Really nice experience in the hostel, is chill area in frontnof the sea. The owners are so friendly and good vibes people.

No WiFi, but not detrimental to stay - a lot of power cuts on the island anyway so perfect for a technology detox

Lovely relaxed stay. We stayed in the loft room which was cosy and not too hot without air con. The staff were so lovely and helpful, plenty of optional social opportunities with fellow traveler’s and staff if wanted. Great location. Really enjoyed it here

The owners are very very kind! We stayed here a few months ago and still talk about it. Great location as well. Much to do for the guests. We didn’t do that, but there are great options Lieke & Gijs from Holland

I absolutely loved the room in the attic. Was a chill place to stay and the village has a great vibe.

Stayed in March 2025

We were in the attic and it was hot but such is life ☺️ The fan drowned out the late noise at night but we are old and this is a hostel so don't let it put you off if your in the attic!

Hosts were so lovely and welcoming, the place is spotless, beds were comfy, drinks were good, location was fab thanks for having us, you guys are smashing it ❤️

Dorms are not for people with brittle sleep.

Amazing hosts, friendly and social stay. I enjoyed the organized BQQ. The location at M'Pai bay is so chill.

I highly recommend staying at Seashell when staying in M’pai Bay! The location is perfect, close to restaurants and the ferry. Short easy walk to the big beautiful beach near town. I loved that they organize activities each day like game night or bonfire on the beach to bring everyone together and socialize. Also recommend eating at the Cambodian Kitchen behind the hostel, bonus they’ll even deliver lunch or dinner to the hostel!

Laid back, easy going spot, great vibes all around!

Great hostel on the seafront with good private rooms and dorms. Each bed has a fan and a mosquito net, and the location on the beachfront is unbeatable. Would definitely recommend!

No Wi-Fi It would have been nice to have mesh or glass in the windows in the double room rather than a hole closed off with a board on a dtring

Very friendly people. Right on the beach with a charming local village all around.

Amazing hostel with very comfortable chilling area and lots of games. The owners and staff are the best! Great Atmosphere and location!

Given the location (small fishing village on an island without major infrastructure) I think the facilities are what you could expect. Would have appreciated an electric converter in the shower to allow for hot water/at least adjusting the temperature of the water but didn’t mind too much.

Great choice if you are looking for a chilled ”in your extended living room” vibe. Easy to make friends, great location right at the beach. Did not have an opportunity to try the breakfast. No AC in the rooms but for me the fan in the private room was sufficient.

I was scared to walk on the stairs, especially with my heavy backpack to carry me up and down. I asked for help since I did not feel safe. There was only one hammock by the beach in the whole hostel. There was no eating by the beach. There was no soup or shampoo in the bathroom and showers. There was yoga for a small amount, but for 6 nights, I was there in town only once it was provided. Always was something 😩!

The location was good! It's a very small town every place has a good location lol

Nothing

I loved my stay at Seashell Guesthouse. Everything was clean, the hostel is well-maintained, the owners and volunteers were super friendly and were able to give me all the information I needed. The hostel is very easy to get to, as it's only 2 minutes from the M'Pai bay pier. The atmosphere is both relaxed and lively. It's also a great place to meet people. I recommend it 100% if you decide to stay at M'Pai Bay. Important to know: if you want to reach the island's other beaches, the only option is to take a taxi boat $10 for a return trip.

The vibe is super nice. Mads and Math are super welcoming. It’s a great place to rest and meet people

Blinds/curtains and a mosquito net in the private room would be my only suggestions. (Already available in the dorms)

Everyone at Seashells was lovely. Welcoming and friendly but still chilled. The common area was great for meeting people or staying solo if you prefer. Lots of cute dogs to pet and the view overlooking the water was great. My private room was really clean and the fan was enough to stay cool overnight.

The most incredible location was matched with a beautifully decorated and relaxed hostel with the cutest puppy! Really chilled vibe and sociable too, we were even invited to a party on the island for the opening of a new hostel which was fun. Bunk beds with plugs and a fan - we were a bit worried about lack of AC but this wasn't an issue at all. Really friendly owners who put on daily yoga classes and bracelet making. Food near the hostel is AMAZING - especially recommend the Seapony Cafe, the cambodian restaurant out the back of the hostel, and the massive mango shakes from the local restaurant 2 doors down. Quick tip, just make sure you take enough cash out on the mainland as thr whole island is cash only and get a SIM card as there's no WiFi on the island either.

Facilities were not that great, toilet’s weren’t the cleanest, water pressure was bad and the other toilet’s sink didn’t work. The stairs leading upstairs are a bit unsafe. A bit pricy in our opinion compared to other hostels we have stayed.

The lounge & staff were nice. Good location on the beach! Nice chill atmosphere.

Stayed in December 2024

It can get hot at night with the fans only.

The owners and the travelers I met at the hostel were great. The Hostel is located just right in front of the beach 👌🏽

The stairs up to the rooms were not the safest!!!!

The location and staff were great the accommodation was very comfortable.

showers not so powerful

The hostel is straight onto the beach and minutes walk from all the best restaurants and pier of M’Pai Bai. The minute we walked in we were welcomed by volunteers and instantly felt like a part of a family, and ended up extending to stay over a week when the original plan was 3 nights 😅

Everything! Lovely people, dogs, comfy dorms. Can't wait to come back for next holidays

Lovely little place. Was there during low season. Loved it. The bedroom and bathroom were clean and comfortable, the owners are lovely and the common area is just the nicest place to chill and hang out with travellers. M'pai Bay is a remote place on the island - it is calm, quiet and peaceful where you can stop, breathe and relax. Just a simple and autenthic village inhabited by welcoming and beautiful people. Highly recommend to stop here.
