AI Summary
The hotel's generous breakfast, spacious rooms with beautiful views, and attentive staff create a warm atmosphere. Convenient beach location and cleanliness receive consistent praise. However, some may find the spa inadequate.

The location is at Matenwe in Zanzibar. A bit difficult to get ro but an absolute treasure. It's a retreat place but more like a resort. Directly opposite the beach, great pool, fine location and overall great staff. I'll like to visit again.

I didn’t not enjoy the food as the potion is very small and the hotel is far from other restraunts I was dissapointed and decided to book other place wastage of money The hotels around this areas should do so much better as hotels are far from other areas and you can’t get food somwhere else they should definately consider their guest

Excellent hotel! The location is great, next to the ocean, it has its own area with sun loungers, the area is guarded. Very convenient location - not far from Mnemba island, half an hour drive to Nungwi, half an hour walk to Matemwe, where there are many shops. The rooms are beautiful, clean bed linen, air conditioning, hot water in the bathroom 24 hours a day. The food in the restaurant is very tasty, the portions are good. The staff is friendly. I would like to thank the hotel managers Maurice and Munisi for their excellent work and thank you for a great holiday!

The Manager (Maurizio) and his staff were so chilled, flexible, friendly, and accommodating to our large group. My wife & I had the Harusi Room #6 upstairs and it was very nice, with a fan and AC, a safe for valuables, and with a great view looking east over the Indian Ocean. The bathrooms were all stocked with high-quality shampoos & body wash by Zuri Botanicals. The food was top notch with a variety of choices for both breakfast & dinner (we were on half-board). Our first day they gave us a great deal on lunch for everyone with competitive prices so we didn't have to go out looking for a restaurant that was open in the heat of the day. The pool is small, but adequate and you can't beat the view. The waiters were very good, taking a large # of orders and getting them all correct and the food all came out at the same time. We liked everything we tried and I loved the soups! We went on a dolphin tour / snorkeling trip our last morning that did not disappoint, although there were only 2 or 3 other boats out there. If it's busy, you may want to reconsider & look at reviews online on Google maps, as I'm sure it can get quite hectic and even unsafe for swimmers & snorkelers as they try to jump in with the dolphins. The snorkeling was so-so, but no fault of the hotel's. We did not spend very long there as we'd gotten up at 6:00 am, left at 6:20, and were back at the hotel by 9:30 in time for breakfast, but the water out there was incredibly clear and there was a decent variety of fish & corals. I will add that perhaps due to the season, there was a lot of seaweed on the beach and also in the shallow water, and be careful of sea urchins not too far out - either bring proper reef shoes or only go out a few meters unless you are swimming (it was also not Spring tides / full moon or new moon so water levels didn't change much between tides). Sadly, this is a reflection of overfishing and something would have to be done that was community-led to reverse the ecological imbalance. That being said, I did swim / walk occasionally all the way out to the reef & breakers (about 600 m?), then swam out beyond to the deeper corals and out there I did not see many sea urchins past the reef. Inside the reef there were lots of urchins, but also a good variety of small fish and the coral looked fairly healthy.

The stay was absolutely lovely. The nicest staff and the yummiest food! The rooms are beautiful and service impeccable. The only thing I would recommend would be to have one fan above the bed since the rooms are huge. This isn’t too major cause everything else was amazing!

Spend 2 nights at this incredible facility with a family of 12 including children. The view from the rooms is incredible, the beach is clean and accessible and the staff were very courteous. Also had the opportunity to chat with the General Manager Maurizio who shared his vision on uplifting the property in the near future. Exciting to go back and see the enhancements. Highly recommend this place
