Utulivu House

This may be different but I really felt like home.
The hotel is amazing with few meters from beach
Very clean and imagine getting service desk by the owner so you can imagine how warm is the service and how helpfull.
The staff are super friendly and you feel very conformable while asking them any queries either about the hotel or the surrounding.
I know that security is a concern in zanzibar but in here you feel very secured and everybody is safe.
There is a breakfast at hotel and for the remaining meals you can choose from the hotel itself or there are restuarent on both beach side or the main road.
Don't be shy to ask anything from the locals or from the owners of the hotel.
Ps :all these notes are for family I was traveling with my wife and two kids so you can imagine how good it can be.

Abbiamo prolungato la vacanza perché qui si sta’ molto molto bene, accogliente, viva, dinamica, molto verde e quindi rilassante allo stesso tempo, poi c’è anche la scimmietta di nome “Bella” che è simpaticissima di fa’ sempre accarezzare.
Simone e la sua compagna sono sempre presenti nella casa,
sempre super disponibili nell’ aiutarti
Consiglio assolutamente la vacanza qui.

The staff were very friendly and nice
The owner unfortunately is not friendly at all and when i submitted the below review in booking.com he whatsapped me and called me. “ stupid people”

Unfortunately the stay was bot very pleasant as the description in the website doesnt meet the reality.

The AC was not working properly and most of the times it wasn’t working at all.

I complained several times to the owners regarding this problem “ seeing other rooms dont have the same problem” but unfortunately no action was taken.

We were charges for a 3 star hotel 2600 aed. 712 $ overpriced for such accommodation.

The rooms were not cleaned and sheets and towels were not changed daily.

I don’t recommend this hotel it is such a joy killers

Just loved the atmosphere and very close to Paje beach. Owners and staff was very helpful. Spent one day only on premises, and was happy over all. Would stay again if I were to come to Paje again! Fatuma house has breakfast, pool area and gaurd at night.

i wrote a review on booking the owner even reacted and was even offending me like i, the one who is stupid realy crazy guy here the copy of my text and review

+ there is a swimming pool ,and a few sunbeds, , if its not reserved for the owner himself,
airconditioning works fine

- the bathroom is small no separation from toilet and shower , the lights in the room are so white like in the hospital (its personal taste) , seaview is a joke, and the private beach aswell

his reaction /
Your review makes me smile!!! 22 sun loungers next to the pool. Maybe you haven't seen them??? Sea view room??? The sea is 50 meters away! Maybe you haven't seen it ??? Private beach 50 meters from the room with 12 private sunbeds. Maybe you suffered from the heat. Africa is not your ideal country. Good luck

I noticed this guy is writing on every negativ feedback personaly; and yes there are more, and btw i didnt speak about 22 sunbeds (where 2 of theme at the best location are reserved for himself to lay down during the whole day) ,
The sea could be 50 meters away , but behind a building? if you cant see the sea its not seaview...! smart guy ;) and last but not least private beach there where 5 dirty sunbeds at a poor restaurant reserved for the hotel, no sunn umbrellas available congratulations!
p.s. Thanks for making me laugh (suffered from the heat)
