Looking over the indian ocean with quite an interesting architecture and history throughout stone town, I definitely fell for this place. The hotel staff especially the doorman/greeter was especially helpful and tended to everything big and small! I will definitely return! Food was delicious too!

I had dinner there two times, the food is amazing. the staff is the most warm i met in zanzibar/tanzania. There was some life music going before dinner, they have an private beach outside of town. Went there as well and found the most stunning views and had a nice swim there. The view and sunset are stunning from the hotel
