A true sanctuary in Stone Town
From the moment we stepped through the doors we felt at home. The rooms are beautiful, breakfast at Breadfruit was a highlight every morning, and the rooftop sundowners are unmissable.
★★★★★
Paradise discovered indeed
The attention to detail is remarkable — the arches, the linen, the coffee. The team arranged a private dhow cruise that was the best evening of our trip.
★★★★★
Effortless, elegant, unforgettable
The perfect base for exploring Stone Town. Walking distance to everything, yet completely peaceful. The curated minibar is a wonderful touch.
“Expect a slow relaxed pace of life, afternoon naps and walks along the shore, riding a bicycle along narrow winding streets of Stone Town.”The Neela Way
