Very lovely place, spacious and clean rooms, comfortable beds. We loved the relaxing pool/restaurant area. Great to connect with other guests. Free water available at all times. Great breakfast that is different every day and it has no end time. One day we had a very early tour and we had our breakfast at noon. Beach is also very close. Max was so helpful that he even organized us a driver to take us to Paje for two times less money than our planned taxi was going to be. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone! Ps. Our kids favourite part were the friendly dog and the cat.

This 4-star hotel offers a kids' club, room service and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy African and American dishes at the restaurant or have a cocktail at the bar. We loved everything about this hotel. This is a relatively new hotel and small hotel (only 6 rooms), located in a dreamed place with stunning ocean views from every room. The rooms are big and comfortable, beautifully designed and very well maintained. Restaurant/bar open from 7am to 11pm every day. Food is ok but we went in low season and the hotel was at half capacity so I think this might be better in high season, cocktails were really good. This is an ideal hotel if you are looking for a very quiet relaxing vibe, operated by their owners, on the beach (the hotel is design to live your holiday barefoot as all common areas are sand, don’t worry there’s a feet washer outside every room). Town is a nice 30 min walk down the beach only in low tide, or a USD 5 taxi/tuc tuc. We loved it so much that we end up cancelling another hotel we had in the north of the island just to stay more time here. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a super relaxed holiday, were you don’t need to leave the hotel if you don’t want to. Beautiful beach walks and amazing snorkel right there from the beach.

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.

Everything was delicious and I always was so full after breakfast. The location was perfect too, it takes around 7 mins to get to the beach. I would highly recommend this place for your vacation!
