“Disappointing photos to reality”
I have to say, this place was a disappointment. The photos online made it look really nice, but in reality the place was very dishevelled and even seemed to be in disrepair in places. My room had a small box of trash in it from the previous tenant, meaning the room wasn't properly cleaned before my arrival - bed itself was fine. Location is amazing though, right on the beach pretty much. I would recommend paying a bit more and staying somewhere better in Jambiani.

“I wouldn’t visit it again.”
The location for the money asked. Walking distance to the beach. But not beach front property.

The accommodation is appropriate. I would have liked less spiders, but I will take the sea view with the spiders at that price for sure.

I felt very comfortable here. Everyone here is very, very nice and you are in very good hands here. Breakfast was ok. And the location was very good and near to the sea. I really liked it here.

Super friendly stuff and you get a lot for little money. Breakfast changed nearly everyday and was sometimes a bit to much egg-based. But in request they prepared something without egg.
