Koh Rong Samloem worth a visit?
Koh Rong Samloem worth a visit?
Has anyone here been to Ko Rong Samloem and is it worth a journey? Was thinking of going on a floating camping trip: and want to know how long it will take to get to from Phnom Penh?
5 hour bus ride to shv, then a fastboat or the party boat to the island

I think Koh Rong Samleom is the only reason Sihanoukville is worth visiting. The last few times we went down, we would spend a night in snooky and go to koh rong samleom in the morning for the rest of the holiday. But everything is relative, imho great place for the area (out what you get to chose from). But it's been a while since we've been there, it might have changed

You might be thinking of Koh Rong. That is drunk backpacker heaven on Tui Beach.

Let's see...you have to take a painfully SLOW boat from Sihanoukville to Koh Rong Samloem...and then you have thoughts of a "floating" camping trip. Not quite sure exactly what that is.
However...Lazy Beach is great!

The island itself it a lot of fun a good reason to leave your cell phone off the entire time you're there. It's pretty much like Gilligans Island and Chris (one of the brit owners) is a great guy. Prices are quite reasonable and the food is outstanding. Highly recommended.

The truth is that the only thing that matters is what I think because in the end you're going to give me all your money anyway.

Are there any brits left on Koh Rong? Last I heard it had been annexed by Russia. You can have a deserted beach with sandflies and no Russians if you go to Koh Kong, and rooms for $7 a night

Things are starting to change down on the coast faster than in Phnom Penh where you now have just recently got a limited bus service.

Hello, can you tell me what is the best resort on KohRong now and if it has internet, electricity and of course water ?
And the only speedboat is the ispeed that I see above ? What if I miss the scheduled departures, can I hire a private boat ?
Thanks for all your feedbacks.
