"clean, professional, exactly like the pictures. peaceful."
"nothing."
"I loved that it was beach front and the bathroom was clean and I had a desk, and side tables and free coconut water daily (but had to ask in advance)"
"The beach wasn’t the best and the sun beds were in the shade so it was pretty chilly if I wanted to read my book and I was wet. Breakfast options could also be improved."
"Directly on the beach, Very quiet place. Staff very friendly and efficient"
"Aucun."
"2 swimming pools. One that is very shallow which is great for the smaller children. The other is shaded by trees during certain parts of the day. Good value restaurant and a quick walk to other hotels should you want some variety."
"Our shower head had some issues, other than that no complaints."
"Staff was great at taking in feedback regarding personal preferences. It feels like being part of a group here rather than an impersonal hotel."
"The staff is becoming more and more senior everyday and they are learning a lot."
"I loved everything regarding this location, starting from the wonderful people who work there, the clean comfy rooms, the garden, the pools, even the cats :-) The staff is beyond friendly and helpful, we felt like a family, at home. They were always eager to help us out or fulfill our wishes. When the driver we paid and contracted stood us up and we needed to get urgently to the airport, Maryam and Calvin did everything in their power to find a driver asap, so that we wouldn't miss our flight. They were so accommodating, that they even gave us an extra room for our friend, so that we all have a comfortable stay! What more could anyone wish for! I recommend this place to anyone willing to come to Zanzibar and I will definitely go there, if I ever plan a trip to Zanzibar again!"
"Nothing at all"
"Everything we were upgraded to huge rooms which were suitable for the kids, workers were kind Nd receptive Facility was next to the beach so we loved that"
"Loved everything, needs improvement with meal options but our stay was otherwise perfect"

"Veramente favoloso! La posizione è perfetta per raggiungere il nyerere National park. Il proprietario è gentilissimo e molto disponibile, ha organizzato per noi la visita al parco. Anche lo staff è preparato e gentilissimo. Lavorano al campo anche dei Masai che ti accompagnao la sera in camera e ti aiutano con le valige. La struttura affaccia direttamente sul fiume in una posizione sicura e rialzata e da qui si può organizzare un safari in barca della durata di circa due ore in cui si possono vedere coccodrilli, vari tipi di uccelli e ippopotami. La vista dalla camera è dalla zona comune è spettacolare. La camera è pulita e spaziosa e con una vista meravigliosa. Ulteriore nota positiva è il cibo, cucinato internamente sul fuoco e veramente buonissimo. Ogni dettaglio del campo, dagli alloggi alla cucina, è curato e garantisce un'esperienza immersiva. Riassumendo....meraviglioso e fortemente consigliato."

"Friendly host, clean and spacious room, perfect location for a flight (and still just 15 min by car to the city center). Would stay again!"

"The value here was phenomenal. Nice hotel right next to the center of Stonetown but off the main tourist path enough that it feels quiet and secluded. Great shower and decent size room."
"Clean and the hosts always available for anything needed."
