Guest reviews for Michamvi Sunset Bay

5 out of 5

Super schönes sehr ruhiges Hotel mit viel Charme

Pros: Die Ruhe, super gepflegt und sehr nettes Personal. Auch die Leute an der Rezeption sind einfach sehr hilfsbereit und sehr kompetent! KLEIN ABER OHO!
Cons: Ja das Essen ist etwas langweilig könnte verbessert werden. Schön wäre es mehr im Restaurant am Meer zu Essen weil da das Ambiente am schönsten ist
Location: Weit ab von allem eher einsam aber sehr ruhig und gepflegt für Erholungssuchende genau das richtige! Das Restaurant "The Rock" ca. 4 KM entfernt!
Wir waren noch nie in einem so ruhigen Hotel es war zum ausspannen genau das richtige. Man sollte aber bedenken, das es weit und breit nicht wirklich viele Möglichkeiten gibt zu Essen oder aus zu gehen. Für Partyleute nicht geeignet. Zu empfehlen Halbpension dazu zu buchen auch nicht perfekt aber sehr herzliches Personal da gute Restaurants Mangelware sind, sind leider alle viel zu weit weg. Die Drinks an der Bar sind auch sehr gut und Wein gibt es den Hauswein von Südafrika (Weiss, Rose, Rot und Prosecco für $15.00 also auch bezahlbar und gut! Natürlich auch noch andere auf der Karte. Es gibt diverse kleine Bars rechts und links des Hotels die auch Snacks und gute Drinks anbieten. Nachts aber schwer erreichbar sind da Ebbe und Flut aussergewöhnlich in Zansibar! Das Frühstück sehr einfach aber alles vorhanden (leider nur 1 Käsesorte) die Früchte sind natürlich das Highlight ...... immer super frisch und einfach nur SUPER!!!!! Zu empfehlen ist das Restaurant "The Rock" ca. 4 Kilometer entfernt, man muss aber unbedingt reservieren immer ausgebucht. Vom Hotel aus auch zu Fuss erreichbar aber 2 Stunden muss man laufen und das am Strand entlang bei Hitze unmöglich besser am Abend mit dem Taxi. Wir können das Hotel für Ruhesuchende zu 100 Prozent weiterempfehlen.
