A Wonderful Hotel with Outstanding Service

While searching for accommodation, I read many reviews about this hotel, including some negative ones. Fortunately, I did not pay attention to them. We spent wonderful days at the hotel and honestly cannot think of a single negative thing to say. The staff were incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful, always available whenever we needed anything. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide selection of fruit, pastries, yogurt, coffee, and various hot dishes. Dinner consisted of three courses, and each course could be chosen in advance from 3–5 different options. Every evening the food was delicious, including seafood, chicken, beef, and vegetarian dishes. The appetizers, soups, salads, and desserts were also excellent. (Breakfast and dinner were included in our reservation) The hotel's restaurant (dinner time - it was not included in our reservation) is equally outstanding. The menu offers everything from local specialties to Italian cuisine. Main courses cost around €7–8, which is a very reasonable price. The rooms were cleaned every day and were always spotless. Every evening, the staff also prepared the beds by lowering the mosquito nets above them and spraying the rooms against mosquitoes. The hotel's location is also very good. Right outside the gate there are several shops, and the main street is within easy walking distance. The beach is beautiful, and guests can enjoy a peaceful atmosphere thanks to the security guard, who prevents beach vendors from entering the hotel area. There are also excellent snorkeling opportunities directly in front of the hotel. At low tide, the coral reefs are very close to shore, and we saw many colorful fish, including lionfish. We also became friends with a black-and-white cat. If you happen to see him during your stay, he will happily accept a few tasty treats and a little affection. Please take good care of him. :) Overall, we cannot say a single bad thing about our stay.

Good stay in the serene coast of Nungwi

The location is Calm and good. Sea view is partially visible from bed windows and the views from balcony is good. This place is good for family.

Internet was terrible to connect took us at least 6 times to get someone to connect it. Didn't have towels or water in room to a few attempts to get the staff to get it for us. Over charged us.
