4 star hotels in Mjini Magharibi Region

Its so authentic hotel You fell like in old times Its clean hotel Breakfast is enough Workers was polite Pretty safe area.. 

GREAT FOR STEPPING BACK IN TIME AND FEELING THE ELEGANCE OF IT ALL.

Recommended hotel, with friendly staff. Really friendly helpful staff. Great rooms. I’d recommend.

Authenticity We state in this hotel for a few nights and I was very impressed with the stuff who was friendly and extremely positive in all aspects. This is Africa and I learned very quickly that I have to adjust my expectations to fully enjoy what this place has to offer. Everyone was trying their best to make this stay for me and my mother enjoyable. Every stay has glitches and any of my concerns...

The location is at the quiet side if the Stone Town. Due to it is situated inside a small alley, the directions could be quite complicated and we were lost several times to head back to the hotel. Despite being assured that it's safe, we were tapped by few mischievous children when we passed by a school near the hotel. That said, the room and hotel itself was great. We particularly enjoyed the breeze...

Beautiful hotel with excellent service from the staff. The hotel is nestled away inside Stone Town but we enjoyed being able to walk to the water and not being far from the sites. The hotel room was beautifully decorated. I would definitely revisit.

We stayed at Bella Vista Resort Zanzibar and had a truly wonderful time. From the moment we arrived, we felt well taken care of; especially by Sharleene, the resort manager. She is an incredible person: kind, professional, and always ready to help. ❤️ Definitely talk to her about excursions, she really knows her stuff. Everything felt relaxed and easy: the driver would wait for us, there was no rushing...

I just returned from a two-week stay at Bella Vista Resort. I regret not booking a longer stay; everything about this place is perfect. The view, the atmosphere, the food, and especially the people who work there are incredibly kind and professional. Sherline, the manager, is a wonderful woman who knows the area very well and is always willing to give advice on what to see. I recommend this place to...

This little haven of a hotel is in the perfect location on a small beach set in beautiful gardens. So peaceful and quiet inside and a perfect retreat to get away from the busy tourist places of Zanzibar. The room was perfect with all the facilities I needed. Great value for money and the staff are amazing from Della in the restaurant to Matilda on reception they couldn’t do enough to ensure you have...

Bella Vista was the accommodation I chose to stay at in the south of Zanzibar, and I truly loved the experience. The property is wonderful: the rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the accommodation offers a beautiful sea view. There are two swimming pools: a larger one, perfect for swimming, and a smaller one, ideal for relaxing and unwinding. It is located close to a fishing village that still...

Stayed here during the election troubles &internet shut down (don’t let that put you off, never happened before and elections only every 5 years) &the manager Charlene made it her own personal crusade to make our holiday as unaffected as possible - she went above and beyond fighting for a replacement safari with tour agents when they cancelled and booked things through the hotel as no cash/ card options...

Beautiful place, nice people, welcoming staff. Our special thanks go to Kelvin, a very talanted and extremely helpful young man. The restaurant requires attention though. Most of the items on the menu are constantly out of stock. The orders are being mixed/messed up all the time. But if you are not too picky about food the place would be the perfect fit.

Location not the best rough road to get there through a local village but once you arrive beautiful property great rooms it was my birthday and they had set up the room which was very much appreciated friendly staff No alchohol served on premises but you can walk outside to a local resturant if you want a drink. Nice clean pool and clean beach for morning walks. 10 minute drive to five star properties...

The best experience ever I recommend if you are planning Zanzibar then please pay your visit to Royal cliff only Everything including rooms, food, service, location, view, price is up to mark

Instant Car Rental Zanzibar delivered the car to a guest at Royal Cliff Zanzibar. When I asked the guest about their stay, they praised Royal Cliff Zanzibar warmly. We at Instant Car Rental were also welcomed very well. Congratulations on your excellent service! We look forward to continued collaboration. Your hospitality and professionalism bring joy. Thank you very much, Royal Cliff Zanzibar!"

Royal Cliff Zanzibar is a peaceful seaside resort in Chuini, offering breathtaking ocean views, spacious rooms, and warm hospitality. The staff are exceptionally friendly, the pool area is relaxing, and the overall vibe is quiet and romantic — perfect for couples or anyone seeking a tranquil escape. While the access road is a bit rough and the beach changes with the tides, these small details are...

