Wonderfully Relaxing

We had a very nice stay. The room and everywhere we went in the hotel was very clean. The staff were very kind, helpful, and professional. The outdoor dining was so relaxing, and the view of Lake Victoria was just amazing. I wish we could have stayed longer.

This hotel was wonderful to experience after 20 hours of flying, The pool area situated on the shores of Lake Victoria was beautiful. The food and beverage service outside was prompt and amazingly delicious. The breakfast buffet was over the top amazing. Fresh and so many choices. I always enjoy my Marriott stays but this hotel went over and above to provide personal happy service.

This hotel was unable to work with my schedule adjustments, to be fair I had 2 of them, and they helped me with one. It was difficult for them Im sure, but because of that, I cancelled the entire trip. I did not stay with them, but I sure paid like I did.
