Beach Hotels in Stone Town

Very close to airport Very friendly owner Clean

Our host was friendly (edit: until she read this review and became dishonest and insulting) and generally available. She checked on us frequently and offered her help. The house and garden are spacious and well-decorated. The kitchen is well-equipped. The location is quiet and secure. Edit : Im sorry that you don’t accept any review which is not 10 out of 10 without calling your guest lier. I firstly gave good (7) but after your response my experience with this property and its host became disappointing (4). I informed you about the water in the kitchen on August 14th at 8:12am. You answered me at 8:14 “…I’ll pass by a bit later to show you how it works” assuming we misused the washing machine. I checked out on August 15th. The leak was reported more than one day before check out and not “a few hours before” as you claimed. That’s a shame we are not authorized to attach screenshot of watsapp conversation. It would show clearly who is the lier here. About the staff, you speak only about the cleaner which was effectively announced each times. The staff for the garden, the swimming pool and the roof came unannounced each times. That’s why I wrote “MOSTLY”. I understood that it didn’t disturb your other guests by reading other reviews that’s why I wrote “to our liking”. I can’t be more accurate than that. I’m sorry that you find my remark about outside activities (full moon party, quad, horse riding, sunset dhow cruise…) irrelevant but I disagree. In my opinion it’s connected to the property and especially its location. Most activities are located in Nungwi and Kendwa, it’s 1h30min far from the property and will cost 50$ by taxi each times. It’s my mistake to not check locations before. I just reviewed this to avoid others to do the same mistake. Lastly my comment about the beach is totally accurate, the property is “far from the beautiful beaches…” I never spoke about your advertisement or suggested anything about it. Your advertisement is totally accurate.

I will tell you that this is really the best place to be alone with yourself and alone with the service.Amazing cuisine, attentive staff (I do not know how they did it), perfectly designed houses, guys-this is love forever for what you have managed to do.Believe me, I have been living in Zanzibar for quite a long time.

Hotel was beautiful, location was perfect, and staff was very friendly. Rooms were spacious, and beds were comfortable. There were no mosquito nets but we had our own and there was a hook already on the ceiling - but to be honest, not sure if it was necessary as I hadn't seen or heard any mosquitos during our time there. Breakfast was fine, nothing exceptional. Also, we were a bit surprised there was no alcohol on the menu at the seating area next to the pool. We were very pleased with our stay here!

Loved everything. An beautiful and very 'Stone Town maze'-like hotel with tons of historical charm, beautifully decorated rooms, great breakfast, and wonderful staff. Absolutely recommend.

The location is very excellent.our room was a beach front suite..The staff were so great at what they do…they had a variety at the breakfast buffet

food was amazingly delicious plus staff were very good as well

Beautiful sanctuary from the hurry of the city. Wonderful ocean views and easy beach access. This is a tropical paradise. Easy access to local fish market, great place to see the dhows come in and out. Huts made of sustainable materials, yet all the modern conveniences you could want. The staff is super friendly, gentle souls, and helpful and feels like rafiki (friends). They serve breakfast right on your patio and have lunch and dinner options here. We had such good food that we would just ask Malik, the chef, to "surprise us." Jamal, the owner, is very friendly and helpful. He helped us arrange transportation to and from his lodge and has connections with tour companies to arrange any tour you might want to take.

Really wonderful place , lots to do here and all u need to have a fantastic relaxing vacation.

the staff were all really friendly and the ambiance was amazing
