The Royal Sands Koh Rong

We had a fantastic stay at Royal Sands Koh Rong, recommended by a friend who had been here two years ago – and we couldn’t have made a better choice! It was the perfect place to relax after 10 intense days travelling through Vietnam and Cambodia. Although we had two days of heavy rain, the weather quickly improved and we were able to fully enjoy the beauty of this island. The beach is simply stunning: fine white sand, turquoise-blue sea, and an atmosphere of absolute peace. The service was impeccable from start to finish. All the staff were attentive, helpful, and always available, creating a truly memorable experience. Our thanks to receptionist Sreypa and Director Mario – through them, we would like to thank the entire team for their dedication and professionalism throughout our stay. The facilities are modern, comfortable, and very well maintained, with everything needed for a luxury experience. From the spacious and well-equipped rooms to the restaurants and leisure areas, everything exceeded our expectations. In short, Royal Sands Koh Rong is the ideal destination for anyone seeking relaxation, natural beauty, and excellent service. Without a doubt, a place to return to!

Amazing place !! A wonderful stayed at The Royal Sands. The room spacious, the food is super varied and very good, the service, the perfect beach, the offering spa, in the afternoon you can enjoy happy hour and the most spectacular sunset in the world. We cannot recommend this resort enough and we’ll be back for sure!

My second visit to the property. What a fantastic experience. Wonderful staff, amazing location, super room. Food is unbelievable. Plenty of things to do around the area. Highly recommend, even though it was low season, it was memorable. GM Mario, you run a wonderful ship. Well done everybody.

We had the most amazing time at Royal Sands. Cela, who met us at the entrance was a wonderful ambassador for the hotel. He was charming, helpful and remembered all our names. All the team at the hotel were amazing, so friendly, kind and helpful. They all completely made our trip. We stayed in a bungalow, without a pool, with a view of the sea and it was utterly beautiful. The whole place is paradise and we will definitely be back. Thank you to you all at The Royal Sands.

The safety of hotel guests is poor. On August 11, 2025, we were relaxing on beach chairs in front of our Beachfront Villa, no. 211. Many tourists were swimming that day, the waves were moderate and heading toward the shore, and a yellow flag was raised on the beach. At around 1 p.m., we pulled a drowned girl out of the water who had been vacationing at the hotel with her family. Half an hour earlier, my wife and I saw this girl on the beach jogging with her husband. Her husband and one of her family friends, who were on the beach, quickly ran to her body and immediately began to administer first aid. The hotel staff misled everyone by saying that a doctor would arrive soon. After about half an hour, the doctor still hadn't arrived, and the hotel staff were now saying something completely different: that the doctor would have to be brought in from Sihanoukville and that it would be quicker to take the injured woman by boat than to wait for the doctor at the Royal Sands hotel beach. The girl's body was placed on a stretcher and carried away from the beach. She was in very bad condition. A lot of time had been lost, and I don't think she could have survived.||As this case shows, The Royal Sands Koh Rong is completely unable to provide assistance to a drowned person for the following reasons: (i) no lifeguard on the beach, (ii) no doctor, (iii) no defibrillator to restart the heart, (iv) confusion among hotel staff and contradictory information provided by staff, (v) the hotel's remoteness from Sihanoukville (the boat trip takes about an hour). All this means that in the event of drowning, the drowning victim will not be rescued in time.

Wow, what a beautiful place. Get there by boat 45 minutes. You are met by staff and get into a truck to ride to the resort. Next you are taken on a buggy to check in, then shown to your villa.We stayed at217, sea view, beachfront. The room is large and airy. Outdoor and indoor shower. Huge bathroom. Mini bar with complimentary water and home made cookies. The food in the hotel is really good. The pastries divine.(especially the Portuguese custard tarts) Sitting out at the beach bar at sunset is beautiful. The beach is breathtakingly beautiful. Pure white sand and turquoise crystal clear sea. Plenty of sun loungers, hammocks beach towels provided in your room.The spa was amazing, with a glass floor over the koi pond. The staff were all lovely, smiling and friendly. This place is absolutely amazing. It's a great finish for your holiday, if you have done some heavy sightseeing. I hope I will visit again one day. ♥️

My husband and I had THE most wonderful 7 night stay the last week of May! The Royal Sands is so beautiful in every way! The gorgeous staff are so attentive, each and every one of them! You cannot fault this resort, it is beautifully appointed. We had a beachfront pool which was so AMAZING!! The weather this time of year was incredible for us visiting from New Zealand. The unbelievable breakfast experience, honestly! The most healing Spa experience I have ever experienced! They are healers guided by the INCREDIBLE Lucky!! Honestly, we would travel back to Cambodia just to stay at this wonderful resort again, it is just divine🇰🇭☀️🏝️

We didn't know what to expect when we booked but what we found was well above our expectations. Mario and his team have created a magical experience from the moment you step into the resort. John provided a beautiful welcome. Sela was an excellent guide and nothing was too much trouble. Our beachfront villa was huge, very clean and a magic getaway. Love the 2 showers - both indoor and outdoor. The food was plentiful and delicious. We felt like we had our own paradise for the weekend. Panthera was the best bar manager at the Bonfire Lounge, and Pisely's smile and attention in the restaurant were always beautiful.|We really struggled to leave and would return in a heartbeat.
