Basic

Hotel is fine if you’re okay with never being in your room except for sleeping. Guests spend all their time on the beach or in the restaurant. The beach is clean and there are plenty of lounge chairs in the shade. The restaurant serves basically the same menu every day which after two or three days becomes boring. Breakfast is just OK, continental style with no eggs. No real food options within walking distance. Wi-Fi is good in the restaurant but not in the rooms. Be careful with your food bill when you leave. I don’t know if it was by accident or on purpose but I was nearly charged for several meals that were included in the cost of the room. Check your bill carefully. The service people are quite nice. This hotel is all about being on the beach and there are no other frills.

Blue Africa is a quite simple basic hotel. It has a wonderful location just on the beach. Staff is fine, nice and available. Rooms are basic but ok. If you want to spend some days just on the beach and do not want to spent much money it is the ideal place

Ideal for getting away from it all. Very few guest about but plenty of local activity on the beach with the young lads playing football. The actual location is good - plenty of space and high up fron the sea. The hotel food was okay - plenty of fish on offer. I rate the hotel as 2 star.

Blue Africa est un charmant hôtel au bord de l'océan, plein de charme. Ayant parcouru la plage et d'autres hôtels qui la bordent, nous nous sommes félicités de notre choix ! Nous y sommes retournés 2 fois, toujours bien accueillis par Marie-Pierre. Nuit bercée au son du sac et du ressac. C'est un petit coin de paradis !

Nice little hotel when you look for a simple vacation without much comfort. Located directly at the beach, you can hear the sea from your room and go for a swim within 80 meters. Great scenery with the beach, palms, sea etc, definitely worthwhile a visit, especially during sunset! Room very small, not much space for unpacking your stuff or to move. A lot of mosquitos in the room upon my arrival. Sleeping is fine thanks to the mosquito net but mosquitos can enter the room easily because windows and doors do not close properly. Room is only meant for sleeping and showering, very dark inside as well. Bathroom very basic, shower witout partition to rest of bathroom and tapware incomplete. Personally, I did not feel too cozy being in the room/bathroom but normally you do not spend much time there anyway. Wifi good but signal did not cover the range up to my room, surfing only possible in the public area around the restaurant. Nice food with very fair prices, not much variety though (especially if you look for food without meat or fish). Staff always friendly and trying to help, not everybody speaks English. Breakfast is OK, do not expect big variety or a fancy buffet, it is very basic. But too many flies due to missing coverage. Only baguette, jam, butter, milk, coffee, tea, ... If you like a very simple, local, easygoing vacation, this is your place to be, the view and location at the beach is awesome. If you need more comfort, rather look for a different place.

El lugar, cocoteros en frente del mar, la playa,....una maravilla. La habitacion penosa. La cama era de ladrillos que se veian perfectamente, mal acabada. Las mesitas igual, una chapuza. El baño pequeño, losas de diferentes colores, etc. El colchon muy incómodo, se hundia a pesar del somier que tenia. Muchos mosquitos, por mas que se mataban, siempre habian mas, no sabiamos por donde entraban, aunque habían mosquiteras. El desayuno un ENGAÑO. Solo habia pan, mermelada de fresa y de mango. Café soluble con agua caliente. No habia leche ni frutas, ni nada mas. Una vergüenza presentar un desayuno asi. El desayuno estaba incluido en el precio, pero la gente que llevaba varios días alojados, desayunaban fruta y otras cosas que habian comprado por su cuenta.
