Recommend it for couples seeking nature and relaxation
One afternoon, we spotted monkeys playing just outside our balcony while we sipped drinks and enjoyed the view. Another nice moment was when we took a trip to the nearby birdwatching platform. The tranquility and the colorful birds were amazing.
It wasn't cheap, but given the ambiance and experience, it was still acceptable.

Great value for money, spacious and clean rooms, beautiful gardens and views. The staff at Captain's restaurant. The location is convenient, close to the beach and in the heart of town.
Breakfast selection could be improved with more variety.

I saw so many amazing creatures at this hotel, like birds, monkeys, lizards, and even tortoises. The restaurant has a beautiful painting of a baobab tree, and the botanical gardens are filled with palms. The pool area is perfect for sunbathing and cooling off.
So charming.
