The staff helped me arrange awesome activities like game drives, snorkeling, and boat cruises. And dinner around the fire? I felt like I was camping in Africa, but with delicious food!

Mosquitoes everywhere. Such a delightful surprise.

We got great value for our money at this hotel. The room was comfortable and clean, and the location was perfect, just a short walk from town. The staff at the hotel treated us with such kindness and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.

Breakfast delights, but a wider variety of options would have made it even better.

Amazing tropical tree-house setting, spacious and lovely rooms with private verandahs. The lodge is surrounded by lush tropical plants and there is an outdoor pool. You might see monkeys and mongoose running around and hear horn bills in the trees. Hippos graze across the road at night. The family that owns the lodge is very friendly and helpful.

The breakfast room and another dining room were very cold during winter. A space heater would have been a nice addition.

A hidden gem with a serene atmosphere. My room was clean, comfortable and the surrounding tropical setting created a unique experience. The sound of water outside was soothing. The breakfast surpassed expectations, especially the perfectly cooked eggs. The staff's warm welcome and really good service made me feel right at home. Close to restaurants, shopping, and minutes away from the beach. highly recommended for a nice getaway.
