The staff 100% make this place, so friendly, so helpful and generally infectious. We cant thank everyone enough for making our honeymoon so special and taking care of us throughout our stay

Spotless wonderful staff amazing food and location

Staff are brilliant

After reading so many excellent reviews we had high expectations for this hotel unfortunately for us it didn't quite reach the mark. Pro's - smooth & quick check-in (after a pre-check in via email) - App is helpful to see what's happening/bookings etc - Hotel grounds/ facilities well maintained & clean - friendly Staff - Clean & tidy room - beautiful setting - Taste of Asia recommended for lunch - Excursions are worth booking available through hotel (we did Jozani Forest/Stone Town) We also did Cheetahs Rock (booked directly with facility for this one) highly recommended con's - Restaurant food for lunch/dinner is very similar and can get boring - Bookable restaurants not always available (book in advance) - We found the lunch food on offer far better than dinner - no bar snacks when having a drink - nuts/crisp etc - this would have been a nice touch - Turn downs were hit and miss - sometimes it happened others not - not what we expected for a premium room - especially when there was limited water to drink in the room when the turn down was missed - sometimes really early as well 5pm -lots of extra charges - all inclusive isn't all inclusive (some cocktails /drinks are extra along with 1 of the restaurants) Overall we enjoyed our stay but didn't feel like it was 5-star.

Excellent and beyond

Great food. Friendly and helpful staff.

The hotel was wonderful. A safe place with delicious food and the people are so lovely. Clean and got everything you need. My only thing would be to make sure there is an all inclusive coconut rum.

What a wonderful island and hotel. No complaints at all, fabulous holiday. Now to start saving up to return

Great amenities and variety Food is a 6/10 - lots of options but some stations were consistent disappointments Could have issued more information about sand fleas as after a first encounter, limited us from going on the beach again

This is a really AMAZING HOTEL for both families or couples. I travelled more than 70 countries; and this was such an amazing spot I stayed. Before selectong hotel I read all comments but some negative ones are not very realistic to me now: 1-amazing staff: from reception to beach, restaurants to gardeners; all are making the hotel really shine. So kind, helpful, and service quality to your front amazingly. In any other country you cannot find such - in EU for sure not 2- food: very very delicious, big variety. Some mentioned that it s not easy to book restaurants which is absolutaley not true; very very easy indeed. If you are searching for Michelin restaurants ; for sure no need to come here; otherwise this hotel is amazing 3-natives by the beach: wheb walking by the beach; there are Tanzanian and Masai people approaching you but in a very gentle way; tryijg to help you walk in return asking you to visit their shops in a very good petsonal distance. All are kind. No need to worry at all even with kids or ladies alone. Also in case there are safety guards by beach. 4- sea and beach: very beautiful amd clean. Even in low tides you cannkt see any trash in the sea or beach. Be careful with sear urchines in low tide after 1km from beach. Masaii will help you My only comment might be daily trips and spa services; despite of their quality; a bit overpriced even above EU levels. Overall: Such a very good price vs service quality. Big thanks to all team and employees.
