The pool side setting had a really nice and calm vibe to it. I didn’t particularly enjoy my order, it was definitely too salty but my milkshake was super nice. I recommend as a nice brunch location especially by the pool side. They were a couple of families with kids so it’s well suited for kids as they have a kiddies menu too.

This surely is a five star restaurant,I enjoyed the moment spent here for a meal. The menu is very rich and continental. You dont get anything local here. The ambience is very fancy looking with a long row of plastic flowers lining the wall and nice painting hanging on the wall. The bar is very elaborate and the waiters very busy and good. There are cleaners constantly cleaning, so the place is very clean despite the fact that its so busy. I like the way the waiters take the orders with a tablet, they all have a tablet hanging on them for that purpose. It has a swimming pool as well so its a place to be. Lest I forget, the taste of the food wasnt bad and at a pocket friendly price.

The ambience is great and security is top notch. Great for children’s party and the price is great too 👍but the soft drinks are on the pricey side. 👎🏼The pool is clean and they had lifeguards present who were very good with the kids, alert and attentive 👍Customer service is impeccable👍. I was totally impressed by the value received. The lavatory however wasn’t as clean as would be expected in a restaurant of this nature it was less than perfect👎🏼 I will recommend for a family outing and great for a not so formal meeting. Great food 🤩👍.

The Restaurant is pretty nice, both the poolside and the inside restaurants are very nice. The ambience is just amazing and the food tastes really good, its really a fine dining. Well the food portions are quite small and my chicken curry sauce had just about half a dozen chicken chunks. I would definitely visit again and try more meals 😋.

Nice place, ambience is cool and soothing, so natural. Good and affordable foods, had more than enough to eat, we had to do take away. It is also kids friendly, they have a cool playground for the kids and staff to watch on them.The burger, French fries, buffalo wings, fish suya was superb.

I love the quietness of this restaurant, cafe & poolside tucked in the middle Mabushi district of Abuja).The staff are quite courteous.The food is classy and yummy.Tried the Cesar salad, Shrimp soup, Chefs salad, Giwan ruwa fish and Stuffed chicken cheese & tomato, eggplant sauce with pasta dishes.Its also a place for pizza, milkshakes, soft drinks, cocktails and intercontinental dishes (mainly for the American, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern palate/taste).I look forward to trying out the Phily cheese steak sandwich and Steak dinners soon.

Truly wonderful scenery with lunch/dinner tables bordering and overlooking a crystal blue clear swimming pool. With the dwarf palm trees arranged at intervals, youd think it was a tropical getaway. Service is first rate and the prices are competitive. Day or night, its a beautiful place and exudes pure class. Decent parking available also

I love this place in its entirety. I love this place because of its uniqueness. I love this place for the warm reception from its staffers.I have never known a place like this exist in Abuja. I have been to many restaurants but never been to a place like this.Both the indoor and outdoor are unique in their own way. The cleanliness of the staff is something that will inspire you to eat more.I ate in comfort and style and the menu was so rich and the taste was amazing.

Beautiful scenery. Unfortunately indoor seating wasnt allowed due to covid restrictions. My food came faster than i expected and the portion sizes were large. The coffee was brewed to perfection. Perfect temperature. For my tongue, i wish the food was spicier and more flavourful. I had a chocolate shake. I hit home. The place was packed out on a Saturday night and tables were well spaced

Nice place. Was a little crowded when I visited. There is no smoking area or anything of some sort so you could be sitting and everyone around you is smoking. It was a big concern for me as I am asthmatic. I had dinner beside the pool, it was nice.

Beautiful place. Very affordable. Nice drinks, delicious. The starter was also really tasty (buffalo wings). However, the food wasnt great. It was acceptable, manageable even but not great. I want to give it a 3.5 but since thats not an option, this is a reluctant 4.

𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭I love the atmosphere here. Both in the day and night time. It has a cozy sweet vibes to it and very family friendly. They also have a pool great for kids (with a trainer) and adults to use both in the day/night time𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞This is has to be one of the best customer service I’ve had.

