Hotels with pool in Zanzibar City

Amazing amazing place from the beautiful scenery to the excellent service !! It runs like a well oiled machine , they pay attention to detail to everything!! Special shout out to Mbarouk, Mbonea , Pianeto , Ritha and Jonny they made the visit extra special

Certainly! Here's an exceptional review for Sea Cliff **A Slice of Paradise at Sea Cliff Resort** I recently had the privilege of staying at Sea Cliff Resort in Zanzibar, and it was an unforgettable experience that truly exceeded all my expectations

What I really want to highlight with Sea Cliff is the extremely friendly and service minded staff working at Sea Cliff. Wherever you went around the facilities you were met with a smiling face and a friendly approach

The lush gardens, swaying palm trees, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore create an idyllic atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. **The Rooms:** My room was an oasis of comfort and elegance

The turndown service was a nice touch, and the themed dinners were great, with the Indian night being my favourite. But the highlight of my stay was kayaking at sundown, a first for me and truly unforgettable

From fresh seafood to local Zanzibari delicacies, each meal was a culinary delight. The breakfast buffet was particularly impressive, with an extensive selection of fresh fruits, pastries, and hot dishes

example the pool floor/area and bathrooms -Its more of a work hotel. I would stay there if I had a conference in Zanzibar or something similar. As a tourist one day was more than enough

We had a very good experience. Their food is so nice. We were warmly welcomed at the restaurant by Hafidh and he served us very well..

I was travelling with a group of 8 and we could not fly out of Zanzibar. The verde hotel was very gracious and provided a great buffet breakfast

Excellent service, the customer care is so friendly and the food is So delicious.I say Hotel Verde is the place for luxury and enjoyment

Particularly service oriented were these people Hafidh Soud Bakari Anjelina

We were a group of four staying in four single rooms for four nights, and our experience at Hotel Verde Zanzibar was exceptional. The property is clean, peaceful, and well-managed — a true eco-friendly haven

This hotel is right next to the airport, so the location is unbeatable. The room was very clean and a decent size. Compared to other hotels in Zanzibar, it offers good value for money

A super welcoming hotel. With very professional staff. Everything was perfect, except that we no longer had hot water in the evening. We even met the president. Recommended..Leeci

It was a great hotel. It was within a 10 minute walk from the airport. The staff were all friendly and the amenities were plentiful. The breakfast buffet was also great.

The only downside is that it's quite far from Stone Town, about a 20-minute drive

The room was spacious and bright, and the environment was excellent.

Meets expectations, highly recommended, close to the airport

The drink and meal prices are higher than most places nearby, but the ambiance and service are worth it. We also enjoyed the pool area on the days that were sunny

I came with friends to see the sea. It is in the center of Stone Town and has a good location. Overall it is good and I will choose it again if I have the chance.

We are big fans of the Hyatt brand, especially Park Hyatt and Alila, and this hotel did not disappoint, in fact our expectations, although high, were met or exceeded in most every way

It's not new, but very beautiful. When we checked in, they said there were no sea view rooms, what a pity. ; The hotel is on the west side of the island

The hotel is beautiful. It is located at the heart of Stone town. If you like luxury than this hotel is for you. I’m definitely going to go back. The food and the friendly staff made my stay extra special.

Haha, maybe the African coconuts are not the right variety, they don't feel sweet enough. The overall service facilities are good and meet the standards of a 5-star hotel

A nice atmosphere, hotel around by the beautiful trees, huge rooms. Amazing staff, especially at reception and pool bar (Mohamed and Christopher 👍)!

The Madinat Al Bahr hotel is conveniently located at a beach near the airport (3km, 6-10min drive) and also not far from Zanzibar City (7km, around 10-15min drive) with its famous stone town and ferry terminal to Dar Es Salaam etc

The beginning was a little bumpy yet after I addressed my concerns, the management in all departments including frontdesk and F&B went out of there way to make this visit for my mother and me even more memorable than expected

The hotel's architecture is impressive. The breakfast buffet is nice, but lunch an dinner buffet happens only on weekends. The restaurant kitchen is strong on local Swaheli food, fresh produce and Indian dishes

Next to a dinner invitation we were honored with a massive room upgrade with no questions asked. The staff was always extremely friendly and forcoming. I can definitely recommend this magnificent looking Hotel

But don't order the T-Bone steak. I asked for medium rare but got a hard boiled (!) though correct piece of meat but too tough to either cut or chew. The rooms are big and clean with nice ocean views

Staff were really helpful especially the receptionists. The food was really good and had a wide range of variety. The bars are nice especially jetti bar by the Ocean. Room was good except for the foul smell of humidity

We visited Namaste Restaurant as a family and Denis took care of us. He was incredibly kind, patient, and professional throughout our visit. He made sure everything was perfect and checked in on us regularly

When I was making my research about hotels in the island, Paradise Beach Resort definitely called my attention for all its offered benefits and facilities such as the All Inclusive package, daily entertainment shows, different bars and pools to enjoy

This is supposed to be a 4 star Resort. Our room towels were changed on day6. The coffee station was only filled on day 2 and day 6

The food at Namaste was very tasty and the spices were very mild. Dennis' was serving us always wearing an engageous smile and always helpful. Dennis has been professional everyday.

