I fell in love, not just with the place, but with the care. The team is friendly, present, kind, professional, and ready for anything. Muhamed and William are real-life wish-granters, as any idea I had, they were already bringing it to life. Mornings began with breakfasts so good, the chef made me want to live a little deeper. Everything is new, clean, thoughtfully beautiful. The pool was amazing, and the Wi-Fi was impressively fast. The best coffee in the region, and incredible cookies! Unexpectedly a lot of cool memories happened there. But the real magic is the people I met. Some of them became future friends, and I’m already dreaming of when our paths will cross again!

The place, the view, the pool, the beach, the food, the staff, the guests… everything was better than what I expected. Perfect stay for solo travelers to meet other people. if you plan to visit jambiani and nungwi, make sure your stay in Jambiani is longer because you won’t find the same vibes in the north

Very basic backpackers hostel, but you have everything you need, good vibes included. The manager is excellent, always helpful for anything (information, excursions, etc.). Breakfast is super!
Amazing location. Stayed in the women's dorm. Felt more like a summer camp bunk than a hostel. Was very clean and wifi worked. Felt safe the entire time I was here. If you're a budget travel it is one of the better hostels I have been to.
Excellent breakfast..great location and beautiful chill out zones. The dorms come equipped with a lockable safe and usb and normal and also EU plug sockets which is a nice touch. The staff were incredible especially madeleine who went out of her way to make sure I am happy. Modern feel to the hostel and relaxing vibes.
Great location. Nice roof terrace (if you can be bothered to climb 7 flights of stairs). Cheap drinking water. Friendly, helpful staff. Comfy bed with mosquito nets. Felt safe at night. Quiet location.
