Pros:

raňajky boli chutné, ale chýbala k nim zelenina. More bolo teplé, ale pláž nebola upravená, mohli tam tie kamene počas odlivu odstrániť. Personál bol veľmi ústretový a milý. Bazén nádherný, vždy čistený a voda v ňom má príjemnú teplotu.

Cons:

Pláž bola sklamaním. Neupravená, vstup do mora počas prílivu sa ešte dalo, ale pri odlive už nie moc. a dosť dlho tam ten odliv trvá,takže vtedy sa kúpať nedá takmer vobec.

Ruhig und familiär für totale Entspannung
Pros:

Grosse Wohlfühl-Terrasse zum Geniessen mit Sitzsäcken, Liegestühlen, Hängematten und Sofas.
Auch der Pool ist sehr hübsch und auch gross genug um ein Schwimmtraining zu machen.
Der Garten ist sehr üppig und schön.
Sehr leistungsfähige und trotzdem ruhige Klimaanlage. Sehr gutes WLan überall.

Cons:

Das Zimmer (Tembo) war etwas muffig, abgestandener Geruch und der Wasserdruck eher niedrig.

Mehr als Empfehlenswert
Pros:

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, die Häuschen mit Meerblick waren jeden Cent wert. Klima vorhanden, sowie ein Moskitonetz. Jegliche Art an Speisen und Getränke (Frühstück, Lunch oder Dinner) wurden auf unserer privaten Terasse serviert, das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die gesamte Anlage war sehr sauber, direkter Zugang zum Meer (Gezeiten beachten) und ca 10-15 Min Autofahrt vom Touriort Nungwi entfernt. Das Essen war ebenfalls sehr lecker! Wir können es sehr empfehlen und würden jederzeit erneut buchen!

Cons:

Eine wunderschöne tropische Anlage am Meer
Pros:

Die wunderschöne, ruhige Lage direkt am Meer, die tropische Anlage mit den Palmen und der super freundliche Service haben uns besonders gut gefallen. Ein idealer Ort, um abzuschalten und Zanzibar zu genießen.

Wifi problemi
Pros:

Çalışanların samimi ilgisi

Cons:

Otelin bir telefonu var acil bir ihtiyacımız olduğunda aradık ve açan olmadı, odamızda wifi olduğunu söylemişlerdi, yoktu ve sadece ortak alanda vardı orada da sivrisinekten oturamıyorduk.

It is certainly nice for certain people but not for me.
Pros:

The view, the swimming pool, the nice cabins

Cons:

Too much noise, it’s disco all day long and you hear it into your room as if you’re sitting at the bar. Didn’t like the cats cause they pissed on our shoes that were outside drying. The furniture is just old and weird setup with no real chairs. Staff is constant looking to sell booz.

Gros potentiel mais plus d’attentions de la part du personnel seraient appréciables.
Pros:

La beauté du lieu et la vue.

Les plats proposés étaient très qualitatifs.

Cons:

Nous avions demandé à l’hôtel de réserver un taxi pour le transfert depuis l’aéroport, cela avait été validé mais la demande avait finalement été oubliée dans les heures qui ont suivies malgré les relances.

Pas d’attention particulière pour la lune de miel (pourtant mentionnée au préalable et révoquée à notre arrivée).

Une employée particulièrement insistante pour relancer le paiement de notes qui ont déjà été payés (le personnel ne note pas lorsque les notes sont payés et ils ne communiquent pas ensemble).

Mauvaise wifi, ne fonctionne pas dans la chambre et de nombreuses coupures de courant.

Experiencia y trato del personal increíble.
Pros:

El alojamiento es increíble. Todo superó nuestras expectativas, sí destacó algo sin duda es el trato del personal, se portaron muy bien con nosotros, fueron muy atentos y amables y siempre estaban a nuestra disposición. El sitio es precioso y puedes disfrutar tanto de la piscina como de la playa, es un sitio que transmite mucha paz y nosotros nos hemos sentido como en casa. Agradecemos mucho la atención del personal y también de la compañía de los gatitos que residen allí. Todo ha sido perfecto, si volviéramos a elegir, volveríamos a elegir Kidoti Bay. ¡Asante Sana!🩵

Cons:

Se iba la luz de vez en cuando y el agua de la ducha no iba a veces bien, pero es completamente entendible sabiendo la zona en la que está ubicada la villa. Igualmente vale la pena hospedarse allí
