Staff is amazing and it’s a wonderful place to stay!
Great place, food was good, different things every day. Animation team had a very interesting program every night, daytime it could be more variation. Pool and pool area is great.
Great place to stay. Smallish resort. Easy going, plenty of sunbeds without having ro reserve early morning. Food was varied and excellent every night, without being overwhelmed. Nothing else in the immediate vicinity, so ideal for getting away from it all. Lovely isolated beach, on the doorstep. Totally unspoilt.
Beautiful views but isolated part of the island. Takes 1.5 hours to airport and stone town. The staff was amazing and accommodating to my 2 year old son. He had an amazing time. I thought there would be more seafood options at dinner. But otherwise this was an excellent stay.
We spent 5 days of our honeymoon here and it was great! Staff was exceptional, every single one of them. It was the first time we had all inclusive and was a bit worried in terms of the food but we had nothing to worry about because it was so much variation and it was all good. Entertainment was great as well and the activities offered throughout the day. I say this with all respect, and that is that we feel like when a large resort like this is in a very local area, it should take responsibility for its surroundings. There is a lot of trash if you want to go for a walk, maybe a beach cleanup could be something you can start with and even include the guest. This makes you leave the resort feeling better if you feel like you support a business that cares about the area and not only the property <3

Nach einer langen Anreise mussten wir 1,5h auf das Zimmer warten, da das Zimmer noch nicht fertig geputzt war, obwohl wir nach 14 Uhr einchecken wollten. Nach 20h unterwegs sein, echt horror.. Naja gut soweit, gebucht war ein Doppelzimmer mit Meeresblick; im Zimmer hatten wir jedoch Gartensicht und sahen das Meer nicht. Bei Rückmeldung, hies es sie seien ausgebucht und es gibt keine Entschädigung.. Essenstechnisch, wenig Auswahl, dafür tägliche Abwechslung. Einziges Manko: Das Essen war nicht herabgekühlt, Joghurt / Milch etc. langen bei 36 Grad ungekühlt herum. Ansonsten coole Animation / Abendprogramme auch super! Auswärts gibts in der Nähe wenig zu sehen, mit dem Taxi jedoch gut erreichbar, Stone Town etc trotzdem ca. 1.5h entfernt.. Die Anlage ist schön begrünt, Strandlage direkt vor dem Hotel, jedoch viele Algen vorhanden.

Estadia agradável. O quarto não era dos melhores, especialmente o banheiro que saia água durante o banho e o chuveiro da toillete que também vertia água. O quarto merecia ser melhor para um hotel de 4 estrelas.
A comida era bastante saborosa, nota 100 de 0 à 100.
Très bel hôtel. Je ne regrette pas du tout mon choix pour cet hôtel. Les chambres sont grandes la piscine est top les enfants se sont amusés. La plage juste à côté de la piscine c’est le petit plus. Par contre il y’a rien autour de l’hôtel comme activités. L’hôtel en propose donc ça va
