Lodge in Mali

"The tents with en-suite were great, really generous size and fantastic Mountain View’s"

It is 30 minutes on a very bumpy road from the gate to the national park and we were the only people to pass through each day. This end of the park is forest and scrub so very difficult to see game. There are not many roads in the park and almost no signage.

"It is a unique carribean cottage, which is a little gem. It is a five minute walk to a lovely beach. We cooked in as the kitchen had everything one required. We had our meal out on the verandah next to the kitchen and watched the sunset. Sabina is a wonderful hostess. When we arrived she tried to book as into a restaurant but it was full so she took us to the local supermarket to ensure we would have a good meal. Keith was also really helpful and a great guy. We wished we had booked it for longer."

We liked it all.

"Beautiful place next to a river and the mangrove bushes. The lady at the service desk speaks very good English. That’s was very helpful. The excursion to the monkeys was very fun and the boat tour was beautiful!"

We had a cockroach in our room

"Pristine location, quiet, clean, well designed. Very friendly and helpful staff"

Water heater present, but no warm water in the shower or bath. Bath didn't drain.

"Nalazi se na savrsenom mestu sa jako lepom plazom. Bungalovi su skromni ali ok. Postoji opcija klime ali mora ranije da se najavi! Hrana je izvrsna, imaju jako zanimljive izlete po ok cenama. Odlazak na kornjace ne treba propustiti!!! Osoblje je sjajno."

"Location is wonderful, no need to leave the place, you have treks and walks in the reserve. Food is wonderful also. The attention is great."

"This property was tucked away in the rain forest. Alejandro was exceptional, his knowledge of nature and the beneficial properties of plants from his garden which he had specifically grown was like having a professor with us all the time. He and His wife Christiana also incorporated some of the fruit and vegetables into our stunning breakfasts which were freshly prepared each morning.. Alejandro was incredibly helpful booking restaurants. He always greeted us with a smile and was a perfect host. We felt perfectly relaxed by the end of the stay."

Would have liked more light, and water pressure but to be honest we didn’t mention it to him so he could fix it.

"Tende e struttura principale meravigliosamente arredate, personale super accogliente (un encomio speciale a Zied, grande professionista e gran bella persona), workshop e attività organizzate molto interessanti, a contatto con la natura, cibo servito eccezionale. Attenzione particolare a fare sentire gli ospiti in un ambiente protetto, senza orari prestabiliti per la cena e per la colazione... Un luogo dove prendersi del tempo, dove ascoltare i propri ritmi e staccare dalla frenesia della città."

La piscina era chiusa per manutenzione e non era segnalato da nessuna parte. Il prezzo è davvero molto molto alto, anche per lo standard europeo e nonostante il personale ci abbia omaggiati di alcuni workshop e un massaggio non so se vale veramente quanto costa.

"It was like staying at someone’s home. V good, helpful staff and bed was v comfortable. The food was surprisingly decent for such a small place. Picturesque location even though snow was sparse at the time"

Only gripe might be that the air was quite dry, making sleep quality not so good: might be because of it being a wooden bldg

"Location is wonderful, no need to leave the place, you have treks and walks in the reserve. Food is wonderful also. The attention is great."

"La struttura si trova subito fuori dall’area protetta del Wadi Rum, l’abbiamo scelta per questo per evitare il turismo di massa dei camping dentro l’area protetta. Ci siamo trovati bene! Molto carina la scalinata che porta su una piccola montagna per vedere alba/tramonto con vista sul panorama splendido."

La biancheria del letto non era pulitissima.

"Absolutely beautiful peaceful serene location. We were there Oct and it was cold. It must be amazing in the summer. Some issues with check-in. I guess it was off-season, because there were no staff. We needed to call and there was a small delay getting things organised. The room is huge, aircon/heater works well. Kitchen has most things you need. Fridge, microwave, utensils, etc Ensuite bathroom is large and shower is hot. It suited us perfectly."

10am check out is a bit early. We would have liked to stay around another few hours.

"Staff gentilissimo, ci hanno concesso un early check alle 9.20 appena arrivati da un treno notturno. TOP"

Il bagno senza doccia separata dal wc è un po' scomodo

"Great location and the scenery was beautiful. Very nice and peaceful atmosphere. Located on hill tops and the views were amazing! Perfect if you’re looking for a peaceful getaway surrounded by nature. Surrounded by trees and was entertained by monkeys swinging through the branches. The rooms were also very spacious and allowed a comfortable stay. The staff were very friendly, helpful and efficient and meals were delivered to the room. Staff were very accommodating and overall had a very pleasant and enjoyable stay."

"Vista mare.. svegliarsi e bere un caffè con la tranquillità dell’oceano pacifico"

"Un giardino molto curato, il proprietario molto gentile e disponibile servizio lavanderia perfetto. Hanno cercato di accontentare al meglio le nostre richieste tipo escursioni cene e lavanderia"

Il cibo molto buono ma da perfezionare

"Great for family, location was great all shopping center close by, supermarket and Mall. It felt like home l."

