“Great place to rest and relax in an amazing environment.”
+The hideaway house is perched on a hillside with amazing views over a quiet and secluded beach. The house is built with a terrace overlooking this amazing vista. The amenities at the house are very good and all you need to self cater or not. Love the outdoor bathroom. The activities list is all you need for a long weekend. Whether it is padel, pickel ball, kyaking, fishing or swimming.
−Water supply was a little intermittent and no hot water in the outdoor shower. Our internet went down but was up and running the next day. Shame the cement factory is allowed to dig up the area around the approach road as it will have long term effects on the area and could even restrict access!

+The view, the staff, the privacy of house. But the staff were phenomenal.
−One issue we had was the pool. Some other guests had a couple of very large inflatables which took up a large portion of the pool. It made it impossible for others to swim in the pool.

“THE OVERHUNG WASN'T FOR US”
+We had a 'room tent' right by the Indian ocean and our view was spectacular. We slept like babies with the sound of waves sending us to sleep. The room was clean and the staff were always happy to help.
−We felt trapped because there is only one choice of restaurant with everything being over priced compared to many other hotels in Tanzania. Most of Tanzanian food were missing on the menu as well. The drinks were over priced too, local beers are usually the cheapest in Tanzania sold between 2,500-8000 Tshs but The overhung price was 10,800 Tshs with everything else sold way above that price and the unfortunate thing was that there is absolutely nothing around the hotel, there are no shops or supermarkets to buy anything. The hotel is all by itself in the middle of the woods near wildlife. There was no any entertainment or laundry services. I didn't have any kids with me but I didn't see anything for the children for those with families and getting there was a nightmare as it rained and the roads were horrible. We had to check out before our due date to another hotel. The manager Thomas was kind enough to arrange a refund for 1 night. We lost 1 night but it's ok as we couldn't stay for any more nights. Unfortunately this place was not for us....😥

+This place is worth every penny! We enjoyed every moment, and it felt like we were on a private island. We really appreciated all the effort Mr. Thomas, the manager, put in to make sure our stay was perfect! And Phoebe, responsible for guest experience, for planning and making sure everything went smoothly and comfortably for us. Highly recommended for people who care about quality in every aspect. And dont want to forget to thank David the driver for being very keen to take us everywhere. And vinoth the F&B manager for taking care of the food quality!