My BluCabana experience will last long in my memory. The ambience was serene and in tune with my senses. The service was swift and seamless, the staff were friendly and accommodating and the food - from the appetiser to the dessert was everything I’d dreamed of more.I will definitely be going back to tease my tastebuds some more. 👌🏾

Review №25

Staff were very cheerful and very knowledgeable about the menu. Drinks, appetizers and main course all arrived promptly. On the downside though, the Irish Cream I ordered was actually hot tea and should be included in the breakfast menu or something. My steak wasnt seasoned all through too but tasted much better with the accompanying sauce. Ambience is awesome though! This is your spot if you want a serene environment for a meal.

I had aa Nice experience, they have good gym and swimmimg pool, they have a nice spot for children, a nice place where u can keep your children to play while get on with your meetings ..the children play ground goes with a fee of 1500...but if youre patronizing them and your food and drinks is above 6000 naira,u will no longer have to pay 1500 for your children to use the Play ground. Also their food was good except for their pizza that is not too good..

Very classy , with pretty young ladies at the entrance waiting to usher you in with huge smiles. The place looks well maintained . Theres a gym upstairs, indoor and outdoor dining areas, downstairs. A swimming pool, and a playground for children.Meals and drinks are fairly priced as well.I enjoyed a warm glass of Irish coffee, before diving into the bowl of Greek salad, creamy pasta and juicy chicken.Everything would have gone perfectly ,if i wasnt tormented by massive buzzing flies, almost wrestling me just to partake in the meal.( LESSON: ALWAYS SIT INDOORS IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY YOUR MEAL...)The waitress was really friendly, and tried to make sure we got everything we needed to help give some comfort, including a fly repellant.

We loved the time we spent at BluCabana! The service was nice and the views were AMAZING. It was good to get away from the business of the city and just enjoy one another. My husband had suya pizza and I had tacos. It came out in good timing and was correct. The ONLY critique I have is the dessert. We ordered cheesecake and it was drowned in strawberry sauce, maybe next time I’ll request less. All in all, we’ll surely be back!

Beautiful environment... state of the art swimming pool (walk-in not allowed. You have to be a registered member to access the pool - N250,000 per annum for a 💑...hmmm). Quick meal service. You dont have to wait more than 15 minutes for your meals. There is also a children play pen which is free depending on how much you spent on meals. I love the environment.

Very cool spot to hang out, the light in the pool at night is super amazing.The food is excellent, good value for money. Very gourmet flavors.Waiters very smart and professional.The branding on uniforms, serviettes and the rest is top notch.There is bar code on the table, very creative of them.The restroom is clean and beautiful as well, well crafted and maintained.Ill visit again and again.Then I visited again after 2 months.Staff very polite and professional.Nice ambience, its the pool and its night lighting for me.We ordered the Combo plater, awesome as usual.Then pinacolada and Virgin pinacolada, the taste is amazing.Now for the main dish, we ordered Blucabana Burger and Spaghetti Bolognese.The food plating is exquisite.For the pasta, its almost bland, it has so much water settled at the bottom of the plate and the plate is chipped at the edge.For the burger, the pattie is stale and it tastes funny. All I could taste is pickle, no sauce, what they called caramelised onions is some chunks of onions thats just sauteed.The glass in which one of the drinks is served is also chipped at the base.Ill attach pictures for more details.We paid 15k for 1 starter, 1 cocktail, 1 mocktail and ambience. The main dishes are disasters.

Ive always been a fan of fine dining,well BluCabana tries to maintain some kind of serenity to their space.I enjoyed my food but it doesnt fall into a perfect 10...Just maybe a nice low tune music would be great when sipping a nice glass of white wine.An overall good experience if I may say so myself.

Ambience was great. Service was great. Food was delicious and the portions were okay. I love the fact that if its your birthday, the entire staff sings and claps for you with the speakers blaring a birthday song.

I loved this place, their seafood soup was lit🔥 and the fresh herbs for the bread 💥💥 the only sad experience was during payment. P.S Their POS was faulty though they have an ATM outside, I would advice go with cash if you can.Yea, one last thing the Irish coffee included in the cocktails is actually hot coffee, you guys should include that thing in your beverage/tea list please.

