And so about the hotel! We arrived around 5 am. The airport sucks! Stuffiness, heat, lethargic and slow Africans.... Everything ran. Later we realized that this is such a local "African flavor". We were brought to the hotel around 7 am. Things were taken to the storage room (this is a separate room without a lock))))), sent us to breakfast. Check-in was at 11 o'clock. Now about breakfast)))))) It's funny even to write))))) For example: 3 slices of potatoes, such as french fries, a spoonful of beans, a slice of carrots, asparagus, zucchini - this is the main dish. Then: a thin slice of pineapple, papaya or mango; tea or coffee and buttered toast. We had breakfast)))))))) Ocheeeen poorly! By the way, the restaurant gives you a WiFi password every morning. Then we went to the beach to wait for the settlement. About the beach!!!! ! Perhaps this hotel has the most beautiful beach! The ocean is practically non-existent here. The tides are insignificant. But! The biggest low tides are on the full moon. Water leaves for 300 meters (when in other parts of the island it leaves for a kilometer for sure). There is a catastrophic shortage of sun loungers, so people take their places from 6 in the morning. There are towels. . At 11 o'clock we were given the key to the room. In principle, you can live in a room, if you do not notice the old and rusty plumbing, dirty and old towels and bed linen, and the lack of a TV. I want to say about the colorful Africans on the beach, who accompany everywhere and everywhere, even if you and your family want to take a walk without an escort))))) They are very annoying and annoying. It was very disturbing! I wanted to sit in the evening and watch the sunset, but no! They did not give rest for a minute! Farther.....Tours of the islands are completely useless! The purest and azure water is right here - at your feet. We went on excursions to different islands and spat, seeing ordinary water, like in any sea.....Another moment made me very angry: at every step, the Europeans are trying to cheat. Prices are awesome! We agreed with the local guide, who calls himself Gleb, that he would buy and cook shrimp for us, gave him money for 3 kg...... And what was our surprise when, instead of 3 kg, we saw on the table 3 shrimp per person (15 pieces), with a taste of sand on our teeth. For this culinary miracle, he demanded that we add another $5. In short, it's a common scam. I will say this about food: for the money they cooked deliciously in our hotel. We ordered pizza, various seafood dishes - everything is quite well prepared. We also went to the neighboring hotel "Essens" - there is European-level service and very tasty dishes. Prices are higher than in Sunset. Fruits are carried along the beach. But I’ll say right away: it’s not cheap (this is not Sri Lanka for you))))). We went to the village for fruit. You can drive into the city, but taxi prices bite. There is not much else to say about the hotel. The only attraction here is the beautiful ocean and the sand on the beach! Don't forget that before leaving you will have to pay a commission fee (don't spend all your dollars)))))). By the way, they brought home bought 3 shells and mangoes. For shells at the airport, they demanded a bribe of $ 20 (whispering in your ear))))). They missed the mango (we carried it in our luggage). As a result: I position the hotel itself as an ordinary threesome with sooooo meager breakfasts! But the beach is the bomb! You will understand this when you go to Nungwi and see the low tides (you can swim there only early in the morning or in the afternoon))))))