It’s a nice place for people who loves quiet places away from the city and a lot of people. The rooms are nice and the food is great if you love spices but they take orders and booking for family outings.

Who has never been there,i I recommend to go and and enjoy . Good assistance

Tucked away, secluded and relaxing. Rooms with amazing views. Good food, private beach, quiet and serenity.

The hotel feels like a home away from home. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Every meal I ate at the hotel was delicious. I also had a full body massage and felt rejuvenated afterwards. I will definitely be coming back any chance I get.

The Villa Fleur de Lys warmly welcomed us and our 20 friends for our wedding overseas. You will be stunned the first time you crossed the door and see the great view the villa offers you. Furthermore, Zoe, Mona and Baraka were always available to help us plan our weeding day and trip. All the staff was so kind and professionnal. Surely we will get back to the villa as this is the perfect place to disconnect...

I cannot recommend this hotel enough. One of the few places that felt human. The service was so warm and friendly unlike many of the other places I've stayed in Zanzibar. So charming, peaceful and beautiful. It felt like staying at home.

Great staff. They are friendly and helpful. Food was good. Lives the weather.. Even the storm was exciting. Went to Makunduchi village. We saw lots of culture and we had local food too. We had a personal driver who was very safe. Will definitely be back

From the moment we entered, the staff was attentive and went above and beyond to make your stay memorable. It offers an intimate and tranquil experience. The boutique hotel combines traditional Zanzibari charm with modern amenities, making it a perfect getaway for relaxation. We truly enjoyed our week. Loved the lush garden, inviting pool, and stunning views overlooking the beach on a cliff, which...

Very cozy and nice place. Location is perfect and it takes just a few minutes by walk to get to the most wonderful beach. People are very kind and helpful. Rooms are very big which is great! Clean and safe accommodation. Recommend to everyone who wants to experience a nice vacation.

Staff were so lovely and tried to help as best they could. Breakfast was included, and pancakes were a firm hit with the children. The chef seemed to always be annoyed with the staff, not sure why. Rooms are definitely dated and not the cleanest. We were moved rooms because the AC was broken and there was a bug cemetery in the original room too. Good location not far from Nungwi beach. Good for putting...

Spent a few days last year at the hotel and we loved the experience, it is located at a walking distance to the beach, the food was good. It was a safe place and nicely quite.

We stayed here for more than 2 weeks, the hotel is located near the beach (3min walk) has a beautiful garden and nice pools. Although Nungwi beach is very crowded you can find your peace in the hotel. The rooms are very spacious and the bathroom is very neat. (Gets cleaned everyday) There’s new staff and they’re all very friendly, always smiling and happy to help. The breakfast was included and...

Clean and comfortable Room space was adequate Very close to the beach a 3 min walk the beach is beautiful you can book your tours from there , the staff are super friendly and the breakfast buffet is good The staff used to offer a takeaway piece of cake to my child everyday

This hotel is quiet and lovely, with big rooms and kind staff, very close to the beach. The food was delicious, for dinner it's possible to have room service. We had some problems with wifi, but the staff was so kind to solve it immediately. We arrived at 4:30am and at first we were not satissfied with room on the first floor, so we got another room after breakfast. We would love to come back again...

The staff were truly amazing and very helpful! The rooms were extremely clean and paid attention to detail too. I highly recommend. Everything is in a walkable distance and great value for money. There also wasn’t any noise at all and the amenities were all easily accessible.

The hotel is beautiful, clean rooms and hotel stuffs are helpful and friendly Great experience, if you are looking for a nice hotel in stonetown I highly recommend beyt as salaam

I had a wonderful stay at Beyt al Salaam. The service was excellent from the moment I arrived. The staff were warm, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and well prepared. I especially loved the peaceful atmosphere and the beautiful design of the hotel. The location is perfect — close to important attractions and very convenient for visitors...

Charming Stay in the Heart of Stone Town! We stayed one night at Beyt Al Salaam and loved its central location in Stone Town. Markets, restaurants, and major attractions are all within walking distance. The hotel has an antique charm with traditional interiors and a warm, welcoming staff. A lovely blend of heritage and hospitality.

