This laidback island stole my heart! Koh Rong Samloem is the ultimate destination to relax and recharge. Saracen Beach, with its white sands and crystal-clear waters dotted with bungalows and hammocks, is perfect for unwinding. But my personal favorite? The tranquil Lazy Beach 🌴 where a dog accompanied me for the rest of the afternoon.
Snorkeling, diving, and canoeing are the main activities here, so leave your laptop behind—power and WiFi have their own schedule! This small island is ideal for exploring on foot, with jungle trails leading to hidden beaches. If you're feeling adventurous, hop on a boat and cruise around the island's coastline.
I stayed at the cozy Hornbill Guesthouse — a cozy place that felt like home! ✨ At night, don't miss the mesmerizing fluorescent plankton in the sea. Go to a dark beach, take a swim, and witness a light show. I met other travelers who called it "a starry sky upside down," or being on fire under water." Truly magical! 🌌
