"This villa hotel is very beautiful and clean. The view of the ocean is lovely. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Got great and fresh fruits from the trees with breakfast. The hotel offers nice tours, transportation, lunch and dinner for a great price. I and my family loved and enjoyed it."
"This is a beautiful property with unique, rustic design situated in the middle of the village, definitely off the beaten path! The suite we stayed in on the 4th floor had a beautiful view of the ocean and surrounding greenery. The property was well maintained and the staff was amazingly accommodating. We were very comfortable and felt quite safe. Food at the restaurant was fresh and delicious. The pool is absolutely beautiful. The only drawback is that the property is not beachfront, and...
"Expérience catastrophique – cambriolage en plein jour et personnel complice ?
Nous avons séjourné une semaine dans cet appart'hôtel. Tout allait bien jusqu’au dernier jour. Ayant un vol tardif (22h35), nous avons demandé à garder la chambre un peu plus longtemps, ce que le personnel a accepté. Nous sommes allés bronzer à quelques mètres de l'appartement et, à notre retour, nous avons constaté un cambriolage : valise fouillée, baie vitrée ouverte (jamais utilisée), argent liquide, papiers...
"The hostess was very accommodating and really wonderful. She made sure everything was taken care of, and truly was pride of ownership. Wonderful oceanfront property with a small swimming pool. I hope to return again in the future."
"We stayed at Simba for 4 days and our time there was so great. The staff were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The restaurant food was absolutely delicious (we ate breakfast there every morning and dinner there every night). The pool was well used by my three kiddos and the lounge chairs were a nice touch next to the pool.
We would definitely stay here again!

"This is a lovely hotel in a historic building. It’s walking distance to all the sights of Stonetown. Our room was clean and comfortable. The balcony looked out to the Indian Ocean. Staff were very helpful and friendly, particularly the receptionist who helped us with booking our transfer to the airport at the end of our stay. "
"Maru Maru Hotel staff were very kind and willing to help. The location of this hotel is beyond convenient; a great location if you decide the stone town tour and prison island tour.
I absolutely love that you can turn on heat for your water. I only have positive things to say about my stay here. The restaurant on the rooftop was also amazing; a great selection of food and cocktails. The venue itself was gorgeous- it has a very safe and reassuring feeling."
"A arrived 9h30 and didn’t have to wait till 15 o’clock to go to my room. They not only gave the room earlier but gave an upgrade. Very friendly staff "
"The staff 100% make this place, so friendly, so helpful and generally infectious. We cant thank everyone enough for making our honeymoon so special and taking care of us throughout our stay "
Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa
10/10 Excellent
"This resort is the closest I've been to a natural paradise. My stay was incredible in every possible way. The Isaraya overwater bungalows are beautifully decorated and you feel like you're living in your own personal paradise looking out onto the ocean, your private pool, and the fishermen who pass by. The food was amazing with lots of different choices of local dishes including fresh fish and fruits daily. The best part of all was the staff. They were so helpful, especially when you try to speak a few words in swahili, and will do all they can to serve you, even dinner on the beach, on request. Beatrice, the hospitality manager, was absolutely incredible and the kindness of the whole team will make your trip exceptional. It is very quiet there, day and night, which is what I was seeking, but no night life except a couple of evenings where there was music, so if you're wanting fun, I'd go elsewhere or you'll need to book a taxi every day. It is about 90 minutes from Stone Town or the spice farm, so most visits will be a full day trip due to the roads. Some people complain about the Maasai, but they guard the property. They made me feel safe, and they are lovely to chat to. Of course they'll try to sell you something, but just be polite, laugh with them, and negotiate, you'll be so glad you did because it'll add to your memories. I personally had an unforgettable stay and I can't wait to go back."
"Stunning private beach
Don't leave cash around, We left cash by the bedside table they came to turn the bed at night whilst we went for dinner and the cash was gone. "
"Bloody amazing place to chill and relax. Beautiful stretch of beach. Amazing and professional MANAGER & ALL OF HIS STAFF. Excellent food and entertainment. "
