The owners are amazing, Max & Elena were so friendly with us and helpful with whatever we needed. Also they contacted us through whatsapp before we come to make sure everything is clear with their facility, restaurants recommendations, breakfast timings, and more. They made great decorations for me & my daughter birthday. Also they provided a yummy fruity cake. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone who wants to visit Zanzibar, the place is near the beach only two min away. Near all the activities, and local shops, and restaurants. Max was very welcoming, they have friendly dog that my daughter loved alot. I LOVED the place so much, definitely gonna stay here again if am back to Zanzibar.
