. The resto is popular with tourists. It has seating area outside. The owners are accommodating. They offer this thin and delicious $5 pizza which is big enough to share. Aside from this promo, the rest of the foods are pricey. While waiting for your order, you get a complimentary balloon bread with dips which is a plus.

Tried having the same plates that I used to have few years a go when the place was new; and what a huge difference in the quality of meat and the freshness of food... The only thing fresh there is the pizza, u won't be disappointed with pizza.

Very good service, huge pizza - good for two. The fish was fine, just down a start because the mash potatoes was like clue. Got some naan like bread for free as a starter. I would recommend the place!

Place Is nicely located directly at the roundabout, furniture and table cloth have seen better days but the food is excellent, i loved their tender beef with eggplant. Well worth a visit.

I got the margherita pizza for $5 USD. It was delicious and absolutely huge! Had half the pizza left over to snack on during my night bus to Battembang. It also came with complimentary pita bread with yogurt dipping sauce, spicy dipping sauce, and a few olives.

This Sihanoukville Burger joint is one of the most popular in the city, with delicious burgers and other international-inspired dishes. It can be a little hard to find a parking spot, but it's well worth it for the great food. The toilets are also very clean.
Great breakfast and coffees. Also came back for burger and was also very good

It was good in general, friendly and accommodating staff. The price is the same as its branch in Phnom Penh.

The vanilla milkshake is incredible, the only minus is the vegetarian burger. The vegetarian stuffing had big chunks of red, green and yellow pepper inside which weren’t that nice to eat and made the whole burger very underwhelming. However, I did try my partner’s cheeseburger and it was so delicious! A no go for the veggie one but I’d definitely come back for the cheeseburger.

This place is absolutely amazing, the atmosphere, service and especially the food is amazing, this is the best place to go if you want to eat some classic western or American style foods, this is a place to go if you're feeling like you need to treat yourself after a hard week or day, I've been here countless times with my family and friends and have ordered from this place other countless times, definitely worth a visit no doubt about it. A little side note, they have Dr pepper in the fridge which some people might love.

Was looking for some decent Western food while in SV. If I'm being honest, I didn't have high hopes when I placed my order, but I was really pleasantly surprised. Staff was super kind, food was great, and everything was ready within 15 minutes. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, rib sandwich, chicken quesadilla, fries, and spicy chicken bites. Everything was fresh and cooked to order.

No one spoke English, but we managed talking trough pictures. The veg burger isn’t good. Unfortunately I read the advertisement too late, which says that you don’t have to pay, if you don’t like it after 2 bites

Great cheeseburger with affordable price in the heart of Sihanoukville! The chicken nuggets suprisingly good. A little bit hard to found a parking spot. But it's acceptable since it's located in the center of the Sihanoukville. They offer various of soft drinks for the beverages options. The toilets are clean too!

I've been there before, and went to have dinner again with family and friends. A bit pricy (I won't mind it as long as I enjoy the food), but I did not enjoy at all. chicken wrap (can't remember exact name on menu) almost no chicken inside:). French fries was good. AC not working or not enough, was hot... overall average place (for me).

Best burgers in Cambodia. I came here with some guys from work and the food was excellent. Mike is a Cambodian National treasure and this should be on your list of places to visit while here.

Do yourself a favor and stumble into this place at the end of your night. No idea what time they open or close, but they're definitely open during prime stumbling hours. Very tasty drunk food. They even have Huy Fong Sriracha sauce at your disposal. Staff are also very friendly and understanding of any speech impediments you may or may not have.
