We were transferred to the partner hotel (Dhow Inn) because Makuti Beach Bungalows was closed for 1 month (rainy season) - although neither the hotel nor Expedia told us about that before and we found the partner hotel nearby just by chance... (Expedia - how can you sell hotel rooms for a hotel which is closed during the dates of stay...?) However the alternative place (Dhow Inn) was fine.

Die Unterkunft war super! Außenanlage mega schön zum entspannen, mit mehreren Sitzmöglichkeiten und einer Entspannungsschaukel wo man am liebsten den ganzen Tag liegen und den Blick genießen möchte, Pool ist auch sehr sauber. Zimmer wurden jeden Tag gereinigt.. Super nettes Personal,Entgegenkommend und hilfsbereit. Internet schwächelte ein bisschen aber war auch ganz ok. Würde auf jeden Fall wieder kommen..
