British Airways awarded Kakum Forest Reserve a Heritage Award a few years ago and one can enjoy the best views on the Canopy Walk on top of the rain forest, again, one hour, fifteen minutes drive away from the hotel.

The ‘village in the lake’ is Nzulezu, a two hour drive from Takoradi. Stephen, who looks after our guests, will take you in his canoe to the village. A gift of a bottle of schnapps is quite customary for the chief of Nzulezu who will regale you with stories of how the villagers came to settle ‘in the water’.

Our chef will pack you a picnic of lovely ‘cold chop’ if he is given advance notice. We recommend you drive to Ankobra Beach Resort for your lunch (they will allow if you buy a few cold beers) after your sojourn to Nzulezu.
