A continental breakfast is available daily at the lodge. The breakfast was thoughtful, hearty and excellent. Ahmed is an absolute natural at hospitality and you can see its his sincerest intention to make one feel genuinely comfortable and welcome in the space you share with his family. We were delighted how pleasant the stay was after spending the first 5 nights of our time in Zanzibar at the very pricey Sandys Baobab
