From arrival to departure, the staff was amazing. The rooms were clean and the property was clean. I got assistance checking into my room as well as when I checked out. It was a plus having a refrigerator in the room. I also loved getting 2 bottles of water each day. Thank you. Having a plant based diet, I was very pleased with the food options at the restaurant. I will be staying here again.

Don’t miss Lemon Beach!

Lemon beach is a must do destination if you are going to cape coast. We had an amazing weekend. The staff are all wonderful— we had special and excellent service from Prince; we were grateful for George our driver and his team for arranging travel. While the beach right in front of lemon beach is not for swimming you can take a walk down the path and take a dip. We woke up to birds and ocean sounds and an incredible compound with a pool; gardens, great food and bar and Saturday evening cultural event with dancing and drumming from neighboring young people. We hope to return if we ever get back to Ghana. 🇬🇭

Wonderful Experience!

Loved everything about Lemon Beach Resort! The staff (every single one I encountered) was amazing, so incredibly warm and friendly. The resort also referred us to our driver, Moro, who was wonderful. Moro made sure we had a good time and saw as much as possible. I'm very thankful to have met him.

An Oasis by the Sea

If you are visiting Elmina or Cape Coast, the Lemon Beach Resort is the absolute best place to stay. The resort is extremely well run and the attention to detail rivals some high end resorts I have visited. I highly recommend this gem of a resort!

The staff is extremely helpful, kind and courteous. They were always genuinely helpful! They arranged our ride from Accra to resort and back. George was our driver and became like one of the family. Very knowledgeable about the land, customs, politics and local events. We will return. One critical critique, but we have stayed in 3 hotels in 10 days and had the same issue. We experienced it with the Lemon the last day of housekeeping, no facial or hand towels were provided. The Lemon only missed one day of this compared to the other hotels didn’t provide them even after requesting. Overall we give the Lemon Resort a resounding 10!
