Amazing stay! We arrived late at night and were able to check in early for a small extra fee, which was absolutely fantastic. We were greeted with a smile and felt welcome from the very beginning. The staff was always available, friendly, and accommodating. The breakfast and food served were excellent, and it was a pleasure to enjoy our meals here. The hotel offers private sunbeds right by the beach, which made our stay even more comfortable. At night, there was good security, and the guard was both friendly and helpful, giving us an extra sense of safety. The rooms are simple but perfect for our needs. We had a small issue with the air conditioning, but it was fixed immediately. The service was impeccable, and we felt well taken care of throughout our stay. All in all, a fantastic experience – highly recommended!

“Good place but needs to improve on details”
The location to the beach, the quietness and not to touristic. It has potential but it can still improve.

“A spectacular home away from home.”
The staff were friendly and so welcoming. It really felt like home away from home. I immediately felt as though I had known everyone for years. It was also so close to the beach. The rooms were clean and spectacular and the bed was always made up so beautifully. So much effort was put into making my stay enjoyable. It was also comfortable and everything was great! The breakfast was also always amazing and beautiful and the staff were always accommodating, even if I slept late. I would highly recommend this place.

“Beautiful Bahati”
A beautiful villa with amazing staff and delicious breakfast offerings. The villa is a short walk away from the beach and there are many restaurants to choose from upon entering the beach. The staff go out of their way to make sure your stay is a comfortable one and will assist you when needed.

“Most comfortable stay with top-notch breakfast.”
Bahati Villa was wonderful from the moment we arrived. They have very clean rooms with A/C and the staff are very friendly. Their private beach area is very comfortable and provides some escape from the loads of people trying to sell you something on the beach. Although the rooms are not on the beachfront, they are shaded by a beautiful tree which has many birds, bats and thick-tailed bushbabies. Our absolutely highlight here is the breakfast which is amazing!

“Quiet and comfy. The staff very involved in the business and customers comfort.”
They gave us a better room than the one we booked, and it was much appreciated. The several breakfast options were great, as also the place to eat and the chill area in front of the beach.
