thoughtful breakfast

outdated room decor

The packed breakfast provided for our early safari was thoughtfully prepared, ensuring we didn't miss out on a meal before our adventure.

While the views and location were beautiful, some aspects of the room showed signs of wear, and I expected a more modern feel based on the photos.

beautiful lake view

thoughtful service

the ekho safari has a lovely spot next to the lake. the sunset views were stunning. the outdoor pool was nice and clean, and it has a children's area too. we enjoyed the buffet for lunch and dinner, quite a good deal. they even prepared a packed breakfast for our early trip, which was super thoughtful.

Be careful with the little bugs around. they can get inside the room if you’re not careful with the door.

beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

I had an incredible stay enjoying the beautiful sunset views right next to the lake while swinging over it. The outdoor swimming pool was pristine and provided a refreshing escape after a day of exploring. I was especially impressed by the buffet for both lunch and dinner, where the variety and quality of the dishes exceeded my expectations!

do recommend 😊❤️

bad smell

ants

the staff was friendly but, honestly, that’s about where the compliments end. my room reeked terribly, and there were ants in the bed! can you believe that? i was absolutely shocked and expected at least a complimentary upgrade to fix it, but that would’ve been too much to ask apparently.

Beautiful views and thoughtful service

I had a lovely stay at this lakeside hotel, where I enjoyed breathtaking sunset views while sitting in the garden or by the clean swimming pool. The staff’s attentiveness was impressive, especially when they prepared a packed breakfast for our early safari, which was right on time. The buffet for lunch and dinner offered a good variety at reasonable prices. One area for improvement would be the outdated air conditioning units in some rooms, which could use an upgrade.