This review is at least 10 years late, but Google pics me took down memory lane when we visited the hotel's restaurant back in 2015, we preferred to eat here as opposed to the Double Tree Hotel we were staying that was about a few meters away (pity it's now closed) but the food was absolutely phenomenal, I vividly remember the lady chef (hopefully she's still there) served us like absolute royalty...

Everything about this resort was great, accommodation was very good, big room, with a great shower / bathroom. The food was good, enjoyed the different culture food every night. We met great people, still friends after the trip, we did most of the excursions together. Will be back if we can!

The hotel is beautiful. I had a rest. People are so kind and helpful, always smiling and spreading positive energy. I LOVED the food. Everyday we had something delicious. Soups were my favourite! A Lot of salads and yummy drinks. I want to come back soon again!

Great spot for a restful getaway. All staff very friendly and helpful. This resort seems to be popular with big groups. So you may need to wait a little to get checked in (or get help in general) but don't worry, you will be attended to very soon. Rooms clean and comfy - basic, but what more do you need? It's a beach resort with great weather, so I was only in the room to sleep and shower anyway...

The resort was amazing, perfectly situated on the beach. Drinks were good and lot of variety available. The food was also good despite being a buffet option for the all inclusive package. The only negative was the rooms are not as fancy or as well maintained but it was good enough, comfortable and cleaned daily. Would definitely recommend for a family stay. The evening entertainment was really fun...

the final bill was higher than what we used, so... The check-out time is until 10, although when we ordered in the online system it was written that until 11 o'clock. Staying in the room until 11 was not allowed. The food is delicious, but I saw the waiter putting the food that fell out back into the dish. Some of the staff are very polite, but certainly not all. The location is great, the beach too...

Good value for money, overall quite satisfied

I had a very pleasant time, the service was perfect, I have absolutely no complaints. No further comment needed 🤗

It's a bit far from the city center, but it's okay unless you're on a business trip.

Nice staff Low season, terrible breakfast. Neighbour hotel chuini saved this stay with amazing lunch and dinner. Comfty beds. Friendly staff.

Staff seem to do the best they can despite limitations, very picturesque in itself however was told to get cash to pay for food and expenses as their card machine was not working.

The best Gym I found in an hotel (even a/c didn't work) . The room was enormous, clean and quiet. The Road for getting there Is in bad conditions, as the standard of the Island, excerpt main roads. Breakfast Is simple but good enaugh. Staff very helpful, a nearby beach Is very "authentic" with few europeans. Good experience.

A safe refuge in a chaotic island The stay was very lovely compared to the surrounding parts of Zanzibar. You sometimes forgot there was a world outside the resort. The staff was very respectful and helpful. Grisham in particular was very professional, reliable, well-spoken with English, and was able to meet all our requests (including having breakfast made earlier than normal for our flight) with...

Everything was great! It's so convenient to be by the beach, the breakfast was very varied and delicious, and the pool was great too

A gorgeous hotel right in the center of events. We had a huge room with a view of the ocean and the port, with a large balcony. The only thing is that it was named after the famous slave trader, Tippu Tip. I didn't understand why, it was awkward. But the rest of the hotel is wonderful. Very interesting. You can look at the artifacts that the hotel is full of for a long time. There is a swimming pool...

Wide view, large room, clean and sanitary, rich breakfast variety

Very good! Good room, good facilities, good service. Right by the sea, beautiful scenery, convenient.

The hotel is built on an old house. To be fair, it is very unique. Some corners of the hotel are very photogenic during the day, but the shortcomings are also obvious. First of all, the lighting in the house is insufficient, especially at night, the overall feeling is very old under the dim light, and it does not look clean and hygienic enough. However, considering the price, it is still relatively...

Very close to the ferry to Dar es Salaam. The hotel building is very historic. The room is large and the sea view is right outside the window. The breakfast is rich. The restaurant is on the balcony facing the sea.

We cannot commend this resort enough! It was an absolute fabulous stay and Julius the Manager is absolutely amazing! Amazing food and ambience! A resort well maintained and well run!

Fabulous hotel in lovely location. Rooms are individual bungalows some with private pools. The staff are amazing - thanks especially to Frank. Food was delicious

Love love love it here! We Felt so welcome the start and from then it only got better. Everything we asked for was given. What I really liked was the small scale and how the staff knew your name and took a great effort to fullfill your personal needs. It was so clean and beautiful and the rooms and bathrooms are spacious. And everything was so beautifully decorated. The food and drinks were perfect...

