Lopesan Baobab Resort

Location was great . It was spotless everywhere . Good entertainment for all ages . Then pools were great and really different to any other hotel i have been to . The whole feel of the hotel was excellent

No coffee facilities in room which was strange and room service was 12 euros for 2 cappuccino s !! Also no water was provided in rooms , 80 percent of staff were great . But we had a couple of really rude staff which was a shame ,lan example of this was one day we had hone to buffet to get our breakfast on our return our table had been cleared . We were told we couldn’t sit there as someone else was mow going to sit there . told we would have to wait for another table

The hotel was amazing. Like the pictures. Huge and incredible. African vibes and with the “pool river” in the middle. Super cleaned room, super diverse breakfast, lots of activities. We loved every moment. And the magic show was out of this world!

The swimming pool opens too late (10am - at 8/9am it’s already super hot) and closes too soon (6pm, it should be like 8pm); The lifeguards start asking people to leave the pool before the closing time; close to the restaurant’s closing time, the staff also will not allow you to eat there (e.g., we arrived at 8:35pm and they told us that we could not eat at one of the restaurants because it would close at 9pm). That’s not okay; The restaurants close too early for dinner (one at 9pm and another at 9:30pm). It should be until 10:30pm. In addition, when you pay for lunch/dinner be careful because drinks are not included (and that information was never passed to us!) when the price is already quite expensive. Drinks should be already included. Plus, you have to pay for the drinks before you finish your own dinner. For us it was a bit rude that our dinner was interrupted to pay for the drinks; The gym does not have AC or it’s not working properly. It’s really difficult to work out there because it’s too hot; Finally, some people make a lot of noise at night and hit their doors really hard (but that’s not the hotel’s fault, of course); Ah, and one time we did not want our room cleaned and we left the “Do not Disturb” warning hanged and the cleaning ladies still cleaned it. Also, a heads-up to the fact that all the loungers around the “river pool” to be super full even before the time the swimming pool opens. You have to put your towel there before but then the staff gives you a warning which does not make sense since it’s impossible to get a place… Just an info: if you’re not having dinner all days in the hotel, you have to go every day to the reception to say want to have dinner there on that day. It’s a bit annoying and sometimes the queues are big.

It’s beautiful

Nothing

The layout

Waiter making me pay for drinks mid meal and hovering over, pressuring us to eat and pay. Terrible service, it ruined our meal.
