Full Review
Done Right Beach Bar occupies a smaller footprint on Otres 1 than Otres Corner or Papa Pippo, with the layout running compact beach bar format: bean-bag seating spread across the sand, a small bar handling drink service, and a kitchen that handles basic Western and Khmer dishes. The smaller scale produces a more intimate atmosphere than the larger neighboring venues.
The weekly bonfire nights are the venue's distinctive programming. The bonfire pulls the crowd from neighboring venues for the social anchor, with the format running typically on one weekend night per week (varying by season). The bonfire provides the visual focus and the warmth that the post-sunset Otres evenings call for.
The cocktail program runs stronger than most beach bars at this price tier. Bartenders work proper preparations and the pricing at $3-5 USD per cocktail sits at standard Otres rates while delivering better quality than the budget alternatives. Beer at $1.50-2.50 USD, buckets at $4-6 USD. The drinks side is genuinely good value.
The kitchen handles basic Western and Khmer dishes. Burgers, sandwiches, banh mi, fried rice, noodles. Quality is functional rather than impressive at $4-8 USD per main. The food side is supplementary rather than a destination.
The crowd is heavily Otres 1 backpackers, with the bonfire night programming pulling the broader Otres community. The atmosphere stays casual and conversation-focused throughout the evening, with the bonfire culture and the smaller scale producing a more community-feeling venue than the larger party bars. The 1 AM closing extends later than most Otres 1 venues.
The Neighborhood
Otres Beach is a three-kilometer arc of fine white sand south of central Sihanoukville, divided into Otres 1 (main bar zone), Otres 2 (quieter, residential), and Otres Village (inland). Done Right Beach Bar sits on Otres 1 between Otres Corner and Papa Pippo.
Getting There
Tuk-tuk from central Sihanoukville costs 5-8 USD and takes 15-20 minutes. Grab and PassApp are usually cheaper at 3-5 USD. From Serendipity Beach Road, 5-7 USD tuk-tuk. Motorbike taxi is faster but less comfortable.
