We hebben genoten en we hadden graag langer gebleven!
Pros:

De ligging aan de zee was fantastisch. Je waant je in een klein paradijs waar je niks hoeft, behalve relaxen. Het eten, zowel ontbijt als diner is fantastisch en daarbij ook niet duur. Lief en behulpzaam personeel maakte ons verblijf helemaal af. Wij hebben genoten!

Cons:

De accommodatie is wat lastig te vinden op Google Maps.

Absolutely magical
Pros:

The staff - Manager, Isaac was absolutely phenomenal and the Chef - Romanus is a total genius and friendly! His music is of another level, he is special in selecting music! And Pili who served us an Ana amazing person - we also had the great dedicated services of Hamis as our taxi driver. Honest, patient and eager to help. Together this group made our 40th birthday one to remember for the next 40 years! We shall for the 80th birthday. Thank you Team Kidoti for making our time very memorable.

Cons:

There are efforts to improve access to the beach and we hope that these efforts materialize very soon.

Moc příjemné překvapení.
Pros:

Krásné místo. Menší a schovaný ráj. Personál nám dal pocit vřelého přijetí a přátelství. Zdravíme tady Amis, Sophie, Rachel, Daniel, Veronica, Isac. Děkujeme kuchařům za skvělé jídlo. Krásný start naší dovolené, předčil naše očekávání.

Pros:

Prodloužili jsme si zde náš pobyt, takže toto je hodnocení z prodloužení pobytu. V prvním hodnocení jsme již popsali, že ubytování je nádherné a předčilo naše očekávání pro příjemný pobyt k aklimatizaci na Zanzibar. Potkali jsme zde lidi, se kterými jsme se cítili jako mezi dobrými přáteli.

A great hideaway location to unwind, away from the hustle and noise of Nungwi.
Pros:

The breakfast pancakes and fresh fruit were superb. There was real coffee in a cafetiere but despite constant requests it was not made strong enough for our usual tastes. The staff team were very accommodating on special requests including going out to fund tamarind for juice and jackfruit for us. The manager Mr Hamisi was super helpful and all the staff were keen to support even if there were some misunderstandings due to language.

Cons:

When booking the photos on the site led us to believe it would be on a sandy beach. Unfortunately this is not the case. The "beach" is actually a huge expense of coral and mud. Cool for mudlarking at low tide and OK for swimming from the steps at high tide but not a place to lie back on the sand and swim at anu time of day. However the deck and pool made up for that. All in all a very pleasant and laid back place to chill and let the work stress drift away.

Miejsce odcięte od świata
Pros:

Basen był ok , naleśniki na śniadanie bardzo dobre.

Cons:

Pracownicy pracują tam za karę tak można wywnioskować po ich minach i podejściu do wszystkiego. Wykupiłem domek z widokiem na morze po czy dostaliśmy z widokiem na krzaki ale po rozmowie następnego dnia wymieniono nam na właściwy. Jedzenie takie sobie . Przez większość czasu jest odpływ i nie ciekawy widok zostaje basen i to jest jedyna aktywność którą można wykonywać w tym hotelu . Idealne miejsce jeśli ktos chce leżeć na leżaku i tyle.
