The VVIP Premium service. We were upgraded to the top of the range Lagoon suite. Our Butler Edwin made sure we had everything we needed. Overall staff were excellent, friendly and professional. This is by far the best vacation we ever had.

I arrived a day later than planned due to a flight delay and although my booking for the missed night was not refundable they gave me a room for free for another night. That was really very nice :-). The hotel itself has the perfect location in stone town and is beautifully kept in traditional Zanzibar style. The staff is also very friendly..

I love everything about this hotel. It's location, it's views, it's rooms and facilities, but most importantly it's ppl. I felt very welcomed and at home. Only dislike if I have to say something, is that there are currently renovations happening in the left wing which are not a bad thing because they'll eventually enhance the experience. But that resulted in a litttttle bit of noise, barely noticeable for me but other ppl may be annoyed.

Great clean, comfortable apartments across from the Tembo hotel; we liked being independent but with the use of the hotel facilities. Super location with friendly, helpful staff. Arranged a walking tour of Stonetown (the guide was called Chief - he was brilliant!) and a spice farm visit via reception - they were both excellent; really good value and both with a private guide.
