At the villa complex, each unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. Stayed for 1 night only... sadly – should have booked more. The place is peaceful and right on a calm stretch of beach. Staff was chill, no stress. No loud music, just waves.

Featuring a private beach area and views of sea, RoRi Private Luxury Villas is a recently renovated villa located in Bwejuu, a few steps from Bwejuu Beach. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The restaurant serves African and Caribbean dishes, as well as Catalan and Chinese cuisine. Wow! Such a beautiful place with impeccable decor, every comfort available! My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the beachfront villa. The property itself is a dream - large outdoor living space, your own pool, and the beach just steps away. The inside had all the modern amenities including a minibar - soft drinks were free and replenishable as well as a large variety of teas. We lived the amazing breakfast spread each morning served to our villa, staff were very helpful and friendly, Riccardo and the kitchen staff were always available. We loved having lunch and dinner options available from the kitchen and we were pleased with the food when we chose to have it. It was also very easy to walk to local restaurants along the beach which were delicious and low cost. Many activities are bookable through the villa and we even availed ourselves of the massage therapist. It was also super helpful to be connected to a driver not only for airport transfers but also to get around the island. I will definitely return!
