Quiet, relaxing break in a paradise setting

Pros: Nice Beach, clean, spacious and comfortable rooms, friendly staff.
Location: Location is good although not much to see locally unless you do spice farm tours and trip to Stone Town and hours drive away.
This place is ideal for a quiet, relaxing break in a paradise setting. It is about an hours drive from the airport and the hotel can arrange transport if required. The hotel can also arrange day trips to Stone Town, The beach is clean and the beach boys are less of a hassle than places like Mombasa except the odd one who may be on drugs, ideally stay away from beach boys where possible. The hotel has security guards who keep away the beach boys when possible. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable and include tea and coffee facility, fridge, a/c, fan, mosquito nets and safe. The rooms are kept very clean, go for villa 2 or 3 if you can manage the extra cost. There is wifi in rooms and in dining areas. The staff are extremely polite and friendly. Charles the house manager personally speaks to each guest morning at breakfast and at evening meals, The food is very good and on request the chef specially prepared vegetarian options we enjoyed. The sea is great for swimming but beware of sea urchins further away, don't venture out too far.

Beautiful

Location: There is a Kite school next to the hotel and we did a really cool spice tour. The dolphin tour was also amazing and the Stone Town was very informal!
It was a beautiful holiday and very friendly staff. The rooms were perfectly clean (were cleaned twice or three times a day). The beach very near with almost no tourists. We really really enjoyed this holiday and would go there again!
