Csodás, felejthetetlen, mindenkinek ajánljuk!!!

10.0

Csodás helyen fekszik, az óceán mellett, mesés környezetben, mindent kielégítő bungalóban laktunk, ahol mindennap takarítottak, tisztaság rend volt. Az ételek a reggelitől a vacsoráig finomak változatosak, és homemade készültek. A medence a pálmafák ölelésében fekszik, tiszta vizű, körülötte kényelmes nyugágyakon pihenhettünk. Az óceán parton is fedett ágyakon lehet csodálni a fehér homokos partot és a végtelen óceánt! A személyzet nagyon barátságos, mosolygósak, mindenben a rendelkezésünkre álltak. Rendezetek grillpartit kihelyezték az asztalokat a partra, hangulatos zene és tánc mellett élvezhettük a vacsorát, és akinek kedve volt bekapcsolódhatott a helyiek táncába. Szívből ajánlom mindenkinek ezt a gyönyörű szép, kedves helyet, aki pihenésre és csodás környezetre vágyik. Köszönjük még egyszer Pongwe Bay Resort a felejhetetlen üdülést! Emese és László

We had a wonderful stay, and the staff were exceptionally kind and welcoming throughout our visit.

10.0

The beach was exceptionally clean, making it a wonderful place to relax, watch the sunset, and take leisurely strolls along the shore. I found the atmosphere peaceful and inviting. Breakfast was served efficiently and tasted great, offering a pleasant start to the day. The main dinner menu was impressive as well, with a variety of delicious options that made the evening meal thoroughly enjoyable. Overall, the experience was memorable and left me looking forward to returning.

The WIFI was a big issue for me and my family, we had to complain several times but unfortunately it was not resolved.

Anche poco solo 5 stelle...

10.0

Una struttura eco-luxury che punta alla clientela anziché alla quantità e fin dal primo minuto ci siamo sentiti a casa, vuoi perché è un resort con prese italiane, bidet ed altre cose che solo in Italia abbiamo, ma anche perché il simpaticissimo direttore Mattia (italiano) si è dimostrato fin da subito disponibile e cortese accogliendoci di persona e mostrandoci un po' il tutto. Vi si può praticare GRATIS canoing e stand-up paddle, palestra ed ha un pontile sul mare dove vivere emozioni uniche. Qui si incarna proprio la filosofia locale del "pole-pole" ovvero piano-piano, senza fretta. Un'atmosfera di relax e comfort che non ha nulla da invidiare ai paradisi più citati. E poi un applauso allo staff intero, partire dal direttore, sempre presente e disponibile, fino allo staff intero, instancabile, che ci ha donato sempre un sorriso nonostante la poca comprensione della lingua. Complimenti! P.S: mi hanno fatto ricredere anche sulla cucina Swahili durante una serata show a tema Masaai (ogni settimana una serata spettacolare e diversa!)...troppo buona!

Niente.

-Personnel au petit soin, -endroit magnifique malgré les marées, -plages et jardins propre nettoyé chaque jour, - magnifique pontons pour repas du soir ou juste l'apéro avec zone kayak -nourriture excellente à la carte, -super calme et immersif avec les prestations d'un 5* (4*+), -service d'excursions à l'hôtel, -ayant l'avion tard le soir ils nous ont laissé la chambre jusqu'à notre départ -La sécurité de l'établissement est top tant au niveau de l'environnement que la sécurité personnel ( j'ai eu besoin d'un médecin ...il est venu directement à la chambre )

-Il n'y a pas d'armoires dans la chambre ( la 116 en tout cas ) juste une étagère assez petite pour 4 => vous laisser donc vos habits dans la valises -Les prix des boissons sont un peu haut ... mais bon on est en vacances - WiFi qui rame un peu

Oltre ogni aspettativa!

10.0

Questo è un paradiso, non un resort. Dire che tutto fosse eccezionale forse non basta. Complimenti vivissimi per tutto: esteticamente meraviglioso, personale accogliente, gentile e preparato a tutto, servizi eccellenti, struttura con accesso diretto alla spiaggia, colazione eccezionale, camera stupenda (con il bidet!)... Speriamo di tornarci presto!
