Need Room in Sihanoukville- 8 months min.
Hi LaudJohn, Your quiet studio sounds quite nice!LaudJohn wrote:I can let you have a nice quiet studio with A/c, wall fan, cooking facilities, moto parking, locked gate, close to convenience store, refrigerator, 50 inch TV,,, 10 MB fiber optic internet. Plus electricity at just 1100 per kwh. For just $290 per month for an 8 month contract. If you want a good serviced moto included that is just $75 pm extra.
If you want double space, a 1 bedroom place it is only $550 per month.
- What part of Sihanoukville is it located in?
- How much deposit are you asking?
Thanks for posting!
Hi Baconroll, Thanks much for your advice, and your time for posting!Baconroll wrote:Prices have gone crazy down here I seen refurbished $100 dollar rooms advertised for $250 the other day, new paint can not alone justify that increase, landlords are being super greedy except the ones already burned by the Chinese who now wont rent to them due to the damage to property. I know of some Khmers who were initially given rooms by Casinos they worked for then moved to rooms further away then further away and had to pay for them plus transport so much so they gave up their jobs and moved to Phnom Penh where although they will earn less they can still afford to rent a room that suits them. That's awful.
Anyway if the op goes up to the main market and passes it then takes a right where the sometimes working lights are head down that road and in time you should find somewhere reasonably priced off one of the side roads that will meet your needs. Good Luck your going to need it and try avoid paying over $200 for a studio..You just missed a decent 2 bedroom apartment out on the above road with lounge, kitchen, 2 toilets and balcony for $250......
If the market rate for those rooms is now $250 due to Chinese demand and limited supply, I would suggest that landlords are not being super greedy by asking for $250.[/quote]
the market rate... a lot of those rooms were rented by Khmers who can now longer afford them and now have to either live an hour away just to keep their jobs here even at higher wages the increase in rent/travel costs has made it unsustainable for a lot of them and some have moved to other parts of the country - their country - to live and work.
A little room is still a little room fresh paint or not.
It's understandable some Cambodian landlords are taking advantage of this, but I know a few who will only rent single rooms to Chinese not the whole building and are NOT increasing the rent to long term tenants by more than a $1 a day for long term good tenants.
The Chinese by the way tend, for those of you not down by the sea, tend to want to rent whole buildings, stick 4-6 bunk beds in each room, put up a solid gate out front and bar the land lord or anyone else from poking their nose in...[/quote]
Hmm... From what I’ve heard and read, it seems the Chinese are moving into Sihanoukville, buying property and profiting from it.
The building I had the $200/month was sold to Chinese people, that’s why I had to go, AKA, got kicked out.

Thanks All
For your replies. I wish there were a few more, “I have a place for you,” but I read everyone’s post and the issues discussed- most interesting.

LaudJohn, what is the supply cost of electricity to you?LaudJohn wrote:I can let you have a nice quiet studio Plus electricity at just 1100 per kwh.
I've read that resale of EDC electricity is not allowed.
Trump is a genius!