Thank you so much to KHEIR and SHAIBU (I hope I wrote it right) for the very nice gesture they made to us when we asked for theirs hats and made us also 2 hats from the Palma tree leafs! They are gardening employees and very nice people! Also the whole staff is very nice specially the waiter you get assigned, we got Martini but were many others always having good conversation. The food is very very...

This is an excellent hotel located directly on the long beautiful beach on the east coast of Sansibar. The hotel has a large pool sourounded by palm trees and other tropical plants. Very friendly management and staff who pay attention to you whenever needed. Good food and a large selection of wines and drinks. The rooms are spacious and well equipped. A lovely place to spend your holiday on Sansibar

Our stay at the hotel was fantastic! The food was delicious, and the staff were incredibly kind, helpful, and always friendly — everyone had a smile on their face. A special thank you to the lovely lady who served us every day during breakfast and dinner; she was truly wonderful! The hotel was also clean, tidy, and beautifully maintained. We really enjoyed our stay!

We had been on safari and wanted a quiet place to relax for a few days before heading home. We chose White Paradise and are so glad we did. The resort itself is lovely. The grounds are lush with well planted trees and shrubs . There are two pools. The main pool area is quite large and beautifully landscaped. There is even a swim up bar. They could use a few more loungers. The second smaller pool...

I am delighted with my stay at this luxurious resort. I was upgraded from a standard room to a luxurious bungalow with a king-size bed. The breakfast was exceptional and delicious. I thank all the outstanding staff at the resort, especially Frank, the receptionist, and I hope to visit again in the future. Thank you all.

A good place to,good customer service and friendly

A beautiful hotel, the room was incredible, the pool was very nice, the only drawback is that it doesn't have a beach, because the water inside the hotel isn't pretty. They take you to and from the beach, but it's still worth it, staying there for two or three days and going on excursions.

Nice hotel but the beach is terrible. People are hospitable

Very good hotel, full of privacy and comfort. The hotel has a super good swimming pool and a large space. You can swim and dine in the hotel. Or enjoy the sea view. There are different programs every night, singing and dancing, etc.

This resort in Zanzibar is perfect for honeymooners and relaxing by the pool. It is centrally located for excursions. It has an excellent resturant accessed by a long boardwalk over the changing tides. The staff are very friendly and attentive to your needs

The hotel is very nice but is starting to look a little tired in places. The swimming pool and beach are lovely and it's a very relaxing place to be. The food I'm afraid is not good. My friend and I arrived mid morning and we had left Arusha very early in the morning so we needed coffee and something to eat. We were given a cup of instant coffee, dried bread and a couple of stale croissants....not...

This hotel is for some reason listed as 3*, but it punches way above that and the experience we had was much nearer to 5*. Everything was perfect here. The staff were so attentive, friendly, helpful and charming. The room was large, comfy bed, good bathroom. The cooking was of a very high standard, plentiful and interesting and appealing to all tastes. The cocktails were delicious and very good value...

We have just had a fabulous week at Pongwe Bay Resort. This is more like a wellness retreat than a hotel. The layout is fantastic. Our chalet/villa was situated on the beach within 50m of the magnificent restaurant and pool. The beach area is idyllic with ample palm tree seated shelters. A 300-meter wooden pier leads to 'The Club' a further restaurant/bar within the Indian Ocean. OUR VILLA We were...

We stayed here during our visit to Zanzibar. A beautiful place, great location, a walk to clean, well maintained beach. 5 mins walk to Kongowea Pier restaurant. Hotel rooms were great, cleaned daily, evening curtain drawn, insecticide sprayed, mosquito net drawn. Lovely relaxing porch, a ladder provided to hang swimming suits by the porch, Breakfast was well organised so was lunch and dinner. Pool...

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon, which we took on our 1yr anniversary. We were welcomed so well there by the team. They helped arrange EVERYTHING for us. Our arrival was splendid. They welcomed us with this very tasty homemade passion fruit juice. Our first dinner was amazing, the portions were bigger than we'd anticipated. Their lobster pasta? In fact their whole seafood dishes...