The wifi service wasn't not getting it in the apartment have to go out side.

"Merhaba, anne ve babama hediye olarak almıştım çok memnun kalmışlar çok teşekkür ediyoruz."

"This experience was amazing being in nature while having a luxurious living space is a rare combination moreover we got to enjoy this wonderfull experience without any bugs this is one off the many positive sides of this compound I really recommend it especially for large groups and kids as the environment is kids friendly with emotional support animals like golden retrievers"

Everything was excellent

"water from shower I was the only issue and location is not painted as per the google map"

"Breakfast was fine - just remember to inform the owner the day before if you require breakfast. Ingrid, the co-owner, is a lovely woman and a fine, traditional cook. You will never leave the table hungry! Whilst she can offer beer at an extra cost, we tended to buy our own along with wine to drink at dinner. Again, you will need to inform Ingrid on the day if you require dinner later. There is no choice; me and my wife are both omnivores with no allergies or intollerances, and always liked what she prepared! Our lodge was spacious with a generous deck overlooking the beautiful gardens, and the sea in the background."

A small fridge in our lodge would have been a great bonus - however, we were free to use Ingrid's fridge. The shower was also a little on the dribbly side!

"The surround was lovely and very peaceful. Myself and the entire family sleep comfortably during our stay there. I would recommend to any guest about this property. It was in a safe location as well."

"Un posto spettacolare, immerso nella natura, ideale per chi ama il bird watching: è possibile osservare tantissime specie comodamente dal terrazzo di casa. Un’esperienza davvero unica!"

L’unico suggerimento riguarda la colazione: sarebbe utile poter indicare le proprie preferenze in anticipo, così da evitare sprechi. Per il resto, tutto impeccabile: ottima qualità-prezzo e un soggiorno che consiglio vivamente a chi cerca relax e contatto con la natura.

"Staff gentilissimo, ci hanno concesso un early check alle 9.20 appena arrivati da un treno notturno. TOP"

Il bagno senza doccia separata dal wc è un po' scomodo

"It was quirky and a lovely cosy space to base ourselves. Very close to the airport and next to the harbour in the town. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The loft bed was something different too and cosy and comfortable. The owner was great and friendly. We had absolutely no issues and hope to go again someday."

Nothing

"Ho scoperto un nuovo angolo di paradiso in Montenegro, situato in montagna con una vista mozzafiato che affaccia sul mare e sulla città. La combinazione perfetta tra la tranquillità delle alture e la bellezza del panorama è semplicemente incredibile. I proprietari sono geniali e disponibilissimi, pronti a rendere il soggiorno il più piacevole possibile. La loro ospitalità, la loro attenzione ai dettagli e la loro cucina hanno reso la mia esperienza ancora più speciale. Questo luogo è davvero una bellissima scoperta e non vedo l’ora di tornarci. Consiglio vivamente a chiunque cerchi una fuga rilassante con una vista spettacolare!"

"Haiko is a wonderful person who welcomed us upon arrival at the lodge and provided us with excellent directions to the island's beaches and restaurants/bars. The property is strategically located for reaching both the stunning northern beaches and Arikok National Park. We appreciated the lush vegetation surrounding the lodges and the chirping birds that accompanied us during breakfast. Each lodge respects privacy and is equipped with all the amenities, making it a delightful stay."

Having to leave

"Tutto. Sopratutto vista sul lago e bagno enorme con vasca Idro-massaggio e doccia gigante."

Solo per trovare un difetto a tutti i costi, visto il grande spazio del bagno, sarebbe stata una buona idea mettere anche un bidet

"Great location with a beautiful view on the mountain"

Aucun.

"La camera era molto spaziosa e pulita, e il letto comodo! La posizione molto vicina alla spiaggia e ai ristoranti Novi e Sinbat sono stati incredibilmente gentili e disponibili, abbiamo passato dei giorni meravigliosi Ci hanno aiutato ad organizzare le attività e ci han portato a fare un giro di esplorazione dell’isola! Torneremo!"

Niente

"Aveva tutto il necessario: da una cucina completamente accessoriata alla lavatrice. Camere grandi come anche la casa stessa. Vista sul mare molto bella. Debbie, la padrona di casa, è stata gentilissima e sempre disponibile"

"Lodge was great with comfortable room, excellent buffet dining room facility and small swimming pool to cool off in between excursions. The highlights are the 2-3 times daily excursions which really make the high cost absolutely worth it. Our guide, Alfredo, was amazing, bi-lingual, sensitive to the local environment and even played the guitar over dinner and breakfast!"

Only downside really is the fact that there is only 1 included boat time to the lodge and back from Iquitos. We had to pay $180 extra for a personal boat because LatAm airlines brought our flight forward - not the lodge's fault, but something to look out for.
