The staff are what make the place. They will go above and beyond for you! It’s also beautiful! The rooms are clean and quiet. Not the fanciest hotel in the world but comfortable and comforting. Nothing left to be desired.

Janette

Liked: Cleanliness
Nice choices: 2 pools (1 adults only); private beach area with chaises longes/thatch umbrellas; buffet each meal but you could get “snack”(burger/fries, fish n chips) any time plus there’s a separate pizza/pasta café. Scenic beach area with a turtle shaped rock; tide pools/coral to explore right there. Nice beach but really needs constant maintenance to clear the dead seaweed away. Beach covered with seaweed every day I was there (7 days), strewn with trash.

Great property okay food horrible check in service when they didn't recognize my booking from Orbitz. Took over an hour to get into the room and they demanded that we pay again. After many refusals they finally let us in. Lunch was worth skipping but breakfast and dinner were good. Beer is cheap and drink service is so slow we didn't bother

The hotel and staff seem tired. Uniforms are old and faded. Restaurant is completely disorganised with no plates or cutlery available for long periods leading to ques that consume most of the food... then another wait while they restock the buffets. Sad really. Think there is a lack of good management involvement driving down morale.

Can't beat Kenyan sunshine & hospitality!
We have been staying at this hotel every year since 1999 because we love it. Staff can't do enough to help and provide excellent service. If you find loads of children too much, avoid school holidays! Gets a bit noisy then but peaceful during term time.

Great stay
Our ocean view room was superb. Though the room was big old and furniture were basic and possibly they need sprucing up. But the location was fantastic. We could see the ocean from the bed. Services were great and people were genuinely hospitable. We would surely like to come back in near future.

cool environment, clean and very convinient
It was amazing. I look forward to visiting again. The staff were very courteous and friendly except afew who seem to give more attention to the white visitors. The white visitors should not think they are better than the Africans and dictate that children are making noise for them. After all one comes with the children also for them to enjoy the enviroment
