Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Nice hotel located in a village street where you are immerged in the local life. There is a local market every morning. Lots of children come in the hotel because Dary takes care of them as much as she can. She does a lot for her community so don't hesitate to come support her very nice hotel. The hotel is very recent so the rooms are in a very good state. Standard individual rooms are not very big but they're sufficiently spacious for one person only. AC is very efficient. The food cooked by Dary's mother is excellent and Dary's pizza are the BEST (contrary to the italian restaurant in front of VET bus stop which is no good). Breakfast is good. You can rent a bicycle to visit the area and ask Dary to arrange for a boat trip to see the dolphins (15 USD for the tuk tuk and 10 USD for the 1 hour boat)
Nous avons adoré la gentillesse des propriétaires. Ils sont à l'écoute et nous ont aidé pour les activités. La chambre familiale était parfaite pour nous! La guest house est situé dans une petite rue typique du Cambodge.
We loved EVERYTHING and FELT AT HOME❣️ Even better…😘 Everybody should come to Dary‘s and Rokakandal once in their lifetime!☀️ And you should love children🥳 Please bring clothes for children from 2-10(German sizes 86- 140),blank notebooks(din a 4)and pens and soft pencils of all kinds❣️ Recommend: IKEA Buntstifte!!!!! (soft drawing pencils) Please come soon 🙋🏽♀️🪷🙏🏽🇰🇭
That we had to leave and say good-bye to everybody 😢…
Het ligt enigszins buiten het centrum midden in de wijk waar eigenaresse Dary is opgegroeid. Het pand is door haar man (Engels architect) ontworpen en in 2024 gebouwd. Wij zaten in een appartement op de bovenste verdieping en hadden een fenomenaal uitzicht over de Mekong rivier en konden tevens op het grote balkon genieten van de hussle & bussle van de lokale bewoners. Erg leuk. Dary was zeer behulpzaam bij het regelen van van alles en nog wat en vertelde over haar leven. Tevens regelde ze een leuke gids met tuktuk voor ons om een toer door de omgeving te doen en ons te brengen naar de dolfijnen, wat veel leuker was dan wij hadden verwacht.
Indien je uit eten gaat heb je altijd een tuktuk nodig om naar het centrum te gaan. Wegens heftige regen reden tuktuks niet en moesten wij 's avonds door en doornat teruglopen. Het ontbijt is oke, maar wel eenvoudig.
L'établissement est très bien entretenu et très propre. Si vous passez à Kratie, c'est ici qu'il faut faire une pose et si vous réservez à l'avance, demander la chambre 8, exceptionnelle avec une vue sur le Mékong et idéal pour faire de très belles photos de coucher de soleil. La cuisine est très bonne et abordable au niveau tarif. Mais avant tout celà c'est Daryl qui est exceptionnelle, une très belle personne, dans tous les termes. Avec vous elle sera toujours disponible et attentionnée. Elle fait beaucoup aussi pour le quartier où elle a son établissement, c'est un plaisir de voir beaucoup de jeunes enfants du quartier qui ont la joie de vivre et des éclats de rire qui ne nous laissent pas indifférents. En effet,Daryl s'occupe beaucoup de ces petits enfants défavorisés, en leur donnant à manger et même le coucher et leurs donner les bases une éducation que les parents ne peuvent pas toujours leurs donner. Elle est formidable et c'est pourquoi je dis que c'est une Grande Dame. Merci à toi Daryl,j'ai toujours autant de plaisir à passer un peu de temps chez toi. Ne change pas, tu es formidable.

What a fantastic stay! Dary has so much to share and is the most welcoming hostess you can imagine. The location is amazing—right next to the market and the Mekong River—and you really get to experience “life as it is.” You have no choice… Dary and her children will steal your heart.

Great location , the host and family very nice , food was great
All good
Very large room with multiple beds to accommodate our family of four, location outside center of town but puts you in a local part that feels authentic, very clean, good food, owner was able to help secure drivers for our activities and next location
Beautiful guesthouse in a lovely village and perfect host.

Great little homestay in the village outside Kratie. Clean and comfortable
Nothing
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Un très bon accueil, chambre propre, nous nous sommes sentis à la maison ! Merci beaucoup, on espère revenir un jour.
Dary è gentilissima! Parlare con lei mi ha aiutato a capire tante cose della Cambogia. È stato facile rivolgersi a lei per qualsiasi esigenza. La stanza era bella, pulita e con aria condizionata.
