LZ Sea View Residences

The address is in Village 5, Sangkat Buon, Krong Preah Sihanouk. This is an urban Sihanoukville setting rather than a secluded resort compound, with access to the city’s everyday services and sea or city outlooks from higher levels and shared areas. The exact route, traffic pattern and view should still be checked in person because orientation and floor level materially affect the experience of an individual apartment.

The architecture is straightforward and recognisable: a light-coloured high-rise with vertical balcony lines, prominent LZ signage and a substantial rooftop amenity zone. The selected photographs show the finished facade, landscaped grounds and operating interiors. The cover is an exterior photograph of the completed building, not a render or an unrelated interior, so buyers can assess its current appearance directly.

The official unit mix consists of 43.24 sqm studios, one-bedroom apartments of 64.33 or 68 sqm, and a two-bedroom format of 112.24 sqm. Each description highlights a fitted kitchen, bathrooms, furniture and a large balcony. These are relatively generous sizes in the studio and one-bedroom segments, making the layouts relevant for longer stays as well as short-term use.

The 43.24 sqm studio combines sleeping, cooking and dining functions in a single room. Photographs show space for a full bed, a kitchen line, a dining table and storage, while the balcony adds daylight and an outdoor edge. It is the simplest format to buy and manage, but a purchaser should confirm whether the displayed furniture is included, which direction the windows face and whether units of the same nominal type differ in layout.

One-bedroom apartments of 64.33 or 68 sqm separate the bedroom from the living room and offer more privacy. The official description lists a kitchen, bathroom, living area, separate bedroom and balcony. This is likely the most flexible format for a single resident or couple who plans to stay longer, while remaining familiar to tenants who want more separation than a studio provides.

The two-bedroom home is officially stated at 112.24 sqm with two bathrooms. An agency profile gives 111.24 sqm, so the area of any specific apartment should be checked against its floor plan and title documents rather than assumed from a general listing. At this size it becomes a family-oriented or long-stay product with separate bedrooms and a larger shared living area.

Amenities are concentrated inside the building and at the top. Official materials describe a fitness centre, rooftop pool, the Level 22 restaurant and bar, a 24-hour front desk, housekeeping, in-room spa services, fast fibre internet and secure parking. The project photographs confirm a gym, pool, reception lobby, lounge and dining space, although opening hours, access policies and charges should be verified for owners and tenants.

The rooftop pool and shared social areas are the development’s strongest visual assets. They provide city and coastal outlooks even to residents whose apartments do not have the best orientation. These facilities also require continuing maintenance, so buyers should request the current operating budget, repair history, guest rules and actual opening schedule before relying on them as a permanent part of the ownership experience.

A current 15th-floor studio listing provides an asking-price reference of $96,480, equivalent to approximately $2,231 per sqm in that advertisement. It is the price of one particular unit, not a guaranteed project-wide tariff. Resale values depend on floor, outlook, condition, included furniture, the seller’s legal position and negotiating urgency, so comparisons should use the full specification rather than a single headline price.

The same listing states strata title, full furniture, a management and sinking-fund charge of $1.90 per sqm, electricity at $0.25 per kWh and parking at $50–60 per month. Those numbers are useful dated references but may change and may not apply identically to every home. A buyer should obtain a fresh statement of charges, parking rules and confirmation that the selected apartment has no outstanding building fees before paying a deposit.

The official website advertises daily, monthly and long-term stays as well as rental management. For an investor, this means there is an existing service framework, not a guaranteed return. Actual occupancy will depend on seasonality, the condition and view of the unit, operator performance, competition in Sihanoukville and the terms of the management agreement; fees, termination rights and responsibilities need separate review.

LZ Sea View Residences is therefore a well-documented completed project rather than a small or obscure scheme. Even so, sources disagree on basic scale: the official website and a current listing point to 320 units and a 22-storey building, while some aggregators report 588–600 units and 21 floors. This dossier uses the official and fresher evidence, while preserving the discrepancy so a buyer can request the building register and technical documentation.

The development is most compelling at first screening for buyers who want a furnished, ready-to-use home with a pool, gym and resident services in one building. The sensible next step is to inspect several apartments on different floors, assess noise, humidity, lifts and shared areas, and then complete legal due diligence on the exact unit. Because the building is operating, most of those qualities can be observed and tested before committing to a purchase.

Legal review should match the seller’s identity to the title, examine the ownership history, confirm that the apartment is free of security interests and building-fee arrears, and obtain the registered plan with its stated area. The furniture and appliances included in the price, the basis for parking rights and the owner’s freedom to appoint or replace a rental manager should also be documented. In a completed residence, these questions can be answered through records and inspection rather than marketing claims.
