Robinson Bungalows

Indeed the descent towards sunset beach is sporty but very well marked by ropes along the path. This little paradise is worth it, it takes time to reach it, to see the turquoise sea between the trees. As soon as we arrive, we feel good, immediately good. This place is enveloping in softness, surrounded by the jungle and directly overlooking a postcard beach, at the end of the world. The bungalows are directly on the beach. Made of wood and bamboo, air circulates there, we breathe, we fall asleep lulled by the waves. The terrace overlooks the beach, we spend hours reading there, looking at the mesmerizing color of the water. The place is very silent, it invites calm, you can hear the birds and the waves crashing on the beach. The bed is huge and comfortable. It doesn't get hot, even during the hot hours of the day. The restaurant serves quality Khmer cuisine, with a wide variety of dishes. Taste the pierrade surrounded by soup, the fish amok, the curries, everything is good, fresh, fragrant, delicate. We hear the cooks laughing, we feel the healthy atmosphere that reigns there. The establishment is very well maintained, not a grain of sand on the restaurant deck. At sunset, the name of the beach takes on its meaning, the beach bar is lit with fairy lights and cocktails color the coffee tables. At daybreak, there is a lovely yoga class held in the shala directly on the beach right next to the property. The wind and the rolling waves in the background. When the sun rises, we put on a mask and snorkel, the best snorkeling spot is right opposite. There are many activities to do, around twenty climbing routes, hiking through the paths in the jungle to the lazy beach, going out in a kayak to see the phosphorescent plankton, getting a massage on the beach, going for a paddle ride... or read on your hammock at the beach, rest from morning to evening, let the hours pass by. It’s a beautiful place, a very beautiful place, one of its secret places, where you recharge your batteries after a long journey, you feel good, disconnected, simply good. A nugget. We realize how lucky we are to stay there and we absolutely don't want to leave.

Not easy to access... this place is worth it, but definitely worth the detour. Even during the rainy season! The wind is blowing. The waves prevent boat access and snorkling... but the place is beautiful, the sunsets are to die for. The bungalows are Spartan, it’s part of the adventure. We eat very well there while listening to Cambodian rock from the 60s.

For me, 2 nights on Sunset Beach were completely sufficient, there you have the real "jungle feeling", away from parties and chaos. Unfortunately I was unlucky with the weather, there was rain and the wind was strong so there was no sunset and unfortunately snorkeling wasn't possible either. Otherwise the way there is quite difficult, it's best to take as little luggage as possible (you definitely can't drag a suitcase there). Unfortunately there was a construction site next to my bungalow (new bungalows are being built) so there was only noise from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Unfortunately, I couldn't relax here. The bungalows are basic and have a lot of open spaces, so you can expect a lot of insects in the room. Of all 4 resorts on Sunset Beach, Robinson is already the best. For snorkeling I would rather recommend Lazy Beach, there is coral and colorful fish and the way there is much easier.
