Dary's Village Guesthouse & Restaurant sits directly on the Mekong in Rokakandal village, 2km from Kratie town centre. Dary Saing, who was born in the village, built the guesthouse in 2023-2024 on a plot bought from her grandmother and opened in August 2024. Everything made from wood — the furniture and the doors — was custom-built by carpenter shops in Rokakandal.
Rooms suit single travellers, couples and families. All have big beds, generous bathrooms and air conditioning. There is a restaurant on site, and the surrounding village lives mainly from fishing and agriculture, so guests see traditional Khmer village life at close range from a modern room.
Dary brings 24 years of hospitality experience: she started at the Santepheap Hotel in Kratie town in 2001, then ran the Lazy Mekong Daze restaurant on the riverside in Kampong Cham for more than ten years before returning home in 2023....

The guesthouse is on Preah Soramorith Quay in Rokakandal village, Kratié 100307, on the bank of the Mekong. Neighbours make their living mainly from fishing and agriculture, and there is a village market beside the property. Kratie town centre is 2km away, reachable on a guesthouse bicycle or moto, by tuk-tuk, or on foot along the river.
គួរដឹង
To book, send the guesthouse the room or rooms you are interested in along with your dates, and they will reply. The guesthouse can call a tuk-tuk for you and lends bicycles and motos for the ride into Kratie town. Khmer dishes cooked by Dary's mother can be pre-ordered.
I had a pleasant stay at Dary’s Guesthouse. It was clean and comfortable. Dary was delightful - happy to share stories and information about her community. The guesthouse is a couple of kms out of the the main town, which is already a harder place to get transport compared to bigger cities in Cambodia, however, Dary was more than happy to arrange tuktuks to and from the accommodation. While the guesthouse is out of the main town of Kratie, the surrounding community is friendly and it’s an easy enough walk into town along the Mekong. Definitely recommend.
We had the best time staying at Dary’s Guesthouse!
The rooms are clean and spacious with good AC and hot water. Very comfortable.
Dary makes amazing pizza and her mother cooks delicious Khmer food!
Dary is a very hospitable host and is happy to help arranging trips, tuktuks and anything you may need. It was very interesting speaking to Dary about her experience growing up in Kratie and how the town has changed over the years.
I would reccomend staying at Dary’s to anyone and hope to visit again in the future!
Dary and her family are very friendly and welcoming, and checked us into a very clean and modern room for a night, that even smelled fresh and lovely. We also had lunch there and her mother cooks amazing food, the whole experience was just lovely! She can also help with organising any trips or things you’d like to do whilst visiting Kratié. Definitely would recommend staying here
Dary is a gem! She is a huge contributor to her community while ensuring her guests are well cared for during their visit. She will help you arrange anything you need without hesitation. Rooms are very clean and spacious. We just enjoyed hanging out down in the lobby and learning about the area.
We originally stayed in Kratie town and moved to Dary's because we wanted a more calm and authentic experience, especially with the village market next to it. We couldn't have been more happy with our decision as not only are her rooms gigantic and the shower pressure fantastic, but she is also such a warm-hearted and open person that it always willing to share her knowledge of Khmer life with you. As it is important for her to support the community, she has great contacts for tours operated by locals which we enjoyed very much. And her mother's cooking is phenomenal - pre-order the Khmer Curry and stuffed gourd! We loved our stay (3 nights) and would have liked to stay longer.
