The staff was amazing and a delight to interact with; however, the facility could use some major upgrades. The owners should invest more into the facilities.

Besvikelse på alla nivåer

Vi hade en väldigt dålig upplevelse på detta hotell. Redan vid ankomsten upptäckte vi insekter i rummet, dörrar som knappt gick att stänga, och en trasig luftkonditionering. Rummet kändes som ett hostel snarare än ett hotell, långt ifrån vad bilderna på hemsidan utlovade. När vi försökte få hjälp från personalen blev vi bemötta med en brist på engagemang och lösningar. Vi tvingades byta rum mitt i natten och blev placerade i ett mindre enkelrum som inte var mycket bättre. Frukosten var undermålig och servicen överlag väldigt dålig. Efter två nätter stod vi inte ut längre och valde att byta hotell. Jag kan inte rekommendera detta boende till någon som förväntar sig en ren och bekväm vistelse med god service.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Just arrived back in cold Denmark - After have stayed at this fantastic UHURU Beach for 2 weeks, everything was exactly as expected. The entire staff, from the maids, waiters, receptionists, to the management, went out of their way to ensure we had a great holiday and we did. The hotel is fantastic, authentic, cosy, everything was nice and clean. The only thing that went a little against was the ugly green plastic sign that hung in the restaurant, it simply didn't fit in. so 5 out of 5 stars from here :) my warmest recommendations
