La ubicacion es espectacular. La casa es fantastica, muy amplia, comoda. La piscina muy bien, el chico la limpiaba todos los dias

− Nada todo perfecto. Se podria mejorar la cocina pero no la utilizamos mucho por lo que no nos ha molestado

Stay here! Hakuna Matata

What an amazing stay we had! When we arrived we had an exceptional greeting from Calister and her team! There was beautiful fresh fruit and bottled water waiting. The villa is absolutely beautiful and in a stunning location a few steps from the beach! The sea is so warm!! Beautiful swimming pool! We felt very safe here with our 24hr security, Samuel one of the security staff was lovely and friendly and would always give us a warm welcome, the dog that accompanied him “Black” was also very lovely, wary at first but nothing a few leftovers made him realise we were friends, and accompanied us on many walks along the beach. If you are not dog people don’t interact with him and he will leave you alone, but he is lovely! The cleaners, always asked before entering the villa if we needed it cleaned, Marryan (not sure if correct spelling) made some swans and flowers on the beds, very nice touch! We also spent a few hours one evening when we invited her to join our family for some drinks and snacks and comparing out cultures, a very memorable evening. The chap that cleaned the pool was also very friendly greeting us with a smile and a “Jambo” in the morning before he started work. Calister answered any questions we had and we could arrange a driver directly with her, she is an excellent manager, very personable and smiley. The driver we had was called Juma, his English was limited just like my Swahili but google translate was on hand! Such a lovely man,nothing was too much trouble! ask for him if you visit. He would also recommend places to visit and we found that, if you just hire him to drive and take you to attractions it worked out a lot cheaper than getting tickets etc from tour operators, just pay on the door so to speak. We have travelled to a fair few places, but this villa and Zanzibar has captured our hearts, we will definitely be back!! Thank you Calister and her team. Chris

− Yes the bathrooms could do with some shower heads being changed, taps tightened, things like that. There is a number of quirks around the property that as I’m a tradesman in England I pick up on and it’s far from our finished standards. Zanzibar electric is not very reliable, and the generator the villa has stopped working occasionally, being from England we are not very good at sleeping in 30 degree heat so not having aircon for a few hours took its toll, especially when the next day we had 20 odd hours of travelling. This only happened once or twice just happened to be at the worst on our last night, and literally for a few hours, but the generator needs to be bigger and way more reliable. Could do with some umbrellas for the loungers. Some of the window screens could do with some maintenance. Take power banks. As you can see from the pictures you have an unspoilt view of the beautiful beach through the glass panels, but please remember this is not a private beach so if seclusion is top of your list it may not be correct for you, however we loved interacting with the locals. Don’t let any of this detract you from visiting though, you won’t regret it.

Magnifique, incroyable, dépaysant

What I loved: Location: The villa's beachfront location is incredible. Waking up to the sunrise over the Indian Ocean from the balcony was a highlight every day. The pristine white sand and turquoise water are literally steps away. The Villa Itself: The villa is spacious, beautifully decorated, and impeccably clean. The bedrooms were very comfortable, and it was so relaxing to have a private pool to cool off in. The views from the various verandas are simply breathtaking. The Staff/Service: The staff were what truly made our experience exceptional. Thank you very much, CALISTER, you are GREAT!. The Atmosphere: The villa offers the perfect blend of privacy and tranquility. It's an ideal place to unwind and recharge, away from the crowds. We felt completely safe and secure thanks to the 24-hour security.