The staff were absolutely friendly, professional and helpful. I want to mention Happy Hostess, Johannes the masai, the chef Lotfy. The hospitality was BEYOND my expectations, they made me feel like in home

The room is clean and tidy, the service is fast, the attitude is friendly, the cleaning is in place, the facilities are advanced, and the environment is beautiful

Good location, friendly staff, and decent pricing - all you could want!

In the core location of Stone City, there is a highly rated restaurant on the rooftop. It takes only five minutes to walk to the night market. The free shortbread for check-in is very fragrant and delicious

The hotel has a great location right in Stone City, and it's considered one of the cleaner and more modern hotels in the city. There's a rooftop restaurant, but it's quite expensive.

The room is clean and comfortable. I will stay here again next time I go to Stone City

Nice hotel, friendly service but breakfast left me wanting a bit. Good location in Stonetown, everything is within walking distance in my opinion. A few good restaurants and bars close by.

The whole hotel is beautiful, our room was great (and had air-conditioning), everything was clean and well maintained. Great views of Stone Town from the rooftop

our experience was 10/10, staff are so lovely and accommodating and very polite. thank you dhow palace hotel!

We went to this hotel to have coffee. We really liked the design of the hotel, lots of interesting interior items. And the coffee was great!

The room is generally good, clean, breakfast variety

Excellent location and very easy to walk to from any area of Stone Town, would recommend

Such a lovely hotel for a very affordable price. Located in the city center next to those winding shopping streets, very stylish with the vintage furniture on the inside and incredibly helpful staff!

The breakfast was amazing with the European continental and Indian Cuisines along with great variety of locally sourced fresh fruits and juices. The hotel staff are very cooperative and friendly

The vibe, the aesthetic ambience, my most favourite rooftop view, delicious Indian food, cozy rooms, and above all, the warmth of the entire Maru Maru team make every stay truly special

They attended to all our needs at the earliest. The only problem was the lift being not operational for access to guest rooms. Otherwise the overall experience was pretty awesome!

Anand for always making me feel at home. The hospitality is exceptional and leaves you wanting to come back again and again

The rooms were spacious, equipped with good ventilation, storage and overall well maintained

beautiful venue and facilities. Staff are very polite and try their best

He gave us lots of tips for Stone Town and also of a cultural nature. The breakfast is great, the selection at the buffet is local and international, as is the dinner

Everything was great except I did not receive the food and beverage credit that was promised with my ******* reservation.

The bed was perfect and our room had a nice view of the pool and ocean. The staff, Rabia, Yunus, and Yussuf Big to name only a few were great. A perfect place to stay for 4 days before our safari.

Great Stay Wonderful hotel on the beach in Stone Town. Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast buffet. Nice views and pool.

The room was beautiful and very clean. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. The food was wonderful. And a great location for walking around Stone Town which was very safe. In all an excellent stay.

Staff were very helpful and friendly, particularly the receptionist who helped us with booking our transfer to the airport at the end of our stay

The room is very big and the electrical appliances are Chinese brands! The beach is right at the door, so it's convenient to go out to the sea. The hotel has three swimming pools and the children had a lot of fun

The overall feeling is good, but the network is not good and it is a bit far from the swimming pool.

If you like the local style, this hotel is the best among the hotels and is highly recommended. Because it is right by the sea, there will be crows as your companions during the open breakfast

The price/performance ratio is good for an all-inclusive hotel in Zanzibar. The beach outside the hotel is very beautiful. The sunset is super beautiful. I spent three nights happily.

It's very convenient to go to Stone Town, just a few steps away

Very ok, I will carry your luggage for you throughout the trip

Unbelievable, a gorgeous property. The photos do not do it justice. We will be back The team were very welcoming and were also very kind making us an early breakfast so we could eat before our flight from Zanzibar

We recently celebrated our anniversary at Zanzi Resort, and the experience exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel genuinely welcome and well taken care of

We stayed in an ocean front villa with a private pool, which offered excellent privacy and seclusion—something we particularly appreciated as a Muslim couple

Amazing Resort! Thank you for everything! We celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary and had a lovely dinner at the beach! Everything was amazing, so friendly staff and exellent food and service!

