Even though I couldn't understand the language, the power occasionally went out and came back right away. The food was also varied and enriched, and there were different programs in the evening. The attentive service attitude can be felt. The only drawback is that the car used in the hotel is too old and the air conditioner does not cool down.

Very good hotel. Except for the bad road when driving in, everything else is great. They prepared cakes when they knew it was our birthday and sang happy birthday during dinner. Breakfast and dinner were both good. The car battery was dead when we left on the third morning. The electricity was turned on, and the hotel helped to connect it. Thank you very much!

There are not many types of meals, but the environment and service are very good. The reserved room directly faces the sea. The swimming pool is sea water. It would be better if there is fresh water. I recommend this hotel

I stayed to Essque for 3 nights. I celebrated my wedding there and it was wonderful. The superstar was Moureen. She made sure the celebration was perfect. All the staffs were kind and helpful. I had several meeting with the chef (Louis) and the beverages manager (Ali), who made sure everything was clear before the wedding. The room, the pool, the restaurant, the jetty, everything is magical. I highly recommend the place. And if you plan to stay longer, please find Moureen, Amina or Paulo.
