Reviews 2045+ From Tripadvisor
3 night stay in stone town post safari Tembo house is right in the heart of stone town. It was a decent standard, good value for its location and a cultural gem. A slight hiccup, on arrival (we had booked 2 rooms for the family & one room was booked for not enough nights by the hotel) it was quickly rectified. Great breakfast options & incredibly convenient for wandering around the buzzing town itself. Lovely pools over looking the beach & sea.
Amazing Place! A stay we'll always remember! We stayed here for two days and had a wonderful experience. Although our daughter was not feeling well during our stay, the care and kindness shown by the staff made all the difference. A special thank you to Thabit Ukasha at reception for his support and professionalism, and to Farida from housekeeping for her genuine care and attention. Your compassion and dedication truly made our stay memorable.
Good location and service. Very well located with a lovely terrace with a pool and a sea view. The room was a bit small but had air conditioning and everything necessary. Good breakfast on the beach, very nice and delicious dinner as well. Good location in the historic center.
