Choosing the right resort for your vacation can significantly elevate your overall experience when it offers a blend of luxurious amenities, exceptional service, stunning locations, diverse dining options and a serene ambiance. Without a doubt, staying at a great resort has become the preferred choice for travellers seeking convenience, relaxation and memorable getaways.
That is what Marlin Resort – a leading African resort best known for its luxury, modern facilities and serene environment located in Ghana – offers its clients. Guests at Marlin Resort are presented with an escape to paradise, where luxury meets tranquility accompanied by breathtaking ocean views, world-class amenities and unforgettable experiences. In addition is the tranquil atmosphere that enhances the vacation experience for guests.
Marlin Resort is located within the heart of Gomoa Fetteh, a coastal town in the Central Region of Ghana. It is approximately an hour drive away from the country’s business centre, Accra and the Kotoka International Airport. Under the management of its visionary Founder, Albin Akansake, a Freight Executive and Tax Accountant by training, Marlin Resort is fast becoming a resort of choice across the West African coast.
In an interaction with Mr. Akansake at his beautiful seafront property in a pristine coastline, he revealed the motivation for establishing the resort, which centred on creating a facility which will provide guests with an experience supreme to the various offerings by leading resorts across the West African coast. He further indicated his intentions to position Marlin Resort as a top-tier resort for continental glory.
“The hospitality industry in Africa is experiencing a boom like never before. From luxury resorts on the Indian Ocean coast to boutique hotels in bustling urban centres, the continent is rapidly becoming a global hotspot for tourism and business travel. As more international brands invest in Africa and local businesses expand, there are unending opportunities within the sector and that drives my motivation for establishing Marlin Resort with the vision to position it as the best on the continent,” he stated.
Mr. Akansake added: “We have heard and seen the world focus its attention on all-inclusive resorts being the ultimate holiday destinations with offerings generally including lodging, unlimited food and drink, entertainment and other recreational activities. These destination resorts also provide fitness programmes, spas and, in some instances, shopping. Their advantage is that guests do not have to leave the resort after arriving, and that is the vision for Marlin Resort”.
Marlin Resort is an all-inclusive resort which currently has 100 rooms, from standard rooms to presidential and ambassadorial suites, accompanied by three conference halls – all equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and can host up to 300 guests. There are five restaurants of international standard with various unique cuisines. The resort has multilingual employees to ensure there is no language barrier for non-English speaking guests.
International guests flying into the country are welcomed at the Marlin Welcome Desk at the Kotoka International Airport and chauffeured to the resort in a vehicle of their choice. The various activities and facilities available for guests include an infinity pool, ocean with a clean beach, quad biking, horse riding, board and card games, valet park, mini digital golf club, tennis court and free Wi-Fi.
There is a VIP lounge to provide guests who prefer ultimate exclusivity, privacy and luxury with an out-of-this-world experience. It is located on the top-most floor of the resort where guests will literally be looking down on the world and the oceans in a lavish manner, coupled with the meticulous detailing and privileged cuisine.
The resort has a plush beach-side lawn which offers the perfect location for parties, weddings and any other events. The ocean view provides a picturesque backdrop to really elevate the bliss of your event and the guests will relish the ocean breeze and sounds of rushing waves and the magnificence of our beautiful lush green lawn. In addition, there is a doctor on call and a 24-hour in-house clinic.
