Shown on the map,next to Sir Charles Tourist Center in Winneba, is Manuels Bar. He has recently opened a small guest house of two rooms with shared bath room. cedis 10 or 15 nightly. It has a small private garden and is very clean. If a room is wanted near the beach or the excellent Lagoon Lodge is full this place is a good alternative.

I think Manuels Guesthouse should be taken in to the next updated edition for the Bradt guide. I have been travelling a couple of times to Ghana and I never felt so much at home as by Manuel. The place has 5 rooms: 3 single room (20 cedi) , 1 double room (25 cedi) and 1 bungalow for 4 persons (50 cedi), extra matress (5 cedi). The rooms are all selfcontained and have fan and tv.
I like the fact that Manuel is renovating the place by himself and he is really doing a good job. The rooms are very clean and nice. It is a very quiet place and guests can even enjoy free Wifi internet. What I love the most is the friendliness of Manuel and his wife. Meals can be ordered in advance (around 6 cedi) and you can even join Manuel or his wife to the market to buy the ingredients and cook with them. Guests of the bungalow can use the kitchen to cook themselves
I really think such good initiatives should be promoted and I hope Manuel keeps up the good work.
Does anyone know the number to Manuels Bar?
Thanks!
It is 00233 (0)244422684.
That’s good to hear Dimitri – I am sure we’ll include it in the next edition!
