Nice and beautiful place to stay for those who want to escape Accra for a few days and spend some time in nature. The rooms are spacious and clean, with a lovely view on Aburi's hills and forest (and the hotel's pool).  

I was very warmly welcomed by the owner and staff, who made me feel at home, 
and made me decide to extend my stay. 

There are many things to visit around in the area, including the Botanical Gardens (10 mins), and waterfalls.

Beautiful place in the nature, warm and welcoming

Quiet and neat place to relax. Food is also okay. Not too far away from the Aburi township. Staff are very friendly. Didn’t book a room cos I didn’t stay for long but the prices of the rooms are affordable 

Nice 

Excellent decorations, landscaping, rates, views, people, location, well worth the money. $20 to$60 USD, flat screen TVs, imported mattresses and pillows, super nice, owner operator. They have and can get everything you might need. We are from USA and will definitely stay here again. Loved it! 

Don't miss it very good

What a beautyfull place. So relaxing. Altough the very friendly owner Bas still building it is a quiet place to be. The rooms are nice and cool. There is a nice view over the mountains. The Pool is fine. You can escape the hectic of Ghana. 

Very nice

I spent some fantastic days at this beautiful and quiet place where you can relax from the busy, hectic city life in Ghana. I would recommend to pay a visit to the wonderful botanical garden in Aburi. Also a visit to the art craft shops are very interesting to admire the skill in handmade items for affordable prices.

Sweet Mother is fantastic!

When we arrived, we were offered a different chalet because the one we booked for three days had a reservation already. So, they gave us the two room chalet for the same price. When we entered the chalet, the sink was leaking and the television didn’t work. They switched us to a room in the main building. The room was comfortable and they brought us a kettle to warm water for bathing. The website said they have a restaurant but we were told there was no restaurant but they could order food from town. Another person told us that there is a restaurant but the matron was out sick. Anyway, it was ok but nothing like what I expected. I was a little disappointed.

We arrived on the 4th of April, a day after they had a party, which meant for some reason we couldn't have a cooked dinner at the resort. The owner was nice enough to drive my partner to a nearby place to buy some food. When ordering food for a certain time, we quickly found you have to order the food two hours before you actually think you'll be ready to it. As most times they would start cooking at the point when you said you wanted the food to be ready. 

Our room had no light switch in the main room or a sink to brush our teeth so we had to do it all in the shower. Also there were no locks on the toilet or wash room. 

The pool was super nice and the outside was real pretty. To be fair on tripsadvisor they don't have any pictures of the inside so that should have been a clue. 

Okayish ... with room for improvement

The place has great potential with its lush hillside setting, grass, wonderful coconut and banana trees and views. And the staff (apparently a family in residence) are quite kind. I suspect the owners and regular operators were away and had some sort of house-sitters in charge. It was clean, mostly, and not overwhelmed with mildew as seems common throughout the ubiquitous humidity of Ghana. But the room lacked a few basics like: A sink -- though I hasten to add it did not literally lack a sink. Instead, a stylish glass one was in the room. It just didn't have any water coming in, and the drain hose led to the floor. I don't mean a drain in the floor; I mean the floor. Small point: The doors to the toilet and shower didn't really close and stay shut. The lighting was dim in the main room. We saw other rooms but they were even more dim and dingy and poorly ventilated. Public areas, again, with great potential, were in disarray and the dining and drinks areas weren't open, though I suppose a guest could set oneself up there on a byob basis. The upper floor and some lower-level rooms appeared to be under construction, as is common in all types of buildings in Ghana. Also, the staff didn't know some basic information about the area, such as the entrance fee to the botanical garden. One of the staff/resident family had a sound system blaring well into the evening but wasn't around; we wandered in and turned it down ourselves. The toilet flushed but wouldn't stop running. In all, it felt less like an operating property than wandering into a former hotel now occupied by a friendly family but one unschooled in the hospitality industry. They did make us a nice basic breakfast the next morning for 10 cedi per person. In all, enormous potential but don't expect much. Then again, what do you expect for the equivalent of $17 a night? I hope the best for the folks who run it, and I suspect it'll return to the state some other reviews describe, but it's not there yet.
