Choosing a destination to vacation in is not always easy. There are over three million vacation homes in the world. You have probably imagined all the countries you could visit since you were probably a child and even saved up an entire lifetime to visit certain kinds of places. The truth is even if you have your dream destination, choosing a legitimate accommodation within your destination can be just as hard if not confusing. Let’s look at it like this. You can log onto official websites like GCG Asia and view different kinds of hotels, villas and home stays. Some you may like but could however be way out of your price range while others, may be within your price range but not as desirable as what you would hope for. That’s where GCG Cambodia comes in. 

Let’s let GCG CEO and Founder Sokhom Visal give you a latest update from us: 

“Being a travel enthusiast, I remember looking through websites for the different types of accommodation they would offer in my desired destination. Perusing through the pictures would only make it harder. As the founder & CEO of the GCG Cambodia travel website, my main intention was to reduce the rate of scams that would occur with people looking to travel or booking homestays. 

As my company grew bigger, I began to look deep into the kind of ‘struggles’ I would have when I wanted to travel. I felt that this would make me more relatable to my customers and have better customer service, hence the creation of GCG Cambodia. GCG Cambodia is an extension of GCG Asia Travel Cambodia. 

Think of it like the west wing in a mansion. Both fall under the same roof, yet serve two different purposes which in turn help aid the function of the other. GCG Cambodia makes work easier because it narrows down hotels in a consumer’s price range as well as their desired accommodation. 

As the founder of both GCG Asia Travel Cambodia and GCG Cambodia, I wanted to drive for comfort. I also wanted to be able to serve each and everyone. I wanted to serve all classes. Being a realist, I knew GCG Asia Travel Cambodia was not able to serve certain social classes hence my creation, GCG Cambodia. I learnt that greed only drives away your customers and you as a business owner into a deep whole. I then decided to come up with GCG Cambodia where many needs would be catered for. GCG Cambodia caters for all the affordable prices that entail travelling. From accommodation to flight tickets, tour guides once you have reached your destination, food, basically everything,” says GCG Asia founder, Sokholm Visal. 

We believe that creating GCG Cambodia as a wing to GCG Asia Travel Cambodia was one of the best decisions we ever made. It caters to consumers’ budget, uniqueness and luxury. As you know, it is hard to find the most suitable budget rental that has no challenges however we have managed to partner up with certain rental homes that can cater to each and every social class. 

From students, to work colleagues and families, we have suitable and desirable homestay rentals that can fit each and everyone’s needs. Each of the rentals have a uniqueness to them from bamboo made windows and floors to staircases. Believe it or not it is possible for these same uniquely designed rentals to have beautiful modern pieces such as chandeliers and good bathrooms. 

“When we chose to partner up with other homestays, a lot of thought went into it. There was intention behind it. We wanted our consumers to feel as though they were home away from home so we partnered up with homestays that catered to our consumers desires and enabled them to have a good time within their budget. We also considered location. As a traveller, I prefer close-by accommodation. What do I mean? I would look for the simplest things when I would travel. One thing that mattered to me most was the distance from the airport to the accommodation. This is because I would sometimes travel long distances. 

With GCG Cambodia, I had this in mind. I made sure our consumers were able to choose where they wanted to stay and paired it up with the certain activities they would like to do in that particular area of choice. I wanted to show that our consumers could be satisfied and get great homestays at really affordable prices, ” says GCG Asia founder, Sokholm Visal. 

GCG Cambodia also likes to promote and support the local community. This is in terms of craftsmanship. There are many rentals that are beautiful and bring out the Cambodian culture. GCG Cambodia highly appreciated the local craftsmanship. 

Catering to and having guests from all over the world, brings about different cultures which share the same appreciation that GCG Cambodia has towards the local community and craftsmanship. We also have partnered up with properties that have beautifully designed communal lodges where people can interact with each other and exchange cultural lessons. We are proud to say GCG Cambodia has been a success so far as we have been able to make good money. Many of our clients are students who travel in groups and they are always amazed at how all the rentals GCG Cambodia has partnered up with uses reclaimed materials creatively. 

GCG Cambodia is happy not only because our business and creation is flourishing but we are also able to inspire the young students to be great entrepreneurs of tomorrow while conserving the environment, catering to their needs and getting our return on investment.
