I was delighted with my stay at this hotel. The rooms were truly amazing, spacious, and comfortable, with lovely views right onto the beach. The private balcony was a highlight for me, and the bathroom had everything I could have wanted. The location was perfect, being right by the beach, and the service was extremely friendly and welcoming. However, the dining experience, although excellent at the start, declined slightly towards the end of my stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of delight and disappointment. The beautifully decorated and spacious rooms allowed me to enjoy a private beach spot with deck chairs and hammock, but the lack of ventilation made the rooms too hot. The service was exceptional with welcoming and very smiling staff, though a few areas could use improvement. The idyllic location with an infinity pool and stylish furnishings surpassed my expectations, however, the remote setting made exploring Zanzibar a bit challenging. The dining experience was delicious with a variety of local fruits, yet some aspects fell short. Overall, a memorable stay with ups and downs.

The hotel blew us away with its spectacular location right on the sea. The rooms, while not exactly luxurious, were perfectly adequate and offered a good bed with a mozzie net cleverly draped. The service was incredibly generous, with staff willing to stop for a chat and the manager's dog even joining us on morning runs. The location provides a peaceful retreat, though it may be too remote for exploring Zanzibar easily. The dining experience was delightful, featuring a variety of local dishes and live music. Overall, the facilities were top-notch.

My stay at the hotel was truly an extraordinary experience. The rooms were big, clean, and very comfortable, providing a great sense of relaxation. However, the room standard did not quite match up to the high price point for the hotel. On the bright side, the view of the playing monkeys in the huge Baobab tree was simply spectacular, and the bed with a mozzie net cunningly draped added a charming touch without being right on the bed.

I fell in love with this hotel's rooms - they were massive and beautifully fitted, with a huge bathroom. The only downside was they tended to get too hot due to the lack of ventilation, but the private balcony and stunning beach views made up for it. The service was generally great, especially with the staff patiently teaching us Swahili. The location felt idyllic, perfect for relaxation with hidden corners to unwind, although a bit too remote for exploring Zanzibar easily.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. It felt like having our own charming hut right on the beach front. The service was extremely welcoming and attentive, and dining by candle and moonlight overlooking the Indian Ocean was a memorable experience. The location was picturesque, offering a serene private beach without any hassle to buy trinkets. The dining experience, although excellent initially, had a slight decline toward the end of our stay. Overall, a place I would definitely come back to for a relaxing getaway.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely amazing! The rooms were spectacular, right on the sea, and the bed with a mozzie net setup was so cleverly done to create a cozy cocoon free from mosquitoes. The location, underneath a 1000 year old baobab tree, was unique and charming, but the bumpy roads leading to the hotel were a minor inconvenience. The service was top-notch with the staff being incredibly friendly and accommodating. The dining experience offered a wide selection of delicious local dishes but was unfortunately accompanied by some insects. Overall, a wonderful stay with great value for money.
