I keep reading forget about Cambodia's beaches and go to Thailand. While yes it's true that Thailand is famous for it's beaches, please don't make the mistake of discounting Otres.

Nice beach, a little trashed with water bottles and so on, but the water is nice and there are many restaurants and bars nearby suitable for dining and late-night partying. More
