Enregistré comme favori 160 fois
Me and my wife run a small tourism venture in Ghana (west africa). And look forward to expand our beachfront accommodation by constructing a second holiday rental. We could certainly use some extra hands!
The tourism project is not our personal project but an initiative from a guide in the neighboring village (Ampenyi). It involves excursions for tourists visiting the beach house and other beach resorts around (excursions include village tour / local fishing tour / lagoon tour).

Hans Cottage Botel
Located at Cape Coast, Central
The Hans Cottage Botel is located in a serene environment and the collection of plants and birds are beautiful. The setting is pleasant, partly on stilts on a pond, with a swimmingpool and nice greenery. It is actually a restaurant on stilts in a pond with crocodiles, turtles and various bird species (a large colony of weaver Birds building their nests around the water). You can pay to see the crocs being fed. It is easiest to spot crocodiles in the evening or morning, so you may wish to spend the night at the Hans botel The hotel is strategically located, close to well known tourism highlights as Cape Coast, Elmina, Kakum, ---
Monkey forest reserve (zoo), all in the same area.
