  • Engine customer May 2026

    The staff was amazing from the front desk , to jthe Chefs , waitresses, security, house cleaners and Owner. I was also able to arrange tours at this location and dive shop was near by. The food was good The pool needs to be cleaned it had algae on floor surface and on side of pool. Being that I am a licensed Life Guard I was able to notice this immediately.

    We had a really pleasant stay at this hotel. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. Our room was tidy, comfortable, and had a nice view of the pool. The location was also convenient—just a short walk to the beach, which we appreciated. The food was fresh and clean. And we liked the variety in hot drinks options. A heartfelt thank-you to Monzela, a kind and thoughtful man who took the time to write us a list of useful words in Swahili for our next visit—such a meaningful and memorable gesture that we truly appreciated. Overall, it was a high-quality experience, and we’d definitely consider staying here again. Honestly, there wasn’t anything we didn’t like.

    Also important it's quiet place, you couldn't hear any party from outside even B4 ^) that's everything is pretty ok and valuable for money. No cons for this money

    I had a lovely stay at this cozy hotel just steps away from the beach. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, and the staff went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. I was upgraded upon request, and the room I received was spacious and well-kept. A special thank you to Banaldina, who was incredibly sweet and helpful throughout my stay. She made sure we had everything we needed in the room and was always checking in with a smile. Breakfast was good, and what really stood out was how genuinely friendly everyone was, from the watchman at the gate to the rest of the staff. It’s a place that makes you feel at home, and I’d definitely stay here again. Nothing

    The pool was well cared for and the staff was so friendly!

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    It’s in a great location, the staff was super friendly and attentive. The bed was very comfortable My room smelled strong of damp which was a bit off putting for the price paid.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Breakfast was good and stuff also nice. Lots of choices of bar and restaurants but you need to take a little walk. Hotel is located in a second line and walk to the beach might be sometimes a pain in the neck - you need to pass next to the next to stinky garbage dump. Blurry water in the swimming pool (although I could smell some chlorine so it must be maintained). Really too bad but I hope you guys can improve that :)

  • Engine customer Jan 2025

    I had a wonderful stay in this establishment. Everything was perfect. The cleanliness of the rooms, the location of the hotel and the very friendly, smiling staff. A hearty breakfast and a choice of dishes on the menu. Nothing.

    Superb

  • Engine customer Jan 2025

    Nice small hotel with friendly kitchen and bar crew. Food was good, breakfast selection fine ans variant. Spacious bed and room. AC worked well when there was electricity. Quite some package tourists kept a vivid atmosphere. The surrounding streets were flooded by rain and not comfortable to walk back after sunset. There were quite a lot of power cuts (which was unexpected in that price range) and I had the room next to the generator which was disturbing.

  • Engine customer Jan 2025

    Chilled place in a great location, nice breakfast and good wifi. They have a generator which is a must in an island with daily power cuts.

  • Engine customer Jan 2025

    The room was available even if we arrived earlier. Our reservation was for three people, but upon arrival, we were not provided with towels and sheets for the third guest. After requesting additional towels, we were given a towel and bed sheet that were both dirty, which was completely unacceptable. Additionally, the pool was in an unsatisfactory condition, being visibly dirty, and the breakfast offered was of poor quality and did not meet expectations for a hotel of your caliber. Overall, I found that the quality of service and the overall value did not align with what was promised or anticipated.
