great service very helpful maybe because we were there in the rainy season so there were fewer visitors but in fact there were probably more receptionists and cleaners than people in the hotel, this resulted in a very complex factory even royal treatment of hotel visitors, staff very helpful my wife had a stomach ache on the last day they advised and gave medicines from the pharmacy in the price we received a massage, highly recommended Great brekfast 👌 Dagmara & Daniel

The hotel is really beautiful. It is brand new (they opened in December 24), so everything in the rooms works and is new as well. The hotel is a bit away from the busy tourist center (about 15 min walk on the beach) but there are nice bars and restaurants in the area as well. Every night kids come out to play soccer on the beach and with the lights it‘s just magical. The team is so kind, we were very happy to stay here! Prices are fair as well, the fish is always fresh (you can see the fisherman bringing it every morning) and the team can help you with everything. We would love to stay here again.

Amazing place to relax, great hospitality, and a very comfortable large bed. Clean rooms, beautiful surroundings with local plants. Very nice pool and relaxing area. The restaurant serves really good food, not to mention breakfast, you get with the price of the room. Host Ahmet and Ersoy are very professional and friendly. They would go the extra mile to make your stay perfect. The best place to stay in Nungwi,with 2 minutes walk to the beach.

The location of the accommodation right on the beachfront was phenomenal, with amazing sunrises every morning reminiscent of an English breakfast. The hosts were always quick to respond and help. The room was very clean and tidied up daily. The air conditioning in the room, especially on an island where it gets hot, is fantastic. Soap, shampoo, and towels were always available upon request, which made for a pleasant stay for travelers.

What's not to like. A lovely introduction by Iman which was a first in Zanzibar. A perfect spot right on the beach, breakfast overlooking the ocean. .. perfect. Breakfast was delicious and satisfying. Plenty of loungers cushions and parasols for shade. An added bonus was an off licence just round the corner to purchase a cold beer 🍺 whilst Watching the evening sunset. Lots of restaurants a stone's throw away if you don't eat in the hotel. Although we ate elsewhere the food in the hotel looked yummy....
