Room 6 on the ground floor with view to the sea. It was clean and tidy with clean drinking water readily available. Did not observe cockroaches. Directly outside there is a separate, small terrace. Beneath it, there are sunbeds that were frequently used. By the beach at low tide, it is lovely to wade out over the sandbanks and at high tide to swim. The bathing temperature was an incredible 33-35 degrees Celsius in the sea. Fantastic. Around the pool area and the restaurant there is a beautiful garden with palm trees and flowers. The restaurant serves a freshly prepared breakfast with a varied selection for each individual guest. The staff are pleasant and try their best to provide a good stay.

This is a perfect boutique hotel on the beach in Jambiani a lovely spot in the south east of Zanzibar. The hosts are very welcoming and inforrmative. The staff lovely and friendly. The room has a terrace right next to the beach. The pool is beautiful as well as the surrounding area where one can relax with a cocktail. The food was very enjoyable. Highly recommended.

The property is beautiful! We stayed in a family suite with two bedrooms, three bathrooms and a huge open plan living area with a fridge, coffee machine and mini bar. There are some really thoughtful touches such as a water cooler in your room. Guido,the owner, is very present and always helpful. Breakfast was awesome and the food at other times was great too. It was also in walking distance of some other great places to eat. This is the best place I have stayed in in Zanzibar.

The villa is like a boutique hotel, everything is carefully prepared, planned and executed by Gidot and Angela and their staff. The breakfast is a feast and keeps you filled in until dinner. The excursions are carefully selected with trustworthy partners. We absolutely recommend the sail boat trip to the reef, that was definitely the highlight of our entire Zanzibar experience!!
