Independent Hotel by Dara

Hidden Gem Alert: Discovering Peace & Greenery at Independence Hotel by Dara in Sihanoukville 🌳✨

If you’re craving a tranquil escape in Cambodia’s beach city, Sihanoukville’s Independence Hotel by Dara has the vibes. You’ll find it nestled on Street 2 Thnou, surrounded by lush forests and just steps from the serene sea. The hotel itself is massive, yet it feels warm and authentic thanks to its endless greenery and spacious layout. Waking up here is a treat, with birdsong and forest breezes instead of city chaos 😌🌅.

Top Spots at the Hotel:
- Private Beach: Get away from crowds and stretch out on clean sands—though some mornings, construction noise can intrude, so try to hit the beach mid-day.
- Ocean-View Pool: Swim in calm waters with picture-perfect sea views.
- Breakfast Buffet: Satisfy cravings with Cambodian, Western, or Chinese fare while soaking in stunning scenery (go early for freshest picks and best seats!).
- Nature Trails: Take a stroll under the palm trees; it’s safe, quiet, and photogenic.

Travel Tips:
- Request a room facing the sea or forest for maximum chill and sunrise views.
- Take advantage of Chinese-speaking service if you need extra help.
- Bring earplugs for early construction sounds and bottled water for the beach.
- For a smoother breakfast, arrive early and aim for the freshest options.
- Use the local tuk-tuks or pre-book a car via trip.com for easy transfers to other parts of Sihanoukville.

Food? Definitely try the hotel’s breakfast spread—but don’t miss local seafood at nearby restaurants. Most spots accept cash (USD or Cambodian riel). Sihanoukville’s hot, so pack lightweight clothes and sunscreen!
