"Had a great stay, loved the lunches and dinners. The chef had a dinner for me ready upon my very late arrival of 11 pm, which was very nice
Friendly staff, quiet lovely beach, enjoyed the sail boat ride. Thank you!"
"Prime location
Lovely views,
I got the swim up pool room, I think the rooms are slightly small, they need to work on the bacon and sausages they serve for breakfast but everything else about the hotel and my stay was perfect.. "
"Quieter and less expensive than others in the area but with easy access to other properties down the beach for food, etc. Able to book us transportation to other activities on request."
"We had a lovely stay here! The staff were so kind and friendly. I stayed here for my birthday and they made it very special. The restaurant also has a good range of food and drinks. It is located right on the beach so a great location. Would definitely recommend "
"I do NOT recommend that hotel. Old style boxxy hotel from the 1980'. Super small bathroom and shower with a plastic curtain. For the toilet, you litterally stand in the shower : unacceptable. Ok it is clean and there is a small unattractive pool. It is worth no more than 50 €, a sort of ok 2 stars lodge. No Zanzibar dream at all.
Breafast is ok.
Hotel is situated in second line from the beautiful beach. There are much nicer hotels ON the beach.
Without a car, you are trapped in an ugly back...
"The location of the hotel is great because it is on the beachfront. On arrival I was checked into the incorrect room and the hotel only realized 2 nights after, they did offer me free dinner for 2 nights to make up for the misunderstanding. The hotel is clean. The food at the restaurant is not the greatest for the money you pay and the waitron staff need to learn more English in order to communicate better with no misunderstanding. Over all stay was pleasurable."
"The hotel is OK. If you shower everything is going to get wet in the bathroom. Very varying access to electricity. The food was good and service was good. But a man that said he owned the place kept smoking marijuana outside our window, so that was very uncomfortable. It smells a lot and he would not stop even though we asked nicely. "

10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely serene with breathtaking views.
Breakfast was excellent, with plenty of local fruits and vegetables to enjoy.
The staff are very friendly and accommodating.
Rooms are cleaned twice daily; however, this is when money went missing from our bedside during the evening service. Unfortunately, this can happen if valuables are left out. I believe having notice boards reminding guests to be vigilant would be helpful.

"Our stay at the Bamboo Hotel was truly wonderful. The grounds are absolutely stunning, and the unique architectural design—where you can gaze out at the ocean as if it’s a living, breathing TV screen—is incredibly relaxing.
The rooms were spotless and clearly well-maintained; the staff does an exceptional job keeping everything clean and comfortable. Service was excellent—everyone was warm, attentive, and eager to make our stay enjoyable.
The food was delicious, and we especially loved the fresh juices—they were refreshing and full of flavor.
Overall, we highly recommend the Bamboo Hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway surrounded by beautiful waters and top-notch service."
"Loved the property, its location by the sea its personel and owners. The restaurant with italian food. Service great, special mention Colin in the receprion, Joy in the restaurant and Leila who cleaned my room.
Did not like the floors in the bathroom as very alippery when wet."
"This small hotel is beautiful. The rooms are wonderful and very well stocked with all you need.
The staff are very helpful and all spoke very good English.
The food was amazing and very tasty, good selection of veggie stuff for the wife too.
Overall just a great stay."
