Had a lovely stay here. It feels very friendly due to the low number of houses, so people become familiar and you feel part of the place. It also feels more local, you are amongst the shops and streets and not just isolated in a hotel. Truda and Alex were so helpful and friendly! great breakfeast, great stay...great coffee from Truda ;-) Overall we had a lovely time. It is a 7min walk from beach but I liked that because I got local cassava chips or had a beer from the local store and enjoyed my walk! and they have a dog called Beauty!

food was absolutely exceptional. Kai, the Chef is really amazing. it was as if, everyday, we were invited in a "gastronomique restaurant", buffets were gorgeous, different each day, very delicate and tasty. He is really exceptional, and we did not expect such a wonderful food experience. staff is friendly, helpful, thanks to the General Manager , Tuan , who is everywhere and always there to make our stay an incredible experience. He has been very attentive to us all the time during our stay, as well as Anthony, his F&B manager. good singers in the evening, during dinner. although the hotel has 76 rooms, the staff makes you feel "at home" with a very personal and professional approach. Aisha at the reception was of great help. beach is very beautiful, you can swim there, unlike in the East Coast where we stayed before. see is "turquoise". there are plenty of room and deck chairs for everyone to rest , we did not use the swimming pool as we prefer to take advantage of the sea , but it is very large. we hope to be back in this wonderful place, where we stayed only 3 nights, it was not enough to enjoy the place, and the marvellous huge beach of white sand . (if you like to walk, turn left, you will see a small and charming "port" and the sea is more "turquoise" than in any other place.

We loved our five night stay at Secret Garden villa. It's beautiful and comfortable and at a walking distance from the beach, restaurants and shops. Gabry was very helpful with everything we needed and kindly welcomed us for an early check in. We'd happily stay again when we're in Zanzibar again.

perfect location on the best beach in zanzibar. Beautiful:) loads of activities like boat trips, hair braiding, spa treatments, and all the water sports. not to mention the incredible sunset. We got the bungalow, right next to the beach with a plunge pool, and enjoyed it throughly. If we come back to zanzibar, will definitely book that kind of room again.
