  Didn't stay here but did drink here every night and partied with the owners. Brilliant location and excellent choice of budget accommodation, great place to meet other travellers and have fun.

• Best Guesthouse I've ever stayed in!

  I'm currently staying at Monkey Republic and have been for 11 days now. Monkey Republic is the best place I have stayed at yet in my whole three months of travelling. The rooms are comfortable clean and airy and the bar and food is amazing! the staff are so friendly and welcoming. There is an wonderful sense of community at Monkey nobody ever gets left out! There's also a massive DVD collection and brilliant parties. The beach is only two minutes walk away and opposite is a cinema -- in short Monkey is where its at!

• Cheap, lively, good toasties

  Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Bungalows felt damp, but understandably so in rainy season. Free drink on arrival. Sihanoukville has a very creepy vibe at night, and especially I felt uneasy around the moto drivers that hang around all the time. But, here I felt safe, chatted with the night guard, and met many other travellers. They discounted to $5 for low season. I would stay here again!

• Uhmmmmm

  Yea, this place can be cool, it's along a row of other similar places. I never stayed here, but I did drink a beer at the bar, that was enough for me to say ya'll are ok in my book (although not mentioned in my real book). Most of the places I have stayed are not on this website. I would consider staying here if I was lost and could not get a room anywhere else on my list of places that are acceptable to my comforts.

• Munky Bunky

  The bungalows are damp dark and all heaped together as in a barracks and not cheap for the location which is on the busy major beach road. The bar is ok and the staff friendly but the noise at night is appalling. There is a cacophony of blasting noise from various bars both Khmer and foreign all within spitting distance of each other. If you are deaf or love atrocious noise then fine ... this is the place for you.

• Basic but good budget option

  The bungalows are all fan cooled and have basic cold water amenities, but face it when you're at the beach you're not going to spend much time in your hut! The staff are friendly and the bar lively. Food is pretty uninspiring, but cheap and it's only three minutes walk to the beach. Ask for a bungalow towards the back of the garden if you don't want to be kept up by the hopping crowd and trendy tunes coming from the bar at night. The latest the music lasted when we were there was 2am. $6 for a bungalow.
