Amafu Forest Lodge

Beautiful premises. The tent/bed was comfortable and there is a beautiful view from the deck.

The main receptionist was on leave, according to the owner, and we felt it was difficult to obtain even very basic information. Our main issue with the guesthouse was safety. There is no lighting on the way to the upper part of the premises. It was not clear to us whether the property was well-secured. For example, the gate appears to be open and does not have a guard at night. This all matters because the tents cannot be locked which made us feel very unsafe throughout the night. There was quite some noise outside, and we hardly got any sleep. The restaurant does not have a menu and only serves guests after 7pm. We were were given a choice of 2-3 dishes. The food was really below standard of a 4-star guesthouse. The vegetable pasta was very oily, and the steak fatty. We therefore decided to skip breakfast. Overall we are quite disappointed, as we would have expected more for the relatively high price we paid.
