    Incredible location, right in front of the beach and immersed in nature. You can hear the birds and the sound of the ocean. Magical! Friendly and kind staff make you feel at home. Amazing fresh food everyday!

    Location quite far out of Cap Skirring. Whilst we could call a taxi, and did!, very easily if you are walking then it is a few hours into town. We walked back along the beach and it was nice if a little samey in places.

    Pretty beachside ecolodges. Food was good in the evenings and the bar was a lovely place to sit and enjoy the sunset. We stayed for two nights (I think up to three would have been enough in this location) and found it relaxing and restful. Le Kibalaou's relatively remote location forces you to go at a slower pace. Nice to sit in the beach hammocks and read!

    It is necessary to use repellent because there are some big flies that bite and you get swelling afterwards which is extremely unpleasant. But I was helped by staff with an oil that relieved it. So the next time I go there, I will absolutely have repellent.

    I stayed at small bungalow on the side of the other bungalow so it was undisturbed and had a view of the yard. Bed was comfortable, the room small but nice, I enjoyed my stay there. The restaurant was a bit from bungalow on the small hill with view over the ocean and it was nice sitting there. Breakfast was continental but with omelette or only fried egg. They served even lunches and dinners and all was very tasty and much so I often not managed to eat everything. I can recommend warm this place a little far from town Cap Skirring so it was quit there and only nature around.

    If you'd like to stay in a place with the kindest humans, delicious (plentiful) food, calm healing energy, comfy beds, cleanliness that make the room smell divine all for a more than exceptionally reasonable price. Stay here. The fan was more than enough air conditioning, the sheets and mosquito net felt brand new, spending hours talking with the people here was so special. I didn't want to leave! I can't say anything about this place apart from I loved it. The beds on the beach, the hammocks, speedy WiFi in the main areas. They lent me a yoga mat, were patient with my limited French, showed me how they fished - they offered to take me to town but I just loved resting here. As a woman travelling on her own I felt so thankful to how kind and generous this place is and very very lucky to stay.

    It's a bit far away, they need to take you in a pickup truck from where the taxi leaves you... but the distant location means it's very quiet and peaceful!

    Wonderful place to get away from it all! Lovely virgin beach, simple but comfortable room, wonderful staff. I would definitely return.

    The location is a bit remote, which is great to enjoy the beach but this means I should have called in advance to get picked up. Their team does it promptly as long as they're notified.

    Comments are not overrated: the staff is really superb and ready to help.

    There was nothing I didn't like, it was an excellent stay.

    What a beautiful place. I stayed here for 5 nights solo, to rest and rejuvenate. It's the perfect place for that, with a long quiet beach, comfortable and clean rooms, hammocks, common areas, and lovely family running Kibalaou. Everyone who works here is welcoming and warm in ways I'll not forget. The food is great, for those who enjoy fresh fish and fruit, this is the place for you. I could feel myself getting healthier by the day. I really appreciated being amongst the family, with a lot of quiet time to myself while also feeling very welcomed to spend time together, or to help out with fishing - which we then ate soon after! There's good WiFi in the common area, airport pick up and drop off, and generally help with what you might need. When my flight was cancelled because of the weather, adaptations were easily made with support. I highly recommend this beautiful place, and hope to return! A note that there's no ATM nearby, so bring cash + extra for meals and airport transfer
