The Villa can be rented separately for entertainment functions and parties as well. The Bed and Breakfast includes a sumptuous menu with local, as well as Ghanaian/American fusion cuisine. Our food is sourced from local vendors and farmers and many of the herbs and seasonings are grown right on the property in our organic vegetable, herb and kitchen garden. We also have provided the option for the hiring of local chefs to prepare family style dinners or lunches by reservation. With reasonable rental rates, the property can be rented as a vacation property with several options such as an Inn-Keeper, full time cook and a Bed and Breakfast option. These options can all be negotiated at the time of booking the rental.
