We stayed for longer!
Pros:

Cannot fault it at all. From the moment we walked in and were welcomed by Cristina and Filomena, we realised one night’s stay wouldn’t be enough. They showed us the property before taking us to our room, and the whole time we were falling more and more in love with the place. To top it off, we were so well received at the restaurant, with the attentiveness of the staff making you feel like you’re the only client in the world. Needless to say, we’ve booked more nights directly with the hotel, and I’m happy to share that I’m writing this review with the most amazing, happiest, relaxed smile I’ve had in a long time.

Obrigado, Sahari!

We had lovely time here. Hotel is beautiful with lovely pool and beach area and staff are relaxed and friendly.
Pros:

Lovely rooms, pool and view

Cons:

No room service. Bed and pillows very hard. They could do with improving the food, it’s a bit off and on.

Ein wunderbarer Ort, um zur Ruhe zu kommen! Aufmerksames und sehr freundliches Personal!
Pros:

Tolle Lage, sehr ruhig...ein Juwel! Jeden Morgen frisches Obst, frisch gepresster Saft aus tropischen Früchten.

Cons:

Bei Kaffeebohnen, Milch und Mineralwasser gab es ab und zu Engpässe, die aber innerhalb weniger Stunden behoben wurden.

Sehr erholsame Zeit direkt am Strand!
Pros:

Wir hatten eine sehr erholsame Zeit am Ende unserer Rundreise. Die Lage am Strand, die Hotelanlage und das Restaurant sind wirklich super. Wie überall auf Sansibar ist das Personal sehr freundlich und sehr bemüht - wir durften bis zu unserem späten Rückflug den ganzen Tag noch unser Zimmer (mit Meerblick oberhalb der Bar) nutzen!
Das Essen und die Getränke sind gut, ggf. wären 1-2 weitere vegetarische Gerichte super - auf Nachfrage wurde uns aber ein Gericht auch extra vegetarisch zubereitet!

Cons:

Das hat wenig mit dem Hotel an sich zu tun - generell versuchen sehr viele Leute, eine Schnorcheltour/Ausflug zu verkaufen (das Hotel bietet auch welche an, haben wir aber nicht gemacht) oder Souvenirs etc.
Dabei fanden wir es an dem Strandabschnitt aber erträglich. Ohne es genau zu wissen kann ich mir vorstellen, dass es z.B. in Paje noch mehr ist.

Wonderfoul hotel for those who need rest and required quiet place
Pros:

The hotel is quiet, a perfect place for those who need rest, want to find privacy, and try to avoid the rumor of "beach boys." The staff is excellent, the food was very good, the hotel manager was awesome, and the staff at the pool/beach bar was incredible. For sure will be back there next year.

Cons:

Nothing to add

séjour parfait
Pros:

Séjour en famille parfait avec mon mari et notre petite fille d'un an et demi, qui a été traitée comme une reine par tous les membres du personnel.
Tout comme nous, d'ailleurs.
Hotel calme, propre, accueillant, cosy et chaleureux.
La vue depuis le restaurant est à couper le souffle.
Les plats sont de bonne qualité et variés pour ceux qui ne veulent pas faire l'effort de gouter aux spécialités locales.
Le personnel a été au top du début à la fin, très à l'écoute, souriant et n'en fait pas trop.
Le jardin avec piscine est un véritable havre de paix, il ne faut rien changer dans cet hotel. Merci encore à tous.

Cons:

Si vous êtes du genre FaceTime à plein volume, activités en permanence et dans l'attente de vous gaver, allez ailleurs. J'ai vu des commentaires qui se plaignaient de problèmes de climatisation .. Si ça vous pose problème, il serait peut-être mieux de choisir Ibiza comme destination !
Il n'y a rien de négatif à dire sur ce séjour,
