What's nearby

  • This show was awesome! After the initiation you are welcomed into the village and go threw different stations learning about the culture and then you get a performance show and dinner. Definitely recommend and reservations book way out, so book early! And tip: ask for Mark to be your driver... Seriously I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard

Linda

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
pro's: everything was very clean and staff were very friendly. Kitchen was well equipped. Location is good. Cons: my room (and other rooms will be different) was tiny... advertised as 12m2, it was 1.5 x 4 m, who knows how they got a bunk bed in. The window was difficult to open and close and the rubbish bins and bags were right below it. My room was super noisy as it was right by reception and staff talked loudly to each other until 11pm for 2 nights of the three.
