Good breakfast, excellent emplacement and good food
29.11.2025 Mazhit
Good hotel.
28.05.2025 Guest
Location is by the sea. Facilities and services are average.
03.02.2025 Anonymous
Even the room with no sea view from the balcony (see video) was sold as a sea view room; the check-out time was set before 10 am, which was unheard of; there were a lot of complaints...
26.01.2025 Guest
Very ok, I will carry your luggage for you throughout the trip

The price/performance ratio is good for an all-inclusive hotel in Zanzibar. The beach outside the hotel is very beautiful. The sunset is super beautiful. I spent three nights happily.

The photos are pretty good, but the actual situation is average. It is said to be a place with a sense of style and antiquity, but I think the price-performance ratio is quite poor. One person lives in a very large room, and you have to climb up to each of the three beds. The windows are not tightly closed. There are fans and air conditioners, but I feel that the noise is quite loud.
The attitude of the front desk to yellow skin is average, mainly Europeans and Americans. The restaurant downstairs is very expensive. A coconut outside is 1/3 of the price here. The weather is relatively cool, and I did not go swimming. The location is not bad, and it is very convenient to walk to the beach to watch diving.

If you like the local style, this hotel is the best among the hotels and is highly recommended. Because it is right by the sea, there will be crows as your companions during the open breakfast. If you are afraid, just sit under the eaves!
29.08.2024 Guest
The room is very big and the electrical appliances are Chinese brands! The beach is right at the door, so it's convenient to go out to the sea. The hotel has three swimming pools and the children had a lot of fun. It's very convenient to go to Stone Town, just a few steps away.
18.02.2024 Guest
The overall feeling is good, but the network is not good and it is a bit far from the swimming pool.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
