The neighborhood is calmer than Stone Town, with vehicle access and wider roads, making it convenient for arrivals and departures. Cultural attractions and ferry terminals are easily reached by car.
Nearby Attractions
The area is quiet and residential, especially in the evenings. Most activity takes place inside the hotel or in Stone Town, rather than in the immediate surroundings.

Loved by Guests, Trusted for Excellence
The cleanliness and the staff were excellent. Easy access to the community and main tourism site
I stayed in the one bedroomed suite overlooking the ocean and I found it to be adequately spacious and homely. The space was exceptionally clean, all supplies were provided and what wasn't was just a phone call away. I happened to be there on a Saturday night and so got to have some of the barbecue buffet...it was delicious. The breakfast was really yummy too. On the day I was leaving, I requested and was given a take away breakfast which I found quite delightful. The staff are very professional and friendly. They went the extra mile to ensure that I was comfortable. Special credit goes to Jacqueline, Tuesday and Barak. Ebraheem and The Masai Boy were very cordial too. In all, I had a very comfortable stay at the hotel and would choose it again when I next travel to Zanzibar.
We LOVED everything!! The location is perfect for exploring stone town and the nearby beaches. The food was sumptuous, the breakfasts set the perfect tone for each day. A stand out meal was the lamb biriani. Every person must try this. The room and the views were also brilliant. The best part of the stay though will have to be the staff, they are cream of crop when it comes to customer service in Tanzania. Making you feel right at home at every turn. The nicknames they have are a brilliant touch. I would like to single out Jacqueline with her ever present smile and calmness, Musa and finally Baraka (who we believe should be called `the plug`) for always having ready answers to our numerous questions and solutions on how to better experience Zanzibar. They made our stay that much more beautiful and helped us discover more of Zanzibar.
The rooms were just too good and very spacious. We are a regular in Zanzibar, but never seen such spacious rooms. Breakfast was amazing, options from swahili all the way to continental.
The staff were lovely, which was the only redeeming part of our stay. Hijrah on Reception was exceptionally helpful and kind and Barraka was also polite and helpful.
