Liked: Cleanliness
Large and airy communal areas. Nice garden with swimming pool. Large room with a/c. Cons/ Essentially an all inclusive hotel for Italians. As non Italian and solo traveller I felt pretty much ignored much of the time. Hotel is a bit out on a limb so tricky if you don’t want to pay to eat at the all inclusive buffet as it’s a bit of a walk in pitch black to get to any bars / restaurants. Dhaka Salaam to beach is handy but now staying in beach front accommodation in Nungwi which is nicer, cheaper and more convenient.
