Ishmajoso Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff very helpful, everything very good, even very late arrival was no problem"

Atlantic Lumley Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What stood out was the amazing attention to detail that the Marketing Manager (Iye Mary Kowa) demonstrated. I wanted an Hotel that was on the beach so was somewhat disappointed that the Atlantic Hotel is a beachfront accommodation. Mary however rallied her team and other managers to more than compensate for the hiatus. I would highly recommend this accommodation for its stellar staff and their professionalism. The owners are extremely lucky to have such dedicated staff and whatever they are earning they deserve more. They felt like family at the point I checked out of the Atlantic Hotel.❤️ "