The setting allowed us to fully relax without concern, and the villa itself was spotless, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed

Everything about this hotel is 5*!! The property is extremely well maintained! The food was absolutely delicious, every single member of staff was so lovely, attentive and welcoming! We sat out on the jetty every day to view sunset - breathtaking views and we also managed to see some dolphins! Thank you for looking after us so well and giving our family some wonderful memories :)

Private pool with loungers that you can be served both food and drinks at, perfect place to relax amongst a lovely manicured garden. Dinner and drinks on the rooftop terrace to see the sun set over the harbour water

Food was excellent with great seafood and continental dishes. Drinks were reasonable and solidly strong with lots of cocktails. My wife has stayed here before and we would both stay here again! Thank you Seyyida!

It's good, but there is no parking space. It cost 20 dollars to park on the street.

Stayed here while we spent an evening in Stonetown, lovely hotel with friendly staff. Rooms were clean and well-kept with the charm of a period Zanzibarian building

Well located location. Hearty breakfast. Very caring staff.

Close to the beach/night Market

Our trip was a fantastic journey into wilderness and pure nature. We had spend a wonderful week with great outdoor activities and exploring the whole island. The staff was very welcoming and warmhearted

We enjoyed snorkeling, tidal walks, forest trails, crab walks and a lot more while learning more about ecological subjects. The cabins were very comfortable and the food was also absolutely delicous!

Tropical paradise with awesome snorkeling, monstrous crabs, and beautiful birds. A day trip is possible, but definitely stay overnight, if only for the Coconut Crab walking tour

Chombe is a little bit of heaven! I don't know where to begin in my praise for the charming staff, delicious food, interesting activities (Thankyou so much J2) and idyllic setting. A really magical experience.

From what I understand, that’s not supported by current scientific evidence — African baobab trees can live for thousands of years, but reliably dated individuals are generally around 2,000–2,500 years old, not tens of thousands

There was another moment when a guide identified a fish, but it turned out the name he gave wasn’t correct — another member of our group corrected it, and later research confirmed the group member’s name was accurate

I stayed at Zanzibar Palace Hotel from June 8 to June 10 and had an amazing experience. The hotel is full of character, with beautiful Zanzibari decor and a peaceful atmosphere

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

The staff were incredibly warm and helpful, the breakfast was delicious, and the location was perfect—close to all the sights, yet quiet at night

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

The decoration is very exquisite, not as old as the pictures look.

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

The food was always fresh and portions were very generous! The swimming pool was always well-maintained and clean

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 nearby if you want change of scenery(went to seacliffresort for a sundowner)

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

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

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

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

A heartfelt thank you to Khadijah, who went above and beyond by helping us rock our baby to sleep so we could enjoy our meal without rushing. That kind of care is rare and deeply appreciated

The staff were truly amazing and very helpful! The rooms were extremely clean and paid attention to detail too. Everything is in a walkable distance and great value for money

The location is perfect — close to important attractions and very convenient for visitors. Breakfast and meals were fresh and delicious, and the overall hospitality was outstanding

There also wasn’t any noise at all and the amenities were all easily accessible

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

Friendly staff, especially Ally from the restaurant, who was very attentive and made sure we were happy the whole time at breakfast or while sitting by the pool

I was disappointed with the pool and rocky beach so was not able to enjoy. Otherwise would highly recommend

Really good place, we loved our experience here for our first days in Zanzibar ! We recommend this hotel, the room was really nice and the people too everyone was sweet and helpul ! The view is beautiful too when eating or drinking something ! Thanks to the team !!

There’s a pool and a restaurant, but we just watched the sunset at the bar on the “beach”

I can say much but lots of gratitude for the lovely service I got at this lovely hotel,the checkin was flawless I arrived quite early and they went overboard and gave me an early checkin, the room was a seaview quite different from what I had booked they did an upgrade for me which was a surprise by itself I had the best experience thanks to zanzibar beach and promise to be back next year

This comes from the Nice hospitality that i got from the Hotel from the day i started to about the hotel details, i can say the customer service was superb The hotel design , the hotel view and the bedroom are so comfy Thank You

I recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Stone Town. It is close to all the attractions. There is a wonderful restaurant on the roof with a view, where it is always cool. There is a swimming pool and a coffee shop

Room was small but ok for our one night stay. Airconditioning and wifi worked well. Bed was too hard, at least for us. Breakfast was quite ok but service at breakfast was not. Nice, small pool in the garden

Friendly reception, clean rooms, cute pool and rooftop restaurant, enjoyed my stay 😀

Nice lobby, pool and cafe area. Rooms are dated and bedding is nasty! Staff great. Location good. Well priced for a short 1 night stay.

A great hotel in the city center. All the sights are close by, making it a convenient base for exploring new destinations.

Top hotel with perfect location, super friendly staff and excellent service. Recommended!

I stayed at this resort for weeks and it was worth my money spent. Amazing service by the staff. Delicious food! Not forgetting the fresh different types of juice served in the morning . I will definitely go back there.

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 a smile

The food was good, and BiBi's restaurant is a short drive away if you desire something else. FOR UPPER MANAGEMENT: The executive suite was extremely spacious, but the fridge didn't open or seem to be on for us

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.

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

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