Väga meeldis! Võõratult kaunis ja meeldiv koht - soovitan!
Pros:

Hommiku ja õhtusöögid olid imehead! Valik on suur ja mitmekesine. Hotell on otse rannas, oma privaatse rannaalaga, mida valvavad turvamehed. Rannas on võimalik jälgida tõusu- ja mõõna, juhtusime olema seal täiskuu ajal - merevee tase kõikus üle 5 meetri! Mõõna ajal sai jalutada riffini, nautida päikest ja vaadata elu merepõhjas (vajalikud vastavad jalanõud, ei pea kohalikega 50 USD-eest jalutama, saab ka üksi hakkama), tõusu ajal sai mõnusalt suurtes lainetes ujuda. Rannas jalutades on muidugi kohalikke, kes soovivad oma teeuseid/asju müüa, aga ka nendega saab sõbralikult hakkama - Tansaanlased oskavad reeglina hästi inglise keelt ja vahel oli isegi päris huvitav kohalikega eluolust lobiseda. Hommikujooksul/jalutusel rannas saab näha kohalikke koolilapsi kooli poole jalutamas. Hotellis on terve päeva jooksul võimalik osaleda erinevates sportlikes-, kohalikku kultuuri ja eluolu tutvustavates tegevustes. Peaagu iga õhtu oli mingisugune programm. Eurooplastele on see paik kindlasti nagu paradiis võrreldes hotellivälise eluga, mis on tüüpiline Aafrikale. Toad on puhtad ja ruumikad. Wifi toimis kenasti.

Cons:

Elektrikatkestused - periooditi, aga väga lühiaegsed, oluliselt ei sega. Lisa-teenuste hinnad olid meeletult kõrged. Õnneks saab neid teenuseid ka hotelli lähedalt mujalt mitu korda odavamalt.

Great location, but hotel appear tired already given it is only a few years old, it needs some TLC. Staff are very frien
Pros:

The location was great on the beach.
Staff were friendly
Beds in rooms were comfortable

Cons:

Pool was in poor condition with tiles missing, sharp edges on the stepping stones by baby pool which kids could hurt them self on, pool was dirty round edges and needed a good scrub clean. The grim stained our girls swim clothes green.
Sun loungers were very uncomfortable
Umbrellas broken
Lebaneses restaurant very poor- I had raw fish, seating too low and uncomfortable, service was poor.

Urgent need for renovation!!!
Pros:

Rooms big, clean and good beds and the beach was nice.

Cons:

Facilities was VERY old, dirty and damaged, gun a joke, plastic on all seats, you get wet from sitting on in 30gr. plastic sun beds, chairs , even menu cards was dirty. This Hotel is like a luxury camping. NOT near a 5 star.
old restaurants and interior was dirty and looked terrible, no quite place to eat. - lots of noice from intertaiment every night..
Poo area no beds for guest unless you wake up at 05 am. and the beds are so close to eachother and the decking is very old -
Hotel is more like a 2-3 star in facilities and looks. The only positive was the kind staf.

Fabulous place and good memories made.
Pros:

The hotel fulfilled my expectations of fabulous environment especially the well kept greenery and the exceptional sea view. I loved the design and conditions of the room which was pleasantly comfortable. I was concerned of the food menu which was offered on the day that I checked in but the head chef was very accommodating in explaining to me the food catered. The staff were very friendly, courteous and provided good customer service. Overall beautiful experience and I will return to the hotel with my family.

Cons:

In terms of rooms the bed was very high which I struggled getting into as a short person. Include some Swahili food like pilau, chapati etc sell that part of African cuisine to your tourist.
