The perfect hotel for adults- alone or couples who want really good food, and a good time!
Pros:

The food was AMAZING! The staff were so friendly and helpful, Bed and rooms were comfortable. My partner and i had a great time! Their playlist was also great so we we're well entertained.

Cons:

We couldn't open our curtains in the room (14) because it was right outside the restaurant and there's no privacy. Some sheer curtains would be nice to let the view in and still have some privacy

An ecstatic quiet and lovely stay with nice food and company.
Pros:

The people are extremely warm and food is over the roof. Yummy.

Cons:

We only couldn’t use the balcony at the cabin houses because it had rained. If you put the shades, it will be more than lovely even if rains.

It was okay
Pros:

Nice place, very welcoming staff and great view of the ocean

Cons:

They don’t provide a mini-fridge for the rooms. They don’t provide an iron for the rooms, so you’ll have to pay to have your clothes ironed and they burned mine on the first day there. And they don’t provide slippers in the rooms.

Amazing view, fancy interior and delicious food

Grande Déception comparé aux années antérieures
Pros:

L'emplacement.
Par contre le comportement de certains salariés n'est pas à la hauteur.
Certaines attitudes sont pour le moins irrationnelles.
L'arrivée et l'accueil à l'hôtel ressemblent à celles d'un hôtel bas de gamme.
Pas de pot d'accueil....
On oublie de prévenir le client lorsque la chambre est disponible.....
Le management est à revoir entièrement.

Cons:

Beaucoup de choses .
L'hôtel se dégrade....
Le client n'est pas considéré !!
Il semble que :faire rentrer de l'argent ne soit que l'ultime objectif !!!

Für den hohen Preis nicht nochmal
Pros:

Die Lage war besonders schön, direkt am feinen Strand. Das Zimmer war modern eingerichtet mit einem großen Bett, Klimaanlage und einem schönen Bad. Die Angestellten waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Besonders möchte ich den Security Mann und den Gärtner hervorheben, die wirklich sehr sehr aufmerksam und freundlich waren.
Auch das Frühstück mit frisch zubereiteten Speisen aus der Karte waren gut.
Auch das es neben dem Pool noch 2 Whirlpools gab, fanden wir besonders schön.

Cons:

Es gab viel zu wenig Ablagen und Platz für die Koffer. Es gab nur 2 Kleiderhaken im offenen Kleiderschrank. Aufhängemöglichkeiten für die nassen Badesachen auf der Terrasse haben komplett gefehlt.
Das Servicepersonal war zwar freundlich, aber sie arbeitet oft ineffizient und so dauerte es schon mal eine halbe Stunde bis man sein Getränk bekam. Das Essen dauerte oft eine Stunde bis es uns erreichte. Leider bekam ich am letzten Tag eine Lebensmittelvergiftung und da wir an diesem Tag nur dort frühstückten und zu Abend gegessen haben und es in der Nacht davor mehrere Stromausfälle gab, kann ich es nur von dort gehabt haben.
Des Weiteren ist vorallem am Wochenende das Restaurant und der Poolbesuch von externen Gästen, die wie wild Fotoshootings machen, besucht.

Insgesamt würden wir das LalaGalu nicht nochmal besuchen, da wir für den hohen Preis besseres erwarten.

Pros:

The view from the restaurant is amazing

Cons:

The aircon in my room on the last day was noisy, unfortunately maintenance wasn't able to fix it. Didn't sleep well that night. Also had a monkey jump in and unfortunately wasn't able to enjoy the veranda space. Staff was also not very responsible on the first day I checked in. Made it hard to settle in

Średnia jakość do ceny
Pros:

Piękna plaża, wysoki standard domku, miły Pan w recepcji

Cons:

1) jako jedyne miejsce w którym jedliśmy w Afryce jest doliczany % na kelnerów. Nie wspominający o tym , że mieszamy w hotelu i takie rzeczy powinny być wliczone w cenę (która jest wysoka) pobytu. Kelnerzy są naprawdę wyjątkowo nieogarnięci - ci który nas obsługiwali niebieli mówić po angielsku, 2 razy pomylili dania, czas oczekiwania to ok 1h przy małym ruchu! Jest to bardzo irytujące.
2) nocleg ze śniadaniem (również nie tanim). Poprosiliśmy o lunch boxa, gdyż lot był bardzo wcześnie rano. Co dostaliśmy? Sok, pomarańcze i ciastko (w załączniku) . Nie oddaje to nawet połowy wartości śniadania. W hotelu, gdzie za nocleg płaciliśmy 2 razy mniej lunch box obejmował 2 kanapki, jogurt, napój, owoc i 2 soki na osobę.

It was a beautiful stay with clean rooms and kind staff. I’ll definitely recommend it everything felt perfect.”
Pros:

I had the most beautiful stay at this beach hotel 🌊✨ The view alone was breathtaking, and everything felt so calm and relaxing. The pool area was super cute, and the jacuzzi made it even more perfect for unwinding.

Cons:

I didn’t find anything to dislike everything was amazing and such kind, welcoming staff. It was a perfect stay.
