Beautiful place to stay
Beautiful boutique hotel, beautifully decorated in a beautiful setting. The room was spacious and had everything we needed, the breakfast was superb and the hosts did their best to make us feel at home. Swimming in the pool feels like being in the middle of nature, surrounded by flowers and trees. It's so calm and still. It's about a 10 minute walk to the nearest beach but we got around with a tuk tuk driver recommended by the hosts.
Everything was perfect.
"I liked the green area and the small but comfortable pool, which created the feeling of an oasis. The rooms are spacious, with plenty of outlets, a spacious shower, and good shower products and shampoo. A ceiling fan works. Air conditioning in the room is available for an extra $15 per night.
The breakfast is average: they make omelets, scrambled eggs, and pancakes, along with delicious sausages. But... all the cold meats are in jars. Okay, so the sausage, cheese, and butter are in jars, each with three thin slices. But serving cucumbers and tomatoes, which cost next to nothing in Kenya, is ridiculous. There are 2-3 very thin slices at the bottom of the jar. Eating a vegetable salad in the morning is unrealistic.
I don't share the enthusiastic praise for the food in their restaurant; it's nothing special. Some dishes are completely tasteless.
For three days, they couldn't change the pool towels properly. Sometimes they wouldn't bring even one, sometimes only one. And then, when you're already at the pool and just went to your room for towels, which, to your surprise (every time), aren't there, you're forced to prove to reception that there aren't any towels again. And you ask them to bring them anyway, since you're already at the pool, to the pool. But these amazing people stubbornly refuse to bring them to your room. Not right away, of course. The record for fastest delivery is 20 minutes, but usually it takes 40 minutes to an hour. And this is after 3 PM, when the room had already been cleaned, but yesterday's towels were taken away and clean ones weren't brought. And no one apologizes. This is the norm for them.
Overall, poor service, poor food, poor location. Nice grounds, pool, and rooms. Overpriced minibar and overall food."
