We loved everything about the hotel. Our room - a junior suite with a beach view and balcony - was gorgeous and very large. There was a view of the ocean from every room, including the shower, and the room was very clean and comfortable in every way. The restaurant is also excellent as is the bar (better cocktails than most places in East Africa). Our favorite dish was the ceviche, but everything was great. The pools, lobby, lounging areas were all beautiful as well. Also appreciated the friendly and helpful staff, who arranged activities including a snorkeling and dolphin trip to Mmemba atoll. The hotel also offers excellent massages onsite and a free yoga class twice a week. We just loved everything about this hotel and would happily return here. ##### Julia Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ailsa 28 Jun 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities No hot water ##### Ailsa Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nobuyuki 8 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely and cozy place Stunning. Beautiful location and attentive staff. Highly recommended. 素晴らしい滞在でした。スタッフがとても親切で、あらゆることに迅速かつ個別に対応してくれました。目の前に白浜のビーチがあり、いるかと泳げることで有名なムネンバ島はすぐそば。潮の流れを見て午前6時にヴィラの目の前から出発するプライベートツアーをアレンジしてくれ、混雑前にいるかと泳ぐ夢が叶いました。こじんまりしたヴィラですが、敷地内は花に溢れ、食事も美味しく、スパも心地良かったです。家族で滞在する欧米人が多く、アットホームで静かな雰囲気を堪能しました。 ##### Nobuyuki Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Romke 15 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Verry good room seaside, good food , friendly service ##### Romke ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin 9 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### Martin Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elisabeth 1 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness ##### Elisabeth Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### James 19 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### James Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Eric 9 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Definitely not a luxury property but very comfortable with a great relaxed vibe, well trained staff and good food.

Vi hadde halvpensjon og var veldig fornøyd med både frokost og 3-retters middag. Leilighet med sjøutsikt var topp. Eneste å trekke for var at aircondition i vår leilighet var litt svak. ##### Finn Arne Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ingrid 25 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hyggelig opphold, med trivelig personale. Juicen var utvannet, men ellers var maten god. Vanskelig å bade i havet, men nydelig strand. ##### Ingrid Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ingrid Winsnes 24 May 2024 ##### Ingrid Winsnes Stayed 10 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jorgen 3 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Mycket fint bemötande på hela hotellet. Frukosten begränsad med liten variation. Stranden fantastisk. Nära att gå in till lokal bebyggelse. Perfekt start på våra tre veckor på Zanzibar då vi bodde på ytterligare tre ställen.
