The restaurant offers a variety of delicious dishes. The mango avocado salad and the tuna tartar were my favorites. The hotel is located just a couple of minutes away from the sea and a semi private beach. If you wish to organise day activities, the owner has the best contacts for you to enjoy that. These included sandbank tours with snorkeling and sea food lunch.

For me, this was a five-star experience — not in an ultra-luxury sense, but in the way everything here brings you into a deep state of calm. The atmosphere, the people, the surroundings… everything feels in harmony. The hotel is located on the quiet, non-touristic side of Zanzibar, which makes it the perfect place to truly unwind. The staff are warm, attentive and incredibly helpful. They even connected me with local contacts for my art project, which I appreciated immensely. The rooms are minimalist and beautifully simple — exactly my style. And the pool is very large and wonderfully relaxing, ideal for spending long, peaceful moments by the water. Breakfast is generous, much more than a standard offering. The lunch and dinner menu is limited and mostly vegetarian/vegan, but every dish is prepared with care and tastes fresh and thoughtful. What makes this place even more special is its connection to the Hospitality School located on the same property. Most of the staff are young women in training, and all proceeds support their education and future opportunities. Knowing this makes the stay feel even more meaningful. If you’re looking for a place with heart, serenity and authenticity — rather than a typical luxury resort — this is truly something unique.

If you like tranquillity and peace that is the best place where to stay, no mini clubs, no noise, just you and the ocean.. Petti and Manka, the girls that will take care of you, will always be nice, smiling and willing to do everything they can to accomodate you. Food is delicious. A nice walk will get you in the village with all the life you want. But here no beach boys. The room had a balcony with sea views so couldn't ask for more
