About Paddy's Bamboo Guesthouse

Paddy's Bamboo Guesthouse is a small guesthouse on Chicken Farm Road in Khemarak Phoumin, the riverside town of Koh Kong in southwestern Cambodia. The property is built in a bamboo, bungalow-style idiom, with plants throughout and a series of informal seating corners set aside for sitting and relaxing. Accommodation is offered at more than one price point, including private rooms and dormitory beds.

Rooms are simply equipped. Beds are reported as comfortable and mosquito nets are provided; bathrooms have cold water only. Lighting is switched off at night from around 21:30, so charging devices overnight is not possible, and the surrounding greenery means insects and mosquitoes are part of the experience. Food can be ordered on site.

The area

The guesthouse is on Chicken Farm Road in Khemarak Phoumin, the main town of Koh Kong province in Cambodia. The Koh Por fishing village, where the guesthouse arranges village stays and a school project, is reachable from here. Jungle trekking routes in the surrounding area are run as multi-day trips from the property.

Good to know

Lights go out at around 21:30, so plan to charge phones and other devices during the day. Bathrooms have cold water only, and mosquito nets are provided in the rooms. Rates vary by room type, with dormitory beds alongside private rooms. Food is available on site, though service can be slow when the guesthouse is quiet.

I really loved the people, atmosphere and decoration. There are nice chill out corners everywhere. However, the room was very noisy. The walls are as thin as cardboard and they managed to put new guests in the room next to us everyday, even though lots of other rooms in the guesthouse were empty. Also the musquito nets need replacement.

Paddy is a very peaceful man and you can learn with him. At night (after 21h30) there is no light and there is a lot of bugs and mosquitos. The place is peaceful and with a lot of plants. The beds are comfortable. Cold water. I moved the second night because I prefer more confortable place, to charge the phone at night and not be worried with the bugs. For the price and category it is OK.

The very best place we stayed in Cambodia on a trip with a group of 18. Paddy and his team were phenomenal. We went on a 4 day trek where we were so well looked after, the food they were able to produce in the middle of the jungle was outstanding! They were able to stop and set up a comfortable camp wherever we were, no job was too much! We also spent 4 days on a project with a school at the Koh Por fishing village, we slept in hammocks in the temple and were looked after equally well, the people in this village couldn't have been more kind and welcoming, one of my group lost her passport and money, this was returned by a local child with all in tact, this really was amazing in a community which has so little, this made us feel safe and welcome! Paddys guesthouse was comfortable, fun, attractively located, cheap and again the food was amazing and such good value- as a stopping point between our activities it felt like a home away from home, Paddy even let us leave our big bags in a locked room in the guesthouse while we went off on our adventures! Paddy is a truly nice person, he has charitable values, speaks perfect English and sorted any issue we had with a resourceful and positive attitude, and when I return to Cambodia next April with my wife I would love to stop by Koh Kong and stay again!

The place has a lot of potential, but it seems like the owners are not giving it a lot of attention lately, maybe because it's off season. It took a while to find somebody to order food and the food itself was average. The room was ok clean. Next time I would skip this town completely.

I was satisfied of hippy style of every piece of this place, from first level to rooms. It's looks like beach boungalou inside, but this mood a pretty realised there. Different price for room, they has dorm also.

Trapeang Rung Restaurant

Restaurants 37.8 km 4.1/5 on Google

Trapeang Rung Restaurant is 37.8 km south-east of Paddy's Bamboo Guesthouse — a short ride rather than a walk. It is the closest place to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The other place under “restaurants” within reach of Paddy's Bamboo Guesthouse is Cambodian - Cham Halal Food Restaurant (38.1 km).

Trapeang Rung Restaurant is a casual dining spot in Koh Kong village serving Cambodian food throughout the day. The restaurant has a spacious layout with ample parking, and visitors describe the location as reasonably clean. The owner operates the place on a friendly basis, and the kitchen moves orders through quickly.

Most visitors praise the food quality and price point, with several noting the portions and flavour represent good value. However, the menu includes bushmeat, which may concern travellers with wildlife conservation interests — though alternative dishes are available. One visitor reported being overcharged and advised checking portion sizes and confirming prices before ordering, particularly for rice and meat dishes, to avoid paying inflated rates.

The restaurant opens daily from 7 AM to 9 PM, making it accessible for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It suits travellers looking for straightforward local food without formality, and those with their own transport will appreciate the parking. Budget-conscious visitors should clarify pricing upfront to ensure transparent dealings.

Cambodian - Cham Halal Food Restaurant

Restaurants 38.1 km 4.0/5 on Google

Cambodian - Cham Halal Food Restaurant is 38.1 km south-east of Paddy's Bamboo Guesthouse — a short ride rather than a walk.

The other place under “restaurants” within reach of Paddy's Bamboo Guesthouse is Trapeang Rung Restaurant (37.8 km).

Cambodian - Cham Halal Food Restaurant sits along the road to Koh Kong near Tatai. It serves pre-cooked Khmer dishes kept in pots throughout the day, with a fixed menu that changes seasonally. The setting is casual roadside dining with basic facilities.

Visitors give mixed reports. Several praise the taste of the food and cleanliness, noting fair prices and attentive service. However, other diners felt unwelcome and reported paying significantly more than they would elsewhere in Cambodia for the same dishes, with one guest citing an inflated water bottle charge. Multiple reviewers mention the pre-cooked nature of the dishes as a drawback, noting that food sits in pots for extended periods before serving. The perception of value varies considerably between visitors.

The restaurant operates daily from 7 AM to 9:30 PM, making it accessible for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It works best as a casual stop if you are traveling between Tatai and Koh Kong and want something quick rather than a destination meal. Check prices before ordering if budget is a concern, as visitors have reported inconsistent pricing. The halal certification will matter to some diners, but not to others passing through.