This is the most amazing place to stay in Zanzibar, we booked for my wifes birthday and they did not disappoint. An amazing holiday which will stay with us for the rest of our lives. Thankyou to Pradeesh for everything ftom prganisind room decorations and birthday surpries meals. We cant thank you and your team enough.😋

Our stay at Sensation Hotel was beyond amazing — truly one of the best hotel experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome. Everyone was incredibly kind, friendly, and genuinely cared about our comfort. A huge special thank you to Pardeep, who is an absolute superstar. He and his team were always there whenever we needed anything — always listening, always...

We had an amazing stay at this hotel and would 100% choose it again when coming back to Zanzibar. Everything was spotless and very well maintained, and we truly appreciated how careful the staff were with daily spraying to keep mosquitoes and other insects away — it made a big difference and made us feel very comfortable. The atmosphere is extremely quiet, safe, and perfect for relaxation. What really...

We had a fantastic stay at Eco-Chic Sensations in Zanzibar. The hotel is beautiful and unique, with soft sand all over the ground, which really adds to the relaxed island vibe. The weather was lovely and hot, and the whole place is incredibly pretty and peaceful. The staff were all so kind, welcoming, and genuinely lovely, always happy to help and making us feel very well looked after. The massage...

We stayed at Sensations Eco-Chic Hotel and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The suite itself was stunning — incredibly spacious, luxury and perfect for a longer stay. It truly felt like a home away from home. The service was outstanding throughout our stay. Having a dedicated WhatsApp group made everything effortless, from arranging reservations to small requests — nothing was...

Very nice hotel with great staff & exceptional food. However, be aware that early check is eye wateringly expensive. After an overnight flight we were exhausted & felt as if we had been mugged for $150 as we arrived for less than 4 hours in a room that had already been serviced & was ready for us.

Stayed in Marafiki Bungalows for 3 nights. Amazing place, very hood service from all staff +reception, clean and comfy Bungalow, great pool ,bar and tasty breakfast. The beach on this side(east) is affected more by the tide, 5 minutes ride and you are at Kinengwa beach, one of the best in the world. The obvious advantage of the relative distance is the peace and quiet and the amazing feel of remoteness...

Perfect Bungalows Marafiki Bungalows was a delight. But what made it a perfect location to rest & relax were all the employees. Lots of flora & fauna & quite. Management were women and everything done perfectly & no detail forgot. We had a Gluten Free person traveling with us & the chefs were super accommodating. Food was all delicious . Pool & beach were beautiful. A special thank you to Jackson...

This is our all time favourite stay, beautiful gardens, lovely sea view, staff are exceptional. Everyone went out of their way to make our stay great. Food was excellent Felt like we were staying with a family. Perfect place to relax and enjoy. If u are looking for action and tons of activities then look elsewhere, this is a place to chill, so safe and they look after everything. U can get to places...

We stayed here for 5 nights and had a lovely time! Good food, plenty of options for meals. Lovely pool, nice small beach area which is suitable for swimming at certain times of the days. Very friendly staff. Rooms very nice, spacious, lots of comfortable outdoor seating (both private with the rooms and around the pool, beach). Particularly loved the bush babies who you could see and hear when it was...

A beautiful boutique styled hotel with comfortable bungalows most with ocean views and lovely front balcony's. The owners are Polish (most resorts in Zanzibar are owned by foreigners), who were kind and helpful. We visited at shoulder season, so there was plenty of pool chairs to choose from. This is a hotel that you would choose if you want to enjoy a quite, smaller resort with a pool and good food...

One of the best places to stay in zanzibar. Beautiful resort and amazing hospitality.

We stayed for six nights over Christmas and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel safe and truly at home. We enjoyed the pool, the beach, the good food, and especially how the team made Christmas Eve extra special—it felt more like a celebration with friends than a hotel event. On our last day, we were kindly given a late check-out as I wasn...

Spent 5 relaxing days at Spice Island over the Christmas holiday. The rooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. There are a lot of lounging spaces around the pool and facing the beach. Internet is good and the massage I got was better than I expected. The jetty bar is a great place for a sundowners drink, although the sun sets on the other side of the island. Food options for lunch and dinner...

