Achimota Forest Tours

This was a last minute reservation and I needed to check in sooner than the 2 Pm check in time. Stopped by the property to inquire about this and met with the care taker who was accommodating and very personable. The apartment itself was just okay. It is an older unit and it showed. It was adequate but nothing fancy. There was ample communication with the care taker. Two things stood out. One, there were no teacups in the unit. Tried to drink tea and needed to call to have teacups brought in. Secondly the TV mounted on the wall was higher than normal so actually developed a crick in my neck while watching tv from the couch. Need to lower the TV. Overall liked the readily available communication.

We stayed an extra two days due to a delay in travel plans. This time we moved into a smaller villa that was just as great as our first. The hot tin was wonderful and the food was great. We are looking forward to staying here again in the near future!

Just spent a week with my family and loved it. The good points: the staff are fantastic, so helpful and friendly even when we turned up at 2am after our flight was delayed. The rooms are big and clean (and didn't see a single mosquito). Air con worked well. Netflix on the tv. Pool was clean. The best bit was being right on the beach. The boys loved playing football and splashing around. It's out of the city centre so very quiet and peaceful and it was great to get away from the insane traffic. It's about 8 miles/30min drive from West Hills Mall which has a big supermarket, pharmacy and restaurants which was good when travelling with children. Be aware: although it isn't far out of the city distance wise, because the traffic/roads are so bad it does take a long time to get to. If you were only in accra for a couple of days you might want somewhere a bit more central. Needs improvement: their back up generator wasn't working when we were there so every time there was a power cut (almost daily) there was no A/C. It wasn't a deal breaker but I've never stayed in a hotel in accra that didn't have a working back up generator. Would we stay there again: yes
