Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and well-designed rooms that felt 'homey', which were comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated with a huge balcony. The service was extremely friendly and helpful, making my stay truly enjoyable. The location is excellent, especially being at what I believe is the best stretch of beach in Zanzibar. The dining experience was good with daily specials, albeit with a minor room for improvement in variety. Overall, a stylish and nicely done hotel with great value for money.
The hotel is in a perfect location, right on Jambiani Beach, offering a peaceful and relaxing environment. The rooms are spacious and modern, the staff provides incredible service, and the dining experience is amazing with a delicious restaurant menu. However, the lack of air conditioning in the deluxe room made the first night challenging due to high humidity.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were not only spotless and charming but also filled with surprising details that added to the stylish atmosphere. However, the ventilation could have been better. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff always ready to assist. The location was incredible, offering a quiet and relaxing environment close enough to explore. The dining experience, although perfect with new choices daily, came at an additional cost. The hotel grounds were beautiful and perfectly maintained.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with its beautiful location near Jambiani and super neat surroundings. The rooms were comfortable, but could use better ventilation. The staff, including the owner, were incredibly kind and helpful. The dining experience was enjoyable overall, though more variety would have been great. The facilities were well-maintained, making my vacation truly relaxing.
