“we will not come again”
we boocked for a certain price and when we arrived these rooms had no bathrooms. Rooms with bathrooms costed dubble the price ... intransparent communication Also the price for anything changed by the bank rate when we wanted to pay in T shilling. Impossible behaviour, Unless you want to make your clients angry

“Lovely, quiet beachside holiday. Kids had a great time!”
Great location in Bagamoyo, very quiet beach and great facilities including an enormous pool. The food was very good and a great variety, and nice little touches like juice on arrival. The staff were the best part, going out of their way to be incredibly helpful and doing more for us- like cutting down a fresh coconut or arranging for a snorkelling trip (that was unfortunately not able to go ahead because of the weather). It’s a beautiful, beachside resort and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
