Great stay / lovely people / excellent room and facilities
Pros:

Genuinely lovely and friendly staff. Great facilities, and loved the fact that it wasn't an all inclusive so you could get out and experience the town.

Location was on the less developed side of nungwi which was perfect for us. There were lovely bars and restaurants on the north coast (about a 10 minute walk if you don't end up chatting to the locals - but you will!) but if you want to be in the heart of things the north west part of town was busier.

Also, taxis and tuk tuks were always available outside and were cheap and friendly if you wanted to go further afield or skip the walk.

Room was beautiful and the hotel facilities were first class.

Cons:

Nothing

A wonderful place to stay!!!😍
Pros:

The place was wonderful! 2 swimming pools, a few restaurants and bars, a nice area to walk by the beach. The view from my balcony was very pretty! Also, the staff is amazing. They are all so friendly and welcoming. You feel that those people are really happy to see you. Beautiful place 😍

Cons:

Even though there are so many beautiful things in the hotel I personally couldn’t give them 5 stars. There’s nothing wrong with them, just it lucks some 5 stars hotel features.
