Simply amazing!
Pros:

The staff were amazing and friendly, all of them.

Cons:

The TV could not connect to stuff like Netflix etc, maybe getting another smart upgraded TV will be a great addition.

The property is as beautiful. However, it should be advertised as an air bnb
Pros:

The grounds are beautiful and the staff fid their best. Howver, it was evident that they are untrained and had to get instructions from the owner (Mustapha) via phone regualrly.

Cons:

1. There was ine shared kitchen. The cgef was available on request and would be paid by each individual guest directly( each guest haf to cater for their oen groceries in addition to payinv the chef).
2. I arrived at 7.30 pm on thursday. I had called ahead to commhnicate that i would be later than had been indicated. Neuther the ownwer nir the manager were present to receive me. I was tecejved by the guard, who did a good enough job, given that it isnt his role to welcome guests. The guard also helped me order food from a menu that was available on site. However, the cafe did not have my first two choices off their menu. Eventually i settled on chips and black coffee. It arrived by was more of stale potato wedges than chips. The coffwe was 1 small satchet of instant coffee and half a cup of lukewarm water(i think some spilled in transit). There was also some residue at the bottom of the cup.
3. They have peacocks on site who squawk all through the night and early morning
4. The bathroom/ toilet for my rokm was located outside the room. It was also not lockable and even though the guard assured me nobody else would use it, i couldnt really be sure. It made me quite uncomfortable especially going to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
4. They only gave me one little piece of soap in the batbrokm and didnt restock for tge 3 days i was there. The room and bathroom were also not refreshed or cleaned throughout my stay
5. I had planned and hoped for a lazy day spent within the hotel and even a chance to enjoy the pool. This wasnt possible as i had no choice but to go out and source for food. I ate all my meals out and carried takeway for dinner. But atleast the kitchen is stocked with appliances so i could use the fridge and microwave as needed.
6. The cupboards in my rokm were lovked shut and one was even barricaded. I couldnt store my thinvs and operated out of my bag for the 2 nights.

Pros:

Бассейн, закрытая территория, уютно, большая кухня, холодильник, много посуды. Всё чисто и опрятно. Большая территория сада. Очень безопасно.

Cons:

До пляжа надо идти. Но лучше ехать на машине. В ванной комнате нет никаких умывальных принадлежностей. Только кусочек мыла и туалетная бумага. В комнате нет телевизора. Вечером делать нечего.
Но самое главное, что под окном орут, как резаные, павлины. Орут в любое время дня и ночи. В 5 утра, в час ночи. Орут так, как будто кота рвут на части. Спать невозможно. Ни одной ночи из шести я не могла спать всю ночь. Меня будили дикие вопли павлинов. Я ни разу не смогла нормально выспаться. Ребенок тоже просыпался каждую ночь.

Stealing from unsuspected customers, why approve my request if you know the room won't be available
Pros:

I booked and found the room occupied, you told me to cancel, upto now I am yet to receive my money. That's very poor customer service. I can't recommend

Cons:

The host is very arrogant, even after knowing he is the one on the wrong

Pros:

The staff were great. Very attentive and helpful.
The rooms are spacious and the location could accommodate our group of 12.

Cons:

Misleading description: The property listing states 6 bedrooms, but the reality is 4 bedrooms plus 2 separate rooms. Additionally, we booked an extra double room that was not provided during our stay.

The villa shows its age and would benefit from updates. Several ceiling fans were broken and produced very loud, disruptive noise when turned on, making them unusable.

Be prepared for very early wake-up calls starting at 5 AM from nearby mosques, followed by roosters at 6 AM, peacocks, and various birds continuing throughout the morning. Sleeping in is impossible at this location.

Despite booking in Swiss Francs, we were required to pay in Kenyan Shillings at an exchange rate 3% higher than the market rate, plus an additional 3% card processing fee. When we attempted to discuss these charges, the owner was rude and unwilling to negotiate.

Overall Experience: Unfortunately, the combination of misleading advertising, maintenance issues, noise concerns, and payment problems made this stay disappointing. Would not recommend or return.