Nulla! :) La guesthouse affaccia su una via sterrata ma nessun problema a percorrerla sia in tuk tuk che in bici
Simple and super clean, close to a local market and 1km from the heart of kratie
Merci à Dary pour son accueil, sa gentillesse. Les chambres et l’hôtel sont très propres et bien équipés. Le restaurant est très bon et à un prix raisonnable. L’ambiance de ce petit village est agréable. L’hôtel est légèrement excentré mais reste tout proche à pied des 1er restaurant.
The location right by the river in a residential neighborhood was nice- great sunset view from the triple room. The owner Dary is friendly and welcoming. Had a lot of information about tourist activities. Her pizzas are fantastic! A nice change from typical menu.Ice cold beer mugs.
The stairs are steep and no rails- could be tricky for people with bad knees. The WiFi was tricky, as well as the typical Asian shower for those not accustomed to.
Todo es perfecto y Dary es una buena persona que cuidará de ti
The rooms were comfortable and clean. Dary and her family were excellent hosts and chatted to us about our plans for our time in Kratie. She arranged a kayak tour for us with a local guide which was great. Also the fried veggie noodles were the best I have had in my time in South East Asia. Dary’s mother is an excellent cook and the food was also very affordable.
I liked everything about this property.
Chambre propre et spacieuse, terrasse agréable !
Emplacement un peu éloigné du centre de kratié, sans moyen de locomotion à disposition et grab non disponible. Un peu insistante sur le payement direct de chaque prestation. Il est habituellement plus pratique de payer tout en une fois en fin de séjour.
A charming new guesthouse in a local village just outside the main city of Kratie - but walking distance to everything you need. Dary was very helpful while we there, assisting us in organising Dolphin watching trips and onward travel to Siem Reap. The room was very clean and comfortable, we would happily visit again.
Although not a problem for us, our room (7) had a pump that could be a bit noisy at times, so maybe not the best for very light sleepers. Breakfast was not the cheapest, and could benefit from including tea/coffee, but we were suprised to receive a whole fresh baguette with our Omelette so were very well fed for the money!
Eine überraschend schöne und gepflegte Unterkunft in einem sehr einfachen Vorort von Kratie. Dary die Gastgeberin war überaus freundlich und kommunikativ. Das Zimmer war grosszügig und sauber mit Balkon. Das Frühstück und Abendessen auf Bestellung waren liebevoll und traditionell zubereitet. Sie hatte immer gute Tipps, vermietet Scooter und vermittelt Ausflüge. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen, wir haben sogar unseren Aufenthalt verlängert.
La chambre individuelle est un peu plus spacieuse que les photos le laissent penser. Le matelas est confortable et la clim est un vrai plus !
Excentré du centre ville, vous aurez besoin de louer un vélo pour vous sentir libre d'explorer les alentours (mais vous pourrez en louer sur place). L'hôtesse est sympathique, mais elle aurait besoin que son mari (allemand) l'aide davantage pour gérer l'afflux de touristes, notamment ceux qui pensent arriver dans un hôtel de luxe alors qu'il s'agit simplement d'une super Guesthouse.
Nice owners, good food in their restaurant, helpful booking tours and onwards travels. Can rent scooters and bikes. Chatty friendly lady who owns the place and it’s set in a village a short walk into town along the seafront mainly so flat
A bit loud in the mornings so neat to bring ear plugs if you don’t want to be woken early, otherwise it’s a great alarm clock!
Struttura situata in una tipica zona di Kratie, a pochi passi dal Mekong, posizione davvero perfetta per godersi l’atmosfera della zona. Dary è stata estremamente disponibile e gentile, sempre pronta a dare ottimi consigli sulle migliori escursioni da fare nei dintorni, rendendo il soggiorno ancora più speciale. Un tocco in più? La sua splendida gatta Mimi, adorabile e super affettuosa! Possibilità di noleggiare motorini a un ottimo prezzo, comodissimi per esplorare i dintorni in autonomia. Colazione molto buona, varia e preparata con cura. Consigliatissimo per chi vuole vivere un’esperienza autentica a Kratie.
Gezellig tussen de lokale bevolking. Gastvrouw is erg behulpzaam en betrokken.
Comfortable, extremely clean, caring staff, and great being a part of village life.
This place is a gem. My room was spacious and I had excellent service at all times from Dary, who is clearly embedded in the local community. I was also able to rent a bike and organise a dolphin kayaking tour with a local guide through her. I ate several times at the guesthouse too - everything was delicious.
