Book a Room with a View
Several guests mentioned that the views from the rooms were spectacular. Opting for a room with a balcony facing the beach comes highly recommended.
Consider All-Inclusive Packages
Some guests felt that booking an all-inclusive package provided better value for money, especially for those planning to spend most of their time at the hotel.
Be Mindful of Excursion Timing
If you have excursions planned, be prepared for potential delays in service, as some guests experienced longer wait times for meals, even after reminders.
Plan for Beach Chair Availability
Guests reported a daily race for beach chairs, with some visitors reserving them as early as 6 AM. Consider arriving early if you have specific preferences for beach seating.
Be Aware of Local Sellers on the Beach
While the hotel has a beautiful private beach, be prepared for encounters with local sellers. Guests noted that while friendly, the constant selling can become tiring after some time.
Check for Room Location
Some guests found that the mini-suite upgrade did not significantly differ from a normal room unless it was beachfront. Consider this when selecting room types.
Consider All Meal Plans
While some guests enjoyed the variety and quality of food, others found it to be bland and repetitive. Research the meal plans offered to find the best option for your preferences.
Be Prepared for Slow Service
The hotel's pace aligns with the local "pole-pole" mantra, which means "slowly, slowly." Embrace the relaxed atmosphere, but be aware that service may be slower than expected.
Utilize the Private Beach
Take advantage of the hotel's private beach, which offers a beautiful and non-tidal swimming area, allowing for extended water activities.
Engage with the Maasai
While some guests found the Maasai presence bothersome, others appreciated their interactions. Be clear and firm if you prefer not to engage in conversation or purchase their wares.
