Disappointment

“Good breakfast, nice venue”
Worth knowing: My second time that I booked and the pump for the hot swimming pool was out of order. The swimming pool was cold during my stay, even though I phoned before booking to make sure it was working. Overall poor experience. I mainly go to Majeka House for the warm indoor pool and without that, the stay was disappointing. Also the fact that I was told that it is working and the water was hot on enquiry before the booking.
Amazing!

“The amenities, the breakfast, friendly staff, accommodating is each and every way possible. I had an amazing stay, I’d definitely go back, was welcomed with a smile and a welcome drink, and also got the Wi-Fi password without even asking, was given a tour, they even carried my bags, and was so excited to see me, it felt like a home away from home. Reception is 24hour, and just 1 call away, staff are so friendly and willing to assist with anything, I’ve never been to a place where anyone is willing to assist with a smile 24/7. Complimentary daily breakfast, you can decide what you want to eat, even on their breakfast menu. Waiters are friendly. I loved how this accommodation feels like a concerned and caring partner, you get sweet messages that they leave, and even some treats here and there, there is even a Nespresso coffee maker in the room, with a selection of hot chocolate, coffee, and teas. Anything else you need staff are so willing to assist. The Indoor pool, sauna and steam room is included in the stay complimentary and you can go whenever you want at any hour, they even provide you with complimentary cake slices 3pm daily in the dining room and a happy hour every Friday where cocktails are buy 1 get one free. Anything you need or can think of is already there. When checking out, I even got a gift just before leaving. The rooms are fully equipped, modern and stunning, the beds are so comfortable, large enough to fit 5 people, I Would 1000% recommend to anyone and I’d most definitely go back. Thank you Majeka!”
Worth knowing: The free wifi didn’t work in my room, it only worked when I was in the reception area and at breakfast
I will never recommend this hotel I think maybe when all renovations have been done it should only reopen

“★☆☆☆☆ A Gross Misrepresentation of the Property Being Sold This was one of the worst accommodation experiences I have had, and I cannot understand how this property continues to market itself as a premium establishment. The problems began before I had even entered the property. It took approximately five minutes to gain access because the gate would not open, and when I phoned the number displayed on the website it connected to the wrong number. Not exactly the welcome one expects. What followed was even worse. The property is in an appalling state of repair. There is visible mould, extensive damp, deteriorating finishes, water damage, peeling paint, broken and neglected fixtures, poor housekeeping and an overall lack of basic maintenance. This is not a matter of a property showing its age. It is a property that has been neglected. The shower drain was blocked, causing the shower to flood. The room itself felt unhygienic, with dirt and mould evident throughout. There is simply no excuse for this. Even if a property cannot immediately afford major renovations, there is no justification for allowing paying guests to stay in rooms with visible mould, damp and poor standards of cleanliness. Breakfast offered no respite. Instead, it was accompanied by relentless drilling, excavation and heavy construction noise, making any attempt at a peaceful morning impossible. At no point was this communicated before arrival. The most disappointing discovery came during my stay., when I read the TripAdvisor reviews and saw management responses from Loaranne in November 2025 acknowledging many of these exact issues and assuring guests that improvements were underway. I visited in July 2026. The property is, to all appearances, in substantially the same condition. That means prospective guests are not looking at isolated complaints. They are looking at problems that management has known about for at least eight months yet continues to market around. That is deeply disappointing and, in my view, a serious misrepresentation of the experience guests can realistically expect. I have attached photographs because I believe future guests deserve to make their own assessment. They show the mould, damp, deteriorating finishes and general condition of the property exactly as I found them. Had I read the previous reviews before booking, I would never have stayed here. That was my mistake. Don’t make the same one. I would not recommend this property under any circumstances until it undergoes a comprehensive refurbishment and can honestly deliver the standard it advertises.”
