Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The last review of this property was over two years ago, and I’m not sure where the photos were taken from. Dark, damp and mouldy facilities. Bucket and mop in shower and no toilet paper. I had to leave within the first hour of arriving. There was no mention that this place is a public place for turtles, and there were strangers sitting at your front door. Just did not feel well with the odour in the room. I just hope the turtles have better accommodations.

If You are looking for an American/European resort this place May disappoint you. When I travel I like authentic local places. This place is totally Africa. Breakfast was modest and great. The food to order from the kitchen was fresh and very reasonably priced. The bring the food to you in front of your bungalow. Security was good. The highlight of my entire trip was swimming with the turtles that you can do for free if you stay here. Very close to beach and local Zoo.

A éviter !

Hôtel à fuir.....soit disant à côté des tortues qui sont emprisonnés dans un petit bassin, à 2 pas de la mer, leur habitat naturel.... Pauvres bêtes !! Sans parler des singes qui commencent à être emprisonnés de la même façon, dans une cage. La chambre n'était pas très propre, pas d'eau chaude, douche pas très fonctionnelle, goutte à goutte....Passage incessant de touristes. Nous avons dû partir sur le champ sans obtenir de remboursement conforme à ce que nous avions régler. Il nous a retenu 150 dollars alors que nous n'avons utiliser aucune des 2 chambres.

Belle endroit et propre. Les gens sont très accueillant. Le petit déjeunet est servi à la chambre et il est très bon et bien complet. Le petit restaurant est très bien . La pizza est excellente et le personnel est vraiment gentil.

It’s a cheap alternative in Zanzibar. The staff is very helpful and it’s lovely to be able to spent as much time as you want with the turtles! 20 minutes walk on the beach to the « center » of Nuwengui!

Wel oke hotel

Hotel is ver van het levendige gebied af. 2 personeelsleden waren geweldig 1/ degene die mij had ingecheckt heeft mij ontzettend geholpen met vervoer naar het andere Baraka hotel (personeel daar ook geweldig). 2/ degene die mij informatie heeft volstrekt over de schildpadden ook super! Hij had al mijn vragen beantwoord en nog eens fotos van mij en de schildpadden genomen. Kijk uit voor de beveiliger als je alleen reist.