Amazing people, the personal are always happy, and helpful and very kind. The room was extremely clean and very comfortable bed. Amazing beach. Good, tasty food. We had a wonderful time! Thank you for everyone 🙂

The hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. The pool is much larger than in other hotels, and the pier was simply unique. From there, you have direct access to the sea and a breathtaking view of the Indian Ocean. The entire resort is very well maintained, and the lovingly designed garden invites you to relax. The staff were extremely friendly and always helpful. The food was excellent, we enjoyed...

Incredible location, rooms, amenities, activities and people. We were really impressed by every detail and I suspect we will be back :-)

We loved staying at Spice Island hotel and resort. We noticed how the staff was very friendly from the first moment. We also really enjoyed our room and the food. No complaints at all.

Albatross Ocean View is a wonderful small hotel. The whole staff is very friendly. Food, rooms and service are also excellent. Very familiar atmosphere. The staff also offers support in planning trips in Sansibar!

This nice, relatively small and well maintained hotel offers everything you need. Enjoy the outstanding hospitality of a wonderful team and an excellent kitchen. We had a beautiful room on the second floor wiht a spacious balcony and a wonderful view of the beach and the ocean. The rooms was nice and very clean. We can just recommend this place! Nothign to critizice at all.

We stay to this hotel for two weeks in middle of July.We enjoy every minute of our stay. From the reception, to the boys and girls in restaurant, the cleaning team, the Kinando this very special Massai man, the Frank the man behind everything and of course the Samson. The general manager with solutions for everything. The hotel is on the beach, very clean , with spacious rooms. A little tired but...

Great time in this human scale hotel , with great service , and great place . We have stayed Ten Days , i was a great experience , really peacefull. The staff is really sympathic , and we had great surprise form the staff during our romantic stay.

The hotel was very beautiful with great views of the ocean. The staff was very accomadating. With low tides in the mornings we were able to walk along the beach. This a secluded beach best for couples. Our suite was ocean front with the best views of the ocean

The hotel was very good, I would definitely come back here if I visit Zanzibar again. The service and food were of very good quality, we took the all inclusive package which I would recommend when you stay here. It contains all food (a la carte) and drinks, including very nice cocktails made with fresh fruits. The staff was exceptional. Mozes, Peter,Innocent and Benjamin took very good care of us...

We just came back from Sultan Palace in Zanzibar, and honestly, words are not enough to describe the experience – it was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived late at night, we were greeted with the warmest hospitality I’ve ever experienced anywhere. A very special thank you to the manager Pradeep, to Richard who took care of us daily with endless patience, and to Abdullah, the talented...

We just spent 8 days in Zanzibar. After our initial 2 days at the North of the island, we moved to Sultan Palace for 6 days. We must admit WOW factors from beginning. The reception staff, all the restaurant staff, the housekeeping and Gardners, the beach staff and last but not least Hotel manager Mr Pradeep Kumar and his wife all deserved to be praised. The location of the hotel is excellent- so tranquil...

Beautiful hotel with very very nice people there. The view is amazing. It s calm place to enjoy and chill.

Room: We had a suite for 5 people. It had three beds. At the entrance, there was a single bed, separated by a curtain, and two double beds. The beds were very comfortable and had mosquito nets. The bathroom was huge, with two sinks, two shower heads over a shared tub, and a separate toilet. The terrace was spacious and had loungers and chairs, and a wonderful view of the sea. Food: The staff made a...

The hotel is just okay. The rooms? Okay. The location? Far from everything so if you’re planning on going out a car is needed. The service? Good. The food? Extremely salty.

A gem of a hotel. Lovely staff, fabulous rooms, beach super quiet and picturesque. We only stayed one night, to go to kendwa which I regretted. The type of place that makes you forget work, worries, problems. Will go back! 💕

Work in the hotel not reported and therefore constant noise from morning to night... On our arrival, we had a wrong room for the first night in a room for 2 for 3 with faulty air conditioning which flooded the floor of the room, soaking the suitcases. Table service very average.

Excellent breakfast and a very good all-day menu. We loved the laid-back feel to the place, with wonderful sandy walkways and a pretty garden. It was simple but elegant - and the entertainment was a fantastic extra - we enjoyed live acoustic music, a fire show on the beach and on our last night a drumming show with dancing on the sand. Absolutely perfect.

