I’d rate my stay here a solid 10/10! Even though I travelled solo, it never once felt like it. The resort truly felt like a home away from home. The environment was stunning and peaceful, the staff were outstanding, and the service was top-notch with prompt assistance whenever needed. If I ever return to Zanzibar, this will definitely be my go-to place to stay.

This was the best little hotel I’ve stayed at in a long time. The food was amazing. Rooms were clean and the staff went above and beyond to make you feel welcomed. They also arranged excursions and taxis me. I’ll be back :)

The resort was clean and the room was spacious. I paid for the upgrade to ocean view and am glad I did that. We had a large balcony (on 2nd floor) that provided shade and a nice breeze. Restaurant was also good and I enjoyed the pizza. The pools were small and looked “tired”. Could use a refresh. The beach cabanas were nice though and we used those. Paid some young boys to navigate the urchins at low tide out to the reef. It was fun to do!

Wow - we had such a perfect stay. For starters, the hotel is GORGEOUS from the lobby to the restaurants to the rooms. Food was in general very very good. Great pool, beautiful beach and very nice rooms. Evening activities were fun and allowed the guests to interact with each other and the staff. But by far the most amazing thing about the hotel were the staff. Service was beyond amazing and every one was so friendly - anticipating your every need and want. Quite possibly the best service I have...

Incredible location, resort, staff and food. I stayed here for 10 nights and it was perfect. The rooms are spacious with a tasteful interior equipped with air conditioning. The villas are situated in a garden with paths, overlooking the ocean on a small cliff. The staff is attentive and eager to provide excellent service. As a solo female traveler I felt very comfortable, safe and well taken care of. I highly recommend!!

The staff was amazing special thanks to Grace, Blandina and mangager Alexandro,.

Was fantastic Maybe I would re think it as a honeymoon destination as there were a lot of kids there especially using the pool. Otherwise just fantastic.

The property itself is very nice and well kept. The staff were also great! The pool is nice but a little deep at 1.4m but I’m just short. They do need to do a better job of food safety and covering food from flies. If I didn’t make it right at buffet opening, everything was covered in bugs! Also it wasn’t clear enough that this was a no alcohol resort when booking (I don’t drink that much anyways) and I understand it’s Ramadan but other resorts still had activities and entertainment, this one...

Clean, comfortable room, friendly staff, great pool, and perfect air conditioning overall, a wonderful stay!

The property is a 5star , and it’s reflected in the cleanliness, their use of green energy and their top notch rooms, . Their breakfast is byfair the best in hotels im Zanzibar. The staff know what to do and politely take good care of the guest. I would definitely book there again.

Clean

Amazing hotel and staff! My every need was met and there was always a staff member close by who was willing to help. We arrived early and our rooms were not ready, they took our bags from us and allowed us to get ready in the change rooms. We went to our excursion and came back to find our luggage in our rooms! They even offered late check out for us! Ahmed is the best bartender ever! Made the best drinks and always had a smile on his face! Too many amazing staff to call out. I will miss Lux...

Beautiful new resort. Very spacious. Many pool areas and lounge areas. Great friendly staff /service. Feels 5 star. Great food at the buffet and restaurants. But hard to book restaurants. We only were able to book one dinner out of 5 nights. Always booked up.
