Liked the place, it was relaxing and worked for me. The location of the hotel was secluded, so close to a lush garden setting, and Matemwe, Nungwi. Also, the distance to Kiwengwa Beach was only 1 km. Had a superb stay here.

We had a great time staying at a peaceful and relaxing hotel in Zanzibar. The location was ideal for our snorkeling trip to Matemwe and Nungwi, and we loved the nearby beach with its tidal changes. The room was comfortable and clean, with a spacious bathroom and breathtaking views. The service was exceptional, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We enjoyed a delicious and filling breakfast every morning, and even had the chance to play the traditional game of Bao.
We were slightly disappointed by the slow service at the restaurant.
