The owner was not hospitable. There was an issue with my payment and even though I could prove that I paid, she refused to accommodate me and made me pay for my accommodation twice. Booking.com was aware of this but she refused.

The staff really made my stay phenomenal! It was the best holiday I’ve ever had. Everyone was kind, compassionate, generous and always willing to assist. They do such a wonderful job keeping the place beautiful and you can count on them to make you feel special! I spent my 30th birthday there and they made it the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER! Thank you Edwin, Edna, Doreen, Monica, Lucy, Faraja, Subira and Joy!

Nothing. It was perfect.

The food was amazing and plentiful. Huge choice for breakfast. Fresh juice. Dinner options with cold beer. Rooms, pool and property clean. The beach was stunning, with amazing sunrises. Staff ensured we had a relaxing stay, including Edina the Customer Relationship Manager, Edwin the Manager, Dora, cleaning staff and Lucy the great chef. They organise excursions and massages. Highly recommended if you want a more intimate great value holiday.

Maybe that the room was a little more worn than on the pictures, but otherwise nothing worth mentioning.

The place was clean and very quiet (partly because we came at low season, but partly because the hotel has its own beachfront). The staff gave us a friendly welcome and they were very attentive during our stay, always making sure we were comfortable, even chatting and discussing the local culture and customs, so we could have a clue of how people lived in the area. We were the only ones there at the time, so we had the whole place to ourselves, which gave an extra luxurious feeling. The meals were also extraordinary - I booked this site partly because it has its own restaurant and bar, so we didn't have to worry about having a meal any time, but soon we found ourselves comparing each other restaurant and saying that the food was best here. After cleaning the room was decorated with flowers. The wifi was a bit slow, but working well, even in case of an electricity blackout they turned the generator on so we would always have wifi and running water. It was so relaxing to chill on the beach, watching the waves and the local people going about their day, their children playing on the ocean side.

The rooms might be a bit small, but they are perfectly adequate for a couple.

A modest but truly beautiful place, full of charm. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful — perfect for unwinding. Everything is well taken care of thanks to the tireless work of Edina and Dori, two outstanding professionals who are always there for anything you need. I truly hope life brings them only good things. The hotel has a private beach with sunbeds and loungers, ideal for relaxing by the sea. The homemade food is excellent, and I highly recommend booking half board — it’s absolutely worth it. They also offer excursions directly from the hotel, which makes planning activities easy and stress-free. A simple yet authentic experience. I would definitely come back.

We love this place! They welcomed us with lovely flower arrangements up on our arrival, and local fruits. The room was clean and well kept. The place is quiet and relaxing. The food was great, everything fresh and a large choice. Now for the service, everyone went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. We celebrated our wedding aniversary and they were very intentional in preparing our moment. Thank you so much Bovly, Edwin, Dori, Edina, Lucy and all the staff members (sorry I don’t know all the names). We recomend this place 300%

The aircon could be a little more effective.

Very beautiful hotel located right by the beach in a quiet area of Zanzibar. Perfect place to start your Zanzibar vacation if you need to destress and just look at the ocean. The highlight was however the staff. So sweet and always ready to help you. Edina, you are a sweetheart.

Just an amazing stay. Tina, the host, is incredibly attentive and helpful with everything, so is the staff (special thanks to Edina). Room was massive, clean, with all amenities and nice views to the pool and beach; restaurant opens till late and offers a fair variety of options in the menu. Feels like a resort with everything in it, but the opposite of crowded, which is great. Also, the area is quiet and well located in the island. We will definitely recommend it to any friend that visits Zanzibar.

When it’s crowded the food takes a bit longer

Nice small and quiet hotel at the beach. The room was really clean. There were comfortable beds directly at the beach. The people were friendly and the food was good.

Perhaps if I could have stayed longer.

It was worth travelling all the way from the USA just totaste Tina's deserts. The drivers provided for the excursions were very friendly and provided a lot of information about the society they lived in. The staff were very friendly, and may I say, beautiful. The beach location was very convenient

The internet is abit slow, but you can still work ie ZOOM Calls are ok.

The staff were amazing! Edwin and his team were super nice! Mwalimu & Edina are always smiling, I really felt at home. I would suggest the onion rings with cheese samosas. They have really good vegetarian options. The pool and beach are literally 3 steps from the room.
