Ada Foah is absolutely beautiful. We stayed at the resort there, which is made up of many thatched huts. If you're looking for first world amenities, then this is not your place. The floor inside is sand and it is not uncommon to see little crabs inside your room. Do not bring anything valuable that you plan on leaving in the room since the rooms only lock on the inside with a "security nail."
That said, if you're cool with roughing it a bit, you should come here. The atmosphere is very relaxed and it's one of the cleaner beaches in Ghana. Swimming isn't the best here as the waves are quite powerful, but the beach is perfect for sun bathing.
Oh, and don't forget to bring toilet paper!
