Knai Bang Chatt Resort in Kep

We recently enjoyed a peaceful and refreshing 2-night stay at Knai Bang Chatt. Everything was exceptional—from the clean, cozy rooms and warm hospitality to the restaurant serving beautifully prepared local and Western dishes full of flavor. What makes the resort truly special is its serene view of the lush green lawn and the stunning panorama of Kep West and the sea. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout our stay—we couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a relaxing and memorable getaway. We’ll definitely be back!

Excellent fine dining with superb dishes and a beautiful outside terrace. The friendly staff made us feel truly welcome – special thanks to MP for exceptional hospitality. A memorable evening we can’t wait to repeat!

We rented out 11 rooms at Knai Bang Chatt for a work retreat and it was absolutely perfect. ||The staff members are so kind and welcoming. It truly felt like home! MP was so thoughtful and took such good care of us. The meeting room was perfect for our needs, and the staff was really accommodating (eg special lunch requests, seating arrangements). ||The food was also AMAZING. The chef personalized the dishes to include our company logo (without us even asking). This kindness and generosity is truly the spirit of Knai Bang Chatt!! ||The rooms were also beautiful and incredibly clean. Each night, someone came to make the mosquito net (even though I didn’t even get any mosquito bites!!) ||The pool is also so relaxing and serene. Honestly, no notes!! Everything was perfect. And there is a great little town with a market and restaurants a 5 minute walk away if you want to get of the property. ||If you are considering going to Knai Bang Chatt…go!!!!!

This is not an Aman or Banyan Tree resort, but nor is the pricing. It’s still a great place for a relaxing getaway, and the perfect choice for an organisation’s retreat. Comfortable, spacious rooms with aircon. Good space and communication facilities for conferences. Great swimming pool with salt water. The beach is a tuktuk ride away, and not nice anyway. Food ain’t the best but is pretty good and served in generous portions. The best thing about Knai Bang Chatt is the service staff - courteous, nice, efficient - if the facilities are 4 star -, service is 5 star +.

A fantastic stay, we were there as part of our company retreat and the hospitality was superb. The setting and rooms are beautiful, with good amenities, with a outlook over the beach. The gardens are beautiful. A serene pool tops it off. There is a great choice at breakfast with good coffee. The team arranged a beachside dinner for us with BBQ near The Wave, that was a highlight as the sunset over Bokor mountain. Thanks again, ill be back.

I visited Knai Bang Chatt in early July and was absolutely blown away. I had read great reviews and was already excited, but this was my first time in Kep, and the experience far exceeded all expectations.||Chef Chuon Sokheng has done a phenomenal job. Every meal was memorable. Breakfast includes a small but exquisite buffet (incredible pastries and fresh fruits) and you can also order from the à la carte menu. We enjoyed huge bowls of fresh mussels and incredibly tender lamb. All the restaurants within Kep West fall under Chef Sokheng’s management, and it shows - consistently high standards across the board. Crab & Co. is fantastic for a premium, waterfront dining experience, while The Strand offers equally excellent food in a more relaxed setting.||We took part in several excursions, including the Marine Conservation Cambodia (MCC) tour, Discover Kep, and a visit to a Kampot pepper farm. Knai Bang Chatt’s partnership with MCC provides guests with a rare opportunity to explore the island through the hotel’s activities team. The MCC team is doing incredible work preserving Cambodia’s marine ecosystems. Our guide, Rebecca, was exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate, giving us a behind-the-scenes look at their conservation efforts.||After the tour, the Knai Bang Chatt team had arranged a beachside lunch—white tablecloths, crisp white wine, freshly barbecued seafood—all set up seamlessly, without us even noticing. Throughout all the activities, they had ice buckets full of cold drinks (beer, water, soft drinks) and constantly checked to ensure we were comfortable. Special mention to Kim, who shared amazing insights about the region’s history, local fishing communities, and her own family story. Her warmth and knowledge added so much depth to our trip.||The atmosphere at Knai Bang Chatt is genuinely special. You can feel it in the air. The staff clearly love working there - you can see it in their beaming smiles and thoughtful touches. Many told us directly, but it was also evident in how they carried themselves.||I joined a yoga and sound bath session with Lana, and it was probably one of the best yoga classes I’ve ever done. Lana has a beautiful energy and is calm, welcoming, and inspiring. I also had a facial treatment at the spa, using all fresh, natural ingredients. The spa area itself is tranquil and beautifully designed.||The hotel’s design honors its heritage with rebuilt historical homes, locally sourced art and furniture, and a strong sense of place. The result is absolutely stunning.||I can’t speak highly enough of Knai Bang Chatt. ||When the new airport opens in September, it’ll be less than two hours from Phnom Penh to Kep! Strongly recommend.

I’ve visited multiple times and I always love my stay. Food, staff, location, rooms and grounds are just the best.|Not a 5 minute walk from the crab market. |Lovely bathroom products and creams. |Antique furniture and decorations are perfect for the venue.
