Un sĂ©jour exceptionnel ! J'ai passĂ© un sĂ©jour vraiment agrĂ©able dans cet hĂŽtel. La chambre Ă©tait spacieuse, trĂšs propre et Ă©quipĂ©e de tout le confort nĂ©cessaire, y compris une literie de qualitĂ© et une salle de bain moderne. Le personnel Ă©tait exceptionnellement accueillant, sympathique et toujours prĂȘt Ă  aider, ce qui a vraiment rendu mon sĂ©jour encore plus agrĂ©able. La dĂ©coration intĂ©rieure est Ă©lĂ©gante et chaleureuse. La localisation est parfaite, Ă  proximitĂ© des principales attractions. Les Ă©quipements de l’hĂŽtel, comme la piscine, la salle de massage, offrent un vrai plus pour se dĂ©tendre. La cuisine proposĂ©e Ă©tait Ă©galement trĂšs bonne, avec des plats variĂ©s et savoureux. Enfin, le rapport qualitĂ©-prix est excellent. Je recommande vivement cet hĂŽtel Ă  tous ceux qui cherchent un endroit confortable, bien situĂ© et avec un service irrĂ©prochable. J’y retournerai sans hĂ©siter ! Merci a vous ! Hakuna matata !!!!!

Superbe hĂŽtel

Superbe séjour au Tamu Tamu Boutique Hotel. TrÚs bien entretenu, propre, le personnel était vraiment super, aux petits soins, pleins d'attention. Les serveurs étaient trÚs sympatiques et professionnels, la femme de ménage aussi, ainsi que les managers et assistants. Un véritable plaisir de rester ici. Plage à 50 m, sympa à marée haute, piscine super. Possibilité de manger sur place, et c'est trÚs bon ! Ils peuvent vous assister pour organiser des excursions. J'avais un appartement avec petite cuisine, grand salon, grande salle de bains, grande chambre. Si je reviens à Zanzibar, je réserverai ici à nouveau !
