Looks like a good itinerary to me -- accommodation wise, I've not slept at Bhumiyama Beach Resort on Ko Chang, but House of Malibu is OK -- Malibu Bungalows (around the headland on Sokha Beach) is better -- same owner. Blissful is a great, old style guesthouse place -- facilities are basic, but difficult to go wrong there.

I can't comment on the rest of your trip, but I do have a few suggestions for your Siem Reap days; I doubt that you will take a whole day to see Angkor Wat, much less half a day to see Angkor Thom; there are lots of other temples to see in the same area which would be a shame to miss; the Bayon, Ta Prom and my favoruite Neak Pean (on the grand circuit). Also as the tickets are sold in one, three and seven days you would be wasting a whole day using your itinerary and eitehr buying two one day tickets at $20 each, or one three day pass at $40 and only using two days. I think you should allocate three whole days to seeing the temples and take time out of this if you feel you have seen enough.

The Ton Le Sap boat ride will not take a whole day; as per marianwarren's post and I would second her recommendation not to go there; Kompong Phluk (stilted village) is much nicer, although as it is not a ticket only affair will work out slightly more expensive; tuk tuk/moto out past the Rolous group (this could be done on one of your temple days if you wanted) and then a moto to the boats (the water level drops so that the "Road" is what is under water half of the time so this is not doable on a tuk tuk) and then negotiate the boat yourselves. Prvious prices for the boats are around $20-$25 (quite large boats for about 4/6 people). The stilted village is branding itself as a tourist attraction but it is still fairly peaceful and I've not heard anyhting but good comments from those that go there.

Other things to see in Siem Reap; Silk Farm, War Museum, Landmine Museum, Psar Chas, Grand Hotel's Happy hour (4.30-9.00pm daily-half price cocktails in the Elephant bar!!)

Also isn't the Floating Market in Bangkok about 1.5hrs drive from Bangkok; your single day in Bangkok seems jam packed comapred to the Siem Reap days.
