Great place to relax
Pros:

The hotel is well maintained and the staff is very kind and helpful. The food was good, with a good amount of vegetarian options as well. Gym is small but the machines are very recent. I also tried the massages and I was impressed by the quality. All in all I definitely recommend it.

Cons:

I was travelling solo and I didn't like the approach of the locals on the beach. I tried to enjoy the sea twice and both time I was harassed by locals trying to sell me boat tours. Once I also tried to take a walk to check out the other restaurants on the beach but after a few meters I came back because I saw people from afar starting to walk towards me from every angle. It's very annoying and prevented me to fully enjoy the location. I think hotels should manage this side better. And locals would gain much more business if they didn't have such an aggressive attitude towards tourists.

super lokalizacja przy pięknej plaży, ogród niezwykle zadbany , pełny spokój relaks gwarantowany
Pros:

sala restauracyjna przestronna, piękny sufit w konstrukcji bambusowej, obsługa niezwykle przyjazna, serdeczna, wesoła.
śniadania dobre choć powtarzalne , natomiast obiado-kolacje pyszne, urozmaicone menu , każdego dnia coś ciekawego. codziennie inne atrakcyjne wieczory muzyczne - muzyka na żywo, wstępy lokalnych zespołów, duetów.
W hotelu i otoczeniu widać troskę o środowisko , eco podejście w wielu rozwiązaniach

Cons:

bez większego znaczenia - ale lokalny hotelowy sklep z "pamiątkami" czy niezbędnymi przyborami - słaby , nie zachęca do wejścia

The hotel : Beautifully set up in the green overlooking the amazing Indian Ocean, very antique type,
Pros:

Liked the breakfast only.
Dinner on 23rd evening at Amani Dhow was below average left alone we were almost chased away from occupying the seats on the ground that we were late for dinner. It was 9.30 pm whereas the period for dinner announced was 7.00 pm to 10.30 pm. We didn’t get our ordered food instead we were served with something prepared hurriedly.

Cons:

1. We were served with two 1/2 litter of drinking water bottles, and were asked to buy water from restaurants if we needed more. Of course we needed more. Who can survive with 1/2 litre of water for a day!
2. The regulator for ceiling fan was not functioning that caused discomfort while sleeping
