“This Harare property's dedication to sustainability, powered by solar energy, stands out, and the unique garden dining area creates a tranquil setting; families should also appreciate the outdoor pool and movie nights. While some experiences seem to fall short, the idea of individual guest rooms and free packed lunches for excursions are indeed thoughtful touches. Overall, I think it's a mixed bag.”
