For that price very nice place. Staff was very friendly, breakfast was good. One night dinner was 10/10 but two nights I would say 8/10. Pool area is nice, gym is small and hot (poor air conditioning). Would recommend and visit again.

The property is nice, cute rooftop, good was good. Downside: the area surrounding is not the safest, you can’t enjoy the beach in front because there are people trying to sell stuff aaaaaall the time and there are way too many sea urchins there (bring water shoes); WiFi is almost nonexistent.

The hotel is perfectly situated on the beach. Staff are wonderful, friendly and very helpful; in particular the manager who made an effort to provide advice and help when I was concerned about my flight. Food is good, with plenty of choice and the cocktails are great! The room is spacious, clean and quiet. There are two pools so the area doesn’t feel crowded Highly recommend

This property is surly a dream. The property overall is very well kept and you can constantly see the staff doing all kinds of up keep. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the staff is absolutely amazing; From the amazing front desk crew to the restaurant and the rooftop pub (except at the morning breakfast buffet team that were unfriendly and not attentive). My wife had several services at the spa, and she said that the service was exceptional. We travel a lot and I cant remember giving all 5 stars, I can't say enough about this place.

This was like staying in paradise. Our room was spacious and bright. Just a few steps outside our door is the pool and a beautiful white sand beach on the Indian Ocean. Soraka.tours made our reservations and took care care of everything. I will definitely use them again. Kathy

Amazing hotel with amazing staff

This hotel and is staff is just amazing. Really great service - and were really helpful. Specially Aika helped us out, and was really excellent in getting us a dinner change. (When what we wanted was not on the menu) The hotel is new, and nice. Everything was clean - and we had the beach right outside. It was a bit tricky to swim in the ocean outside the hotel, but we managed. It is 15 min walk in the beach to get to Nungwi beach/center
