The hotel is clearly worn out and in need of renovation. The access to the sea from the suites has been closed for quite a while, which is one of the advertised benefits for staying in private villas. The jacuzzi was set at 42 degrees Celsius which made it impossible to use. Because the program was locked I wasn’t able to change it and I never got a staff member to change it. I do not recommend the manicure and pedicure as the quality of product is poorly and staff do not have the knowledge nor the adequate training to do it. Not worth the price. However the resort staff and butler are absolutely fantastic! They are always eager to help and satisfy everyone’s needs! The food is excellent too! Thanks to the staff members I had an excellent stay! Special thanks to Ramso my butler and Yunis the assistant manager of the resort for giving a VIP treat at all times!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay for our honeymoon at the Fruit & Spice in Zanzibar. The staff was friendly and helpful. We learned and practiced some basics of the Swahili language thanks to them. We also learned a lot about the culture of the island through our interaction with the staff. The location is great with a nice view of the ocean especially during sunset. The room was specious, comfortable and well maintained, and we really liked the menu for breakfast and dinner, with a good variety of options. We really liked the fact that there is a Maasai village nearby where guests have an opportunity to meet Maasai warriors and ask them about their culture daily. That was very unique experience and we enjoyed every second of our interaction with the Maasai. Although the resort is remote with very few shops around, we felt like we had most of what we needed within the hotel. The access to the beach to swim or for peaceful walks by the water is very convenient and we really enjoyed those. The hotel is beautifully decorated with stylish local themes, with well maintained landscaping and abundant and vibrant nature around. If you like photography, this is paradise. We also felt very safe. I highly recommend the resort. We had a great stay and will definitely stay there again.
