"fine, but …"

6.0

our room was very large, clean and had nice decor. the hotel itself is very small (only 3 rooms) so it feels cozy. staff was always friendly and accommodating. bedding and towels smelled very nice, and there are bathroom amenities provided that also smelled lovely. breakfast was good and plentiful everyday, with pancakes, eggs, potatoes, and cut fruit.

our mini fridge didn‘t work. water from the taps is salt water, so you’re always salty and a little bit sticky even after you shower. there’s a water heater in the bathroom that they tell you to switch on before you shower but the water never gets warm. I know power outages are frequent and normal for Zanzibar, but there was also a problem with the power lines of the hotel while we stayed there so we were completely without power (and water) for a full night + day + a couple more hours, so it must’ve been 30 hours. they were able to fix it though so at least the second night we could take a shower, finally flush the toilet and sleep with aircon. our room got broken into while we were in there sleeping (!), we foolishly forgot to lock the sliding door and someone came in and took the cash from our wallets. nothing else was taken but it was horrifying nonetheless. there is always a security guard (also at night) but he was sleeping and didn‘t notice anything even though he was right in front of our room. I know we should’ve have locked our room but still - this shouldn’t have happened. we did get to see the security camera footage and we are 100% sure it was nobody from the staff, I just want to clarify that that‘s not what I‘m saying.

The location, the staff, everything. The breakfast was really great. Value for money is really good. We were very happy with our stay and will certainly be back.

Obiekt przy samej plaży. Pokój czysty, personel bardzo uprzejmy. Ciche miejsce, tylko trzy pokoje. Minus jest taki, że jak jest odpływ to plaża nie wygląda zbyt ciekawie.

Śniadania mogłyby być bardziej urozmaicone.

"AVOID THIS PLACE!!!"

1.0

Honestly, not much.

The check in was a disaster...despite having aware or our arrival time and asking for an early check in, there were still other guys moving out of the room at 2.15 pm. Room was then cleaned but was unusable as it wreaked like chemicals. The AC barely worked, there was holes in the walls and the box fan in the room did little. The worst thing though was that there was a planned power cut they told us nothing about, despite having communicated with them in person and online several times. From 6 to midnight there was no lights, ac, fan, wifi, WATER...couldnt shower or flush the toilet. They left us with no time to prepare ourselves for this or provide us lanterns or candles...We did end up helping ourselves to some of the lanterns from the bar as there was no staff to be found except for a security guard sleeping on one of the pool chairs. we ended up taking a couple pool chairs and moving a mattress outside to try to get some sleep as the room was unbearably hot. At 1230 am the power came back on, so we moved the mattress back in and managed to get some rest. The place is just an absolute mess and management is nonexistent. Avoid this place at all cost!

"It is nice place, don’t expect clear water beach, but there is one few meters away, so still nice. The rooms are nice de"

8.0

Spacious rooms, good breakfast, location if you don’t need clear blue water beach, friendly staff, early check in and late check out at no extra cost, you can borrow bycicles(but unfortunately they were out of order). Comfy beds. Clean rooms.

Constant electricity shortages, which means no AC, no water in the rooms, no WIFI, no light, it has been every day and lasts from 2 hour per day, to 24 hours the first day. They had no generator. Pricey bar/restaurant.
