Beautiful place of the highest quality with attention to every detail. It feels like a jungle, full of tropical plants and harmless animals. Fantastic pool and an amazing jetty into the ocean, overlooking the transparent water, low and high tides, and colorful sunsets. Our room was huge and super clean, with everything we could ask for, including a well equipped bathroom. The room was cleaned all the time, towels were replaced and everything we asked for was answered positively. The staff is extremely nice and helpful, and they were very flexible and generous with our check-in and check-out times. The chef made a vegetarian menu specifically for us with delicious food full of thought and good touch. Highly recommended.

The place was so amazing its difficult to express in words. As we were approaching the area, it looked like it was in the middle of nowhere and then bang, the most amazing property came up, to say it was a surprise was an understatement. The rooms were perfect, location was actually perfect. everything was just perfect. The restaurant is a bit slow so order early but apart from that everything was super unreal. Also they have a horses stable adjoining the property where you can ride a horse and take it into the water. totally unreal. words cant express enough just how amazing this place is.

What an absolute gorgeous gem of a hotel in Stone Town. Truly authentic building and decor and incredible bedrooms. I stayed in the ‘Kate’ room which was utterly delightful. Beautiful private terrace overlooking the town, enormous bedroom (beautifully decorated) and an open-air bathtub adjoining. Super private. Gorgeous to wake up in the morning and open the doors and feel the breeze filter through. Beautiful bed linen and towels (woven locally) and handmade soaps. If you are into aesthetics, then this is the place for you. I can’t say enough to rate the hotel. All the staff were absolutely delightful and super attentive (as a single female traveller it was very much appreciated). The Manager was extremely kind and friendly. Also organised a fantastic private tour of the town for me which was brilliant. The rooftop restaurant is to die for. The best, authentic and freshest of food I have ever eaten.The taster plate experience with sunset and cocktails was dreamy. Amazing views and ambiance. Didn’t want it to end! The Secret Garden restaurant is also absolutely worth a visit. I attended on a Friday evening when there was live music being performed. Truly magical. Again, the food was just amazing and the staff all super kind.

The most spectacular place I have stayed at during my visit to Zanzibar. Did not realise the room did not have it's private bathroom upon booking, but that was not a problem at all, since this hotel is so convenient, clean and well kept. Local soap bars that were gifted to us was such a pleasant surprise, as well as delicious welcome drinks, incredible breakfast. Could not recommend this place enough, how pleased we were with everything.

This is one of my favorite hotels on the island. I love coming here and I’m always welcomed with open arms. The staff, the food are the rooms are just amazing. I always have to have at least 1 night here when I come to Zanzibar. The whole crew of staff are so professional and the hospitality is amazing. 😁
