"Excellent cozy boutique beach hotel recommended by friend, and we didn't regret following her advise! Clean, nice bathroom, good terrace, great personnel, beautiful location. Great choice of restarants nearby. Will go back one day hopefully soon. "

"今年、ヘカヤに滞在するのは今回で2回目でした。ジャクリーンは私たちを温かく迎えてくれ、17日間の滞在中ずっと素晴らしいおもてなしをしてくれました。彼女の誠実で飾らない人柄のおかげで、まるでヘカヤファミリーの一員になったような気持ちになりました。庭師のジョンやプール係のミスター・プールマン（笑）をはじめ、スタッフ全員にも心から感謝申し上げます。特に、ウニの事故の後、何百個ものパパイヤを届けてくれたことには感激しました（笑）。どうか今のままのあなたでいてください。本当に素晴らしいチームです。またお会いしましょう！"

"ホテル・マトライでの滞在は素晴らしい体験でした。スタッフは私がこれまで出会った中でも最高の人たちばかりでした。オーナーのインゲさんは本当に素敵な女性で、まるで家族のように温かく迎えてくれました。マネージャーのイエメンさんをはじめとするスタッフの皆さんは、ザンジバルの誇りです。食事と飲み物は、私がこれまで訪れた中で最高のレストランに匹敵するほど美味しかったです。正直に言って、ここは期待をはるかに超えるホテルです。客室と敷地は完璧に整備されており、私が世界中で宿泊したホテルの中でもトップ3に入るほど素晴らしいものでした。ぜひ写真と書籍をご覧ください。欠点は一つもなく、すべての項目で星5つです。"

"美しいリゾート。おいしい料理。素晴らしいスタッフ。誰もがとてもフレンドリーで、仕事が本当に上手です。スパは素晴らしかった。アニメーションチーム、特にジャクソンは素晴らしかった。残念ながら、リゾートはすべてから遠く離れているので、リゾートの外で何でもするには車を借りる必要があります。それが私が与える唯一のマイナスポイントです。"

"My husband and I visited on the last leg of our honeymoon, following 6 nights on safari in Kenya. We were sadly not overly impressed by our stay here. We were greeted by the manager, who was very friendly and receptive, and did his best throughout our stay to ensure we were happy. We had no complaints about the hotel itself, rooms were lovely, the hotel was clean, and a lovely white beach / ocean view. However, this hotel / location is just missing something. We were on a half board catering basis, and although the food was really delicious at Upendo, it was the same small menu & cuisine every day, and we very quickly got bored of the food / had everything that we fancied over the 6 days we stayed. The restaurant has a very relaxed vibe / not a very romantic setting - it's more of a day time beach bar, which is fine for lunch, but we expected somewhere more formal for evening meals. We felt this was generally the same in all eating places along the beach, and we really struggled to find somewhere to eat each day, particularly Valentines day. There were a few issues during our stay including building work going on right outside our room (at the place next door), palm trees bashing against our room throughout the night, sewage smell coming into our bathroom, and the hygiene of the staff who came to turn down our room each day. This is not a reflection of the hotel itself, but sadly meant that our experience on holiday here was not what we had in mind. The hotel manager did do his best to rectify some of the issues and we were grateful of that. Another thing to note, is we were not aware before about the crime / culture / safety on the island - upon arrival we were advised not to walk right along the beach, but even walking left, we were harassed by children looking for money / staring at our pockets and felt very uncomfortable. We did not feel at ease to leave the hotel despite the multiple day trips on offer, which was a shame. Overall, the food offerings and variety let this down for us, and lack of formal restaurant / no atmosphere."
