The Perfect Stay

I will be recommending this hotel to friends and family visiting Zanzibar as I am confident they will love it. Every part of the experience was perfect and executed to a very high standard. The service was incredible and made a lasting impression. The rooms were made up beautifully and the food was delicious. The team at this hotel were the best I have experienced. If you’re looking for opulence and a lovely stay, this is the place to book.

The hotel is a bit dated. The food is mediocre. If you want a beach to swim in they do not have one. You will need to be transported to another beach where you will have to pay for seats. For the price you are better off staying in a hotel with a beach you can swim in. There are much better options in more convenient areas. This hotel is out of the way and not close to anything. Everything is at least an hour away or more. I would not stay at the hotel.
