    Appreciated having a safe box, coffee/tea making equipment, and a sitting area in the reasonably spacious room. Walk-in showers in the private bathroom was a plus. The location was stunning and particularly good, just off the Furaha local restaurant or Bob garden Swahili restaurant.

    Hotel as a whole is charming, I liked it.

    All wonderful, everything you need for the trip. The hotel rooms are brand-new and well-maintained with African style and a nice big balcony and a beautiful huge bed dominating a simple. Its location is favourable, not far from the restaurant and the beaches.

    I had such a relaxing stay at this hotel on the beautiful beach. The location is perfect, situated between two villages and right on the sea. I loved being able to just jump into the nice warm water whenever I wanted. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and a nice big balcony where I could enjoy the great views. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast in the morning was plentiful and delicious.

    The only thing that could be improved was the lack of curtains in some of the rooms, which made it a bit difficult to have privacy.

    This hotel is a hidden gem, nestled in between two charming villages and right on the beautiful beach. The location is simply stunning, with a nice big balcony offering breathtaking views of the sea. The hotel's attention to detail is commendable, from the well-kept garden with hammocks to the friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are basic but comfortable, and the big balcony is a great place to relax and enjoy the view. The breakfast served here is a real treat, with fresh juice, a variety of eggs, and lovely extras like cooked vegetables and salad.

    Everything was absolutely perfect, couldn't ask for more!

    I had an amazing 5-day stay at a beautiful beach resort in Zanzibar. The location was perfect, right on the beach with stunning views. The room was spacious and comfortable, and I loved the large deck overlooking the ocean. The swimming at high tide was fantastic, like swimming in a warm tub. The hammocks in the yard were a great place to relax and read. The staff, especially Rebecca, were friendly and attentive, always making sure I had everything I needed. The restaurant/bar had a good wifi connection, and the food was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast buffet and the fish with lime dressing. I also had a memorable experience swimming with dolphins on a boat hired through the resort. I highly recommend this beach resort for a peaceful and enjoyable stay.

    The location was fine, very close to the Matemwe village which gave us the opportunity to explore it. The beach was beautiful and quiet, perfect for relaxing. We had a room next to the beach with a gorgeous view, it was quite spacious and the bathroom was okay. The staff was kind and accommodating, they even asked if there was anything they could do to make our stay better. The breakfast was good, they had a variety of food and everything was fresh. The wi-fi connection was decent, which helped us to stay connected with family and friends.

    I have to say that the restaurant service could be improved, sometimes it took a while for them to bring the food.

    Pro: The resort offers a serene and authentic Zanzibar experience with a stunning beachfront location, comfortable rooms, and a beautiful pool area. The staff, including Cara, Jamal, and Awazi, were extremely helpful and friendly, ensuring a smooth check-in and providing efficient arrangements for activities and transport. The restaurant staff, such as Aysha, Harriet, and Jessica, were professional and the food was excellent. The resort is well-maintained with beautiful landscaping and the Maasai show on the beach was unforgettable.

    Felt welcomed and comfortable throughout the stay, with staff going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience.

    The bungalow had a private beach terrace, perfect for sunbathing all day long. The bar served refreshing drinks and the resort had a dive center. They even had a garden with yummy fruits. Getting there was a breeze, just a short one-hour drive.

    I didn't like. oh wait, I can't think of anything negative.