The location of the hotel is picturesque. The hotel is great for those who look for peaceful and quiet vacation. WITH 11 rooms and full service, it almost felt like a private resort. The food is amazing, you must ask the chef to make you local dishes - these are exceptional. Stuff was very kind, friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs.

We would like to thank to everyone at Natural Garden Hotel. Amur, Olivia, Eric, Samuel, Isa, Ewa, and all the staff took good care of us, and our children. We have stayed 5 days first, than we came back for additional 4 days, as this place offered the best comfort during our 20 days stay in Zanzibar. Breakfast was great, fresh, happy hour pizza, beer, cocktails were a good deal. The pool and the rooms...

From the beginning of our stay till the end we enjoyed every minute. The rooms are very clean, the Garden is groomed and beautiful, the food is delicious, the stuff is amazing and the view is stunning. I will return.

Loved it! That’s the perfect stay if it’s comes to visit the east coast. The hotel is direct on the beach , you ll have an amazing view, the staff is really welcoming and helpful for arranging tours. We been eating almost every meal there because they got delicious food zanzibar style. The spacious rooms are comfy and really clean. We loved to stay here and we ll always come back. I can recommend it...

This stay was honestly something out of a dream. Having a room that overlooks the beach was already incredible, but the private mini pool took the whole experience to another level. Sitting in the pool while enjoying the endless ocean view it truly felt like an infinity escape. Waking up to the sound of the waves and that uninterrupted view of the sea was so peaceful and refreshing. It’s the kind...

Amazing location. This hotel is right on the beach and had an excellent restaurant. The management was extremely kind and went to the pharmacy for us to pick up some medication for sea sickness. This hotel could use some refreshing. My room air-conditioner leaked all over my clothes. But they were very efficient in drying my clothes. One suggestion I would make is that the rooms that are not in...

Requested and got the best room...seafront with the sound of the sea plus the colours of the water made this a very memorable stay.Great pool to be a lounge lizard if desired.Beautiful surroundings and quiet atmosphere.Service and staff exceptional. N.B.It's a one and half hour drive from to/ the airport.Don't let that deter you!

We enjoyed our stay here. The staff was phenomenal and extremely accommodating. If you’re looking for a large sandy beach just steps away from your hotel this may not be your place. There is a beautiful pool overlooking the ocean and a very small and rocky beach area. It was extremely quiet and family friendly! We enjoyed being away from crowds of tourists and vendors. One thing to improve upon is...

Just returned from this great hotel last week, Myself and Wife had eleven nights staying in a ocean front deluxe room which was well appointed with a comfortable bed and smashing views over the sea/reef, fitted our needs completely. The swimming pool area was well maintained and serviced with just a handful of guests on most days offering such a relaxing and tranquil experience, so good that we only...

Tucked away in a quieter part of Nungwi, Warere Beach Hotel is a charming escape with 19 thoughtfully designed rooms, including family suites and oceanfront accommodations. Each room features air conditioning, WiFi, terraces or balconies, and safes, ensuring comfort and convenience. Guests can unwind at the poolside bar, savor delicious meals at the on-site restaurant, or indulge in relaxing treatments...

Had an amazing stay at Hekaya for 3 nights. The rooms, property, service, staff were amazing. The view from the room was the big reason to book this stay, and I was not disappointed at all. The people running this property are so helpful and always are there with a smile, makes your stay memorable. The best thing of stying here was going for my morning walk on the beach early morning during the sunrise...

This was our second stay at Hekaya this year. Jackline gave us a very warm welcome and took excellent care of us throughout our 17-day stay. Her honest and genuine personality makes you feel like you are truly part of the Hekaya family. We would also like to say a big thank you to the entire staff, including John the gardener and Mr. Pool Man 😂 — and especially for supplying us with hundreds of papayas...

Everything about Hekaya Zanzibar is charming. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean and big. Thank you Jennifer for such a great job! The views of the Indian Ocean spectacular! The staff could not be friendlier and accomodating. I wondered if they have okra and I got it! Fresh salads, seafood, meats. Every dinner different. Tariq, Dennis and Mohammed were always friendly and we had some good conversations...

Great location right on the beach, good service and friendly staff. Not many rooms so quiet, but has everything you'd need. Food especially is very good, all fresh produce with a different menu each evening, usually featuring the catch of the day. Recommended!
