Pros:

The friendly staff

Cons:

The fact that there was no power for my entire stay, and that I was the only guest that slept in the massive compound was scary. I also hated the limited menu.

worst ever stay
Pros:

property was alright but after awile you start noticing everything is in decline

Cons:

I was in 2 rooms they both were bad. Mold, broken toilets, no warm water (there is a time frame but still doesnt work) bugs all over, shower curtain with red spots(blood?) looks like a murder scene. Pool was filty. Basically ive been to Kenya alot of times clearly the worst place ive been too. Reception lies about payments, lunch that was already paid they forgot in there administration or was it a scam.. they didnt know i booked for 2.. they keep saying it was only 1 and had to pay extra they were rude

lovely off the beaten path older property at a great value !
Pros:

breakfast , sparling clean swimming pool , attentive hospitable staff , clean rooms , hot water in shower , decent food , central location

Cons:

this is my same complaint across most of East Africa ! Serving freeze dried "Nescafe" coffee from South America ! East Africa grows some of the BEST coffee in the World - PLEASE SERVE IT ! for low volume , low demand offer freshly ground AA Kenyan coffee in a French Press at table ! Would gladly Pay More for it ! Also , nearly every restaurant , every resort on the coast has nearly the same menu - too large , trying to be all things to all tourist - German - Italians - British ! simply the menu make it the BEST food , innovate and sophisticated along with Swahili Standard items . The restaurant here should be a lovely destination place for locals & tourist from all over - but the menu & execution needs innovative leadership.

L’esterno molto incantevole per il resto leggete sopra
Pros:

La struttura é carina, la piscina confortante per un buon relax, girano delle scimmiette in giro ed è di giorno un luogo molto tranquillo. Lo staff ê stato disponibile e ci ha fornito aiuto durante il soggiorno

Cons:

Avremo preso la giornata sbagliata e forse la camera sbagliata ? Possibile .. però ho dormito molto poco anche con i tappi per le orecchie perché un locale in zona aveva la musica altissima, e abbiamo trovato delle formichine su entrambi i letti, che abbiamo mandato via. L’acqua calda si può utilizzare solo a determinati orari, altrimenti é a pagamento

Pros:

Großzügig gestaltete Anlage rund um den schönen Pool.

Cons:

In der Nachbarschaft wird lange laut gefeiert und um 5 Uhr morgens meldet sich genauso laut der Muezzin.

Great location to move around Kilifi or stay all day by the pool with good food
Pros:

Friendly staff, including John on the bar who will help you with anything! Great location for getting around. Pool is a great and rooms are what you pay for. Their Tuk Tuk driver Japheth is also super reliable, fairly priced and absolutely lovely and really looked after us; ask for him at reception.

Very basic, slow and noisy.
Pros:

The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.

Cons:

There was loud music in the morning and into the evening. The rooms are positioned around the pool which can be visited by non hotel guests and is quite busy during the day so it’s a little noisy. There was no hot water, shampoo, etc. the breakfast was simple. The staff seemed quite unhappy and everything took a very long time (1hours or more to get an instant coffee)

Pros:

Se necesita moto o tuk tuk para desplazamientos como ir a la playa y al pueblo. Esta lejos. Descubrimos q si contratas alli las habitaciones es la mitad de barato. Mejor contratar alli. Mucho mejor precio q en booking. Piscina agradable y restaurante q hace pizzas buenas !

Cons:

Lejos del centro del pueblo y de la playa o de sitios de interés turístico.
Precio de booking . Mucho mas caro q en el alojamiento.
