I loved how it was so quiet and remote from all the Paje happening. The team was extremely nice - especially Amina, Alfred , Kaspis , Hamadi and Suliman . They all were very service oriented. The pool was lovely and intimate. Food was great

Loved most

  • Outstanding, named staff who made stays memorable (Robert, Elizabeth, Josephin, Suleiman, Pendo, Rahma)
  • Beautiful, private beach and tranquil, intimate resort atmosphere
  • Immaculate rooms and tasteful decor
  • Excellent massage and relaxing pool area
  • Friendly, professional service overall

Worth knowing — Intermittent island-wide power outages (backup generator used) · Limited dining options (one restaurant/bar) and repetitive evening menu · Pool area lacks umbrellas and proactive towel service · Housekeeping/detail inconsistencies and no turndown service noted · Uncomfortable mattresses/limited pillow choices and occasional construction/noise · Algae on the beach and presence of local sellers affected beach use for some guests

How guests scored the stay

  • Overall Experience9.9

    Overall very positive — tranquil, relaxing, welcoming and memorable stays emphasized repeatedly despite a few service/detail shortcomings and local issues.

  • Service9.8

    Staff repeatedly highlighted by name as outstanding, friendly and professional; service is a standout feature that made stays memorable.

  • Location9.6

    Beautiful beachfront setting and intimate resort atmosphere praised; some guests noted algae on the beach and presence of local sellers that slightly impacted beach use.

  • Cleanliness9.3

    Generally described as immaculately clean and praised for propreté; occasional notes about housekeeping attention to detail (some guests expected more thoroughness).

  • Food and Beverage8.5

    Food described as pretty good with decent variety by some, while others found it basic and repetitive (evening menu similar each night).

  • Amenities8.4

    Nice pool and excellent massages reported, but resort is small with only one restaurant/bar, pool area lacks umbrellas and towel service, and occasional power outages affect facilities.

  • Room Quality8.3

    Rooms are tastefully decorated and clean, but some guests reported uncomfortable mattresses and pillows and limited pillow choice.

  • Value for Money8.2

    Mixed sentiment: some feel accommodation is good for the price, others expected more (e.g., turn-down service, finer dining) given the cost.

    “Thank you! We really enjoyed our stay it was very relaxing and quiet. The hotel is beautiful, set right on a perfect beach, beautiful decor, rooms are very tastefully decorated and immaculately clean, the staff do an amazing job. Note the rooms are in the main building and not individual villas. The staff in the restaurant and housekeeping are amazing and nothing is too much trouble. The food was pretty good, nice variety. The massage is excellent although can get noisy as right next to the pool.”

  • Foi uma boa estadia.

    “tt bra boende i förhållande till priset, med nära till stranden. När vi var där i mars var det tyvärr ganska mycket alger på stranden, vilket gjorde att vi inte badade där så mycket. Hotellet är litet och väldigt intimt, vilket skapar en mysig och lugn känsla. Poolområdet är trevligt och maten är helt okej med tanke på att man är i Tanzania. Sammantaget ett trevligt ställe att bo på.”
