Description

Mikoko sits on a pocket of mangrove-lined coast roughly thirty minutes off the main highway, and the journey in - a sand-firmed track through scrub before the palm-thatched pavilions appear - is part of the experience. The setting is the main event: mangroves on one side, open sea on the other, and a raised deck that collects a natural breeze and long sightlines toward sunset. Kayaks, paddle boards and stand-up boards are available for rent, a small gate fee applies on entry, and a minimum spend threshold runs across the restaurant. The kitchen keeps a tight menu of pizzas, pastas, salads, wraps and a handful of heartier plates, including a Zanzibar coconut chicken curry that pulls the theme together. Ordering is done by phone at the table, which turns over quickly when the system cooperates and can stretch noticeably when it does not. Coffee and desserts are priced at a premium relative to the rest of the menu, which reflects the serene deck more than the kitchen itself. Service is willing, though the team often works at full stretch during busy periods. Camping pitches, glamping tents and a small number of built-in cabanas make an overnight stay possible, and the on-water activities are the reason to build a full day around a visit rather than a quick stop. Expectations are best set around location and atmosphere first, menu second. Cooler months and a sunset timing are when Mikoko shows at its best.

I was after the post on Instagram. Great ambience and set up. Food was ordinary and not worth the money. Service was below expectations. There are so many aspects can be improved to meet customer satisfaction.

We came from so far because we got attracted by the Instagram reel. Place is beautiful, restaurant located just on the beach. The restaurant doesn't serves alcoholic drinks, super long waiting for a tasteless food. Unfortunately we won't be back there, like ever and the road towards that remote spot is trough sandy like road...

Interesting venue surrounded by nature, Casa Mikoko has the Mangroves on one side the sea on the other and land. You definitely feel that you have been taken to another part of the world. The place is stunning and a lovely design. You can camp outside and do your own BBQ (you need a receipt for BBQ), check into one of the luxury rooms, only if available (do note that rooms are limited) or check into one of the build in tents (glamping). On the food and beverage side, you have a limited selection and way overpriced, not the best, a good amount of improvement is required to justify the amount one pays. The staff are always busy and trying to accommodate as many guest as possible. Do like to mention two amazing staff members at the restaurant, Mr.Nadeer, the amazing waiter and Mr.Alang the Coffee Barista. The restaurant requires more staff to ensure a seamless service. We enjoyed dinner and had are own breakfast in the our tent. The venue also provides Kayaking and few other water sports. In the evening you can sit outside and play a game of cards, when the climate is pleasant. Overall the venue is amazing, food and beverage require a change in quality, quantity and price. The staff need more support and the facilities should be refurbished. Entrance fee required the main gate otherwise you will have to show the receipt. Calling will not help, you can try.
