We had a unforgettable stay at miramont Retreat. The food amazing, super fresh and local. The breakfast was always made with love and our extra wishes always fulfilled. We had an one hour full body massage wich was very relaxing. But the best were the people who worked there, everybody was so lovely and welcoming and helpful. For example when you needed medical assistence,they did the best to get you natural medicine. We stepped into a sea urchin and got approached by a jellyfish when we were in nungwi and the people from the hotel literally did everything to comfort us. We always felt save and comfy. Pool and garden area are very beautiful, we saw a chameleon and a bushbaby. Miramont Retreat made to extended our stay because we loved it there so much. Greetings go out to everyone Julia & Laura

Bungalow supérieur à l'étage(B11,B12) très agréable entouré de végétation . Jardin très bien entretenu . Personnel de nettoyage efficace et toujours souriant . Par contre comme l'année dernière , petit déjeuner très moyen , en particulier le minuscule petit bol de fruits frais . Et certains matins le manque de lait , de pain ou de confiture paraît incroyable dans une telle structure !!! La literie est également à surveiller ainsi que la qualité de l'eau des piscines . C'est cependant un endroit que je conseillerais à des amis en espérant pour eux que mes remarques négatives seront prises en compte ...Merci d'avance .

Рай на земле)
При встрече нас на ресепшн нам сказали "Добро пожаловать в рай"! Так и есть! Это тихое и спокойное место, нет приставал, море в 50 м, прекрасная лаундж зона. Жили в номерах SW (с видом на море), GW (вид на сад), бунгало (приехали изначально на три дня, а дальше продлевали). Территория отеля очень компактная и уютная: 2 бассейна, 2 эт.ресторан,3эт.корпус (sw и gw) и 1/2этажные бунгало; территория охраняема круглосуточно; прекрасный зеленый сад. В номерах есть только самое необходимое: кровать с чистым бельем и полотенцами, кондеционер, раковина, душ, стеллажи для хранения, 2 тумбы, в корпусе также балконы со стульями. Есть вай фай,но медленный. Редко и ненадолго отключают электричество. У нас завтраки включены в стоимость,мы брали испанские: омлет, тост с гуакамоле, просто тост, овощная нарезка, тарелка с фруктами, чай/кофе/молоко/напитки сколько угодно. Ресторан работает до 22-23 часов, можно заказать покушать/выпить, алкоголь в том числе. Персонал очень отзывчив, улыбчив, решали все наши вопросы, говорят на английском. В отеле чаще всего останавливаются европейцы, небольшая часть русскоговорящих. Пляж песчаный, чистый, но большое количество водорослей. В океане бывают большие отливы, тогда можно прогуляться до рифа, но острожнее с ежами,их много. В приливы вода доходит до забора отеля. Прекрасное место за свои деньги! Спасибо персоналу за комфортный отдых!

Pleasant
The location is nice & quiet but far from the airport & the port. Nice & clean beach on the front. The staff are amazing, friendly & helpful but the restaurant needs to improve on their service eg they did not have teabags when we asked during breakfast. We had dinner twice & we loved it. We had breakfast every morning but it wasn’t filling. The rooms are clean & spacious but do not have kettles & tea/coffee. Beautiful place with amazing views. Overall pleasant stay, i highly recommend it& we are definitely going back in summer.

We got charged for everything constantly, the waitresses and managers were rude, insisted and didn‘t comply to wishes, the electricity was off for 3 days while we were there: toilet and shower weren‘t working, no lights and no air con, no wifi either. The food was okay and cheap but the overall quality and atmosphere was disappointing.
