Simple but spacious and clean rooms, with comfortable bed and good wifi. Large modern pool area, fantastic to cool down after a day out on safari.
The included breakfast was plenty and very delicious and changed from day to day.
Unfortunately, the chef for dinner was not available when we were there but we found good and cheap dinner locations just minutes away.

Wonderful staff
The staff were excellent and went out of their way to ensure we were fed on late arrival. Breakfast was very good.
But you pay for what you get. This is a 2 star hotel.
We loved our time here whilst visiting for safari and we couldn’t recommend staying here enough. The accommodation is very clean and comfortable and the hosts made the experience extra special, everyone was so friendly! Food was delicious and plentiful. We were very grateful to find this hidden gem! Thank you to the hosts, we hope to come back to visit one day!
