This is the most wonderful place to visit. The food is all from local suppliers without single-use plastic. The meals are beautifully prepared and are very reasonably priced. The rooms are clean and comfortable. One can swim across the water body or use their boat and row across to the shoreline and walk along the shore looking at the sea, but it is too rough to swim in even for those like me who are very used to the sea. If you collect a bag of plastic in the bags provided, you will receive a free cocktail! But if you just want to relax, this is a perfect place to sit in a shady spot and read your book or watch the fishermen working their nets along the shore opposite. You do not need hot water showers due to the hot climate, and the rooms are cool with fans and sea breezes that may blow through if you leave only the screen door closed. Activities I participated in are: local children drumming on Saturday morning, walking along the road and then back along the beach, and visiting Bright Mawunyo Adzagba who runs a turtle conservation project a few minutes drive to the East. The manager at Meet Me There can set up a visit for you.

A real contrast program, when you are travelling through Ghana. While a lot of plastic trash is polluting the landscape all through Ghana, a lot of care is taken at that certain place. No plastic bags are acceptred in the Lodge, everything ist "Eco". They use solar powered eletricity, compost toilets, no Air condition, no wifi.
And they take it seroius with that!
The huts are really wonderful. Very comfortable beds, light wind sweeps through the rooms, surrounded by a lush garden.
Swimming in the ocean is not advisable...no it's dangerous. Riptides and huge waves might take take you to the ocean for ever. But, no worries, there is a wonderful lagoon, good and safe for swimming.
The food ist delicious. Just have a look at the photos. Very good cocktails are served at the bar.
There was nothing to complain. Nothing. Nada. Niente.

Meet Me There was a much-needed getaway from the hustle and bustle of Accra. The website asks that you leave Accra before 2.00 pm but I advise that you leave Accra before 1.00 pm. After the Community 25 roads, the roads were tarred and easily pliable.
The food was excellent. While the menu was not your typical menu, keep an open mind because I found the food delicious and filling. There are wonderful vegan options too. The staff was open to making adjustments to the food too.
The mobile network reception is poor so you might not have access to the internet. You might not be able to make or receive calls either.
There are no water heaters and the weather was cool. But the shower was not as cold as I had anticipated. So that was good. The walls in the room are quite thin so you will have to keep noise levels down to not disturb other occupants.
If you are returning to Accra and driving, I recommend visiting Fort Prizenstenstein on your return journey as the Fort is an hour away from Dzita.
The Staff are pleasant and kind. I highly recommend the massage. It was the most relaxing massage I have had in a while. The soap-making class was interesting too.
Overall, it was a pleasant and budget-friendly experience and I will be returning.

The ecolodge takes eco really seriously. Electricity from the solar system, no disposable plastic, composting toilets. Nevertheless, nothing is missing. Food and drinks are outstanding. The ingredients are all regional. We are currently here for three nights and are writing a review for the first time because it is just so incredibly beautiful.

This Eco-Lodge was a great experience which would I would recommend to everyone. With only 3 hours away from Accra it gives a great alternative to the busy city. It is easily accessible by car but also with public service. With great affordable prices they offer rooms up to Suites designed in order to be eco friendly with an outdoor shower and a compost toilets. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. The lodge gives you the opportunity to not only swim in the lagoon but also relax with a massage or beach walk, discover the beauty of Ghana’s mangroves on a boat tour or play games with friends and family. All in all it was a wonderful stay I will definitely repeat the next time I visit Ghana.

Celebrated my birthday at MMT and couldn't have asked for a birthday weekend. The place is gorgeous and a haven of peace. The rooms are clean and the beds are so comfortable. You can hear the waves from your room and feel the breeze, splendid. Little note as it is currently rainy season, the weather gets cold in the evening so be sure to bring long sleeves. The food is delicious - try out the Okro soup, the groundnut soup, and the umbrella toast for breakfast, my absolute favorite dishes on the menu. The team is extremely kind and helpful. They organized a cake and a bonfire for my birthday!!! Please do get a massage as well as you will feel relaxed with the wind blowing and the sound of the ocean. Everything is ecological and you feel disconnected. There is not one negative thing that I can mention about MMT. Hands down my favorite resort in Ghana!! If you are looking for a sense of peace and beauty, BOOK MMT :D

Me and my Partner had a great stay at Meet Me There. The beds were really comfortable, and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. It’s like an oasis set in a lovely small community. The bar had a great cocktail selection, and the food was excellent and fresh!! Best groundnut soup I had in Ghana! I really appreciated that all the ingredients were locally sourced—it made everything feel fresh and authentic.
The only thing I’d note is that the music on the decking at dinner was almost too relaxing, it made me want to sleep as soon as I finished eating aha!:) Overall, a fantastic and welcoming place to stay!

This place is a gem, everything was so perfect. It was a relaxing getaway with opportunities to explore the area if you want. We took an amazing boat ride to explore the mangroves, estuary, river, and local communities. The lodge itself is gorgeous! The rooms are comfortable (no AC, but the fan at night and ocean breeze helped), the outdoor shower was amazing, the food was the best we had in Ghana and perhaps even at home in the US, the staff were so friendly and attentive, the community feeling and programs and relationships the lodge has with the local town is inspiring. Make sure you get up early one morning and watch the local fisherman haul in their catch - I thought I worked hard until I saw what they do every day! Also, I must mention, the music playlist in the evenings was fantastic, I think we looked up every song and added it to our Spotify account. Stay here as soon as you can, you will not regret it.

Thank you for a beautiful stay in paradise. The lagoon is one of the most idyllic places to swim, the staff were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, and the food was delicious, especially the vegetarian cooking. A huge thank you to the whole team - we will be back!

This is a very quaint, intimate, totally African beach hotel and restaurant. Not elegant or fancy but it has everything you need. We absolutely loved our stay here and would always come back but it's often booked so plan ahead.
The hotel is on the edge of an estuary on the other side of which is the open ocean beach. The estuary, thereby protected from the waves of the ocean is a virtual salt-water pool, very relaxing and comfortable.

I stayed at Meet Me There lodge in November 2020. The rooms we stayed in had ceiling fans. My room's ceiling fan was a bit faulty with speed, so management address it with a standing fan which worked out just fine. The cross breeze from the windows also help moving the ocean air through our rooms. We were fine managing through the heat.

From accra my fav is either driving or trotro to ada and taking a small boat to keta

The costs are dependent on the accommodation you choose expensive, the Chiefs suite £23 per night, to student dormatory £7.50 per night.(but check their website for price changes) you pay in local currency GHCs which are currently 5.7 to the £. All meals, including breakfast, are in addition to this, a main meal costing about £6.00,pretty reasonable and pretty good.
Note there is no where near by to change money or even an ATM, so come with local currency, the rate at the airport is the best we found.
