"We stayed for four weeks in January 2014. Our experience was mainly positive. It started upon arrival when we saw the bougainvilla paint the outside wall in purple flowers. The walled garden housed a variety of birds such as various types of doves, the splendid sunbird and the beautiful sunbird and two types of flycatchers. We even spotted a Klaas' Cuckoo and a woodpecker here once.
The rooms were spacious, the beds aren't perfect but no worse than an average hotel. We also enjoyed the...

"4 van de 6 slaapplaatsen veel te dun matras, 5 dagen lekkage in de keuken, app. niet schoon bij binnenkomst, lokatie: 40 min. lopen naar strand, gelegen tussen 2 uitbundige moskees en blaffende honden: om 4 uur rechtop in bed, lokale hangout met discussierende mannen over politiek en voetbal op de hoek: lawaaig. App. is exclusief niet aangekondigde kosten electra en wifi: 80 euro voor 3 weken. Tuin: weinig vogels, geen zitplek, dus geen toegevoegde waarde. Volgende keer zeker iets anders"
