“Atmospheric”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 29, 2012

Atmospheric ruins in a beautiful garden setting. Well worth an afternoon wandering through the ruins and garden, then down to the beach or the hotel deck restaurant that is located next door.

“Yoga with Jo”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 9, 2012

If you are looking for yoga classes - this is the place to go. Jo is a very friendly person who gave me a ride from Stone Town to the ruins where classes are held. The setting is stunning and the atmosphere amongst the class is really laid back! Highly recommend the experience.
