Kendwa Rocks Beach Hotel

Kendwa Rocks Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was a great place as a single woman traveling solo. The beaches are beautiful, though if you want a quiet swim go earlier in the day! The food was great and there are plenty of activities during the week. I would definitely stay here again!"
