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.

Beautiful villas on a stunning beach. The staff were all incredibly friendly and the food was excellent! Chef Kailash went out of his way to make the dining experience memorable. Simba the cat was really cute and friendly. We will miss him. Definitely recommended staying here.

The house was beautiful and clean! The house manager Issac was very helpful and personable. He arranged all of our shuttle needs and answered any questions we had. All of the staff and housekeeping were very nice and we felt safe at all times. The pool was very refreshing, and there are rooftop views where you can watch the sunset! I would definitely stay here again.

    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....