Situé dans le village accolé à Kratie , au milieu de la vie locale , emplacement authentique très apprécié! La ville est facilement accessible et proche . L’accueil de Dary est superbe, femme dynamique et engagée. Le lieu est bien équipé, très propre et agréable. Tout l’essentiel pour nous !
On a passé un très agréable séjour chez Dary ! Son établissement est situé à proximité du Mékong dans une ambiance locale et ça donne une super atmosphère. Dary en plus de proposer une excellent cuisine ( miam les pizzas ! ), se plie en quatre pour que l'on passe un séjour au top. Elle nous aider notamment à trouver une excursion géniale en kayak pour voir les dauphins ainsi que sur les différents transports. Merci Dary !
The place is spotless. The room and bathrooms are spacious. Dary is helpful. The structure is not fancy (I don't think there are fancy structures in Kratie) but covers well all the basics, and the value for money is great.
The position is not great, factor in a walk or a tuktuk to reach the center.
Dary is very helpful. She arranged a tour for us at a very reasonable price and rented me a bicycle. The place is very pleasant, quiet and clean, and the pizza wa surprisingly delicious!
L implantation au cœur d un village accueillant et à 15 minutes a pieds de Kratie, le travail de Dary aux petits soins pour que tout se passe au mieux, la cuisine ! (Et le choix des carrelages de ciment 😉)
Rien
Great view of the Mekong from the balcony. Nice "colonial-style"-architecture.
A small fridge in the room would be great
Nous avons absolument tout aimé dans cet endroit. Dary est formidable, gentille, attentionnée, disponible, avenante... Les chambres sont grandres et propres. La climatisation est moderne et silencieuse. Il n'y a aucune bruit la nuit, vous pouvez dormir paisiblement dans une literie confortable. On peut y louer des scooters pour visiter la campagne ou l'île des pamplemousses, ou se rendre à krampi pour voir les dauphins. On s'est senti comme à la maison...Mangez dans son restaurant, tout y est délicieux : les plats cambodgiens et même les pizzas qu'elle fait elle même sont étonnamment très très bonnes
Rien, même le fait d'être un peu éloigné du centre ne nous a pas dérangé car cela permet de ne pas avoir de bruit de circulation. Et la nourriture de Dary est tellement bonne qu'il n'y a pas besoin de ressortir en ville le soir de toute façon,
Super séjour à Kratie, l'hôte était très sympa en plus de parler très bien 1nglais. La sortie kayak avec le guide était super !
Rien à signaler
Very nice little guesthouse in the middle of a village with typical village life all around. Very helpful and pleasant hosts. Good food. Room was large and had all the facilities needed.
Nothing
Un accueil extrêmement efficace pour nous aider à organiser les visites que nous voulions faire. Et nous avons beaucoup apprécié la vue imprenable sur le Mékong
החדר נקי ומאובזר. המארחת מדהימה אוכל טעים
אמנם כיף בכפר אבל רחוק ממסעדות ומכולות
Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst. Goede uitleg over wat er te doen is in de omgeving Geweldig lekker eten.We hebben haar gevraagd om een mooie activiteit. En jawel. De beste sinds we in Cambodja zijn. Dank u Dary
?
Pas grand chose
Le désintérêt de la patronne pour ses clients
Dary !! Adorable et très arrangeante! Elle nous a booké l'activité kayak avec les dauphins et le bus !! Parfait L'emplacement est très chouette ! Dans le village adjacent au sud de Kratie et donc typique khmer (pas en pleine ville , 2dollars seulement pour rejoindre le centre...)
Das beste war Dary, sie macht alles, auch dss Essen ,und das zu ungewöhnlichen Zeiten, ist immer da ,sehr rührig . Mir hat sie einen sehr guten Tuk Tuk Fahrer vermittelt, der mit mir auch eine Tour durch die Dörfer machte. Schön waren auch die Fahrräder ,die ich eifrig benützt habe.
Leider konnte ich kein grösseres Zimmer nach hinten mehr buchen ,aber das Einzelzimmer ist fürchterlich laut, und zwar von innen. Daher meine etwas schwächere Bewertung ;Dary freut sich ,wenn alles ausgebucht ist, aber für mich war es nicht so gut. Sonst war alles in Ordnung!
The room was huge and very clean. The guesthouse is located in the village and is quiet but characterful.
