nice big rooms, clean, good and generous breakfast, lovely garden, friendly staff who is also open to feedback.
Very difficult to find. It is on a quite road with private houses, there is nothing to tell it is a hotel, the sign is not visible at all, especially if you arrive at dark. No what’s up number for the host. It is designed for lical travelers with a car and local phone to call the host. Even the Uber driver could not find the place easily. The pool is not in working condition. The bathroom is old with outdated stuff. If they do a bit of renovation, put signs up and adjust the checkin process for international guests, it may be a lovely place to stay. Not too close to the town center, about 20 min walk but on a nice green road, ok to walk during day light. Definetely not ok to walk at night. There is also no side walk for pedestrians! The whole area is designed for travelers with a car.

Loved the location and the pool. Great and friendly staff. Chef knew exactly how to make a delicious breakfast. Cleaner didn't bother when the "Do not disturb" sign was on, and when she cleaned, it was spotless. Balcony sea view was stunning. The room is very spacious with a HUGE bathroom, we loved that! The walk to the mall and all types of restaurants were not that far, about 20 minutes.
The only complaints i have is that the aircon in our room was leaking water once it was on for a little while. The light in the room can't be put off while the fan is on, so we either had to sleep in a hot room (due to the aircon also leaking) or with the lights on.

Spacious room and bathroom. Best hot shower pressure I've had in 3 months' African travel. Excellent full English breakfast..the works. Quiet clean secure comfortable. Short walk to beach.
Location is in a very safe quiet neighbourhood amongst beautiful homes. Would suit someone with a car. But that wasn't me. I prefer being closer to city centre. My fault (not the guest house's) through not doing adequate research.

I loved everything about the place. Especially my room. It was so spacious and comfortable. The host on property was really friendly and welcoming. A five star experience!
There were gheko's in the shower, which might be an issue for other guests. But I love animals so I was cool with it

There is a security guard on site who is very helpful but no real hotel type staff member
I thought there was a reception person there. When I wanted to stay an extra night it was difficult workout. I had inquired about a transfer from the airport but never received a response
