"One thing very unique to this property it the entertainment (animation) team. Those guys, are over and beyond anyone expectations and makes this location a unique destination. They've activities all day, from dancing, aquarobics and live acrobatic and music shows, and all that for FREE, at no extra cost ... amazing. Also, location is within walking distance to a lot of attractions and dining places.
However, the property need to improve on the following:
1) a face lift, a bit of renovation
2)...

"This lodge was just perfect for my solo weekend. The team are so helpful and friendly and everything was organised so well. The pool is a dream as well as the seating areas and so much thought has been put into the design. "
"AVOID, stay away! Firstly the location is wrong, 30 USD to get to the next town by taxi. The Road to the hotel is terrible, extremely bumpy. Beds are hard. This is not a four star hotel. Food is bad. Save your money, go somewhere else."
"Positivo il soggiorno stile africano, poco chiari riguardo al pagamento della cena. Meglio accordarsi prima o andare a fare la spesa con loro se si ha tempo. Una volta se ne è andata la luce ma dopo poco è ritornata, hanno attivato il gruppo elettrogeno probabilmente che faceva rumore dal mio appartamento. Dopo un' ora ha smesso."

"Check in went poorly as there was some confusion regarding a change in meal options. Then the room we were put in had a leaky A/C unit so we were moved to another room which we then had problems with the door lock. I have to say that with all of these minor problems they were rectified very quickly. I was surprised to find there was no refrigerator in the rooms but I should have checked the facilities provided. I dont know why they provide a tv when there in nothing you can watch on it and not even a communal tv where sports can be watched. We had opted for the dinner option for the first evening and on going to the restaurant where dinner was being served found a very limited variety of dishes available. After serving myself I returned to my table and started to eat only to find everything was cold. I asked my wife how her food was and she said hers was also cold. I then went and checked the baine maries and found they were all cold, well definitely not anywhere close to the 60 degrees Celsius they should be. I then complained about the cold food and pointed out that the possibility of food poisoning using cold baine maries was a real possibility. They then took my plate of food away and about five minutes later returned with the same plate of food and indicated it had been reheated, again a perfect recipe for food poisoning, but it was actually cold. I then left the restaurant and went to reception asking to see a supervisor or even better the manager. Not good
