The area
The resort sits directly on Long Set Beach in Preah Sihanouk Province, on Koh Rong Samloem island. The beach is noted for its white sand and calm atmosphere. The location is conveniently close to the port for arrival and departure.
Good to know
The resort has a policy regarding outside food: raw meat or uncooked food brought to the resort will incur a charge. Rooms start at $45 per night for accommodation with air conditioning and hot shower. Staff speak English and are willing to accommodate requests and booking adjustments.
It's difficult to say whether it's bad or good since they just reopen again after the pandemic.
But for my time, The service was good. Even though we have to negotiate with the customer service a bit, But everyone was really friendly. However, the room we stayed in was a bit old. Like as the wood frame of the front door is broken up a bit at the bottom. The Bidet head broke and the water was everywhere. Fortunately, the worker was quick and able to replace the bidet within minutes.
Also, There's some rule to know as well:
If you bring raw meat or uncooked food to the resort, They would charge you around 5 dollars to bring them in.
Alcohol is also the same story, But I don't know how much they would charge.
You can't set up a big dinner meal or lunch the the accommodation. You have to brings your meal to the table in front of the restaurant.
All in all, they're not really strict about it, So you can find a way around it easily.
On last thing about their restaurant, the food is a bit expensive. So keep that in mind while you are there.
Pura Vita Resort offers a beautiful white sand beach for staying and chilling. We encountered a problem during check-in: we had ordered two rooms with AC, one for a couple and another for me, my brother, and his friends. However, they informed me that the Agoda system showed we had only ordered two rooms with fans. It was a big problem, but the owner fixed it by changing our rooms to ones with AC (they even installed new AC units in my room! Damn, lol). Despite seeing negative comments here, they handled our situation wonderfully, so this comment is just to encourage them.
I didn't try any food here, but we ordered some drinks. Nothing special, but the female waiter was very cute and friendly. She even spoke my mother tongue, which was a big plus.
The beach is very clean and beautiful. I recommend trying Sunny Turkish Fast Food nearby because the owner is very nice, the vibe is perfect, and, especially, the food is delicious to try.
The beach and service are great, located close to the port which is a plus. However; I believe the facilities could be improved. The key is very difficult to handle, also doesn’t seem strong. The table in my room and floor are full of sands. And the windows in my room couldn’t be locked.
Beach and service are top, but the bungalows are unfortunately in a very bad condition because it seems that it will fall down next moment. But the worst reason to spend time there was the fact, that the neighbours hostel The mad monkey" is a place for young backpackers who had party with loud music and drinking games until midnight. That's why we left after one night.
It was really a pity because the beach was amazing
I stayed in this place 4 years ago and was supposed to stay again but due to delay with visa and then the high winds couldn’t arrive. The staff was the most friendly and understanding. They tried to adjust and allow us to alter booking and when we couldn't make it in the end they even allowed us to cancel without a fee! Which helped in our situation a lot! They speak English, the location and the 4k white sand beach is just stunning if you looking for a proper chill time and enjoy the ocean! We try to come back as soon as we can :)
