The staff were very attentive and kind. There are so many animals around the resort that made it a unique experience. The lake was very beautiful.

Lewi Resort gave us an unforgettable memory! From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us warmly and made us feel right at home. The rooms were spotless, cozy, and offered a stunning view of the lake. The food was beyond delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The boat ride across the lake was peaceful and magical, with breathtaking scenery all around. Every detail of our stay was perfectly arranged. Whether relaxing by the water or enjoying the incredible meals, every moment was special. Lewi Resort is a true gem. We can’t wait to return again and again! Sara

Staff was very friendly. Food was great. Get the Lewi special fries with ketchup and mayonnaise. Great view of the lake. Just don’t feed the monkeys.

Decent experience, some issues

Pros: -Excellent location on the Awassa Lake -Service was tremendous, everybody was helpful and extremely kind -Free breakfast -Price is affordable Cons: -Wifi is bad and non-existent half the time(important for communication to other countries) -The bathroom smelled bad, we changed rooms but the problem persisted. Seemingly from sewage after flushing, even after a day of non-use -Food looked good but lacked flavor/seasoning -Not accepting credit cards at check-out for incidentals is very inconvenient

We stayed 12 years ago and it nothing has been updated. A little disappointed. The staff was great. The bungalow, even though listed as having a king pullout sofa and a king bed, only had a king bed and 2 chairs. We had to pay $30 dollars extra to get another bed in the room.

Decent rooms but lacking in amenities - no hot water, no coffee in rooms (but coffee pots). Didn't receive our airport transfer coming from airport. Friendly staff made up for it in some ways, but we were disappointed overall in the quality of the rooms and service.

There are mistakes in the hotel description as there is no airconditioning, no tea & coffee making facilities, no kettle. We booked a family suite with 2 bedrooms, but on arrival they did not have it available and instead gave us a different set of room which were fine. Even though the descriptions did not meet reality, the feel of the hotel was lovely and friendly. The monkeys add some African interest and the staff are very helpful. Breakfasts are hit and miss. Book a room with lake view as these have more air flow (as there is no AC)

the only thing that was OK, was the bread! Bed is a made up circle that was very hard due to not having a mattress . Walls had holes by the windows that were not sealed so insects were free to enter! Food was terrible, made me sick for two days! So called city tour was never available! Mosquito net above the bed was useless! The staff was very friendly but who cares about that when everything else is terrible!

I was excited about going to a hotel with pool but when I arrived the swimming area was not available because of renovation. The room looked better on photos than in real life, the wait time for a menu in the restaurant is 30 minutes and the same to enter the spa there was pre-booked. My expectations was very high before I arrived but Lewi didn't live up to them. Alot of promises in the hotel description was not kept and there were no refund in price or any extra service to make up for the lack. Beautiful veiw and nice little boat trip (when we finally could go just before checkout)

I recently stayed at this hotel and, unfortunately, my experience was less than satisfactory. There were several issues that significantly impacted my stay: 1. Amenities: There was no safety deposit box in the room, and neither an iron nor an ironing board was available. 2. Bathroom Issues: The bathroom did not flush properly, which was a major inconvenience. Additionally, for a hot shower, I had to call the lobby. I also had to request additional bathroom tissues, and there were no napkins provided at all. 3. Water Supply: one day There was no water for several hours during our stay. This was extremely problematic and unacceptable. On a positive note, the staff were generally nice and helpful. However, the front desk staff were an exception to this. Their attitude and service left much to be desired, contrasting sharply with the rest of the team. If you want to enjoy the view of the hotel, I would recommend staying elsewhere and visiting as a guest. Overall, while the majority of the employees were friendly, the significant issues with the room and facilities, coupled with the unhelpful front desk staff, mean that I cannot recommend this hotel.
