Very clean and spacious and comfortable rooms. Beautifully decorated. The location is awesome. The hotel garden behind the pool with direction to the beach was beautiful and romantic. It's a perfect place for couples to chill and to have a lovely time. It's a place made in paradise. The beach and the nature scenery at this place is awesome and it feels like in paradise. The hotel owners and staff are very kind and helpful. The hotel restaurant is top of the notch too. I fully can recommend this beautiful place. The hotel restaurant make one of the best pizzas I ever have eaten in Kenya.
