About Ankobra Beach Resort

Ankobra Beach Retreat, also listed as Ankobra Beach Resort, is a beachfront boutique resort at Axim on Ghana's western coast in the Nzema East Municipal district of the Western Region. It is operated by Ankobra Beach Ltd., whose directors are listed as Florian Wolfart and Prof. A. Addae-Mensah. The operator describes a 45-hectare complex laid out to resemble an authentic West African village, with a maintained stretch of beach surrounded by tropical flora and fauna.

Accommodation is in African-style chalets across Deluxe, Executive Double and Family categories, with 20 rooms in total. The property's own categories are family friendly, nature and recreation. A restaurant serves international and African cuisine, and the operator describes a private beach area within the complex.

The resort states a focus on environmental protection and sustainable education from its inception, along with a social commitment to the local community, and markets itself as a destination for sustainable holidays in Africa connecting guests with the nature, history and culture of Ghana. It also notes locally sourced food and sustainability and environmental education programmes. These are the operator's own descriptions rather than independently verified findings.

The setting is Axim, on the coast west of Takoradi. The operator's contact page gives the address as Old Axim Road 1, P.O. Box 79, Axim, with the Ghana Post GPS address WN-0069-6129.