Nothing to note
Dary is a great and lovely host. The guesthouse is in great shape, designed very well and well cared for. Room and bathroom were clean and everything worked very well. Breakfast and dinner options were great (make sure to try the Khmer Curry and their Pizza!). Dary rents out bikes and can arrange tours (we did the dolphin kayaking tour with her friend and it was fantastic!). She also helped us book the Minibus to Siem Reap. There's an interesting local market next to the guesthouse. Restaurants and shops are a bit further away but you can get everything you need in the guesthouse (food and drinks). You'll also get water from mini markets if you walk around the neighborhood a bit. ATMs are quite a bit away (20-30min walk) - we recommend the Canadia Bank ATM at the Mekong Promenade which worked very well and had the option of US dollars or Riels. We liked that the guesthouse is in a small street with lots of local people, which means you can see Cambodian every-day-life. We really enjoyed our stay at Dary's and would definitely stay there again.
Wifi was very slow. The toilet seat was a bit out of place - not a deal breaker but a bit weird.
Dary was the perfect host, she couldn’t do enough for you. She helped to arrange some activities for me as well as my onward travel to Laos. The place was very clean and the food was tasty as well as being great value.

Le quartier authentique, l’auberge magnifique, Dary est d’une extrême gentillesse et les repas sont tous excellents. Merci pour ce magnifique séjour
Super proper, goed bed, lekker ruikende lakens, mooi nieuw hostel, zeer lekker eten, heel vriendelijke en behulpzame host.
Nous avons TOUT apprécié chez Dary's village : la décoration, la chambre spacieuse, le restaurant et surtout la convivialité. L’hote parle parfaitement anglais et nous a raconté son histoire très touchante et comment fonctionne la vie au Cambodge de manière générale.
.
Dary nous accueille simplement ,et cuisine simplement d excellent plats...Emplacement au cœur d un quartier Khmer, établissement a recommander sans aucun doute ..Merci Dary 😊
We only stayed one night at Dary’s Village Guesthouse & Restaurant, but the experience was truly excellent. The property is new, well-maintained, and spotlessly clean. The on-site restaurant offers tasty dishes and good service. One of the biggest strengths is the girl who manages the guesthouse—she’s very friendly, speaks excellent English, and is always ready to help. It’s the perfect place for those seeking peace and an authentic glimpse of Cambodia, while still being within easy reach of the city.
The location might be a bit inconvenient for travelers who want to walk everywhere. The guesthouse is slightly outside the city center and requires a short ride down an unpaved road to reach it. The center is about a 5-minute TukTuk ride away, so renting a scooter or relying on local transport is recommended. It’s not ideal for those looking to explore entirely on foot, but it’s a great option for anyone wanting to stay in a more authentic, less touristy area without being too far from the main attractions.
Dary is a wonderful person who cares about the customers. The room with AC was big enough for all of us and the matresses was so comfy. Foods was great and our daughter enjoyed helping Dary to Cook. The guesthouse is well located into a authentic village. We really appreciate the deep chat with Dary. I recommend 100% this homestay
We stayed here for 3 nights and it was a really nice experience. Dary, the owner, she is very nice and helpful. The room was spacious and clean, with a big bathroom and AC. The bed was comfortable and big. You can sit on the terrace and watch the village people pass by and doing their life. Its a really nice experience. The market is just around the corner and there are a few shops also. To go in the city you can either go by walk or rent a motorbike or a bicycle.
Everything! Dary has very big and extremely clean rooms. They are very well equipped with a nicely working AC and comfortable bed + nice shelf to put clothes. The bathroom is also super super clean (one of the cleanest during our whole travel), it smells nice and has a „real“ shower (no wet bathroom). The highlight is probably Dary and talking to her. We chatted with her every day and she gave us so many insights about her life and the rural village and how it is to grow up in Cambodia. It was super nice and interesting to learn more about the local life and to be able to ask her questions. Her English is great so communication is very easy. She also organised a Kayak tour for us (with Mekong Kayak Discovery) which we enjoyed a lot and can totally recommend! She also has a very nice scooter and proper helmets which you can rent for a small amount and look at all the things she recommends to you :) Her mum is also very cute and the food was suuuuper delicious! We ate here almost all the time. Her husband is also super kind and gave us one of his DEET mosquito sprays as we were heading off to Mondulkiri next and I was afraid of Malaria there. We wholeheartedly recommend coming here :) we would definitely come back if we visit Kratie again :)
Dary is an exceptional host and person who works very hard and helps her local community a lot. Staying here honestly was the best experience i had in Cambodia, giving me a much stronger understanding of Cambodian life, while also having great experiences like a solo dolphin kayaking experience (with the great guide Phea Rom who gave me a brilliant picture of river life in Kratie than a standard tour company- I also saw many dolphins!). Dary and her mother are great cooks too. Dary also sorted me out a bicycle, and she introduced me to friends who gave a much better picture of Kratie life than standard tour companies- which was exactly what i was looking for. Honestly come here because you really get a really authentic picture of Cambodia and how the local area benefits from tourism from talking to Dary and her husband. The area is much more “village like” compared to the centre of town but it’s honestly nicer for it, the people are lovely. Facilities also super clean and lovely, room in great condition.
