Our stay at Mansala Safari Resort was truly delightful! The hotel is beautifully designed and offers amazing value for the price we paid. The family running the place made us feel right at home, and we loved spotting wildlife from our balcony. The only downside was that we could have used more dining options nearby, but the breakfast here was absolutely the best! We’ll definitely be returning on our next trip.
