Incredible location
The property is literally on the beach, the most incredible location , very quiet and tranquil. Swimming pool, lounger chairs overlooking the beach. You can walk along the beach, there are a few places to have lunch/ drinks within 5-10 mins. The chef is amazing and cooks the most incredible meals for you. Check in very easy and very helpful host. One point to note is the house does not have any windows , so if you are there in rainy season like we were it can get very damp and our clothes and shoes were all covered in mould as they could not air and no cupboards. The verandah is also unusable in the rain as it floods. Note the floor indoors and outdoors is very slippery and not suitable for toddlers, our little one had some very bad falls. Overall the most amazing location but just few points as mentioned to note depending on time of travel!

5 days on the beach, with a full service on demand
We had a wonderful stay at the Maji Lodge. The location of the house is fantastic and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall, the house is well kept and offered all amenities we needed. Some parts of the house, like the sun deck or the kitchen, would deserve some renovations, though. Our entire family has greatly enjoyed the stay and we think the quality/price ratio is still very good.