My time with Dary was something most can only dream of. From the minute I got there Dary was very welcoming and made me feel at home straight away. She shared so many wonderful stories with me about the village where the guesthouse is located which she grew up in. The village is alive and it was such a good experience to feel so immersed in true Khmer culture. Dary is an exceptional woman and it was an honour to support her and spend my time with her. The room I stayed in was very clean and food was delicious 10/10 stay :)
The location was close to the city while feeling like the middle of the small village. The guesthouse itself is great - clean, quiet, and cozy. The owners are both a dream to interact with.
Hospitality and kindness of owners :)
Dary so so helpful, I needed to Vietnam the next night and she helped me get everything from a bus to a tuktuk to the border. Helped get a kayaking tour and motorbike rental. The room was great and the bathroom/shower wonderful.
We had a fabulous two nights in this wonderful homestay on the back streets and just out of the city of Kratie. You are close to the Mekong river and in the center of village life giving you a true insight into the daily lives of the local people. Dary is a fabulous host who really goes out of her way to make sure you have the best stay in her home. The family have worked extremely hard to provide clean spacious rooms with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning to keep you cool. The food is excellent, the quality and quantity whether you eat Asian or western we would highly recommend you eat with her, you won’t be disappointed. Dary has excellent English and we enjoyed many a conversation with her about her upbringing in the village. Dary also can help you with tours and places to visit, being local she has the contacts and was a great help to us and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour we planned with her. This place is a perfect location to visit the must sees in this area, the accommodation is warm, welcoming and of high quality as you have a wonderful host who really wants you to enjoy your holiday/travel experience. We would highly recommend you stay here if visiting this area.
Very nice guesthouse a bit outside from kratie, but definitely better than the rest of the accommodations you can find in the city. Dary was extremely nice and always ready to help you with anything. You will be surrounded by local life and enjoy the sunset on the Mekong just in front of it. You can rent scooters, organize day tour to see the dolphins or book a bus for your next destination.
Best accomodation in Don Det
Amazing place in a great location. She is so so friendly and happy to spend time telling you about the local area.Im sure she helps out so many travellers along the way.
That ididn't find this place sooner and only got 1 night here.
Dary is the most welcoming and caring host - she got you sorted in Kratie. Plus you can enjoy her signature crusty & delicious pizza 🍕
The rooster next door 🐓 haha - It’s a true village experience with the comfort of a modern hotel. A fantastic and unique experience!
Dary was a fantastic host. She helped us with whatever we needed, and shared story’s about herself and the town of Kratié. We were able to rent bicycles and take the ferry to the island. There are also two cats!
A little walk from the town, but not an issue.
Everything is brand new with great attention to detail
Where do I start, Dary is heartwarming, curious and doing a lot to support a very poor community, she has a very nice place in the village and a lot of stories to tell, the rooms are very nice and clean we felt very much at home with her.
Lovely accommodation, Dary was super helpful and her Mum was just a sweetie and a superb cook. I was poorly one day so not eating, Dary brought a kettle to our room with fresh ginger and lemon. So kind of her, lovely stay.
Nothing we extended our stay.
Really nice room, very clean ! Really nice owner ! Guest house not located in the center but really close, 5/10 min with a bicycle ! I recommend this place !
Spotlessly clean and new guesthouse run by the delightful & ever-helpful Dary. Amazing home cooked food: local food sourced locally; quality imported food for the more western choices (like the delicious pizza). Kratie is a properly local town with no pretentions; a great base to see the dolphins, visit the island, walk through the small local market (you can hire bikes and scooters from Dary too, or arrange trips and tuk tuks).
We loved witnessing the slice of real Cambodian life, though understand some might find it too up close and personal.
