Beautiful, small hotel right by the calm beach. Very clean and well maintained. Fantastic pool and delicious food (amazing breakfasts with outstanding home-made jam). However, the best part is the staff. Extremely helpful and professional (but not intrusive nor pushy as oftenly on Zanzibar). Navena is super friendly and one of the best hotel managers I have ever met. Together with the team, she will make your stay very comfortable and relaxing. We highly recommend this place!

Please be mindful that apartments (not villas) have limited view at the sea.

Great service . Wonderful staff . Very helpful and kind managers. Family villa was comfortable ideal for family or two couples. The location is very quiet and beautiful. If not for the work, we will extend another week .

I stayed 7 nights we used the hotel restaurant every day . Breakfast was great, but after a few days, I needed something different than the usual menu .

the apartment was like in pictures, clean, spacious, nice view to the ocean ( just palm disturbed a little bit to much to the terrace)

Food - weak point of hotel ( we had poisoned with food - wife-2 times ( one of them shortly before way to airport, were sick for 12 hours( all way to airport and all flight) myself -2 times while staying- my advice avoid fresh fish and Benedict eggs, other food was good just sometimes to salty or oily, price of local wine overpriced 5 times)

Their villas are amazing. Great place to relax and enjoy your vacation away from touristic beaches and annoying sellers. The staff was very kind and always with a big smile.

Only negatives are the small food portions compared to ther price, the litthle bit expensive transfer rates and the not so good wifi connection.

The hotel was clean, inviting and on an absolutely stunning location on the beach. The facilities were always immaculately kept and we felt able to truly relax while here. The staff really made our experience and all were friendly and willing to work hard to make our stay as relaxing and stress free as possible. Special shout out to David, Mary and Zoe in the bar and restaurant who were fantastic! We had some issues with the air conditioning unit in our room and the management were quick to give us a solution which meant we could continue to enjoy our stay. The food in the restaurant was very tasty, and we thought reasonably priced considering the slightly remote location of the hotel. Because of this we enjoyed eating in the hotel most of the time. The drinks fridge was well stocked however the drinks could sometimes have been a little colder. In terms of activities this hotel makes a great base from which to explore the island, and the hotel was able to book reliable and safe travel around the island. We went snorkelling, swimming with dolphins, BBQ on a sand bank. Overall we really loved the location, the hotel was very clean and the staff really made our stay! A beautiful holiday and we are already looking forward to returning to Zanzibar and this hotel!

We found the beds a little hard for our taste, we would have liked an option to have a mattress topper.

it’s really nice and cozy located in a quiet place , which I really liked, no noises, no loud music, just nature sounds. so if you want to relax that’s your place. the property is clean , and is being cleaned and maintained throughout the day. hot shower, shower gel/shampoo is all available . the sockets are European, so you need adapter if you brought 3 pin chargers like in UK, I didn’t, but they borrowed me one breakfast is ok, dinner is really tasty and great variety of options the staff are really great, very helpful , honest and positive thank you guys for helping me with my foot! yes, bring the beach shoes with you, don’t even think of coming without beach shoes to Zanzibar.

beach , so there is no private beach , but there is direct access to it from the property. but if you want to swim you need to walk almost to the end of the beach to find the spot for swimming and frankly speaking the beach is dirty, the water is nice and clean and turquoise, but the beach is not.

Great place. beautiful Villa. very confortable and clean. very calm area of Zanzibar. great view. The garden and the area around the pool is very well maintained. At low tide you can see the fisherman fishing and woman harvesting the sea weeds. it is a great place to rest by the ocean and the service is great. The breakfast and the juices are so good

There were no sun beds on the beach, so it is difficult to enjoy the beach Clove island is far from the village and from any shops. Taxi is needed all the time.

What was not to like? Excellent location; really quiet away from the hustle and bustle of touristic places. Nice beach, really big villa (we had the 4 person) with view directly on the pool and beach and ocean. Really clean, super friendly staff, good breakfast, good choice of food for diner. We had a really great time.

Normally when power goes down (which is happens every now and again) the generator takes over within a couple of minutes/seconds except for our last night; it gets pretty hot without airco. I assume it was a one time problem as all the other nights were perfect. Besides that the mattress are quit hard so if that is your thing this is definitely the place to be.

The accommodation was spacious, modern but characterful and the location was outstanding. The balcony and downstairs terrace area were a bonus and it was great having a fridge and kitchenette. The air conditioning was really welcome, as were the mosquito nets. We were extremely pleased by the accommodation. The pool was a good size, with varying depths which made it suitable for all ages. The planting was very well conceived and perfectly pitched for a relaxed but luxurious Zanzibar vibe. The food was very good (extremely fresh) and there was plenty of variety. The prices were fair and the Happy hour (two hours!) every day was a lovely touch.

It would have been useful to have had some hangers and also more hooks to hang towels, but these were small issues and if we had raised them I am sure the staff would have done everything they could to have assisted us. It would have been helpful to know that the plugs were continental European style, rather than Tanzanian/3 pin plugs as we could then have brought our own adapters. However, this was not a problem as the hotel managers provided us with some to use.

The property is located away from busy touristy areas, it’s a heaven for relaxation , super clean, ocean view, direct access to the beach (due to tides it is not suitable for swims but paddling is ok ) villas are spacious and in a lovely garden setting with a large pool and loungers The staff are very attentive they offer an exceptional top quality breakfast We also had dinner at the restaurant every night and the food was excellent The manager on duty when we were there , Nevena, was the best she was attentive, kind, made us feel welcome and special

A little far from restaurants, bars, shops but it was not important to us as we came from Paje and we were looking for a restful few days
