Perfect

We stayed here five nights with our family with three kids. During our stay, everything was made for us to have the most wonderful experience. The apartment is large and has all the amenities you want and the two bathrooms makes it really comfortable in terms of organization. The pool water is pleasantly warm and Charles will take real great care for you to have the best time. He even got us extra balls and rings for the kids to play with. You can even ask for a smooth cup of coffee that Joseph will bring with a smile. The WiFi cuts off from time to time, but from our global holidays in Kenya, it was one of the best. With an open way to the beach and a good for take out restaurant next to the hotel, I can’t think how our stay could have been better. I highly recommend this place and I really wanted to thank Danson for organizing everything from A to Z during our stay! Thank you 😊

A quiet retreat on a beautiful beach. My room was self catered, and I enjoyed traveling into town by taxi or tuk tuk for shopping. Next door on the beach is a classic surfer bar and restaurant.

We recently checked into your hotel and unfortunately encountered several issues during our stay. Upon arrival, we were informed that because we hadn’t pre-booked breakfast, no meals would be available the following day—even if we wished to pay for them—due to an event taking place. We explained that we needed access to food due to health conditions, but no alternative solution was offered. Additionally, we were promised a water dispenser that never arrived. Later that evening, the air conditioner began leaking, creating a large puddle of water in our room. To make matters worse, there was no phone in the room to contact reception for assistance. We eventually had to switch rooms late at night, which caused further inconvenience. Thankfully they located us to a much better room - no longer flooding. It is a beautiful place for events and wedding.

I feel I was misled by the photos. We were in a different building than what I thought from the main photos. The building is in need of repairs. We experienced, wifi outage - including a message when we tried to connect that the account was suspended for non payment. We were without water for an afternoon, the ac in the bedroom was not working. I have photos I can share showing the poor condition, including one of windows with boards over them presumably because the glass was broken. Paying over $300 a night I would have expected much more. I feel like I was ripped off.
