Experience

Swimming Pools

At the centre of the property are two large main pools, surrounded by sun loungers and unique in-water beds for relaxing while staying cool. These pools are close to the bar and restaurant, making them an easy spot to spend the day.

All rooms have access to a pool — some directly from the veranda, others with a short walk, and some with a private section. Several of the pools are interconnected, allowing guests to swim between sections.

On-site Gym

The gym is open to all guests and equipped for a variety of workouts. Facilities include free weights (dumbbells and medicine balls), cable machines, treadmills, exercise bikes, and rowing machines. Yoga mats and sweat towels are provided, making it easy to keep up your fitness routine during your stay.

Lounge Area

The lounge area offers plenty of comfortable seating, with deep sofas set beneath a high makuti roof. It’s a cool, shaded space where guests can enjoy a snack, drink, read, or simply enjoy a break from the sun.

Games Room

The games room is open to guests of all ages, with two billiards tables, table tennis, foosball, and air hockey. Set beneath a spacious makuti roof, it’s a lively spot to enjoy a bit of friendly competition or simply relax between activities.

Boutique

The boutique features a small but carefully selected range of items, from casual clothing, sunglasses, and sun cream to souvenirs that capture the essence of Zanzibar. Guests can also browse locally made cosmetics from Inaya Zanzibar, known for their natural ingredients and island-inspired scents — a perfect reminder of your time here.

    “A magical place and an unforgettable stay” – March 2026

     

    This hotel is a true hidden gem — luxurious, elegant, and incredibly cozy, with a real sense of exclusivity and privacy.

    The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed with a refined, stylish touch. The pools are large and uniquely designed, creating the feeling of a true luxury resort. The grounds are immaculate, private, and filled with an incredible variety of lush plants and flowers — it truly feels like a tropical paradise.

    Housekeeping is flawless — everything is perfectly clean, neat, and maintained with great attention to detail. The staff throughout the hotel are exceptionally polite, warm, and attentive.

    A very special thank you to the hotel manager — absolutely outstanding! Always present, genuinely caring, and ensuring every guest feels special and well looked after.

    The hotel also offers a complimentary entertainment area with tennis, billiards, and board games, which adds even more comfort and enjoyment to the stay.

    The food is exquisite — every dish is beautifully prepared, and you can feel the passion and professionalism of the chefs.

    The ocean is, of course, breathtaking, though coral shoes are recommended due to natural corals.

    We have traveled extensively and are not easily impressed, but this place truly exceeded all our expectations. It offers not just a stay, but a refined and memorable experience we would gladly return to.

    “Great for relaxing” – February 2026

    The resort was charming. The staff was amazing.

    And on hand Every day they cleaned and changed the towels, sometimes it happened that they forgot to leave us new ones but there was no problem at the reception they will give you new towels right away :)

    They also go to the house in the evening to prepare the bed for sleeping, put up mosquito nets, and spray against insects.

    There is a games room, a new gym (air conditioned), 2 main large pools, a restaurant. The pools were amazing, one is shoulder deep with a view of the ocean.

    And the second one is stepped and also shoulder deep with a view of the ocean

    Each room has its own pool or shares it with a few others.

    There is a sufficient selection of food and drinks here, and I found the hygiene conditions to be excellent compared to other places.

    I would recommend this accommodation especially to people who really want to relax.

    It’s far from everything and you won’t find nightlife nearby.

    shop (35min walk) even minimal selection Yes, there is one at the resort, but it’s more about clothes and small things like… souvenirs

    The resort itself was beautiful and the team was great :) Thank you for a nice vacation

    “More than perfect. Already waiting to come back” – January 2026

    The place is perfect!!! A very high standard hotel. Amazing service!!! Courtesy and service are above all else. Amazing people!!! Large and comfortable rooms. Cleanliness 10/10

    Many beautiful, large pools and there are large spaces. The hotel is right on the sea. We are religious and keep kosher, so the manager Naima and Chef Patricio allowed us to cook freely in the kitchen and help them.
