I didn't pay attention before ordering, the online reviews are super bad, and some of the reviews have been stolen. So go out with a backpack all the way, so as not to be stolen, a word is tiring. In the actual experience, the receptionist checked in with a smile on his face. Apart from that, he didn’t have any service experience: the front desk was dull, and there was no one on duty at night except for a security guard. I got up at 4:00 in the morning to check out, and it took until 5:30 to wait until the sleepy front desk with hatred on my face to check out. I booked a twin room, one with a mosquito net and one without a mosquito net. This is the only time. There are also advantages: quiet, windy coastline, suitable for paragliding surfing.

Sehr schöne Hotelanlage am Meer inkl. Steg (praktisch für die Low Tide) und Pool zwischen Palmen. Die Gäste verlaufen sich auf dem Gelände, so dass es nicht zu voll wirkt. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück ist jeden Tag gleich, aber doch gut. Ansonsten gibt es eine Standardkarte und abends wechselnde Angebote. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt.

There was a fire at this resort. The green area and many bungalows were affected. Our bungalow had fly screens on the windows and door. The toilet leaked. The manager, Virginia, was very unfriendly. The food was terrible.

Traumhafte Lage, das Personal liest jeden Wunsch von den Lippen ab. Unser Zimmer (Ocean Family) ist riesig mit Blick auf den Indischen Ozean. Schöner, sauberer und großer Pool. Das Hotel ist für einen Traumurlaub auf Sansibar uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert

Wybrałem "średni" gdyż sam hotel oceniłbym na DOBRY, jednak personel i posiłki obniżają moją ocenę. Bungalowy w ogrodzie bardzo fajne, czyste , z klimatyzacją i łazienką. Hotel ma głęboki na 3 metry basen, ma także 100 metrowe molo ale... No właśnie, takie atrakcje a gości nie widać, bo wszyscy są w Jambiani. Tam są dobre restauracje, piwo i drinki. Nie to co w hotelu. Na herbatę czekałem 40 minut, choć przy barze nie było ani jednego klienta. Danie objadowe było małe i przyrządzone na starym tłuszczu. Ośmiorniczek było tak mało, że ledwo je znalazłe w tym sosie. Drinki zamiast ze soku były rozwadniane wodą. Zgroza, w miejscu gdzie owoców jest pod dostatkiem! Przy śniadaniu nie mogłem zamówić bekonu do omleta bo bekon był przy innych daniach z jajkiem. Do kierownictwa - poprawcie drinki, jadło i obsługę a oceny same wzrosną.
