Neat space
I stated at the Villa for three nights. The hotel staff were all helpful, especially Gibson. Although the weather was not favorable for my anticipated outdoor activities, I enjoyed staying in my room because it was clean. I really hope the property can keep this up over time.

We tok a chance at staying at Antares Villa as it’s new, but after only good reviews from others we felt confident it couldn’t be that bad. It is a nicely designed hotel and the pictures definitely don’t lie, but they do have a lot to learn, naturally. Our room still had trash under bed and behind nightstands from previous guests, no duvets only linen that wasn’t changet during our stay (3 nughts)

Everything was fantastic. We felt very welcomed, even though we arrived in the middle of the night. Room was very spacious and looked exactly like in the pictures. Restaurant at the beach was nice and the food was great. Breakfast was very filling. Everyone was so helpfull at all times. What ever we needed we were taken care of. Thank you Gibson <3

Fräsct nybyggt hotell
Fint nybyggt hotell, väldigt fräscht och elegant. Fin pool. Mycket hjälpsam personal, speciellt Yousu. Elegant serverad frukost. Mycket bra restaurang intill, i Kiwengwa resort.3 minuter till privata stranden med gratis stolar. Tyvärr är stranden i Kiwengwa mycket beroende av tidvattnet. Bättre stränder på västra Zanzibar.
