I had a pleasant stay overall. The rooms were comfortable and the staff was friendly, creating a serene environment. However, the insulation could be better, and the presence of crows waiting for food was a bit off-putting. The view of the Indian Ocean from my room during breakfast was a definite highlight.

The staff was very hospitable and always ready to assist. However, it seemed like they were overworked and not well-treated by the management, which affected their enthusiasm. The arrangement for using the gym at a neighboring hotel turned out to be broken, which was disappointing.

The location is lovely and pleasant, with pretty surroundings and a clean, long sandy beach. It offers a tranquil setting in the upmarket Mbezi area.

The dining options are decent with a variety, but the same offerings every morning might get monotonous. The outdoor dining area is lovely, especially if you enjoy a bit of noise from the busy beach on weekends.

The facilities are well-maintained, and the spa provides a relaxing experience. However, the lack of proper insulation in the rooms and the presence of crows waiting for food can be drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were very beautiful, clean, and well-equipped, but unfortunately, they were broken into by hotel staff during a fire incident, resulting in the loss of all my belongings. The service was friendly and helpful, though there was an issue before bedtime. The location was a bit dark and isolated, making it challenging to navigate back to my room, and it didn't make up for lost reservations and food poisoning incidents. The dining experience was not good overall. Despite these setbacks, the hotel does offer some great facilities and amenities.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On one hand, the service was fantastic with incredibly polite and helpful staff going the extra mile to make my stay enjoyable. On the other hand, the rooms were a disaster with maintenance issues and unwanted chemical spraying in the middle of the night. The beachfront location was beautiful, but noise disturbances from parties took away from the tranquility. Dining was a hit or miss with some excellent dishes but too much repetition. Overall, a mixed bag.

My room experience was terrible. The unit froze over from leaking water, leading to a midnight visit from maintenance, who, despite prior notifications, sprayed chemicals in the room. It was an unfortunate situation, especially with multiple bridal parties also affected.

The location, though on the shores of the Indian Ocean with beautiful island views, had some drawbacks. Issues with reservations and noise disruptions from ongoing works and parties affected the overall experience.

The hotel boasts spacious and uniquely classical rooms that are well-built and maintained, offering a charming stay. The staff, while not overly talkative, provided a complimentary late checkout that was greatly appreciated. The location directly on the beach is a major plus, though it's advisable to check for ongoing construction works. The dining experiences offer varied options and a lively atmosphere but can be expensive at times.

I had a love-hate experience at this hotel. While the rooms were not in their best shape, with an A/C and TV that were not working, and even the kettle broken, the view of the beach from the room was so inviting that I just wanted to keep the windows open to enjoy it all night.

The dining experience was a hit or miss. On weekends, with a lot of options and a lively beach atmosphere, it was great, but during the week, the choices were lacking.
