Pros:

Rooms: We "downgraded" from the suites to the standard rooms in front of the pool, they were so much nicer, modern and very comfortable. I wouldn't recommend these rooms for families with small children., but otherwise they were the best.

Food & Drinks: Overall, The food was really good, though some things may not be to your taste, they had a wide variety to choose from in which you will always find something in their buffet offerring to enjoy. One thing they had the best of at every meal, was the rice. Their mocktails were really good, having the All-Inclusive package was the best

Facilities: the gardens & landscaping was beautifully manicured and maintained and the resort activities were such fun

Cons:

Rooms: The only issue is that they were the furthest from the food hall, drinks bars and reception, so it is a bit of a walk to get around from there.
The 2 suite rooms we initially booked had water pressure/supply and drainage issues, somehow I didn't like the smell of the bed sheets

Location: The resort is on the East coast of the island, which was close to 1 hour drive from the airport, Stone Town and other major attractions outside the resort.

Zanzibar Tourism Tax on guests staying at 4 & 5 Star accommodations: We didn't know about this we were made to pay before j they can check us in.

Séjour Normal
Pros:

Bel espace avec 3 piscines et la jettée.
Bonne bouffe.
Le personnel est très serviable et sympathique.
Bon pour se reposer

Cons:

Les draps et les taies d'oreillers n'ont pas été changés avant notre arrivée, et même suite à notre demande rien n'a été changé. On peut sentir de loin l'odeur de transpiration des clients précédents.
Les toilettes ne disposent pas de douchette.

Pros:

La structure est vraiment a la hauteur des attentes. On peut passer 8 jours sans quitter l'hôtel si l'on veut. Le personnel est super top. souriant, reactif attentionné. Buffet varié et très bon. Le bar sympa et les animations aussi.

Cons:

Un peu isolé loin des infrastructures de l’île. Rien autour de l'établissement. Il faut sans remettre aux taxi ou au service de l'hôtel qui sont nombreux, mais qui peuvent vite faire monter la facture.

It was a cultural shock to visit. People and staff was lovely just a different way of life for sure
Pros:

The grounds were maintained well. Rooms cleaned every day- free WiFi
Lots of choice of food.

Nice weather.

Cons:

My mum got cholera 2 days into the stay she was very poorly the hospital on site was refusing to take both travel insurances we had for our stay and was insisting on cash. Couldn’t really leave the complex as wasn’t very safe. About 2 hours away from any decent beach. Food was ok. Not for my pallet but lots of choice. We upgraded our rooms to a villa wasn’t really worth the money. I wouldn’t be coming back. Any popular drink you would normally order is charged as an extra- even though we was all inclusive didn’t even stay 5 days - we left as soon as possible we was booked in for 2 weeks

Pros:

Anlage war sehr schön. Etwas veraltet aber man hat sich dadurch nicht schlechter gefühlt. Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Es wurde täglich geputzt, Moskitonetz wurde geöffnet und abends wurde es wieder geschlossen und gesprüht. Wir hatten nichts an Mücken oder sonstiges im Zimmer. TOP

Cons:

Die Lage war sehr abseits. Aber dafür kein Abzug.

Cons:

My wife I and our inlaws had food poisoning. We struggled to get immediate assistance and had to wait it out, which got worse by the day.

We had to get back to South Africa to get the necessary help.

That spoiled our stay and we were then miserable and locked up for the last few days due to severe cramping, diarrhea.

Beautiful resort and very friendly staff
Pros:

Very nice African themed and lovely beach front. Has different sections of resort with 3 pools. Buffet restaurant with different food stations. Indian restaurant. Has a medical centre on site as well. We had a couple of Masai themed entertainment on couple of the nights. Overall a fantastic stay and highly recommend.

Cons:

My friends room kept on having leaks in the bathroom and then the wooden mosquito net frame fell and thankfully she didn’t get hurt. It was all dealt with and fixed. Finally the roof started to leak towards the last couple of days due to very heavy rain. She was moved to another room as was a long job.
