Levde absolut inte upp till mina förvätningar
Pros:

Läget var fantastiskt, fin utsikt, fina rum. Men det var där det tog slut. Vi bytte efter några dagar till ett annat hotell. 5 stjärnor ser ni, det är en del av loggan borde vara 2 egentligen.

Cons:

Maten var katastrof, nu äter jag inte kyckling. Så då fanns det inte så mycket mer att äta. Dem har endast vegetariskt, indiskt och kyckling. Men förutom det, så var servicen i restaurangen en ren katastrof, 20 min för att få en öl, 40min för att få en flaska vin. Maten i sig tog allt mellan 20-45 min, och då lägger vi till att vi endast var 5 olika familjer som gäster på hotellet. Ena dagen fick jag halva min middag först och tillhörande potatis kom 30 min senare.. Så rekommenderar jag hotellet, nej.

Enjoying sea breeze from turquoise blue sea on white sandy beach.
Pros:

The hotel has a beautiful wide garden filled with fire tress , magnolias and other trees with bright flowers. I saw several colorful birds including parrots and small monkeys. You can walk though the garden to the sandy beach, ideal for jogging and walking in both high and low tide, as it is quite spacious and long. Swimming was nice at high tide. What made it even more special was nice breeze from the sea. You could read and relax in shade even with high temperature.

Cons:

There were no freshly brewed coffee , nor espresso machine, just instant powered coffee. It was a little bit disappointing.
The Indian food we tried was excellent, but the past we had was not so great.

Wir hatten eine magische Zeit auf Zansibar
Pros:

Wir haben uns gut umsorgt gefühlt, alle waren sehr freundlich. Am Hotel und der Anlage hat uns gut gefallen, dass hier versucht wurde, den traditionellen Stil zu wahren. Alle waren sehr bemüht, dass wir uns wohlfühlen. Zum Frühstück konnten wir Sonderwünsche äußern, einmal hat der Koch uns sogar Fufu gemacht:-) Es gibt einen ganz tollen Fahrer, der uns begleitet hat und von dem wir viel über das Land gelernt haben. Die Beachbar-Crew ist super, der Service auch! Danke an alle, wir kommen sicher wieder. Wir mussten uns zu Beginn daran gewöhnen, dass der Aktionsradius vom Hotel aus doch recht klein ist. Dann haben wir gelernt, genau das zu schätzen, denn hier ist keine Touristenhochbur. Wunderbar

Cons:

es gab nichts:-)

Pros:

Un mois de reve passé dans cet etablissement a taille humaine, en bord de ce magnifique lagon.
En demie pension, dans une maison individuelle avec une immense terrasse couverte, au milieu de la verdure et notamment des odorants frangipaniers en fleur. Un service parfait, discret et a l ecoute. Entretien et litterie irreprochables.
Nourriture variee et saine offrant langoustes, crevettes geantes, plats swahilis.
Je recommande le mouton au curry avec bananes vertes!!
Une vaste piscine donnant sur le lagon avec apparition de petits singes timides et joueurs qui ont ravi notre fille et nous meme.
Nous avons aime le calme et la nature du parc de l etablissement, la proximité immediate de la plge magnifique offrant des seances de snorkeling dans le lagon accessible par petits bateaux a moteur.
Prevoyez de faire du sport sur votre terrasse car il n y a pas de salle de sport, c est dommage.
Je recommande vraiment sincerement cet etablissement dont la situation geographique centrale permet de visiter aiwement l ensemble de l ile qui est magnifique et tres sure.
N hesitez pas a recourir aux sevices du chauffeur maison, Ali, qui est excellent conducteur, et aux conseils du directeur et de son epouse.

Cons:

Tout etait agreable et fluide pour nous, adultes, et notre petite fille qui a adorée ce séjour.

Pros:

Tolles Hotel mit schönem Poolbereich und gepflegtem Strand. Nachdem wir zunächst ein Zimmer direkt bei einer angrenzenden Baustelle hatten, erhielten wir nach Reklamation eine super Suite, mit herrlicher Terrasse und tollem Ausblick. Das Personal war sehr aufmerksam.

Cons:

Das Essen war etwas einfallslos und auch der Restaurantbereich wirkte nicht sehr einladend und eher wie in einem Fastfood-Restaurant.
