Beach House Cambodia is a small, handcrafted wooden guesthouse on the beachfront in M'Pai Bay, Koh Rong Samloem. With only a few rooms, it offers an intimate, residential feel rather than a corporate hotel experience. The property sits directly on the water, a one-minute walk from M'Pai Pier, with rooms featuring unique hinged walls that open fully to the sea.
Rooms are cozy and include air conditioning and hot-water showers—relatively uncommon amenities on this side of the island. The guesthouse serves breakfast with locally praised coffee, plus a full menu throughout the day. It suits travellers seeking a quiet, relaxed beachfront stay with a social atmosphere and attentive staff.

The area
Beach House Cambodia is located in M'Pai Bay on Koh Rong Samloem, a fishing-village-turned-backpacker-hub. The settlement is compact with most amenities within walking distance. The bay features sandpools that appear at low tide, and nearby options like Dragonfly bar are a short walk up the hill.
Beach House Cambodia (Koh Rong Sanloem)
Location: M’Pai Bay
Vibe: Quirky, eco-conscious, and social.
Price Range: $40 – $100+ (depending on the season and room type)
The Experience
Located right on the water in the fishing-village-turned-backpacker-hub of M’Pai Bay, this isn't your standard corporate hotel. It is a handcrafted wooden house with only a few rooms, giving it an intimate, "staying with friends" feel.
The Highlights
The Design: The rooms feature unique hinged walls that open entirely to the sea, allowing you to sleep with the sound of the waves and a direct breeze.
Community Spirit: The British-owned property is deeply involved in the local community and eco-efforts (like beach cleans).
Perks: Guests often get free use of kayaks, paddleboards, and snorkel gear. It’s one of the few places in M’Pai Bay offering hot showers and reliable AC.
The Drawbacks
Rustic Infrastructure: You are on a remote island. Power outages and "erratic plumbing" are occasional realities regardless of how much you pay.
The Price Tag: Some travelers feel it is overpriced compared to basic bungalows nearby, though you are paying for the prime beachfront real estate and better amenities.
2. The Beach House Hotel (Kep)
Location: Directly opposite Kep Beach
Vibe: Nostalgic, peaceful, and family-friendly.
If you are actually looking for the Kep location, the experience is quite different:
The Good: Incredible sunset views from private balconies and a saltwater pool that is a lifesa
Had an amazing stay at the beach house. Couldn’t ask for more helpful staff, so friendly and welcoming! Room was gorgeous with plenty of space and private balcony seating areas. Also one of the few properties that has air con and showers with hot water. Located right on the beach near the pier. Would definitely recommend for your stay on Mpai bay!
This place is a rare gem!
Just a one-minute walk from M’Pai Pier, the guesthouse sits right on the beachfront. The rooms are cozy and some come with AC — something that isn’t very common on this side of the island.
The breakfast coffee is probably the best you’ll find anywhere on the island, and the rest of the menu has everything you could ask for.
While the guesthouse itself is wonderful, it’s the staff who truly make it special.
James and his team turned an already lovely stay into something unforgettable. It felt like staying with family.
We came here for our honeymoon and loved it! Waking up right on the beach in the lap of bohemian luxury. Bay 23 as settlement is cosy, everything is in walking distance and there is so much beauty to experience: Watching the moon rise from the ocean, walking in the sandpools (low tide recedes quite far here). We played football with the locals. Theres a 'family dinner' most evenings hosted by the team who join everyone and we always meet some lf the most interesting people. Theres loads of fun things to eat and drink, Dragonfly is great for the sunset just a walk 100 yards up the hill. Breakfast is great at Beach house, another excellent spot is Seapony for brunch. I always base us from here because its run maturely and yeah. You're right on the beach, and at the end of the beach. We came back every night and it was well quiet by midnight, if not earlier.
We, a family of four, had a wonderful one week stay at the Beachhouse! Such a friendly and relaxing vibe, we felt very welcomed and the Beach Bungalow was pefect for our family. Waking up while hearing the waves rolling in... I could certainly get used to that. Food and drinks were also very, very good!
If you are looking for a quiet, relaxed front-row beach getaway, search no longer. You have found it!
Thank you guys for a wonderful stay. All the best for you and we hope to be back one day. Much love ❤️
