    The pool was mind-blowing and the lady staff was super friendly and extremely helpful. The whole place was jaw-droppingly beautiful with lush greenery, palm trees, and adorable monkeys visiting in the morning. The beach was just a short walk away. The staff, from waiters to security guards, were all superb, making us feel like friends for life. The food was absolutely delicious, tempting us to come back just for that. Our cottage was a delight, with a comfortable bed, great bathroom, and a kitchen. The swimming pool was clean and heavenly, and we even got to admire the cute cats around. The owner and staff were all super nice, and everything from the room to the restaurant was perfect. The breakfast was fresh and delightful. We can't wait to come back and experience this special place all over again.

    The hotel offers an outdoor pool, perfect for cooling off on a hot day. It felt like diving into an oasis, with crystal-clear water and a serene atmosphere.

    I had the most amazing time at African Dream Cottages! The pool was incredibly clean and refreshing, and the cottage itself was even more beautiful than the pictures. The wifi was fast and reliable, and the staff, especially Boniface and Joan, were so friendly and helpful. I also loved the peaceful and safe atmosphere of the place. I highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation.

    We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was excellent and the hotel facilities were well-maintained. We appreciated the fact that the hotel had parking, making it easier for us to travel around this city. The hotel is close enough to the beach, so we didn't have to go too far to enjoy the warm sand and cool water. The staff were incredible, always helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was fresh and delicious!

    Nothing for us.

    I recently had a fantastic stay at a charming hotel in a beautiful location. The value for money was outstanding, with affordable prices that didn't compromise on quality or service. The attention to detail throughout the hotel was impressive, from the well-maintained rooms to the lush gardens surrounding the property. I particularly loved the short walk through a little path leading to the central pool, which added to the tranquil atmosphere. The location of the hotel was excellent, being central and near all the amenities one could need, including supermarkets, boutiques, and night clubs. It was also just a short walking distance to the beach, allowing for easy access to sun, sand, and sea. All in all, my stay was extremely relaxing, thanks to the great service, friendly staff, and comfortable rooms.

    All was more than okay; an absolutely perfect stay.

    Great location and friendly staff. the swimming pool was refreshing and well kept. Nice to have a supermarket nearby to stock up on snacks. a decent spot for a city trip.

    The breakfast was limited to just pancakes or eggs with meat, which was a bit disappointing. the Wi-Fi was non-existent in the rooms and very spotty in the public areas.

    The staff at this amazing place are simply mind-blowing, with their kindness and friendly demeanor. The kitchen serves up a jaw-droppingly delicious dinner every time. The pool is super clean and the perfect spot to relax at sunset. The cottages are cozy and nicely decorated. Safety is a priority, with the staff accompanying us to the beach and town center. The owner is friendly and treats her staff with respect. For budget travelers, this is the absolute best option in town.

    Spent a great new year at a peaceful hotel. Loved the pool and the helpful staff, who were always available. Location was stunning, with many good restaurants in walking distance and a supermarket nearby. enjoyed the beautiful rooms, which were well-equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

    Though the hotel was peaceful, some unwanted animal visitors interrupted meals. Breakfast was limited to a few options, and the WiFi was poor throughout the property.

    The accommodation is located in an area with many supermarkets, making shopping easy for guests. It is also close to the beach and a nearby island, providing good access to water activities. The rooms are comfortable and the bathrooms and towels are kept clean. The staff is friendly, and the breakfast is sufficient.

    The hotel does not have reliable access to Wi-Fi, which may be inconvenient for those who need it for work or personal reasons.

    The cottages were well-furnished and had a fully equipped kitchen, making it convenient for guests. The pool was clean and well-maintained, providing a great place to relax. the breakfast and dinner at the hotel were delicious and reasonably priced, with fresh ingredients used in the preparation.

    The pathway from the hotel to the main road was a bit dangerous and required an escort for safety. However, this was ensured by the staff.
