Sihanoukville on the Gulf of Thailand four hours from capital Phnom Penh (there's also a local airport) is famed for its beautiful beaches and warm waters, and luxury resorts have been cropping up to take full advantage.

On premises are four restaurants, five bars, and two pools, along with a fine spa, fitness center, and casino.
