The room and the facilities are very comfortable. The breakfast is rich and delicious. The owner and his assistant, Viktor are exceptionally friendly and helpful in really everything. The biggest help was that Viktor arranged motorcycle taxi (boda-boda) every day to the beach. The price is 3.000. TSH. for one way. Thank you again Jusuf and Viktor for the cosy accomodation :)

First of all we owe a huge thanks to the management of the place, helping us retrieve our camera bag that we left in our taxi after a day trip. You can really count on these guys, that is for sure. The room was spectacular, all the materials used in this formal master bedroom was just marvellous. The ocean beach right in front of the place has the smoothest sand around, spent actual hours walking back and forth after sunset there. The restaurant/bar where we had our breakfast and dinner had the best food that we tried all over Zanzibar. The garden and the pool is regularly cleaned and maintaned as well. The accomodation is decorated very nicely with local accessories and furniture. All in all, we had a great time here :)

This is one of the best places I have stayed at. The room was great (we stayed in the new bungalows - highly recomend), the staff was super friendly and the place in general has a great vibe. We stayed there for a week, we were working remotely so we used their "digital nomads space". The interent worked pretty well 90% of the time. The restaurant had decent options and it wasn't pricy at all.

The breakfast was fresh and delicious with plenty of options to choose from. The location was great and close to everything we needed. A big shout-out to Mohammed (Muddi) at the reception; he was so welcoming and really made us feel at home.

We were there for 8 days. The best! The owner is a very very cool guy, he helps you with literally anything you need. The breakfast is delicious and the place is beautiful, lots of plants and places to hang out in the evening. The staff is friendly. The Nungwi beach is not that far, approximately 25 minutes walking and 5 minutes by taxi, which is not that expensive and the owner helps you arrange it for you. Awsome! We recommend😁

Crazy man is really crazy in a very nice way. He helps you out all the time, gets you the best deals on tours and restaurants and he is just a really cool and nice guy. From the roof terrace you can see sunrise and sunset (not at the sime time ;-) ) and you have a 270° view on the ocean.

    Charming Boutique hotel lovingly designed down to the smallest detail. Wonderful rooms, large balcony, great breakfast and dinner. White powdery sand beach only one step away - quiet and clean at all times. Amazing owners. Very friendly and always helpful staff. Arranged for me everything. Service level: 10++/10. You come as a stranger and leave as a friend. Recommendation: 100%
