    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Bamboo Village Resort, especially the spacious double room with a beautiful garden view. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly, always ready to assist. The delightful peacocks wandering around added to the charm of the resort.

    Wi-Fi was unreliable.

    charming hut-like accommodations
    beautiful park views

    short strolls to local markets and serene park views

    Staying at this resort was a treat, being just a few steps from a couple of delightful restaurants and only 1 km from the beautiful Bijilo Forest Park made walking around such an enjoyable experience. the warm staff and charming hut-like accommodations added to the relaxing vibe during my weekend getaway.

    beautiful style
    lovely ambiance

    worn mattresses
    unreliable wi-fi
    billing issues

    The resort's location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach. My room, a Double Room with Pool View, had a beautiful African style that made my stay feel unique. The pool area looked stunning at night, lit up beautifully, creating a lovely ambiance. Breakfast offered a variety of options, although I wished there were more choices to enhance the experience. The staff members were all very friendly and approachable, always ready to assist. the beds could use some improvement. the mattresses were quite worn and uncomfortable. the Wi-Fi connection was unreliable, which was a bit frustrating. On my checkout, I found some discrepancies in how my bill was converted to local currency, leaving a bittersweet note at the end of a generally enjoyable stay.

    Chilling in Kololi 🌴

    Super lekker staff! Always smiling and made me feel at home. The brekkie had a nice mix. Just a short walk to the beach and a cute mini-zoo with peacocks strutting around. Enjoyed the relaxed vibes and the comfy bed, just what I needed!

    AC was okay, but could be stronger on the hot days.

    beautiful view
    stunning pool
    good breakfast
    persistent hustlers
    bad wi-fi

    The stay at the resort made my trip enjoyable, especially with the beautiful view from my room. I loved starting my day with a good breakfast while watching various species of birds around the premises. The pool area looked stunning at night, filled with lights, creating a lovely atmosphere. Plus, it was so convenient to be just a short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants. I did face some challenges with persistent hustlers outside the hotel and the occasional bad Wi-Fi connection.

    Had an awesome time at the resort with friends! We loved the pool area and took advantage of the water sports facilities. Close to the beach and the Monkey Forest, the location was perfect for exploring. Breakfast was decent, and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend checking out the billiards at Bamboo Garden Hotel for some fun!

    We did face some challenges with Wi-Fi connectivity during our stay, which was a bit frustrating at times.

    great location
    soft bed

    The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming, making every moment feel like a mini-adventure. The spacious room had a beautiful African style with cooling air conditioning – perfect for unwinding after a sunny day. Being just a few steps from the beach and local restaurants was a delightful bonus!

    Too soft bed.

    pool ambiance
    african style

    The pool area has a nice ambiance, and the lights at night create a stunning atmosphere. The room has a beautiful African style that feels unique and inviting.

    Housekeeping knocked early every morning, disrupting sleep. A broken window in the room raised concerns about responsibility, and the AC struggled to keep the place cool unless the generator was running. The mattresses were uncomfortable, and the beds had awkward wooden perimeters that made getting out a hassle. Breakfast lacked variety, and there were issues with currency conversion rates when paying bills.

    Solo travelers Paradise

    I had a great time at this place,, it was simply lovely listening to the palm leaves rustling and watching the peacocks strut around. The staff were super nice, especially in the kitchen, really made you feel at home and relaxed.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but still entirely acceptable for what you get.
