I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The property is located right on a beautiful sandy beach with crystal-clear turquoise waters, making it the perfect spot to relax. The breakfast was a pleasant surprise, offering a good variety of options like meats, fresh fruits, and eggs made to order—though it’s not a buffet. The room was spacious and exceeded my expectations, and the bathroom was equally roomy. The water pressure was great, and I had a lovely sea view from the balcony. Internet was fast and reliable throughout my stay, which made working remotely a breeze. Plus, the hotel has a generator, so there were no issues with power outages. During the day, I enjoyed working in a quiet, shaded area of the hotel, and in the evenings, I dined on fresh seafood with wine right on the patio by the sea—such a special experience. The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing a detailed note with local price tips to avoid being overcharged, and sharing some great information about the island. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing, stress-free stay with good service and a beautiful setting!

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....
