Only reason not recommended to friends is the distance to town, but still walkable if you're willing to kill some time in the heat. The A/C wasn't the greatest. Also, eating at the fish market, or the market in Kep left us ill for our stay. One of the staff informed us the market isn't the cleanest after we had gone, really nice fellow that offered to go to the pharmacy for drugs. We rented a scooter for 8 riel for the day. Didn't receive instructions other than how to start it. Seemed fine until we made it to the top of the National Park (and because the gauges didn't work) we didn't know that we had run out of fuel when it had quit. We coasted back down, put 2l of gas in and tried to go back up the park, but the gate was closed... Went back to the resort, still paid full price. The breakfast buffet also never occurred, some people said it was great, we never had that experience. Can say that the loneliness of the resort was peaceful and having 2 pools to ourselves was great. The beach in Kep is also not bad, and the ocean isn't clear, but didn't see any garbage washing up (better than Phi Phi).
