The staff in Reception and at the breakfast buffet were outstanding. Very friendly and efficient. The food at the buffet was very good and had a huge selection. The spa was a disappointment. It was not clean and I was charged double the price for the service I requested, and did not even receive all that the service was supposed to have included.

Beautiful premises, friendly staff and excellent service
Beautiful property and fun water park. Spacious rooms, nicely decorated and very clean. Friendly, professional staff with smiling faces. I caught a beautiful sunset at the pier!
An amazing hotel and property! Has a water park for kids. Has a great staff and hospitality. Definitely a great place to vacation and close to stone town.
A beautiful hotel in a lovely location, the staff stood out for us, kind and thoughtful. The management team was missing throughout our 4 day stay not 1 manager greeted us or checked in on our stay, luckily the junior team made up for this. Wonderful breakfast presentation and rooms are very clean!
Excellent property with great amenities. Nice quiet location away from stone town. Definitely recommend for short stay while visiting Stone Town. You won't be disappointed
The food was excellent at this property. Chef Livingston prepared great food full of flavor. You could tell that he enjoyed his job. The property was very clean and the staff were very personable. I really appreciated the hotel’s efforts to sustainability.
If you are on business trip or leisure and you want to be close to city and airport this is ideal location. The rooms are huge and very cozy. All rooms have Sea View and it has number of small boats for rent... like for fishing etc. Over the weekend there is waterpark which comes to life and it is amazing.
The hotel staff were brilliant and we loved the hotel’s real commitment to sustainability. Meals (outside of breakfast) were not as good as expected and the hotel’s zero alcohol policy needs to be much more widely advertised rather than just a footnote
Beautiful beautiful beautiful! All rooms with an ocean view. An amazing pool. Children's water world with mega slide and so on. A fabulous gym and spa. Delicious food. Alcohol free. Only 4km from Stone Town.
Beautiful and spacious hotel. Rooms were absoulutely great and the balcony overlooking the sea were perfect, especially during sunset. Mind you that this hotel does not serve any alcohol since Zanzibar is Muslim. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Just a short Taxi ride to Stone Town but surrounding the hotel is little or nothing except for container and shipping facilities so there is not much to see if you want to take a walk out of the premises.
The staff was fantastic and very nice. The only issue might have been wanting a cold beer to go with dinner, as Zanzibar is VERY hot. I don’t they serve alcohol there?
The staff was very nice. The food was good. The rooms were nice.
Our only complaint was that we paid for three nights at over $300 a night but when we departed after two nights, the hotel refused to refund us for the last night. We’ve never had that happen before and it certainly soured our experience there. It would definitely make it difficult for us to refer it to other people.
For the cost of the rooms, the hotel is just not a very good value. Overall communication was lacking (we were not informed of a conference that would mean we could not even access the lobby, for example!), pool has very limited hours compared to comparable hotels I’ve stayed around the world, and the overall environment leaves a lot to be desired (“waterfront” area immediately adjacent to hotel has empty containers, piles of old tires, construction equipment, etc.). Room was fine - clean and safe.
