Bahari Dhow Beach Villas

The beds were terrible. The beds were horrible and hurting my back. The beds have wires sticking into me and my wife’s back. These mattresses are ready for the burn pit ! Even animals should not sleep in these beds. Need to change all your mattresses to attract more clients and profits.

Check your A/C and shower heads

Great location . One pool was out of service. Room was missing fridge.

Serene environment

Overall a great vacation! Great location on the beach and reasonably priced. The villas were very nice with self-contained rooms. Breakfast was included and a very good buffet. Great entertainment on Sundays. Improvement areas would be the wifi, which was pretty patchy, and the hot water supply.

We were to check in at 12pm. We arrived the facility at about 3pm. The rooms were still dirty at the time of arrival, they finally got cleaned at 5pm. The hot water was not functional. Staff attitude to work was horrible. They appeared less concerned to our plight and were very slow towards their duties.

The places is perfectly located with beach and main shops. The staff make it a 7 star! They are awesome

Place was quite and I enjoyed it

All staff were very helpful and friendly. Food in the beach bar was tasty but unfortunately they didn’t always have everything on the menu including drinks. Rooms were cleaned daily but they need to be updated. Looking quite sorry for themselves as are the pools and outside of the buildings. There needs to be blackout blinds or curtains in the bedrooms as it’s very bright early morning. Also they need to fit shower curtains as the bathroom floor gets soaking.

Was a pleasant stay. Just wish our air worked the first night. We did get switched the 2nd night to a nicer room with air.

Very nice, clean and quite

Very safe and convince

The property was a mess. Leaking in the bathroom, pillow caseses that dont fit. broken insufficient light. Rust, the list is long.Even for a budget room. The staff were kind and tried to fix everything. But it did not really work. But lovely environment.

Quite and Convenient Villa Staff are friendly

Our stay was comfortable and met all our needs

Our stay was disappointing from the moment we arrived on Dec 31st. The security at the gate would not allow our Uber to drive into the compound, even after letting them know we were checking in as guests. They asked the driver to drive through a side road, park and use the side entrance. Unbeknownst to us, this was the beach entrance and absolutely did not make sense to use for guest check in. We had to walk through the sand in our travel clothes and shoes to make it through the back entrance. Our only saving grace was a couple of security guards that helped us carry our suitcases after they heard our complaints. The explanation that we got from the Reception was that there may have been confusion as the main gate security guard assumed we were New Year’s party guests and only needed access to the beach but once we clarified that we were indeed guests, the main gate security guard was unapologetic and would not even allow our Uber through the gate a second time to pick us up. We had to walk up a hill and out of the gate to catch our Uber. To make matters worse, on one of the nights, we were dropped off at about 4am, showed the room key to a separate security guard and he let our Uber through the gate, only this time to be followed by a strange man that demanded to see our room key again to confirm we were indeed hotel guests. This whole experience definitely left us feeling targeted and discriminated against. I would never again stay here.

Overall ok.Recommended

Verry good place to stay !! Nice, clean and quiet

We stayed at Bahari Dhow for about a week and the experience was good. Looking at the other reviews I was quite surprised because the room was very clean and also the pool was maintained well. Of course some bugs could be seen, because we had the room on the first floor and after all this is the tropics... The bugs came from outside and were mainly in the toilet. We did not see bed bugs etc. There was lots of security guards but the it was not possible to lock the windows of the room because they were a bit broken, so that would be a good thing to fix to make the security of the place better. The breakfast was good. There was an event on sunday in the restaurant and many locals also attended, which was fun! The garden at the villas was really pretty and well maintained! There was a gardener who climbed the palm trees to pick coconuts and that was fun to see.

Good place right on the beach. The rooms are in fair shape. I would stay there again because it was affordable. The restaurant was good too but they did mess up on my last order and I was not able to get my order corrected or my money back because the restaurant closed and I was leaving that morning.
