We are so happy we stayed at Akwaba Lodge. The grounds are well maintained and we had opportunity to walk around and explore. We loved and appreciated the home made meals, breakfast to get us going with fresh homemade bread and jams. Then dinners, with a couple options to choose from, were delicious. We felt like we were part of the family dining there. The room had all we needed and was cleaned daily. We enjoyed some time just sitting at the table outside our room or relaxing in the hammocks. Easy access to the dock for excursions and adventures. Natali and Jean-Christian were helpful with any of our questions, were happy to help plan activities, and even took us on a little jungle tour out back, where we saw sloths, red tree frogs and so many varieties of fruit trees! Would not hesitate to stay here again.

The daily breakfast was appreciated, as was the wonderful dinner. There were 2-3 options each night. Kayaks, SUP, and snorkeling gear were provided Do not hesitate in booking this property.

The good and the bad

The French couple that ran the hotel were super very helpful and very nice. There was no menu there was one choice for dinner and that was a problem for me. The desserts were wonderful. I walk with a cane and going upstairs to the lodge there was no handrail, but they had an employee help me up and handle my luggage. I was eaten up by bug bites and I requested another fan at night time and they were very accommodating.

I loved the privacy and peaceful nature of Akwaba lodge. Natali and family were wonderful hosts. Breakfast was superb! Really enjoyed spending my 30th here. They left me a little birthday gift which was a lovely. It was really clean and comfortable. We even got to go kayaking and paddle boarding with no extra charge! I would stay here again. Highly recommend. Thank you!
