Absolutely shocked by the exorbitant $40 charge for a lost standard metal key. This cost is complete
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Absolutely shocked by the exorbitant $40 charge for a lost standard metal key. This cost is completely out of line with the actual replacement cost and feels like pure profit taking They are setting a trap, and once you're caught, they charge you unreasonably. I will never book here again, and I strongly advise everyone to stay away; who knows what other surprise charges they might hit you with.

Pros:

Wir hatten einen rundum perfekten Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
Schon bei der Ankunft wurden wir herzlich empfangen und haben uns sofort wohlgefühlt. Das gesamte Team ist außergewöhnlich freundlich, aufmerksam und stets bemüht, jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen.
Die Zimmer sind wunderschön eingerichtet, sehr sauber und bieten alles, was man für einen entspannten Urlaub braucht.
Besonders begeistert hat uns die ruhige Atmosphäre und der traumhafte Blick.
Perfekt zum Abschalten.

Fell short of 5-star expectations
Pros:

The meals themselves were of very high quality (compliments to the Chef). The service staff—specifically Viscad, Agustino, Alfred, and Milka—were professional, friendly, and excellent.

Cons:

​We recently completed a 14-night stay, and while there were highlights, the experience fell short of 5-star expectations in several critical areas.
The check-in process was frustrating. Despite having already paid the full fare, they insisted on seeing the physical credit card. They also refused to cover bank fees incurred during the transaction. Furthermore, we were forced to fill out a form with our bank details, justified by the claim that they had been victims of fraud by previous guests—a policy that felt unprofessional.
​Arriving at 4:30 AM after a long journey, we were greeted with only two apples, two bananas, and some grapes. For a 5-star resort, this is incredibly poor.
We experienced multiple power outages with no generator backup. When the power goes out, the water supply stops entirely (though the internet curiously remained functional).
​The curtains were almost useless at blocking out light, and the shower had poor pressure and irregular temperatures. The balcony was never cleaned during our stay, and there are no TVs in the rooms.
​Towels were left on the floor by the doors, and the bath towels frequently smelled of fuel.
​Half-board only includes water at dinner. At breakfast, the fruit was green and tasteless, and the desserts had an artificial, non-natural flavor. We were also shocked when the staff refused to replace used cutlery with fresh sets during a meal.
​The Masai security guards were ineffective when guests were bothered by outsiders both in the vicinity of the resort and inside near the pool area.
​Despite the length of our stay, sports and other activities were non-existent.
​While the culinary team and service staff are doing a great job, the management, infrastructure, and lack of basic 5-star amenities make it difficult to recommend this resort for a luxury stay.

Piękne miejsce dla nielicznych
Pros:

Widok z pokoju, kameralność hotelu, lokalizacja hotelu, pyszne jedzenie przygotowywane przez szefa kuchni, fakt, że hotel jest tylko dla dorosłych, klimatyczna restauracja. Hotel jest bardzo dobrze zarządzany przez piękną i mądrą Panią Manager Hotelu :-).

Most amazing hotel with all its amenities!
Pros:

It is quiet, the beds and pillows are great, the shower is great, food is amazing, staff is super nice, the ocean…oh my god! So good! The balconies have the greatest views.
We stayed in many 4 & 5 star hotels around the world. This is one of the best for sure. There was literally nothing that could have been better.

Cons:

Nothing. Really nothing!

Schönes kleines Hotel mit Manko in der Kundenorientierung
Pros:

Schönes kleines Boutiquehotel am Strand mit bestem Meerblick.
Grosszügige Zimmer, Pool, Restaurant mit Strandblick, kleine Gartenanlage, alles sehr sauber und gut gepflegt  Sehr gutes Essen und freundlicher Service der Angestellten.

Cons:

Eine Top-Qualifizierung haben sie sich bei uns verscherzt mit der mehrmaligen Weigerung von der Residence Managerin bis zum General Manager, Mr. Amos, uns einen zweiten bequemen Sessel ins schön klimatisierbare und wirklich sehr grosse Doppelzimmer zu stellen. Dies obwohl bis zu unserer Abreise nur zwei bis drei der 18 Zimmer belegt waren und der nächste Sessel nur eine Zimmertür entfernt gewesen wäre. Wie viel gemütlicher wären unsere Erholungstage nach 10 Tagen Safari doch gewesen, hätten wir gemeinsam auf bequemen Sesseln eine entspannende Zeit lesend oder mit schönem Blick auf Strand und Meer im kühlen, klimatisierten Zimmer verbringen können. Für uns war diese Verweigerung des einfachen Kundenwunsches absolut nicht zu verstehen, es gab seitens Hotel auch keine Begründung dafür!
