“Missed the mark.”
+This place was ok. The welcome drinks were nice, but this is a 2-3 star hotel in North America, respectfully. I don’t like writing negative reviews.
−Unfortunately this stay really missed the mark. After staying at Pongwe, we had great expectations, but this missed. Dinner was usually cold food. Rooms are like standard hotel rooms, staff was on the low end compared to other staff we stayed with, stray cat roaming around during dinner, room had a strange smell as well. Food was below average, rooms weren’t that nice, pool deck is nice and beach is decent, but it’s just not the place it should be for the cost of what it is.

“We were very happy with the trip, although it was a bit uncomfortable due to the local beach vendors”
+A wonderful location, away from the village and other noisy areas. The ocean is stunning; we enjoyed it despite the tides, as we had the chance to both walk along the ocean floor and swim during high tide. The pool is also great,we loved relaxing there during low tide. Excellent drinks at the poolside bar. Welcoming, polite, and friendly staff.
−I wasn't happy with the cleanliness and condition of the towels and bed linen; they were sometimes stained or quite worn. The room was rather noisy due to the sound of the surf, though that wasn't a major issue since that’s exactly what we came for. I would have liked a bit more variety in the food served for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

+Estancia cómoda con todo lo necesario para disfrutar de unas vacaciones tranquilas. Las dos piscinas junto a la playa y muy cerca de las habitaciones lo hace especial por la comodidad. El personal muy predispuesto a ayudar, muy educados y cercanos.
−El precio del traslado del aeropuerto al hotel y la falta de agua caliente en la habitación (en nada lo solucionaron proporcionándonos otra habitación)

+La struttura è in una posizione fantastica, lontana dai resort con musica alta e spiagge piene di turisti. Oltre alle due piscine grandi c’è un ingresso privato sulla spiaggia di fronte che con il fenomeno delle maree offre un paesaggio inspiegabile (la struttura oltretutto offre il noleggio delle scarpette per camminare per la presenza dei ricci lungo gran parte degli scogli) dove godersi veramente la natura ed il mare in tutto il suo splendore.
−Il problema della mancanza di corrente elettrica a Zanzibar è risaputo e non è sicuramente una mancanza da parte della struttura, ma sistematicamente dopo le 18:30 dopo l’entrata in funzione del generatore di emergenza, almeno nella mia stanza, è stato impossibile farsi una doccia con acqua calda. La cosa è stata segnalata due volte, è intervenuta l’assistenza altrettante volte ma la cosa non è stata risolta. Inoltre, un giorno ho lasciato colpevolmente le cuffie in palestra e la geolocalizzazione le faceva vedere in un villaggio nell’entroterra dell’isola, che a detta della reception, era la zona dove abitava un membro dello staff, ragion cui le cuffie sono state trovate e non sono state consegnate alla reception. A quel punto mi è stato proposto di andare in quella zona con lo staff per recuperarle, operazione abbastanza folle considerando la non conoscenza della zona e delle persone che la abitano. È triste pensare che episodi del genere siano capitati in un resort della caratura del nungwui dream, un peccato.
