Ottima struttura per visitare e godersi la costa est di Zanzibar. Camere essenziali ma confortevoli, pulite e moderne. Staff super, Roberta e i colleghi ti fanno sentire davvero a casa. Il ristorante davvero ottimo sia per le colazioni sia per i pasti. Per chi cerca un’oasi di pace diversa dai classici resort (per vivere l’atmosfera di Zanzibar in modo più autentico) e della buona ospitalità (e cucina) italiana sicuramente è il posto giusto! Super consigliato!

Miglior posto non potevamo scegliere! Abbiamo soggiornato, io e mio marito, una decina di giorni a La Base durante il periodo natalizio e se è stata una vacanza stupenda lo dobbiamo molto anche a loro. Le camere sono molto belle, pulite con letti grandi, bagno con tutti i comfort tra cui bidet, climatizzatore. Il contesto in cui si trovano è molto rilassante e tranquillo, la spiaggia si raggiunge in 2 minuti di camminata dal b&b. In spiaggia si può godere di lettini, ombrelloni e tutti i comfort e servizi del ristorante con bellissima terrazza e vista mare. Il team di ragazzi è stato eccezionale, ci ha fatto subito sentire come se fossimo a casa, in vacanza, ma comunque in un contesto familiare e amichevole, sempre a disposizione per qualsiasi cosa e per fare due chiacchiere. La nostra compagnia aerea ci ha smarrito i bagagli e lo staff de La Base ci ha aiutato tantissimo mettendosi in contatto diretto con l'ufficio aeroportuale e facendoci trovare le nostre valigie direttamente in camera, numeri uno. Raccomandiamo La Base perchè è un ottimo posto per soggiornare a Zanzibar, tattico anche per le varie escursioni dell'isola e soprattutto per viversi una vacanza senza pensieri. Se un giorno torneremo a Zanzibar sicuramente torneremo qui perchè si torna sempre dove si è stati bene. Grazie ancora!

Súper recomendable

Las habitaciones son muy grandes con una terraza súper bonita que da a un jardín muy cuidado. El baño es muy grande y los productos para la ducha son de muy buena calidad. La cama muy cómoda. Todo es nuevo y de alta calidad. Te dan toallas de playa. Tienen un restaurante en la playa y servicio de tumbonas gratuitas incluidas en el alojamiento, es muy cómodo, puedes dejar tu pertenencias en la tumbona en total seguridad y tomar el sol o comer sin que lo miles de beach boys que atiborran la playa te molesten. El personal es súper amable te hacen sentir como en casa en todo momento. Por lo que vimos en kiwenga es sin lugar a duda el mejor hotel donde hospedarse. Volvería sin duda

Perfekt!

Es sieht genauso aus wie auf den Bildern! Ganz wunderbare moderne, kleine, ruhige Anlage. Das Frühstück am Strand war sehr lecker. Es gab immer eine Obstplatte und zusätzlich die Wahl zwischen einem salzigen oder süßen Frühstück. Der Strand ist wunderschön! Vielen Dank für alles Maria!
