Ankobrah Beach Resort - Axim Getaways Part 1

Super brief because this review was completely unplanned, but definitely worth the detour. Ankobrah Beach Resort is a resort on the shores of Axim, about 2 hours away from the Takoradi airport

They’re open for day trips as well, not just overnight stays and they arrange a lot of tours to places like Little and Great Ankobra rivers, Fort Apollonia Museum and the Nzulezu Style Village (the village on the river) and workshops for those interested in trying new things like archery and surfing.

Ike's Cultural Village

Spent a few days in Kumasi and I got to visit the newest hotel around: Ike’s Cultural Village! It’s a boutique hotel located in the Kumasi Cultural Centre, directly opposite Ike’s Cafe and Grill and is a 15-20 minute drive from the Kumasi Airport on a good day.

A boutique hotel is a small stylish hotel and let me just say, I absolutely love the theme - the place is modelled around the clay hut aesthetic, but with a very modern twist.

Glamping in The Great Outdoors | Shai Hills Resource Reserve

Glamping: Where stunning nature meets modern luxury. a way to experience nature without having to sacrifice creature comforts.

Also: Camping, without the struggle.

I’m the least outdoors-y person I know - I hate bugs, uncut grass, animals , and all related physical activity (The only place outside I love wholeheartedly is the beach).

It’s almost my birthday, and in the spirit of trying new things in my new age, I decided to start my celebrations glamping in “the great outdoors”.
