I spent a night at Shaba Boutique Hotel before flying out of Zanzibar and it was perfect. I was able to check in a bit earlier and the room was stunning, the bed and all the decor felt true to Stone Town and the staff were so friendly and helpful in arranging transport to the airport as well. The breakfast was excellent in the morning. Location was great, during the night it can be intimidating walking the streets but it really isn't too far from the typical tourist spots. I would stay again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend.

I had an incredible stay at Kassandra Beach Hotel in Nungwi! The hotel offers stunning sea views that made my mornings magical. The rooms are clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated.The staff was warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist with a smile, making me feel right at home. The beachfront location is perfect for relaxing, with the pristine white sand and crystal-clear waters just a few steps away. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat in Zanzibar, Kassandra Beach Hotel is the place to be!

Our Zanzibar getaway at The Loop Hotel was simply wonderful. The staff's kindness and the immaculate room were outstanding. The local-inspired decor added a lovely touch. Breakfast, with those irresistible donuts, was a highlight - big thanks to the chefs! Special shout-out to the welcoming staff and reception team for making our stay memorable. The pool area was a true oasis. Highly recommended for an exceptional retreat. Can't wait for our next visit! Warm regards,

Staying at Z-Breeze Hotel in Zanzibar was an absolute pleasure. Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean was incredibly relaxing, and the rooms were tastefully decorated, capturing the island's charm. The food was fantastic, with tropical breakfasts that started our days perfectly. The staff were always ready to help, friendly, and genuinely made us feel at home. It's the kind of place where you can truly unwind and enjoy the laid-back vibes.

Hotel is beautiful and very green, feels like jungle. We came to Zanzibar for honeymoon and this was our first stop in Tanzania. They upgraded our villa to Jungle villa and it was a nice gesture from hotel. Except reception area, staff in the beach bar, restaurant, housekeeping, bar in lobby are nice, helpful and doing their best. Also in the evening there is acrobatic and music entertainment, they are the only nice thing to do in the evening.

Bamboo Design Hotel is the place to stay if you are looking for peaceful and relaxing time. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning, with a design that embodies modern looking, but keeps a touch of Zanzibar style, the views from the pool and restaurant are breathtaking, the staff is very nice, ready to help and they make you feel spoiled, and there is THE FOOD, which was the most delicious, from snacks, to breakfast, lunch and dinner - TASTY!

Our stay at Equalia Rose Hotel in Jambiani, Zanzibar, was a mix of highs and lows. The beachfront location was amazing, with a room offering stunning views just steps from the beach. However, frequent power outages affected our stay, leading to poor Wi-Fi and an inconsistent water boiler. Despite these issues, the friendly staff did everything they could to help. The breakfast, while decent, lacked variety and was the same each day.

The V Hotel offered everything that we needed for holidays - friendly and supportive staff, privacy, close location to the astonishing sandy beach, clean room, place to meet new people, and good starting point for trips to Zanzibar (especially East and South coast). We very much enjoyed hotel terrace in the evenings. The hotel is very comfortable and well decorated. We have very nice memories of this small but very cosy hotel.

Mahali Hotel in Zanzibar provided an extraordinary experience in every aspect that mattered. The service was the epitome of hospitality - attentive, warm, and personalized. The venue itself was stunning, offering breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere that made every moment tranquil and memorable. The facilities were top-notch, offering a perfect blend of luxury and comfort, making it an ideal retreat for relaxation.

Everything was perfect. All the staff was very helpful, especially Mody, the manager, who helped us with everything we needed. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was rich. We booked two excursions through the Hotel and the professional tour expert Lilian recommended the best experiences for us. We felt at home. If we come again to Zanzibar, we will definitely stay at Nungwi Ocean View!

New Teddy's is like paradise, a lot of corners to relax, great breakfast and good dinner. We had an excellent tour in the village with cooking class with the Hotel guide and musician Coco, who also helped us in organizing our way back to Stone Town passing by Josiani Park and a spice farm. Thanks Coco. Great place to enjoy the beach and at the same time discover Zanzibar life!

Fantastic location on the Beach (Little bit of bumpy access road but it is in Zanzibar). Absolutely brilliant staff. Good food and wine, Sparkling clean pool and facilities. We were made to feel so welcome. Hotel brilliant at arranging any trips etc. and they have good local knowledge of better paces to go/visit etc, Probably the best Boutique Hotel I have ever stayed in

Best hotel we stayed in Zanzibar. Nice big rooms, very clean, good aircon, kettle in the room, nice view, good breakfast. After Paje we went to Kendwa but we wanted to come back as all it was much better in Paje and frendlier people. With the sea the tide was not so terrible, so we could swim in the Ocean every day. Hotel has also reasonble prices of food and alcoholic drinks.

Thank you Z-Lodge Hotel for a special vibe and excursion experiences in Zanzibar - it was unforgettable and very emotional stay. Lack of ocean during tides did disturb me before coming, but 2-3 hours of high tide time was enough to swim in the ocean every day. Delicious dishes and cocktails at the restaurant was very important part of vocation. Shortly- Happy with my choice.

We had a very nice welcome to this beautiful Hotel. Staff are very friendly. Spezial thanks for our waitre shaffy and collin. The Breakfast is very good with a lot of different food. Also, dinner was very varied some nights there was traditional cooking or bbq. The hotel is also very close to Zanzibar Kite Paradise - surf school. This hotel is recommendable!

Outstanding personnel and Really Nice Hotel. Rooms are really spacious. Location wise - have in mind that you are on 5 min walking distance (where locals houses are) from the beach. Hotelwise - little too expensive for Zanzibar, but staff is Amazing. All of them are super responsive and will take care of your smallest requests! Cudos guys!

We had an amazing week here in Zanzibar, the Hotel is near the famous and cool Kiwengwa beach and the manager of the Hotel (Daniele) helped us for everything…tours,food,tips about the island every time impeccable,helpful and polite. Good Breakfast, lovely rooms in Zanzibar style. Everything nice! Thanks a lot!

Amazing beachfront location, great food, and friendly staff. Everything I needed was at the hotel. The owner was extremely helpful and accommodating when I had to extend my stay because of canceled flights. It was the perfect peaceful place for me to end my Zanzibar trip. Highly recommend HA Beach Hotel!

We loved our stay at Tembo Hotel! Every single staff member is kind, patient, and knowledgeable about Zanzibar. The breakfast was delicious and was one of our favorite parts of the day. We stayed in one of the rooms down the street and it was sizeable, clean, and well decorated - no complaints at all!
