PERFECTION WITH A SLICE OF PARADISE
Pros:

We only stayed 1 week here before moving to Nungwi to an all inclusive hotel and I wish now that we had spent the whole 2 weeks at Johari Beach Resort. From arrival to departure we were made to feel so welcome.
We are well travelled but never have we been somewhere that affords total relaxation. The staff are so helpful and are always smiling.
We stayed in a villa and the cleanliness and comfort was exceptional. Wake up in a morning with the choice of having breakfast brought to you and then having to stumble the few feet to your sun lounger with a perfect view of the ocean..what more can you ask for 😊
The area is relatively unspoilt by mass tourism and we left feeing very humbled!
Both my wife and I celebrated birthdays whilst we were staying at the resort and the whole team sang and danced around us having given us our birthday cakes.

A special mention to Arjun the General Manager, he went above and beyond to make sure that our stay exceeded our expectations

Just magical... please don't change!

Pros:

Very and friendly, happy and helpful staff

Cons:

All worked very well and there is nothing to dislike. However, long drive from the airport to the resort due to road conditions was somewhat unexpected but this was soon overcome by a warm welcome and wonderful hospitality including delicious hibiscus drinks.
