In-Depth Review
Rooms and decor
Otres Villas is the mid-range choice in the Otres Beach area, and it earns its 8.8/10 on Agoda by giving you a standalone villa rather than a hotel room. The villas sit in a tropical-modern garden designed to blend Khmer architecture with a minimalist look, and each one is roomy — a large bedroom, a wide bathroom with an open-air shower that opens onto its own small private courtyard, plus a balcony with seating. You get free Wi-Fi, air-con, a safe and a minibar in the villa.
Food and amenities
The thing that sets Otres Villas apart from Tara Lodge and the other beachfront spots nearby is the shared resort pool — most places in Otres have none. It's clean and good-looking, ringed by tropical garden so it feels relaxed. Breakfast is included and decent quality, with Western and Khmer options, fresh smoothies and good coffee. The main restaurant serves Khmer and international food at fair prices, and the staff will help arrange a boat trip out to Koh Rong.
Location and getting there
You're in the Otres Beach area, roughly 7 km from the Sihanoukville town centre and Pub Street. The beach itself is a 3-to-5 minute walk, and you can borrow a beach towel from the front desk on your way down. For food and drinks beyond the hotel, Otres Village has a good spread of restaurants and bars within a 5-to-10 minute walk, so you're not stuck eating in every night.
Things to know before booking
It is not directly on the sand — count on a 3-to-5 minute walk to the beach, which is the price of having the pool. It sits about 7 km from town and Pub Street, so the nightlife and main restaurants need a ride. And it runs pricier than Tara Lodge up the beach while scoring a touch lower, so compare the two before you commit.
Our take
If you want your own space, a pool to come back to and a short stroll to a quiet beach, Otres Villas is a smart pick. Rates start around $69 a night and run up to roughly $186 for the bigger villas — fair for what you get. It's best for couples and larger groups happy to trade a town-centre location for privacy and that uncommon villa-plus-pool combination.

The Honest Verdict — pros & what to know
- You get a private villa and a shared resort pool in the same booking, which is hard to find in Otres — most beachfront places here have no pool at all.
- The tropical-modern design is genuinely photogenic, mixing Khmer architecture with a minimalist look, and each villa has its own balcony with seating.
- Otres Beach is less than a 5-minute walk away, and the resort lends out beach towels so you can head straight down.
- A good-quality complimentary breakfast is included, with both Western and Khmer options, fresh smoothies and decent coffee.
- Service is friendly, and the staff will help arrange a boat trip out to Koh Rong.
- It isn't right on the sand — expect a 3-to-5 minute walk to reach the beach, which is the trade-off for having the pool.
- You're about 7 km from the town centre and Pub Street, so getting to the nightlife and main restaurants means a ride into town.
- It runs pricier than Tara Lodge up the beach yet scores slightly lower (8.8 vs 9.0), so it's worth comparing the two.
