Brigitta, Mar 2025
Pros (+) Very nice little resort on a serene faraway corner of the island. The food was great, the room was cozy with nice views and "Beachcomber Style" decor. And the best cocktails we had in Zanzibar! We booked half board which was a good deal, as their all-inclusive package is quite overpriced. Note that the place is really isolated, there is not much to do around, but I think that is the charm of it.
Cons (-) The first day we had no water in the room, which they fixed when we complained. From then on we had brackish water coming from the tap, which was rather unpleasant. They offer free activities, like SUP, but it was so deflated it was impossible to use it. We also tried to do the free dhow cruise they offer but the lady at the reception told us we could only go on the day when we were leaving alread...

Pros (+) The hotel is beautiful, both the rooms and the external common spaces. At lunch the fish of the day is very good. There are two free activities offered: the local village tour and the snorkeling dow trip. The hotel also organises other trips for all the main attractions that Zanzibar offers, which you can book even the night before. The property cared to clean the beach from the weeds one morning ...
Cons (-) Staff doesn’t know how to manage clients’ problems, always asking other members of staff what to do, promises to send maintenance to the room, then forgets. We had to ask for a room change because of the hideous conditions of the room, they hadn’t even thought about offering us this solution. When you ask for new beach towels, they tell you they will bring them to you immediately at the room, but ...

Mariann, Feb 2025
Pros (+) Nice, relatively small hotel. Beautiful Garden, spacious Restaurant and Bar area. The pools are fantastic and very clean. Good location, right at the beach, but the ocean is not very clean at the shore. Would recommend the tour organized by the hotel to the village, including schools. Breakfast and dinner is ok, though the buffet is never as good as á la cart. The Staff is excellent.
Cons (-) There is nothing

Pros (+) Great variety of food and plenty to eat Christmas and new year were exceptional efforts for which we thank them Friendly staff and usually smiling GOOD EXPERIENCE THANK YOU
Cons (-) The mattresses on the beds need to be turned periodically as they indent easily with repetitive use They should consider a small shop as they have a captive clientele with little or no alternative Brand their products and these would sell as mementos of the visit All staff should have name badges so it is polite to address them by their names at all times

Pros (+) It is a beautiful place!! All so well mantained! Nice restaurant and great food! Staff is really nice and friendly!
Cons (-) We had a dinner around the pool with a show and before the show finished the staff already started taken the lights and decoration from the tables! At certain point I went to the toilet with my kid and came back and my table was gone!! Really strange! All the staff carrying things around in front of the show!

Trine, Jul 2024
Pros (+) Everything at this hotel is simply amazing. Me and my partner was trying to find the perfect spot for wedding, and the staff and manager at this hotel made it happen with a very short notice. The setup was so beautiful, and they went above and beyond to make this day special. When we arrived they had decorated the whole room with beautiful romantic decorations and music. The staff was so nice and ...
