It is the private vacation home of a Ghanaian/Japanese/German family based in Germany. We spend 3-4 weeks a year in Ghana and always love to return to our home. It is very important to us that our accommodation is very clean and comfortable. Experience Ghana like Ghanaians do, authentically, in a safe, well established, and very lively area, from a very pleasant and comfortable home. Why stay in the old traditional expatriate areas? Come and see the house for yourself and you will be charmed!
This vacation home is well maintained and equipped to a standard above the average vacation home in western Europe. This is because it is our own personal vacation home and it is very important to us that the house provides above average comfort.
Recently renovated, the house has 3 bedrooms, a spacious multi-purpose room which can be used as a bedroom or office, two spacious halls, two bathrooms (one ensuite and one shared) with showers, sink and toilet, a kitchen with storeroom, guest toilet and sink, corridor and verandah, back terrace behind kitchen and outdoor parking space for up to 3 vehicles.
The house is very airy and light throughout, due to the many windows (louvres) and elevated location close to the sea. It also offers beautiful views of McCarthy hills and surrounding towns and overlooks the salt ponds (great for Christmas and new years fireworks viewing).
