Stayed there the last day of my stay in Zanzibar and I’m never going back.. management need to up their game. No urgency, Poor reception, rooms too outdated, plugs need to be changed to multi sockets, water takes forever to warm up somehow, food average!! I really didn’t enjoy the 15 hours I spent there!

This property was ok I did not appreciate the arrival process how I like the spacious room and cleaning. I did not appreciate on an occasion the kitchen messing up the food. Also the area is not a safe area to walk around in
I was disappointed with my stay. I requested a late check-out for 2 PM, but the hotel charged me $40 for this, which felt unreasonable. The location is also far from the city center (about a 30-minute taxi ride, which is expensive) and the surrounding area feels unsafe and poorly lit. The breakfast was very disappointing – unhealthy options with limited choices. The balcony door in my room was weak and seemed easy to break open, which made me feel insecure. Additionally, the staff provided incorrect information during my stay, which caused confusion. Overall, the experience was not worth the
Pool is utilised as a leisure centre for locals. No hot water, toilet and telephone to reception didn’t work. Balcony doors would not lock. Food was average.
We did enjoy the quiet of the resort and staff. Anthony and his team in hospitality were excellent for what they had to work with. The Chef and Anthony created a wonderful meal for us on the waterfront viewing the sunset. Magnificent! The waterfront suites were comfortable and rustic island style. We had a nice rest. Thank you.
