Castles in Tanzania

"This place is quite a palace. It’s luxurious and very comfortable. From the moment you walk in, it’s restful. Your big heavy bags are whisked to your room. A pot of hot dawa is ready for you at check-in. My room was clean, had a spot for my luggage, and a great big window. Quiet as well. Slept like a rock. The dinner/brunch buffets are nothing short of indulgent. I only wish I’d had more time to try the pool. Business center was quick and well appointed for printing documents. Only request I’d have is that I believe this hotel lists airport transfer on this site. This is inaccurate and should be updated."

"Only one chair in room. "

"This property is absolutely beautiful and we stayed one night before we left for a 5 day safari in Tanzania. It is about 4 miles from the Kilimanjaro airport which made it convenient. The drivers to this lodge were available at the airport and waiting outside once all airport clearances were completed. "

"The hospitality staff were great. Loved the 8th floor outdoor lounge / restaurant area. Very nice fitness center with good equipment."

"Great place to stay. "

"Fabulous stay. Beautiful, relaxing and quiet resort. Particularily enjoyed the kindness of all staff. Will probably be back."

"The staff was amazing I had a 2 week stay they always greeted me when I saw them treated me like family helped when i need and let me be myself I will miss my new found friends Baraka, Goodluck, Joseph, Anuary, and Aiku"

"The staff were super friendly. The food was amazing. Love the pool! 10 out of 10 highly recommend! "

"First off: ALL the staff are incrediblly helpful, friendly, polite and attentive, including reception, restaurant waiters and food servers, pool staff and entertainment, cleaners, gardeners, management and even the guy in the Suntours office. Food and drink: Breakfasts, coffee and breakfast all very good and varied - easily have a different style breakfast every day. Main pool handily sited next to main ginger bar with wide range of alcoholic /non-alcoholic cocktails, beer, wine. Informal swim up option or drinks brought to lounger, as you prefer. Loved the option for afternoon tea /coffee with cakes or sandwiches, in the shade. We loved the buffet lunches and dinners, with choice of where to sit (sun/ cool/ shade/ breeze etc, depending on daily whim) and the ongoing jackdaws vs. bamboo sticks entertainment. The "happy birthday" waiting staff harmonies were great. Loved the cool dude on electric piano with his reggae/ zydeco / blues fusion vibes in the main restaurant in the evenings. We managed 3 trips to the Krystal fusion restaurant (excellent, our fave) and one to the steak. The evening entertainment was very good, although we preferred the bands and musicians to the rap/breakdancing. But very varied and aomething for everyone. They even ran the odd game of bingo. The beach, the sea and the views were just wonderful. The beach sellers were not overly intrusive and actually quite friendly. Very easy to get a kayak or paddleboard, etc."
