    Our trip was lovely, would like to go back there again. The hotel had a savoury and delicious breakfast with plenty of items to choose from. Thanks to the superfriendly stuff everything was really good. Every detail, the service was good and the staff where ready to help. The location of the property was stunning and amazing, early on a day trip or to the airport.

    The location turned out to be stunning and excellent, not far from Safari in Tanzania, the nearby restaurants and local "souvenir shops ", and very well kept garden.

    This hotel is a hidden gem nestled right on the beach with lovely verandas to watch the sunsets. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with extra touches that made it feel like a beautiful escape. The staff are friendly and attentive, ensuring that every need is met. Breakfast is served with a calming view, making it a perfect start to the day.

    All was perfect, couldn't ask for anything more.

    This hotel boasts a prime location right on the beach and within close proximity to restaurants and excursion pick up points. the beautifully kept rooms feature charming decor and come equipped with mosquito netting and repellent spray. the friendly staff provides excellent service and the breakfast buffet is delicious. Guests can enjoy swimming in one of the two clean pools or relaxing on the beach with amazing sunrise views.

    The persistent beach vendors can be bothersome wanting a peaceful beach experience.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was extremely convenient, with easy access to the airport, spice farms, and Stone Town. The staff worked really hard to ensure that my experience was top-notch. The room was clean and comfortable, and I appreciated the range of amenities provided. The onsite restaurant offered delicious meals, and I particularly enjoyed the breakfast spread. The hotel also had a spa and wellness center, which was a great way to relax and unwind. I couldn't fault the service or facilities here.

    This hotel is highly recommended to all.

    Spending Christmas at a boutique hotel by the beach was an unforgettable experience. We appreciated the complementary Christmas dinner with live music, and the breakfast in bed with a complimentary bottle of champagne on Christmas morning. the location was great, with stunning views of the ocean and two pools to relax by. We also enjoyed the variety of lounging options available, from beach chairs to daybeds.

    The lack of options for activities outside of the hotel. the area was quite remote, which meant there were limited options for dining and shopping.
