Have read the reviews and passed Botanica during previous visits so was pleased to be able to stay there late this January. The new buildings are of good quality and the gardens are tranquil. It's a pleasant stay. However, the new pool, whilst welcome is a bit stark and modern so doesn't really go with the rustic surroundings. The lady... More

I stayed at Botanica in October 2012 and have taken awhile to add my review. What a lovely guest house with such friendly owners and staff! I had a very relaxing 4 days there. I have been to Kep about 6 times before and usually stay at Kep Lodge. I wanted to try something different after reading a good review... More

I usually don't write many reviews buy this place definitely is worth it. It is located by the main road so by bicycle (which are for free) you can get anywhere in no time. The new owner has renovated everything and I must say it is by far the place with the best ratio quality/cost so far I have visited... More

Lovely bungalows. Lush garden setting. Installing a pool now. Best part was the service, the family could not have been more accommodating. He gave us rides to town, including my friend to the pharmacy when I fell sick. They provided us with a thermometer and were generally kind and genuinely concerned. At first, we were a little put off by... More

Great place for someone on a budget. A few kilometres out of town. The bungalows are small but meticulously clean. Lovely garden setting. Good food. I've stayed there several times and the staff are always super friendly.

We reserved a fan room and stayed for three nights. The fan and cold shower were sufficient in the hot season and the price was incredible. The bungalows, while fairly close together are made private by the beautiful landscaping. After the day cooled off, we hung out on our porch and hammock and enjoyed the beautiful flowers and bird sounds.... More
