Liked: beautiful grounds, nice private beach and lots of activities to do with kids. We also had a villa with private pool which was perfect and great sized room for 4 of us (2 teenagers). Didn’t like: main pool felt a little like ‘a Butlins camp’ (no offense but obviously expect more for 5 star). Fully inclusive food and drink really mediocre. Staff were hit and miss with some lovely members whilst others looked miserable. Also would have loved a peaceful walk on the beautiful beach but you are bombarded by Maasai as soon as you take one step on there which is such a shame (not hotels fault of course!) Overall a lovely hotel but it’s not quite a 5 star for me but depends what you are looking for. Plenty of people looked like they were having wonderful time :)

Lovely staff couldn’t do enough for you, good food could do with some more protein for vegetarians, could do with some more staff in the restaurants. The tribes on the beach are annoying security need to warn them away more.

For the most part, my experience was great. The only absolute disappointment was the gym. Very small, unsuitable for resort of this size. All inclusive option was also not so glamorous as all the restaurants were open only at certain times. For our entire stay, only one place was open for breakfast and two to three for dinner. But selection was good, although same or very similar every day.
