Excellent value for money. The rooms were clean, there was hot water in the bathroom, and the food in the restaurant was delicious. The hotel is well located between the tourist beaches. We recommend!

Absolutely loved it. Quite, idyllic, peaceful. Beautiful pool area and gardens that are immaculate, monkeys came down to see us one morning which was entertaining. Food good and that and drink very reasonably priced. Cooked to order so there may be a wait but it's fresh. All staff friendly and helpful. Rooms basic but authentic and kept clean. Hoping to go back in December 2024

I’m here now,Idyllic if you want peace & quiet lovely secluded areas to sit or lay out. Nice sized pool, good sized chalets, I chose one with air con, should have saved my money completely ineffective, cooler out in the breeze of the restaurant. No hairdryer available, what hotel now doesn’t offer the use of a hairdryer ? Asked for a glass of wine with my meal, despite advertising wine by the glass told I couldn’t have one as they only have it by the bottle. If there had been a fridge in the room I would have bought a bottle but who wants to drink warm wine. Really liked this place on first sight but now quite disappointed with the set up.

This hotel was one of my most enjoyable holidays in a long time. A beautiful tropical retreat for my little boy and me. First of all a HUGE thank you to Fasi/Punch the chefs and all the other guys in the restaurant for understanding my sons food allergies and making sure he had something safe to eat. They noted his allergies on day 1 and took it very seriously, I was very impressed with this and it allowed me to relax at mealtimes. Also the food is DELICIOUS you can preorder too. The pool is clean and warm, the rooms are typical Zanzibar style and clean, location is quiet but easy to get taxi/tuk tuk on main road. You can swim in the sea when the tide is right in. We felt very relaxed here for 2 weeks and at times like we had the place to ourselves. We cannot wait to return :)

A lovely small hotel with everything that I was looking for. Right on the beach with stunning views of the green/blue sea, good sized swimming pool, good sized bedroom with shower etc, never short of hot water, air-con and ceiling fan, excellent food, free bottled water every day, all in all very good value!

Wow! I have travelled around a bit, but for me this was a perfect place in an awe inspiring location. There are different levels of rooms, but I took a basic room. Located a few feet away from the most beautiful white sands, and azure sea. Yes it was basic but for me it added a sense of authenticity. The staff were very accomodating, always willing to help, friendly, and they were there to do their best to make your stay enjoyable. There are $100+ a night places up in Paje or Jambiani, hang out the with instagram crowds, but for me this was just perfect in a quietness and seclusion but not too far to take a stroll to the towns. I will never forget my time there and I am looking for ways I can come back as soon as possible. If you are expecting a 5 star hotel look elsewhere, but this place allows you to embrace being part of the authentic Zanzibar. Thanks to all the staff for making it a dream vacation. Asante!!!!

We came for honeymoon here for two weeks and we loved every minute of our stay! The beach bandas are so romantic, right on the beautiful beach. Lovely friendly staff, good food, drinks and great peaceful location! We went on lots of excursions from here too which were easy to book and organise with the staff. We hope we will be back one day! Highly recommend!

We (parents with two young adult children) stayed here for a week and really enjoyed the spacious garden setting and African style of this place and the sea views during breakfast/dining. Being situated between Jambiani and Paje this place is relatively quiet and has a relaxed atmosphere. The rooms/cottages were rather sober but clean, although sometimes the bed-clothes were not perfectly clean. The meals served were good and affordable. The central swimming-pool is a lovely. The lagoon in front of Mbuyuni is not very suitable for swimming, because of the sharp stones at the bottom. The beaches nearby, however, are fine, consisting of dazzling white coral sand. All in all, a good place to stay if you want to avoid the more crowded centres of Paje and Jambiani.
