    This hotel is good, and has everything I need, from free Wi-Fi and a beautiful infinity pool to 24-hour reception. The staff helped me with a wake-up call during my first stay, which I remember fondly. Highly recommend it!

    The hotel is clean, nestled in the really beautiful building with very good staff. Amazing location close to activities like Botcha and water aerobics and as one to consider. Also, in a quiet area. The beachside restaurant for all meals.

    Stayed for 5 nights, the hotel was wonderful and fairly clean, it had best possible and ideal location interested in such sights. Loved the room for the sheet, my bed was comfortable. Location: the property was short walk to the inclusive activities led by enthusiastic and friendly stuff: water aerobic, sunset yoga, volley-ball and canoeing, the most beautiful beaches in Zanzibar, and Zanzibar, and the mainland - Tanzania...

    The beautiful gardens surrounding the pools were enchanting. Pathways were easy to navigate, ensuring I could explore comfortably. The staff were cute and always eager to assist.

    infinity pool
    live entertainment
    extra cost drinks

    I loved lounging by the infinity pool and enjoying the live entertainment each night. There's a fantastic spa with amazing massages and a beautiful beachfront to unwind on. Just a heads up, some drinks come at an extra cost, but it didn't ruin my awesome stay 🌴

    shaded lounging spots
    lack of shade

    The kids loved the beautifully maintained pools, and we enjoyed the fine beach view from our room. The staff was great.

    A fine getaway!

    Just came back from an amazing 3-night stay! The beach was beautiful, and the staff really took care of us. Shoutout to Mr Muru for his kindness! The food was good, especially at the Cliff restaurant, but the buffet could've been better. Rooms were spacious and clean! Def a place I'd return to!

    beautiful environment
    friendly staff
    shabby furniture
    maintenance issues
    cleanliness problems

    An excellent hotel with a fine environment and friendly staff, but the experience was marred by significant maintenance issues. The scenery and large pool were nice touches, and breakfast featured fresh products that were enjoyable. The state of the room left much to be desired, with shabby and worn furniture, cleanliness issues in the bathroom, and a noticeable lack of concern from management regarding the whole situation.
