I booked three nights here and got a great deal. All inclusive for €157 a night. I now know why. It was (very) low season, raining every day, and the place was virtually empty. (My fault accepted).The two major downsides are the location, as its miles from Stonetown, at least a $50 taxi ride, more if you book through the... More

Had a fantastic stay here April 5 - 7. I thought the rooms were beautiful and sparkling clean, especially compared to what I encountered on the rest of my African vacation. Service was slow but it is how they do things and after a while you get into the flow of it. The only downside for me was the location.... More

The hotel was beautiful situated at the beach in the north of Zanzibar. Big rooms with big beds, but our room smelled damp. The breakfast was great! We were disappointed about the service, especially in the reception desk.

It is one of the best hotels to stay in Zanzibar. Location is excellent and the Rooms have beautiful view of the Indian Ocean. Pool bar is best to start with. The Rooms are very clean and beds are most comforting. A must stay hotel.
