Great place if you look for some peace and quiet - the rooms are at the back from the hustle of kiwengwa beach - but you still get a good view from the restaurant and certain angles of upstairs. The staff was friendly albeit limited English and accommodating when I asked for services (which of course I paid for, only fair!). The place was very clean and the food is good. Some power cuts and the re-start had been variable - but in Zanzibar this is not exceptional.

Very remote from STONE TOWN!
Very nice Hotel. No beach view trees are blocking the view. More like beach is in front of the hotel a few steps down the hill. It took me one hour to a from my hotel to all my tours. One bottle of sprite was $2 US. Food was OK. Staff was very helpful. Food was overpriced recommendation. Eat in town if you can but when you basically 1 hour away fro. Any where i guess u have to pay high prices. The Pros: White sand beach. Very nice comfortable bed with mosquito net. The Cons: To much mosquitos for me. To far from all the action. And the bath water was salty and smelt like the Ocean. The Wifi was horrible had to sit close to the kitchen to try and upload pic or message family. And the mosquitos where waiting for me. I asked for bug spray and they couldnt fund it? Oh No back in my room i went. It was ☔ season they are suppose to have a barrel load of spray ava. To their guest. Nice place but not for me.

Piccola struttura a fianco del villaggio Bravo, molto pulito e curato, il ristorante bar annesso con la colazione compresa è un plus in più. Possibilità di pranzare o cenare, pesce freschissimo, grigliate miste eccellenti a prezzi abbordabili, personale che parla bene l'italiano e si adopera per risolvere problemi. Sarebbe auspicabile maggiore cura nel dettaglio, magari pulire lo spazio prospiciente la spiaggia, come fanno gli altri vicino.

A fantastic stay, everything has been perfect and the two owners are so nice and helpful. The Wi-Fi doesn't work very well, but it seems normal in such a "remote" place. For the rest, the place is very nice and clean and the staff is amazing, and the hotel is very close to the best beach in Zanzibar in my opinion. Amazing stay!
