"Prodloužený pobyt"

10.0

Pobyt jsme si prodlužovali a popis jsme psali již v předchozí recenzi. Pokud znovu pojedeme na Mafia Island, tak rozhodně sem. Přátelé, krásné místo, zážitky z potápění, nádherná pláž. Nestihli jsme objevit celé okolí.

"Very Good"

7.0

Le cadre et le village à proximité dans la forêt. Les coraux de la sortie snorkelling sont magnifiques.

La nourriture du restaurant qui est plus proche d’une cantine.

"Loved our stay, would recommend"

10.0

Perfect location for diving, super relaxing, tasty food, daily activity options

Depending on the tides, some dives get back later (leave 10am, back ~2pm). And if busy season the kitchen may take awhile to prepare lunch, so plan accordingly :)

"Der perfekte Ort, um Aktivitäten und Ruhe miteinander zu verbinden"

10.0

Die Anlage liegt wunderbar ruhig direkt am Strand und trotzdem sehr nah am Dorf. Das Personal war äußerst zuvorkommend, insbesondere Simon, der Manager. Er hat es möglich gemacht, dass wir ein Upgrade bekommen konnten in einen der Bungalows. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, würden jederzeit wiederkommen .

"Teleurstellend"

6.0

Het terras voor het huis en de vriendelijkheid van het personeel

Het eten, er is niets in de buurt, duur om in een hotel in het reserve te zitten. Veel gestoken door ik denk sandflies