Fantastic 🤩 place.. Dary is an amazing host, speaks excellent English and I'm pretty sure is the best cook in kratie! The food there is gorgeous both local and western dishes. The rooms are modern and very clean. We had a very comfortable 3 night stay and would definitely come and stay again. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. Thank you Dary
Nothing it was excellent 👍
Separate Showers, nice recommendations, local morning market nearby
Property was very new which was nice, facilities very clean and comfortable. It’s about 30 min walk from the bus station, however this was not an issue as there is a lovely riverside walk or you can hire bikes. Lovely sunset over the Mekong on your doorstep. Owners arranged bike hire and took me to the night bus, they were also very helpful with local knowledge.
Nothing
Wonderful room, clean and modern, great faculties and Dary and her staff are so sweet, not only this but the food she cooks is exceptional.
There really isn’t anything, it was refreshing to be in a homely quiet guesthouse with a great community, I would love to return
Dary’s guesthouse is a fantastic place to stay. It’s a modern building constructed in 2023, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. The host, Dary, is the kindest person you’ll ever meet. She goes above and beyond to make her guests happy. We had many fascinating conversations with her and learned a wealth of information about Cambodia, Kratie, and herself. I ate a couple of times at the guesthouse and the food is fresh and tastes very nice. The guesthouse is located a bit further away from the city center (15-30min). However, the walk along the Mekong is very pleasant. Alternatively, you can rent bikes at the guesthouse or order a TukTuk (around 2$).
During the day (never at night), it can be a bit loud when the close-by woodworking shop is cutting planks.
👩 Dary, the host! She was amazing :) She helped us with everything we needed: Scooter rental, kayak tour, laundry, transport, recommendations of places to visit, etc. She was also open to share her personal history with us which gave us a deeper insight into real life in Cambodia. 🛏 The room was great. It was big, clean, had natural light. The bathroom was spacious and clean and even had a shower separation. ❄️ The AC! This was the best AC we have had throughout our 4 months in Southeast Asia. The air didn't feel too dry and set to the right temperature, it was neither too cold nor too warm. This is something very rare for us.
📍 The only thing someone could dislike about this place is that it's a little outside of the city. We actually didn't mind it at all as we had a scooter. And this way, we got to see another part of town :)
Dary is adorable, she really does the best to make everyone feel comfortable
We absolutely loved our 3 night stay at Dary‘s Village Guesthouse & Restaurant. Our room was very spacious and clean. The guesthouse is situatrd in the village where Dary grew up so you get to experience the authentic life of the people and kids there and can also try the food at the local market just around the corner. Dary is such a beautiful person inside and out. If you’re interested she will also tell you a lot about her life and the life of the people in her village. The food her mom and Dary herself are preparing is delicious. If you are up for some activities or need support to organise your transport, Dary will arrange everything for you. Thanks for making our stay unforgettable! We already miss you! 💕
The location is wonderful, in a real Cambodian village, not in the town but 3 min tuk tuk away $2. Fascinating to watch people going about their lives, shopping at the daily market, with dried fish and fruit spread on mats on the ground. Seeing their houses/wooden and tin huts mostly, without being intrusive.
The bed in the apartment was rock hard. SE Asian beds often are though. Dary is a wonderful host, but the food prices are equal to those in hotels. Part of the charm is that this isn't a hotel though.
Location was great, Dary’s was so welcoming as soon as you arrived.
Everything was absolutely perfect: - Location among local people - Super nice room - Nice view of the Mekong from the top floor - Dary was super helpful - Located to a local market, where you can enjoy breakfast in the morning - Attention from Dary to local people
Nothing!! I should come back for sure.
Very clean room with a nice lemongrass scent when we arrived. Dary is very friendly and helpful. The bed and bedding are very comfortable, with a nice thick duvet. The pizzas are very yummy. The location is nice and close to the riverside.
It's a bit noisy around the guesthouse which is understandable as it is in a normal residential community, but within the guesthouse, you can very clearly hear anyone who is talking in the front restaurant area. The breakfast was also a bit basic for $5.
This is really a gem that sticks out to your standard homestay and guesthouses. I've been in countless in Asia and this was one of the best. The host Dary is amazing. She is friendly, helpful and has a lot of interesting stories to tell. She loves to talk and you can sit with her and her husband in the evening to share stories about how she grew up and about life in this Village. Rooms are big, Clean, big bathrooms. All kinds of services available, bus Transport, motorbike and bike rental, dolphin tours. Cant recommend this enough. If you go to Kratie this is the place.
Very comfortable room, we had a pleasant stay. If you want to be more into the local village this Guesthouse is well located.
The western food at the restaurant was expensive for what it was. We recommend the local food. We were disappointed to pay extra fee for the bus to Mondulkiri compared to the price in the other guesthouses.
