This is the most magical place! When you’re done frolicking in all the different pools nestled amongst the most beautiful gardens and taking advantage of all the unique and free amenities and sites on the property you can have a delicious dinner and cocktails on site. I can’t wait to go back! It’s a rocky ride from Liberia though, make sure you rent a 4x4!
