    Located in the tranquil East coast, this hotel offers a serene atmosphere and breathtaking natural surroundings. Guests can enjoy the pool area with plenty of sun loungers and hammocks or relax on the sandy beach right alongside the hotel. The rooms are spacious and clean, with some offering a garden view and comfortable poster beds. The staff provides exceptional service, ensuring a memorable stay for guests. The breakfast offers a variety of options, and the Jetty Bar is a must-visit spot for cocktails and light lunch.

    Limited food menu and room facilities.

    The hotel's location right on the beach offers stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff provided excellent service and made my birthday extra special with a surprise cake. The hotel facilities, including the pool and the jetty bar, were well-maintained and enjoyable. The breakfast was fantastic, offering a variety of options to start the day.

    Nothing for me.

    The hotel had two movie nights and a band performance during our stay, which was a nice addition to the relaxing atmosphere. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. The hotel's location was perfect, offering easy access to nearby attractions and activities.

    We were disappointed that some of the activities advertised were not available during our stay, such as cooking lessons and art classes. Additionally, there was no hairdryer provided in the room.

    This lovely resort offers a stunning location right next to the beach, providing guests with great views and easy access to the sandy shores. Additionally, it is conveniently located fairly outside of the village, perfect for those seeking a tranquil atmosphere. The rooms are comfortable and equipped with AC, while the bathrooms are well-maintained. The friendly and helpful staff ensure excellent service. Guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast and take advantage of facilities such as the spacious pool and the amazing wooden pier with a bar.

    Some aspects of the room decor and facilities could benefit from renovation and improvement.

    We had a wonderful time staying at a hotel near Jambiani. The location was stunning and the natural surroundings were exquisite. The pool was amazing, and we enjoyed relaxing on the jetty with a drink in hand. The room and bathroom were spacious and comfortable. The hotel even had a wood lounge overlooking the sea that turned into a movie theater some evenings - complete with free popcorn! we highly recommend this hotel.

    I had the best stay at this hotel! The cleanliness was impeccable, and the hotel facilities were top-notch. The location right on the beach provided breathtaking views, and the jetty bar and restaurant were a nice touch. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

    Not one thing.

    We stayed at this hotel during our vacation and had a wonderful time. The location is perfect, right on the beach with a beautiful Jetty lounge where we could relax and enjoy the stunning views. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff who always made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The room was spacious and clean, and we really liked the restaurant which had a lovely wooden construction and a lounge area. The food was delicious and we enjoyed eating right by the beach. this hotel provided us with a great experience.

    The only downside was that the menu for breakfast was the same every day and lacked variety. However, we would still recommend this place to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay with great services.
