The Hideout Lodge is the perfect beach retreat. Not only is the location perfect, but the prices are very honest as well. We found this place the best value for money we encoutered during our three weeks in Ghana. Hideout Lodge is located right at the beach a few hundred meters from the town of Butre. It benefits from a... More

Ellis Hideout is easier to get to rom the West now there's a bridge to the village across the river - so you don't need to get there from Busua by canoe. (The bridge may not last for long however.) Once there, enjoy what the Hideout offers - remote, beautiful beach, a few chalets in need of some attention, good... More

Hideout Lodge in Butre, Ghana near Busua: Stayed in several places along the coast during our recent trip to Ghana and this was one of our favorites. We were able to book a very reasonably-priced room over the phone with the manager, George, the evening before we arrived. In a relatively accessible location, we arrived by taxi from Agona Junction... More

Days spent at this very close to my heart Hideout lodge, which is situated between two pocket sized villages, were filled with sun, even though it was mostly cloudy during our trip. The clean sandy beach is breathtaking and ideal for sun bathing and lazy relaxing with a good book (which you can borrow or trade at the small library... More

The Hideout Lodge in Butre(30min walk from Busua) was a great place to stay. It provides a more relaxed atmosphere than Busua, and the on site restaurant serves amazing food- be sure to order dinner in advance. Every meal was amazing. The room was clean (3 bed bungalow) and had a lot of space. Friends stayed in the treehouses which... More

This place seems to be popular so maybe I'm in the minority but I found it dirty and dingy. The toilets didn't work when my friends and I were there - when I first went in to use the washroom there was an unpleasant surprise. The food wasn't horrible but not particularly good either (pasta kinda stale). The dorms just... More

I stayed here back in 2007 and returned in 2010. No, the food isn't any better, no the rooms aren't any better, (although room 2, which I unfortunately got on both occasions is the worst - I have heard some of the others are nicer, so try and avoid it at booking), and no the service has not improved in...

Booked in Holland and needed to pay in advance...... The resort lays beautifully to the coast. The houses look very romantic from the outside Those were the positive points; the rest was negative: The mosquitonet had many, many holes, I was glad I had a good one in my suitcase The matras of the bed was a cheap peace of...
