Guesthouses in Benin

"I needed a break from the chaos of the city and some quality time with nature, and this house in Butuceni was exactly what I was looking for! I left feeling refreshed, renewed, and ready to take on the world again. If you're looking for a place to reconnect with nature and your soul, look no further."

All was perfect.

"Very cozy house with a beautiful garden! Everything was clean and we got a lot of tips from the landlord."

It is very cold and badly soundproofed, but this is of course normal for an old creole house. It is a bit irritating and might feel uncomfortable that the guardian sleeps on the veranda (we were later told that he just fell asleep there accidentally, which was certainly not the case), but don't be afraid of him.

"Super clean, really nice staff, very friendly and accommodating (they held our bags for us in the morning and let us charge our phones after check out in the front lobby). Bath tub and shower were really nice too, very spacious! And the balcony was cute. Hotel is very close to the lake side pier so was good for a walk after dinner. Lots of bike rental shops in the area and really close to the tourist shuttle stop for Shuishe Visitor Center. Note that the front desk closes at 18:00 so it’s important to be there before it closes."

The breakfast was quite simple but still appreciated.

"Patricia met us when we arrived and gave us the lowdown on how to enter our room and gave us some suggestions for places to eat, which were delicious! The room was cozy and nicer than I had imagined since it was in the basement. All in all, I would recommend this room to friends."

There was nothing we didn't like. If it had been raining, we might have a different opinion!

"Der Vermieter hat alles getan, was er noch tun konnte, um seine Zusagen noch zu erfüllen."

Lautstärke, Bad liegt außerhalb der Wohnung...

"Úžasný pan a paní domácí. ❤️ Moc ochotní lidé. Stále k dispozici. Kdybych se vrátila do Ulcinj, určitě bych toto ubytování zvolila znovu. Chybí mi ty naše snídaně na hezké terase. Měli jsme slunný pokojík, na pravé straně, směr k ulici."

Měli jsme to trochu dál od Velké pláže a začátek Velké pláže je přeplněný turisty, tak jsme museli každý den jezdit autem. Ke starému městu také daleko. Ale bylo to blízko k hezké skalnaté části a živé ulici na začátku Velké pláže. V ubytování mne překvapila společná kuchyň, ale nakonec jsme si zvykli a byla možnost poznat i naše sousedy, hehe. 👍🏻

"Cosy and clean room. A garage for save storage of bicycles. Very kind welcome with some chocolats."

Nothing to dislike

"Nice view of the town from the room. The staff was very helpful and provided prompt assistance. She carefully folded our clothes after doing laundry (laundry costs 5JD for 6kg). The bed and blankets are very cozy and spacious. They have a parking lot."

The room is quite small, no space to open our 2 suitcases. There were frequent electricity cuts which last 5 seconds. Very weak wifi signal.

"Very close to the North Cliffs and beach access, but the rooms were tucked in and private, very peaceful and close to all amenities along the cliffs."

Nothing wrong with the property itself, some loud construction next door but they were building the house very fast so it shouldn't be too much of a problem in the future.

"The establishment is still in its early stages. The host arrived at the airport to welcome us and guide us to the location. We were their first guests. The place exudes a homely feeling with its neat design and beautiful interior decorations. The place has a small swimming pool, which elevates the ambiance altogether. The host and the staff are very kind and helpful, making our stay very pleasant."

There was nothing to complain about. Everything was perfect :)

"Well kept clean house. The owner tried really hard to reach Western standard of living (limited by being in the Solomons of course). Solar hot water, large fridge/freezer of 300L plus. 24 hour electricity. No aircon but the house is extremely well ventilated. Open plan big kitchen, 4 burner gas hob, huge lounge with modern couches. 2 rooms + 1 bathroom on each side of the lounge, so totally 4 rooms and 2 bathrooms. Rooms are spacious, clean. Hot water shower! I wish I could share photos but booking.com doesn't have upload button."

1. The cost is per person, not per room, but somehow not clearly displayed on booking.com. 2. This is an isolated house on the water edge, private and peaceful, but 40min walking through muddy path to get to seghe town/Airport although a boat transfer is only 5min. You need to bring all your food in and cook during your stay. 3. You need to enquire about the boat transfer cost, to be clear what trips are included, and what are not, otherwise you will have surprise bill in the end. 4. The water pump stopped during my 2 showers, someone needed to run downstairs to restart the pump so I could finish my showers. 5. There is no mirror in the entire house, and no towel rails in either bathroom. Maybe the owner can install them?

"Amazing location, cozy wooden rooms and very helpful owner/staff. 10/10 view."

Pour moi il n'y a pas eu de souci Pour mon mari peut- être le lit un peu court

"Location was perfect and the house was super clean and comfortable for our family of 5. The owners were awesome and even brought us fresh picked fruit. The view from the front room with its oversized sliding door is spectacular. This picture was taken right out the front door."

"The personal attention of the wonderful owner stood out for us. He went out of his way to collect us from the ferry and take us to the airport the next day. He provided us with a fabulous breakfast too - the best we’ve had over our whole trip. We loved meeting him and talking to him."
