Pros (+) Loved the baobab trees, monkeys, and pleasant staff. It was nice to have a pool in the heat. The massage therapist, Maria, was very good.
Cons (-) The air conditioning would go off with the power served and then flash and beeps 15. Then go back in. This repeated all night at least 6 times. They tried to repair but it did it again on our third night. The bed mattress is very hard.

Pros (+) The inside of the resort is perfect, high quality architecture, great bar with tasty coctails, delicious food, everything super clean. Staying under the thousand years old baobab was an unforgottable experience.
Cons (-) The access road, the isolation: nowhere to go except to the beach.

Pros (+) Incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful location, the restaurant built onto the ancient Baobab tree was awesome! The nearby beach is breathtaking. Couldn’t be happier with it stay here, the staff really made us feel like we at home. Eric the owner was super helpful too, providing us with a driver for the day and a contract for a day safari. Would love to return one day
Cons (-) There were no monkeys when we stayed sadly
