I was a little lost so she gave me direction.I thought was very kind of her. I got a warm welcome from the Maasai guard who was super friendly and welcoming, I felt at home. the place was clean and comfortable. beautiful surroundings across the road is the beach 5 min walking distance. a lot of places to chill in the compound, an excellent swimming pool, top of the castle you get a view of the ocean and sunset which was a plus. I made friends with the residential tortoises who were very friendly and I shared my fruits with. i would come back again in the future.
