Campgrounds

"What was most striking was the communal spirit which was celebrated among the guests. You're not just staying in your hut, you are having breakfast and dinner together and exchange experiences. The octopus dish for dinner was fantastic. Coffee is readily available. Water, beer, and soft drinks for sale at fair prices. While the owner was away, the temporary host did a great job managing and making everyone feel included and informed. There is a viewing platform of the Pico. The beach is crossed by a river from where you also have a great vantage point. Needs to be low tide to cross. Love the outdoor showers. Thanks to solar panels, there is always electricity. Good distance to Porto Alegre for visiting Ilhéu das Rolas as a day trip. They can arrange for a hike to the base of the Pico."

For a couple like us, there is only the choice between a two person hut without attached bathroom or a four person hut with. We really wanted to have an attached toilet, so we had to book a four person hut which is of course quite more expensive. It would have been ideal to have a two person hut, small is OK, but with attached toilet. Shower wouldn't even be necessary, because we preferred the outdoor showers. Just a toilet and small sink would be enough. There is internet, but it's less reliable than other reviewers painted it to be. It's one small pocket router for the whole premise. During the day it was in the main hut and at night in guest huts, but never close enough to our hut. Still for São Tomé and far away from any towns, it was quite decent.

"Staff was unbelievably lovely and flexible. They fruit and vegetables where homegrown and super tasty. And the sunset stunning! We would have loved to stay longer."

"This was a very comfortable modern house like a tiny home but felt spacious. Kids loved sleeping in the loft. It was warm and inviting. The setting is lovely on a river with some small falls. I imagine Iin summer the outdoor bbq area would be very nice. We had a very comfortable night. Free onsen was nice although glad no one else there as it was tiny."

The location is quite far from the train so you need a taxi. The taxi drivers seemed put out to go there she it cost us about $40. Also far from a shop. So bring food or have a car. I like an onsen but it was very tiny. It would be nicer outdoors by the river.

"The van was super great and exactly what you needed for camping!"

"location very convenient. can you prepare meal or used at affordable restaurant at city 600 metres away."

The place is convenient to every type of visitors.

"Camping felt private and secure right in town - convenient for walking to dinner and groceries. Cooking and common spaces were lovely and certainly better than expected for the price!"

"Close to the beach. Lovely house. Camping with good facilities."

The train every half an hour on 2 meters from our windows. The fence is not so high (safety?!). Also the busy road between the camping and the beach is dangerous. Lots of kids crossing that road. A tunnel would be solution.

"Très simple, très naturel,avec beaucoup de bon coeur l'accueil de ce Lodge qui appartient à une école.Le directeur de l'école m'a servi généreusement de taxi plusieurs fois pour me rendre à Levingstone,au Chutes Victoria et j'ai fait un safari avec lui dans son 4×4 pour un prix avantageux."

Le village de Simonga est très authentique de la pauvreté zambienne sans misère,ici ils sont heureux avec très peu. Pour moi habitué à un peu d'abondance il manque beaucoup ici sans aller à la ville.

"Excellent accommodation, beyond anything I've seen so far. Exceptional friendliness, professional approach, delicious food, cleanliness and a great location for a safari."

"The villa setup, the swimming pools (especially for our daughters), being 7 to 10 minutes walk from the beach and the shops, but especially the owners (Mr. & Mrs. Moorghen). They are exceptional hosts and everything in their bungalow is touched with thoughtfulness. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality. In essence with a family of 8, the four room villa was ideal and cosy. A home away from home comfy feel."

I asked my daughters. One thing they did not like... Time to go back home. 😛

"Excellent staff and service; excellent room that overlooks Lake Victoria."

"It was an incredible experience! Isuru was so kind with us, he took care of us since the first moment, the communication was great! If you want to get a very local and authentic experience, this is your place. Isuru knows a lot about nature and his country and we talked about so many things, we learned so much from Sri Lanka and its culture. The food was amazing, everything was delicious, I would say that is the best food we’ve tasted in Sri Lanka (rice and curry🤤). The location was perfect, so quite, not so far from the national park, also Isuru has a Tuktuk. You would be surrounded by nature in every moment, see the fireflies during the night.. ✨also you could have a walk next to the river and see a lot of birds ! The bed was so comfortable and the airco was perfect! Everything was so clean. The safari that we booked with him was amazing, i totally recommend it. It was one of the best experiences that I lived in my life🐘"
