What Our Users Say About Popular Zanzibar Hotels

Good

us Dwight 28 October 2022
This hotel is pure luxury! From the exclusive amenities to the impeccable service, every detail was taken care of. the spa center had amazing treatments and the outdoor swimming pool was surrounded by a beautiful garden area. the entertainment was fantastic and the restaurant served delicious meals. the room advantages were noticeable with a private balcony that overlooked the turquoise water. We enjoyed a fantastic buffet breakfast every morning with a great selection of local produce. the bar/lounge area was perfect to unwind and enjoy a drink. We felt pampered and special throughout our stay.
The only minor issue we had was the offensive photographs in the bedroom. Nude pictures are not suitable for children and could be uncomfortable for some guests.

us Brian 29 November 2022
Spent my Christmas at a resort in Kendwa and got a couple of great perks like a free boat ride in the morning and a Christmas dinner. The location is also nice since it’s near the beach and shops, making it easy to find things to do. Plus, the room was clean and the staff, especially the barman, were really friendly.
The experience was marred by the loud music during the night parties which kept me awake. Also, the food at the hotel restaurant was quite expensive compared to other nearby places, and the pool area was always overcrowded during the day.

Very good

us Scott 28 December 2022
The first thing we loved was the complementary lime and ginger toiletries, they smelled heavenly and made us feel pampered. We also enjoyed the fact that the hotel was located directly on the beach, with easy access to the crystal-clear water. The beachside dining offered by the hotel was a great added bonus, perfect for a romantic dinner with the sound of the waves in the background. The staff were very friendly and provided excellent service.
The access road from the main road was quite bumpy and uncomfortable, which was the only downside to the location. Additionally, while there were a few restaurants and shops nearby, there wasn't much variety and options were limited.