This place is great for kids but then there are so many things disappointing about them.1. The food and drinks is just there. Definitely not wowing at all.2. The day we went there. There was an influx of flies. Yes the big, green, scary ones. Fighting over our food and drinks and the staff seem to be helpless or nonchalant about fixing the problem.This place will do so much better if they can pay a more attention. It has a fantastic play area for kids.

This is a great place to have breakfast either as single, couple or family with kids.Enchanting ambience especially at night, clean large swimming pool, well equipped gym and their partner hotel very close by.They have great coffee selection and wide range if cocktails, spirits and beer.They made provision for kids to play and wanting to come back.Their prices are not cheap and food portions are small, meaning two persons can share a portion.

This is a good place to chill with friends and family. The food was great too, but the fried chicken and fried rice needs improvement. Additionally, It is kept neat and tidy and the restrooms are cleaned frequently. My issues were the lack of face masks being worn, but placing a sign that it is required. Also, if the customers cannot wear face masks, it should be required to take a temperature check first. Furthermore, insect repellent devices should be installed outside, I could not stand the pesky bugs flying around the food, I thought that was nasty, so something needs to be done about it ASAP. Also, the gym membership plans are on the high side, I think creating a plan for students who cannot afford the higher membership would be great.

So my first time here was a cool evening and it really wowed me. I loved the drink that was recommended by a friend but the food was not my type. I will select a more excellent meal next time. The ambience is amazing, it is a very good place to propose! It is also a good place to have a casual-business meeting.Interestingly, it has a gym and a very lovely pool. You should try it.

Overall 4* - ambiance 4*, child friendly 3.5*, child play areas 5*, restaurant n good 3*. great place for family outings that also offers toddler paly area indoor + outdoor and yes swimming pool. Restaurant offers continental mix theme. Food was 3* for me as the burger which is their main deal came out a bit shoggy at the base. Some of the fries were too oily but I see this quite a bit across abuja. Other than that - definitely a place to go - one of the better place I have been to lately (post covid).

The place isnt just beautiful, its alluring, mesmerizing, the place is just wonder. The out door by the pool is bliss. Airy and warm and cool at the same time.The waiting time may be long, and of course they would explain to you why because of the traffic at their live location.Prompt response from the waiters and waitresses, very polite and articulate.The menu is another beauty. Some of he meals have their pictures on them. And the meals are affordable.At night it is so beautiful you wish to spend the whole day there.

We snuck away from the boys for a dinner date and found ourselves at Blu Cabana. We did not regret this at all.Hubbs ordered the Fettuccini Alfredo while I ordered the Shrimp Curry. He said his Fettuccini needed more parsley but he loved it. I loved that shrimp curry; I could put a straw in it and sip away. It was so good. So so good.Our waiter, Jasper, deserves honorable mention too. The bank decided to mess up and give us a hard time paying the bill, but the restaurant staff didnt fuss about it at all. They were patient till the payment went through.Will definitely go again.

Ambiance was great, the play area for is appropriate for toddlers. The lady that manned the area the day we went was very friendly and attentive to the kids. The waiting time for orders is great;it was not long. There were some hits and misses with the food. The fettuccine Alfredo was delightful, the chicken curry was good. The buffalo wings had a little too much ketchup on and the Mediterranean chicken was a tad dry. The waiters were courteous. Overall, it was a lovely experience. On a side note, I feel the management needs to issue fresh supplies to the waiters that wear green as they look worn out.

This place was awesome. I came here with my sister in law and her kids, and each of us had a good time. Theres a kids area where kids can have fun, the restaurant area is well arranged too. Theres a certain professionalism about the staff here that I was impressed with right from the entrance to the building. I dont mind the location either. Its not exactly central but its still within town enough to not present a problem with access. I would have given this 5 stars, if I wasnt slightly let down by the food. I enjoyed the Chapman drinks, but I didnt like the Buffalo wings, which tasted more like BBQ sauce, and my burger, the BluCabana burger was not as enjoyable as I hoped. The meat was cooked well, but not seasoned properly. But the shrimp balls were delightful and I could eat 20 of them. Overall, I cant wait to come here again.
