"Nice "
"Good hotel"
Rooms very comfortable and although no a/c no problem sleeping as well designed to benefit from trade winds. No problem with the so called brackish water. Breakfast could have been better - running out of bananas and mango on Zanzibar seems bizarre! Didn't eat there in the evening so can't comment on food but reports not great.
But design of hotel and setting lovely." See all these reviews: 8n in Zanzibar; 4n in Tanzania
"Great escape from the bustle of stone town"
We had a minor problem with a leaking toilet but this was fixed promptly...also the water was off for a while owing to a glitch but this didn't adversely effect our stay. A great place to chill." See all these reviews: 5n in Tanzania; 3n in Zanzibar
