Beautiful resort, great food, and it’s delightful to be right on the beach. Unfortunately the room isn’t designed well. The bathroom looks beautiful, but using the tub wasn’t possible due to mosquitoes. Further, the door between the toilet and tub is a glass shower door, so the exterior door and its tall threshold is between the toilet and the bed, so anyone who needs the toilet in the middle of the night has to fumble with the key and chain and risk tripping over the threshold. There is also a pendant light hanging low over the outlet for the hairdryer so that even average height people will bump into it while drying their hair. This is not the experience I expect at this price point, and it should have been easy enough to avoid: screen in the outdoor bathroom, install the exterior door and its tall threshold on the exterior, and raise the pendant light. The staff could also use more training. It was repeatedly pointed out that we were only staying one night. Of course it’s good to confirm this once at check in, but beyond that unsolicited comments on travel plans feel awkward. There was also a situation at breakfast where the staff seated us, then inquired about our room number, then pointed out that they had reserved a different table for us. Again, awkward! If tables are reserved for certain rooms, staff should confirm guests’ room numbers before seating them. If a mistake was made, why make that the guests’ problem? Lots of potential; just needs a few improvements.

Pros - beautiful gardens, lush vegetation, tropical big leaf and tall trees, Instagram perfect - rooms are big, comfortable, silent, outdoor showers have powerful water pressure, and villas are spread far apart. Amazing. - no mosquitos (sealed doors before dinners, net over the bed) - outstanding staff, attentive, friendly, good English, good recommendations. Kudos to the GM Jonathan, also super friendly and present, a well run establishment! - massive swimming pool, smartly designed, deep where needed and shallow in places, ideal for lazying in it on hot days - restaurant has good selection of food, specials and healthy options, great service staff Cons - beach. Tiny, dirty (plastics from the sea) and murky dark waters. Not usable at ALL. - else, I'm struggling to find any other negatives! Date of stay: April 2025, Villa D3 There's no good or bad villa - all the same. Get a motorbike and go to Kep, crab market, La Plantation pepper farm - go hiking.

This was a once in a lifetime stay. The property is immaculate - spacious, but very few rooms, so it feels like you're all alone in paradise. Best of all, however, is the staff. Top notch service from start to finish. Highly, highly recommended. We very much look forward to returning.

I’m feel safe to stay there even during covid 19 outbreak.

Beautiful and relaxing place, with terrific food and a really nice pool. Bungalows are spacious and lovely. Friendly and helpful staff as well.

A great property with a fantastic and friendly staff. This is clearly one of the best property in the area.

Fantastic 4 night stay at this lovely well run, friendly and super stylish beachside hotel. Would definitely recommend.

The resort was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Fantastic location for a hotel which provides an intimate setting. Pool was like a bath and the gardens were immaculate. Beach however was a very loose description of the location and the bathroom facilities are not quite as nice as depicted on the website. Staff were very helpful and nothing was too difficult.

Absolutely beautiful hotel and grounds,in a peaceful setting with views of the sea. Lovely staff very helpful, delicious food.

Really enjoyed the time spent at Samanea Beach Resort. The staff is incredibly friendly. Quite close to the crab market (7 min by tuktuk or 25 min walking).

Very nice rooms which are small separate bungalows. Nice place to relax and chill out, there is a nice pool and a small beach, however the sea is not so clean in this area. Lovely grounds, service was ok. Restaurant there is not great, very average and for Cambodia not great value for money. But the rooms are really great! (wifi didn't work most of the stay) There is nothing interesting close by.

We stayed here just one night. The room was spacious and clean but nothing extraordinary. The gardens were well manicured. Staff was very attentive. The WiFi was very slow, breakfast was mediocre, and the "beach" is actually a patch of mangrove that was cleared away to make space for a sandy platform on concrete pylons.

Absolutely thrilled with our experience, so much we decided to get married at Samanea. The resort is lovely, the staff are well trained, courteous and go above and beyond. The accommodations are absolutely divine. The outdoor shower was a really unique experience. Everything was just perfect!

Went there to just relax and read. It was a perfect place for that activity. Quiet and Peaceful. The staff was not overbearing, but offered suggestions as to what we might want to do.

Great. room refreshing could be better

We adored our stay because it is so beautiful and peaceful. The gardens are well kept, the bungalows far apart and the pool is large and very clean. There is a small private beach and we had a dinner table set for us there, next to the sea and glorious sea sunsets. It was like a dream! The sea is a bit shallow for swimming even with the 200 metre pier but we walked out and had a swim in waist deep water, like a warm bath. Lovely! Thé staff went out of their way To help make our stay special and the chef offered to cook something different for our dinner. Breakfast was great with a wide choice and we enjoyed our 4 meals. Our only criticism is that the lunch/dinner prices seemed a little expensive so we ate out twice. A great place to get away from the noise and crowds - we will return! Thank you everyone.

すべてにおいて満足できました！ 特にレストランの食事のクォリティの高さに驚きました♪ブレックスファーストもFree Flowで素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。

Very nice and relax resort

깹 지역에서 이정도의 우수한 시설의 리조트는 찾기힘들것입니다. 날씨 때문에 숙소에 있는 시간이 많았는데 만족합니다
