A wonderful, friendly hotel in a central location.
Pros:

This was our second time at the hotel. The location is excellent, the staff is friendly, and the cleanliness is exceptional. We left with a positive experience for the second time. The Columbus monkeys jumping on the bushes, terraces and running around the pool provide a wonderful experience. We loved being there, and we might come back for a third time.
But we might also try the hotel's "sister", the Zula.

Cons:

We only have one small negative comment.
We spent 14 days at the hotel, so the breakfast selection was a bit boring in the last few days. But regardless, it was very delicious. :-)

Bella struttura direttamente sul mare
Pros:

Gentilezza personale

Cons:

Poca pulizia verso il mare
Basterebbe poco per tener pulito la spiaggia davanti all’hotel.

Séjour kitesurf avec un ami et on a adoré cet hôtel après en avoir fait 5 différents sur Zanzibar :)
Pros:

La chambre avait à la fois une vue sur la piscine et sur la plage. C'est hyper agréable de se réveiller avec une aussi belle vue : Cocotiers + plage... Les chambres sont agréables et bien agencées. On peut sauter dans la piscine en faisant quelques pas depuis la chambre dans laquelle on était. Il y a des transats avec une superbe vue côté plage ou côté piscine (au choix). Aucun racoleur qui nous aborde. Le restaurant vue plage est top... Le restaurant pour le petit déjeuner est très bien également, ce n'est pas un buffet, c'est donc plus qualitatif et très bon. Le personnel hyper sympa et arrangeant. Il y avait un billard, une table de ping pong, un babyfoot pour passer le temps si on souhaite (pratique si il pleut)... Vraiment j'ai tout adoré... J'ai fait 5 hôtels lors de mon séjour et celui-ci était le meilleur de loin... Merci à toute l'équipe ! Et j'oubliais, la proximité avec l'école de kitesurf était top aussi + le petit magasin à côté de l'hôtel + les boutiques de souvenirs font que l'emplacement était également parfait...

Cons:

J'essaye de chercher des choses négatives mais c'est difficile à trouver tellement tout était parfait selon moi... Vraiment je ne vois pas de choses négatives... J'ai adoré ! :)

Pros:

beach front location

Cons:

got the 2 noisiest rooms just next to the power generator which was on a significant part of the day/evening. Rooms dated, especially the bathrooms, and poorly isolated (so the noise from the generator was insane). Weak water pressure in the shower.

Wonderful stay
Pros:

Beautiful place

Cons:

There’s an overly friendly waiter who unfortunately couldn’t get the hint that we just wanted to be left alone as a group of women.

Pros:

Cest un hôtel a taille humaine avec un personnel adorable et très bien situé ! La nourriture est délicieuse avec des prix raisonnables ainsi qu'à l'hôtel zula qui fait partie du même groupe et qui se situe a 100m . Notre séjour était parfait ! Merci !!
