a good stay, but some drawbacks

private deck comfortable chair renovated room sand shade sea view comfortable bed small food portion slow service limited drink variety
I stayed in a beautiful sea view room and it looked amazing! it was recently renovated. i loved the shades of sand and the light wood furniture. the private deck had super comfortable chairs. The shower was also the best i had in africa.
The food portions were small! the quality of the food was also inconsistent. the kitchen didn't cook tasty egg dishes for breakfast. service was very slow, and i had to ask for tea bags and towels each time.
