I attended to Richmond College's get together there. It was a night function. They have arranged the atmosphere nicely. Different locations are there for outsiders too to have drinks and foods. Parking space is also enough for a crowd.

My husband and I recently had our wedding reception at Owinmo and we were blown away by the exceptional service and beautiful venue. The food was delicious and our guests were raving about the extensive selection of dishes. The staff were attentive and accommodating, ensuring that all of our needs were met throughout the entire evening. What truly stood out to us was the personalized attention that Owinmo provided. From the initial planning stages to the day of the event, their staff were communicative and responsive to all of our requests and questions, making the planning process seamless and stress-free. And also owinmo provided us a complimentary room for night stay and room condition was really good too. We are much more happier with our decision to have our reception at Owinmo. It truly was the perfect venue for our special day and we highly recommend it to any couples looking for a top-notch wedding experience. Thank you, Owinmo!

Good location. The access path is not the best though. Attended a wedding there and hall was good. Lighting good have been done in a better way though, my opinion. The washrooms, buffet, hall deco were all top notch. The highlight for me was the food. All the dishes were absolutely amazing. Main courses, desserts and appetizers all were great! Hats off to the chefs. The car park is suffirciently large and there is an extra car park as well. Garbage could be smelled from one of the car parks though. Which was not a big issue but still would have been better if it wasn't there. I guess the staff could have been more efficient. There were some times where it was hard to get something done and common sense was not present. It also consisted of a swimming pool and an outdoor restaurant, both which looked great. All in all it's an attractive place and will not hesitate to visit again for a meal or to spend the day
