The owners make you feel at home immediately. They give recommendations and know the island well. Very cute and quaint place to stay. All 4 room would often meet in the common area for coffee in the morning and share our previous day. The rooms were set up well with a small kitchen area. They have a book library in the common area. Plenty of places to sit, lounge and relax.walking distance to grocery store , two amazing restaurants , and maybe 10 min walk to the marriot beach. I'm so happy I stumbled on this boutique hotel.

Karibu is a wonderful small boutique hotel. If you are looking to enjoy quiet time by the pool, away from the crowds or a day at the beach, this is the place. It is impeccably clean. Beja and Andras are very accommodating hosts.

We loved that it was small, quiet, and far enough away from the big hotels to not be crowded, but close enough to walk to the beach and restaurants. The owners, Andrus and Beja, are incredibly sweet and very helpful. There’s no question we’ll stay there again when we return.

Karibu is an excellent place to stay. It is reasonably priced, very clean, free of the hotel area crowds. Everything you need is close by. Renting a car makes it easier to get around but taxis are easily accessible.

We were very pleased with our room which even had a small kitchen, fridge and micro so we could make our own breakfasts. The hosts were both helpful and friendly. There’s a small pool and sunning patio with a pleasant view of wetlands. 15 minute walk to the beach.
