The hotel arranged transport from the airport. It was a short boat ride and felt very VIP. Staff were friendly and cute! The hotel grounds feel like a quiet oasis. I spent a morning at the pool. It was very relaxing
The rooms were not in great condition. I noticed the fans did not work very well. The rooms are dirty and require maintenance. There was no hot water in the room.

a true haven of tranquility
fresh flowerscultural experienceweak wifi
I felt immediately at ease. The attention to detail was evident throughout (i particularly loved the fresh flowers in the room). the staff were always available, their assistance prompt and courteous. our swahili dinner was a lovely cultural experience. The food was authentic and delicious.
The wifi signal was quite weak in our room. I had to go to the common area to get a stable connection. this made it difficult to handle some urgent work emails.

The pool is saltwater and remains open 24 hours. This allowed for refreshing swims at any time. there are several common areas located on each floor. These spaces are perfect for meals or quiet reading. yoga sessions are available in the mornings.
