This is by far the best resort in Zanzibar, everything was beyond our expectations. The beach and the views are absolutely incredible, very rich breakfast, extremely delicious food, very clean and luxurious villa and everything is TOP!!! The fire on the beach at sunset is brilliant and we felt very safe, the staff is really doing their best. Your only regret will be when you leave. PS: we really loved yoga with Claudia

The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are huge and it feels like home. Beautifully located on the beach and what makes this hotel so special is the presence of the manager and the amazing staff! We have rarely felt as comfortable as we do here and we have never experienced such an attentive and present manager and we have stayed in many luxury hotels. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive and eager. Our flight was postponed to very late, the Manager Tuan Thasleem Juhara knew that we had to do our checkout the next day and offered us a free late checkout including dinner! We were able to stay in our room until late, enjoy our last day to the fullest at the beach, watch the last sunset, have a shower in our room and enjoyed our last dinner with no rush and then checed out. Simply fantastic and so generous! From the staff at the reception, in the restaurant, bars, gardeners, room cleaners to the manager they are all great and go the extramile! Thank you all for doing such a great job and making us fall in love with you! You really miss these people when you leave this place! Hakuna Matata!

The hotel was in a wonderful setting, and the staff were very kind, helpful, and friendly. The food was always delicious and fresh, and the oceanfront was perfect. I would like to especially mention Omar at the reception, and while all the waitstaff were kind, if I'm spelling the name correctly, Punda was our favorite. 🥰

perfect location on the best beach in zanzibar. Beautiful:) loads of activities like boat trips, hair braiding, spa treatments, and all the water sports. not to mention the incredible sunset. We got the bungalow, right next to the beach with a plunge pool, and enjoyed it throughly. If we come back to zanzibar, will definitely book that kind of room again.
