Bien mais sans plus
Séjour de 4 nuits. Points positifs: Très bon restaurant au tarif raisonnable Jolie piscine Joli décoration Staf local agréable Navette pour la plage principale Points negatifs Plage impraticable de janvier à mars sans être informé avant Terrasse servant aussi d’entrepôt aux femmes de ménages Deux problèmes (résolus) de plomberie en 4 jours Management pas tres professionnel (se préoccupe pas trop de l’avis des clients).

hotel trop isolé, plage impraticable
J’ai séjourné dans cet hotel 4 nuits. L’hôtel de prime abord est plutot charmant avec des bungalows separés en 2 sur un petit parc de verdure. Le premier point faible de cet hotel est sa plage qui est catastrophique. Au vu des plages paradisiaques qui entourent l’ile de zanzibar c’est bien dommage. Le deuxième point faible est son confinement qui est vraiment loin de tout et vous laisse a la merci de la restauration de l’hôtel qui est vraiment pas exceptionnelle avec un choix assez limité et qui plus est sans plat locaux. Je passe sur le service a table qui est tres long et souvent proche de l’heure d’attente. C’est egalement bien dommage. Nous sommes reparti de cet hotel comme nous arrivés : sans meme qu’un membre du staff nous propose la moindre aide pour nos valises, ce qu’on attend d’un hotel 4*. Autre belle surprise : nous nous sommes vu appliquer 4% de plus sur notre facture finale car payé en carte (On me l’aurait dit au check in j’aurais prevu du cash). Enfin bref, expérience plutot proche de la moyenne sans plus que je ne recommande évidemment a personne.

Le Marafiki est constitué de bungalows situé sur un site arboré bien entretenu mais totalement enclavé. La piscine est la pièce maîtresse. Si vous souhaitez autre chose que le. bronzing/massage/ lecture .... des activités nautiques, de la plongée..Il va falloir ouvrir le porte feuille et passer par l'hôtel. La plage en outre bas est toute petite avec flux et reflux d'algues noires. Une longue marche à pieds vous permettra de rejoindre la route côtière et voir quelques commerces locaux. Aucun site culturel aux alentours. Pensez à faire venir un taxi commandé par vos soins . Trajet vers stone town autour de 30$. Si l'hôtel vous le commande il vous en coûtera 49$ ( Déc 2019) Bon séjour
