    17 November 2014

    "Pros - Modern and funky establishment; friendly welcome; hearty breakfast; room cleverly designed so can even see the sea from the bathroom; beds comfortable; can hear and smell the sea; view incredible; room cleanOTHER- very basic room e.g. no toiletries in shower, no hairdryer and no TV in room; the blinds don't block out the sun, so when sun rises you rise; no air-con."

  • "Great place to stay"

    20 December 2013

    "The rooms are very nicely finished, and very well thought out. Amazing views. The blinds don't block out the sun in the morning, but if you're there to enjoy every day to the max, it's okay. Breakfast is nice. You can take a very pleasant walk into town and choose from a few restaurants there. La Casa Nostra has excellent food - but make a reservation.Drifters don't have 'do not disturb' signs for the rooms, so just keep in mind as the room service can arrive at any time.Very close to La Mercy Kite Surfing spot."

Special thanks to Colin who was absolutely amazing, and made sure that our stay was was comfortable, and of course not forgetting the staff who assisted Colin with the cleaning up and the breakfast too. The location of the lodge is perfect, with the view of the sea view, so we will definately go back to Balito again."

    "Firstly from the time we did the booking with Wilma we had nothing less than excellent service!We had constant feedback and contact from Wilma as well as Julia at drifters reservations. We had to change our date twice and they were all accommodating to our request. When I called to say we were running late,on the day of arrival,Julie assured me that she would call the inn and advise them. Which she did as promised. When we arrived at the inn, tired and weary we had the very pleasant staff welcome us and take us to our rooms. The entire weekend they saw to our needs and we had divine breakfast with the views of the ocean...Colin and his team took excellent care of us and that is what made the place special! Despite being basic, it was clean and neat and we felt at home with the warm reception we received. Thank you all! We will be sure to use safarinow again for our travel bookings! P.S The snorkelling on the beach just in front of the inn is excellent.."
