Notre séjour au Mahali restera gravé dans nos mémoires !
Pros:

La vue sur la mer depuis les logements et la grande piscine est à couper le souffle, et chaque repas, du petit-déjeuner au dîner, était un régal. À marée basse, le paysage y est bien plus jolie que partout ailleurs sur la côte Est.

Lucie et son équipe, d’une gentillesse et d’une attention rares, ont tout fait pour rendre notre séjour parfait. Un immense merci à eux pour ces moments magiques à Paje. Asante sana !

Overall good
Pros:

Staff, rooms and location

Cons:

Breakfast is not a bufet. You have to say how many sausages and how many tomatos you would like to have and it can make you uncomfortable. They have a very poor selection of breakfast choices and some were out for a few days.....

Pros:

Спасибо персоналу отеля Mahali Zanzibar за прекрасное размещение. Мы приехали ночью, нас встретили, заселили, несмотря на то, что ресепшен не работал. Показали, где магазин. Очень красивая и уютная территория отеля, очень просторный номер. Чисто и комфортно. Максимальная забота и внимание к посетителям. Очень классный бар и еда в ресторане при отеле, красивый вид на бассейн и океан. Максимальное внимание к деталям, аутентичный дизайн и стильный интерьер. Рядом чистый пляж, и шикарный рассвет.

С радостью вернемся снова!

Отдельное спасибо за то, что передали в аэропорт мои ложки, которые я купила в подарок и забыла в отеле) ребята все оперативно организовали и привези 🤗🤗🤗! Благодарю от всей души, буду рекомендовать друзьям и обязательно вернемся!

Персонал очень приветливый и добрый) спасибо ♥️

Excellent séjour au cœur de Paje
Pros:

Emplacement exceptionnel, directement sur l'une des plus belles plages de Paje. La vue sur l'océan depuis les chambres, la piscine et la salle du petit-déjeuner est magnifique. Les chambres sont spacieuses, très propres et la climatisation est efficace. Le personnel est adorable, toujours souriant et aux petits soins. Un grand merci à Lucie, toujours disponible et à l'écoute. Le restaurant offre un excellent rapport qualité-prix (le homard était délicieux !) et nous avons beaucoup apprécié la soirée de musique live. Nous reviendrions avec grand plaisir.

Cons:

Les salles de bain mériteraient un sérieux rafraîchissement, mais cela ne nous a pas gênés car elles étaient toujours très propres et, au final, on y passe très peu de temps. Le petit-déjeuner est bon, mais il pourrait proposer un peu plus de variété, notamment avec des options déjà préparées comme des smoothie bowls, overnight oats etc.

Pros:

Virkelig dejlig morgenmad (rart at det ikke var buffet), men at man frit kunne bestille ned til bordet og meget sødt personale.

Cons:

Havde forventet at havet var mere klart og rent. Mange bølger og mange Kitesurfere.

Perfektes Hotel direkt am Strand
Pros:

Perfekte Laga direkt am Strand. Durch den privat Strand können die „Verkäufer“ und co nicht hoch. Das ist sehr angenehm. Tolles Zimmer mit Meerblick und Balkon. Das Personal ist super! Danke an Neema für die wunderbare Betreuung und Amiri für die beste Mani-Pedi! Restaurant und Partner Restaurant in Zula beides Top!
