Nossa hospedagem no Le Mersenne foi espetacular! A começar pelo horário em que chegamos: 4 AM e fomos recebidos não apenas com cordialidade, masacima de tudo com muito carinho pela funcionária da recepção que foi breve nas explanações sobre o hotel, atenta ao nosso cansaço. Chegando no quarto, tuo estava impecável. Ar condicionado ligado e frigobar abastecido. Os quartos são muito bem decorados e com estrutura completa: cama king, 2 cubas, banheira, cafeteira, chaleira, amenities de primeiríssima qualidade, roupas de cama macias, excelentes travesseiros, excelente chuveiro, sacada, armário espaçoso, bancada de trabalho e uma varanda deliciosa. Além disso, o atendimento é impecável. Funcionários simpáticos, dedicados, sempre atentos, rápidos, dispostos ajudar e adoram conversar. Destaque para o chef indiano do restaurante La Mer, que no café da manhã veio até nossa mesa saber se estava tudo bem e se precisávamos de mais alguma coisa, e comentei que eu gostava muito de ovos mexidos com queijo de cabra (item este que não tinha no café). Ele não só trouxe o queijo para acompanhar meus ovos mexidos, como trouxe uma peça enorme de queijo de cabra em uma embalagem para eu levar para aperitivar no quarto. So Lovely! Comida excelente! Boa carta de vinhos! Room service muito rápido. Limpeza impecável. Ambientes estilosos. A água do frigobar é cortesia e deixam em grande quantidade, o que é uma raridade em hotéis. Ganharam mil pontos comigo neste sentido! O gerente do hotel, Michael é um gentleman. Comentei que eu era agente de viagens e ele prontamente nos levou para conhecer os bangalos over water e também me ajudou a pontuar a estadia no programa de fidelidade da rede. A piscina de borda infinita para o mar é um deleite. À noite tem dj no bar e jantares maravilhosos no rooftop com preços mais maravilhosos ainda. Comemos um camarão gigante (que mais parecia uma lagosta) com buffet de salada e acompanhamentos por USD 10. O café da manhã é de cinema, com opções para todos os gostos e estilos alimentares. Um resort enxuto, lindo e funcional. O único ponto negativo é que não possui faixa de areia. Mas Zanzibar é para passear, o que não interferiu em nada na qualidade de nossa hospedagem. Voltaria mil vezes! Nota 11 !!!!

I am writing this review whilst still in the resort and I have to say for what we paid for a family of 4, we have had/having a great time. The hotel albeit not very old has rustic charm given the materials they use and their determination to recycle, however even though the hotel is only 5-years old they are now renovating the balconies around the main pool, which can be sometimes annoying due to drilling. The staff here, in my opinion are extremely friendly and Jambo ”Hello” is the word you will always hear. Reception: We arrived in the resort at about 9am but couldn't get into our rooms until 2pm, which after 20-hours of travel is a pain and it appears that many guests arrive early so perhaps the hotel should think about revising their check in times? Rooms: The rooms are lovely, rustic and minimalist but comfy. They are cleaned very day and you can have your bed/towels changed as often as you like, you just need to make it known. There is a mosquito net over the bed, which the maids let down every night, whilst also spraying the room. We have been bit several times by mosquitoes so make sure you take plenty of sprays. Pools: We only sat round the Zanzibar Bay main pool, which was very nice. It has a bar that opens from 10am through until 7pm serving soft drinks and alcohol. The beer is nice and poured out of bottles so l imagine not watered down and the spirit measures are plentiful. The sun beds are a little uncomfortable but you get used to them. Look out for the resident monkey who is great entertainment and a great photo opportunity. Bars: As well as the pool bar around the Zanzibar Bay pool, there is also one around the Paradise Beach hotel side (guests can use either). There is the Coconut Bar, which closes at 11pm and a lot of guests drink in this bar in the evening. A special mention to Masoud who is a brilliant bar tender and so friendly. Restaurants: There are 3 restaurants, main buffet, which is ok but like all main buffets can get a bit repetitive. Breakfasts in my opinion are limited but you can always find something to eat. The Indian and Asian restaurants were great and have to be booked in the morning but are very tasty and well worth several visits. Trips: We spent days out on trips, Nmemba Island, which was snorkelling, dolphin spotting and sand bank, we also did a 3-stop trip, which was Spice Farm, Prison Island and Stone Town, which was a full day and dragged on a bit but was still interesting and finally we did another boat trip, which consisted of seeing the Rock restaurant, snorkelling in the blue lagoon, star fish and relaxing on Mangrove Island, which was excellent value for money. Weather: We stayed from 5th July for 2-weeks and the weather has been mixed, sun, cloud, rain but I think it's the norm for this island and definitely unpredictable but it was around 30 degrees each day and warm enough at night for t-shirt and shorts. Summary: I think because of the distance and the fact there are only so many things to do

The hotel is very comfortable and it is very good to get a little more than the previous opinion, but I find the note too hard ... The swimming pool would deserve some more maintenance, that's true. The restaurant is very long, but it's a constant in Zanzibar. The meat is coriace ... But the frame is beautiful. And above all, the staff is really nice and deserves a 4/5
