Otres Beach, Sihanoukville: Practical Visit Guide
Contents
MPSEZ's Preah Sihanouk tourism overview names Otres and Sokha as the province's pristine beaches and sets them against Ochheuteal Beach, which it describes as famed for beach bars, nightlife and year-round tourist flow.[1] Sihanoukville lies in the southwest corner of Cambodia, 232 km from Phnom Penh via National Highway 4.[2] As one example of a property-specific address, Otres Beach Hotel lists Otres 2, Marina Road, Sihanoukville.[3] That is the property's address, not a universal beach entrance.
Plan around an exact place
For a beach stop, choose the access point you intend to use and confirm the final ride and return plan before setting out. A hotel address and a beach access point are not automatically the same destination. If you plan to stay, compare the exact property location with what you want to do and confirm date-specific facilities, booking terms and cancellation conditions directly with the property.

GetYourGuide partner offers. GoAsia may earn a commission if you book through these offers. Check whether tickets or transfers are included, and follow the attraction's official booking and admission rules.
Keep an island trip separate
If you also plan an island visit, check the date, route, departure pier and return sailing with a ferry operator. The hotel's location page puts the property around 8.2 km from Serendipity Beach Pier and 7.8 km from Giant Ibis Transport's Sihanoukville stop.[3] Arrange the ground transfer to the confirmed pier separately and leave time for that leg.
Before you go: Confirm the specific entrance, beach and water conditions and the return ride for your date with your accommodation or another current local source. For broader planning, see our Cambodia travel guide.
