This is a new built hotel right on the beach with african boutique design. The area around is among local people and few other smaller hotels. You can feel the present of Zanzibar real life just walk 10 meters from hotel. Its a safe area. Of course you will get contacted by the masai and salesmen as anyware in the tourist area. But they also let you go if you are not interested. Me and my wife can really recommend you to go here. Why? Calm and friendly athmosphere. Well trained staff. Meet happy local people. Nice pool. Really good restaurang with reasonable price 10-16 dollar. Nice new room with fan and AC. Good cleaning everywhere. Good sunbeds, both on the beach and poolside. Free water during stay, really appreciated that. Nearby there are some good lunch places like ChiChi. Dinner at the hotel are at reasonable prices and very tasty. Great job, chef and staff. Breakfast is meeting all your needs, even including different choices like omelett etc. Great coffee aswell. Hotel offers tours, but we went to Mnemba Island by local guide for halfday incl lunch. Price on the beach 35-50 dollar ppx. for private boat. We swimmed with dolphins! Make that tour to Mnemba while you on the eastcoast. Hotel offers taxi from airport, 45 dollar. Local alternatives are also available to cheeper price. Best regards to staff and management, who has succeeded to make our stay so fantastic. Any inprovements? As in Africa, wifi is poor. During morning you got 3 mb down and in the evening 0.4 mb. You can surf, but no video/livestream. Thats it. Just go here if you want calm, relaxing holiday! We loved the place
