Super consigliato
Pros:

Cortesia e gentilezza di tutto lo staff. Super accoglienza al nostro arrivo e bellissima sorpresa inaspettata per il nostro ultimo giorno nel resort. Ci siamo sentiti a casa. Inoltre vi é la disponibilità di fare escursioni private organizzate dal resort ( noi personalmente abbiamo scelto il tour del sud ed é stato bellissimo).

Cons:

Il resort si trova a kiwengwa che é un villaggio poco turistico, per cui la sera non é molto animata, ma se siete in cerca di tranquillità é sicuramente il posto giusto. Noi personalmente abbiamo vissuto poco la spiaggia di kiwengwa perché abbiamo scelto di fare escursioni fuori, ma é comunque una bella spiaggia, attrezzata, molto soggetta a maree, ma con meno Masai e beach boys rispetto alle spiagge del nord.

Un petit coin de pure bonheur ! Hakuna matata <3
Pros:

L’hôtel est bien situé, il n’y a que quelques chambre donc calme assuré ! Le personnel a été incroyable et très attentionné que se soit la femme de ménage avec ses petites attentions chaque matin, le cuisiner qu’on remercie encore pour ces crêpes ( on en a mangé des dizaines par jour), le jardinier ( qui a la demande de mon mari nous a fait une arche de fleur magique), la masseuse (très compétente), et surtout Lukas toujours là pour nous. Je reviendrai sans hésiter ! Et merci à la gérante qui n’était pas présente physiquement mais qui a quand même su être présente pour régler un de nos problèmes et nous surclassé !

Cons:

Il y a des fois des coupures d’électricité en fin de journée mais ce n’est pas que l’hôtel c’est l’île en général donc pas de problème !

Hadden er meer van verwacht gezien de prijs
Pros:

Luxe kamerven rust op park met maar 5 huisjes. Rond zwembad serene rust. Als compensatie voor ligging niet aan het strand wel 2 complementary massages gekregen.

Cons:

Ligt niet aan het strand als wij wel dachten bij booking. Ligt aan vuil straatje, dat je moet oversteken om bij strand te komen, wat wordt gesuggereerd een privé strand te zijn. Vergeet het maar, met veel locals dus ook op de ligbedden. Zee is hier heel erg warm.

Amazing staff and relaxing atmosphere
Pros:

We chose this hotel for its natural and relaxed atmosphere, hoping to rest properly and enjoy the sea and sun, and it was just perfect. The beach is only a one-minute walk away. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful from the moment of booking until check-out, showing great care and attention, especially on special occasions. Everything was spotless, both in the room and in the common areas. The location is ideal for relaxing by the beach or the swimming pool, and the Wi-Fi worked very well. They truly do everything possible to make your stay memorable. The highlight was the therapeutic massage by Miriam — she was amazing! Many thanks to Laura, Fatima, Lucas, Miriam, Omar, and Amis — an excellent team. 🌺

Relax e dolcezza
Pros:

Hotel stupendo a letteralmente 200m dal mare si può dire che esci dall’hotel e hai i piedi in spiaggia praticamente.
Lo staff sublime i ragazzi in reception sono dolcissimi e si fanno in quattro per aiutarti in qualsiasi cosa. La colazione ottima. Se dovessimo tornare a Zanzibar tornerò sicuramente qui :)

Pros:

Arya Boutique is a serene green oasis — peaceful, beautifully kept, and very relaxing. The staff are truly amazing: attentive, warm, and always helpful. The owner, although not on the premises during my stay, personally messaged me before arrival and made sure I felt genuinely welcomed throughout my stay. It felt personal and very special.

Pros:

The resort is not owning any private beach but cooperating with very close walking distance lodge for free sunbeds. This aspect, linked to a very poor service, tidiness and customer care, makes Arya absolutely over expensive and over promising in his presentation.
