2025 Kep Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#familytrips2024 Kep city is about 30 mins by car from Kampot. We took a boat across to Kaoh Tonsay (Rabbit Island), USD25 for a private boat (max 6 pax). The island is beautiful, peaceful and with a nice beach and clear waters. Met a nice lady who owns chalets on the beach, Simone, had a delicious lunch at her restaurant, fresh fish, Khmer style soup n noodles. The island gets v busy on weekends though with local tourists according to people we met in Kampot. Drove by the crab market but did not stop

This is a unique four-star hotel in Kep where you can do nothing but listen to the sounds of nature in the pool. It is located across from the familiar Vietnamese island of Phu Quoc, so you can enjoy the calm ocean view. If you drive a little further to the neighboring town of Kampot, you can find stylish cafes and delicious dinners. We also recommend kayaking in the majestic nature. The hotel is unique, and the stone paths go up and down, so it's fun to go to the restaurant and pool♪ The cats that live in the mountain behind the hotel come over during meals and beg well🐈 Dog lovers are also welcome! A friendly dog ​​will greet you when you check in🐕 Address: Kep Hillside road, Kep, Cambodia Postal code 9827 Zip code 22102 Atmosphere/facilities: Natural stone taste Air conditioning in the rooms Recommended point: The sunset from the pool is a must-see! Price per room: From around 10,000 yen (depending on the season and room) Rating: Best #Hotel stay #Kep #Cambodia #Asia travel #Countryside experience

I recently visited the beautiful , calm beach found in Kep, Cambodia. lovely to swim in and have a relaxing day. Not far from the beach you will find the crab market where you can eat fresh seafood 🤤. Kep is a very slow, peaceful town and worth visiting when in Cambodia🇰🇭 . There are also plenty of other restaurants to choose from for delicious meals. A ferry is also available to go to Rabbit island which can be seen from Kep beach. Unfortunately I never had enough time to also go to Rabbit Island. #newyearadventure #tripblazers #beachlife

We came here for a restful time and the staff and the owner were very good to us. The rooms were very nice and the views are gorgeous. They are pet friendly which is one of the many reasons we chose this place. There are two lovely pools and the breakfast included is very nice. It is just a restful relaxing place. We have come here often during the many years we have lived in Cambodia. Nice place to stay on holiday with a nice view. Just a small thing that I wanted to complain about. My friends and I were treated and asked like we are not the guests by a few staff. We are really not happy about it. Staff should be well trained to treat guests more politely at a good resort like this.

Adventure life is beautiful life. what make us feel fresh what make us productive. Coffee is the drink that most people like to take a drink. How many time we can sit down and drinking coffee on the mountain see the view of the nature and see view from the top of the mountain also have spun of the birds singing on the tree🌲 . Led Zep Coffee is a small coffee shop on the Kep mountain 🏔️ you can drive up to the mountain and take a cup of the coffee see all the fresh view from the top of the mountain. Coffee lover never missed this place if they are arrived at Kep and I been there two times already. Name: Led Zep Coffee Location: Kep Province, Cambodia Thank you. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers #fallingforfall

#fallingforfall #beachlife #tripblazers Driving about 3 hours to 4 hours from Phnom Penh city to see the beach at Kep Province. Relaxing at the beach eating seafood like Crab, Mussels, Squid, Chesapeake blue crab, Oyster and looking at the sea view. Very fresh for weekend or vacation time. Drinking coffee see the sea view and afternoon chilling out at the beach 🏝️ making great time and good memories. Many many people would like go to kep province at the weekend because it not too far from Phnom Penh city relaxing 2 days or 3 days coming back to work it is very beautiful life. Release stress with the 🌊 sea view. Hope everyone enjoy and I also recommend you if you come Cambodia you should go Kep Province. Thank you.

Kep is a coastal province in southern Cambodia, known for its seafood and tropical islands. The relaxed provincial capital of Kep, or Krong Kaeb, has wide streets with crumbling villas that recall its former glory as a French colonial resort town. Kep Beach has calm waters and a promenade with large statues, while vendors line the waterfront at the nearby crab market. Enhoy the crab.
