This was PARADISE. We had the most amazing time here, it was hard to leave! The staff were fantastic and accomodating. This is a smaller hotel, with smaller rooms but we spent most of our time at the beach, on the day bed or in the pool, which we enjoyed as we had the beach all to ourselves and on our doorstep. We enjoyed our breakfast here and had lunch/dinners also. We visited many other restaurants nearby and still felt the quality, service and price were best at Sea View Lodge.

For African standards - all good (clean rooms, polite stuff, relatively good WiFi) despite food :c every breakfast the same, for dinner small portions. HAKUNA MATATA

It was a small lovely hotel on the beach. The beautyful garden and the pool was very well kept. All service was outstanding. All staff was incredibly friendly and everyting we asked for was taken care of at once. The food was good and the chefs were flexible regarding my food intolerance. Bed was comfortable and AC effective. Lovely to sit on the balcony of the cottage in the afternoon and at sunset.

Small and calm boutique hotel, perfectly located on amazing beach with white sand. I would say, it is on the best part of Jambiani beach (there is still sufficient space on the beach during high tide). Hotel has pool, massages, nice restaurant with tasty cuisine and about 16 houses to accommodate. Rooms are ok, comfy, a bit of renovation needed. The staff in the hotel is amazing, lovely people working there, very polite and helpful. I recommend it.

Very atmospheric and beautiful hotel. Friendly service, warm regards to J-4 who is a wonderful man, always happy to help 🙏
Beautiful view from the restaurant! I am very pleased with my stay and I recommend it! Lovely people 🥰

I cannot recommend staying here. Price value ratio feels like a scam compared to the other hotels nearby. The included breakfast is okayish , but does not included fresh juice (tetrapack sugar juice)and the coffee was terrible. When we mentioned that the coffee tasted more like water we were refered to the expensive cart of the hotel. All prices are exaggerated!!
The worst was that our bathroom had mold and hair of the previous guests. The shower was cold most of the time and the water quality was so bad that after showering the skin smelled bad. In generell the room was badly maintained. I used the laundry service luckily only for 3 pieces because the prices were thrice as high compared to the better hotel we changed to . The location is nice but there a not enough sunbeds for all guests and the space is a little cramped in general.
However after complaining the hotel manager let us check out earlier than planned and payed us back the money for the rest of the nights we did not stay there. I don't know how it got so many good reviews. I recommend in general to chose a hotel on the spot because many reviews and pictures on Google and booking are misleading.

Lovely walks on the beach, swimming and enjoying local lunch and drinks...

Room we had, can do with some tender love and care...lovely sea view, is about all it has to mention.

The Sea View Lodge Boutique Hotel is a place where the diverse “colors” of African culture combine with delicious flavors of Italian cuisine and the top level of service provided. All this is seasoned with the taste of traditional Zanzibar spices and the authenticity of this undiscovered non-touristy place that is located on the most beautiful beach in Zanzibar.

It is challenging to find words that would express the unique vibe that you can experience while spending your vacation at The Sea View Lodge Boutique Hotel. The manager and all the staff members will make sure that each of the guest can assemble a unique mosaic of unforgettable moments, where even the unspoken wish is made true.

The professional management and collaborative team work, especially the effort and heart that is reflected in everyone's work, make this place simply special. Place, where you are welcomed with hospitality and smile, where you are inspired by sense of humour and distinctive approach and at the same time treated with respect and profesionality.

This place allows you to slow down and enjoy the day from the early morning. I loved swimming in the ocean while watching the sunrise. Imagine to sit on the open terrace on the beach afterwards and start your day with rich breakfast, including home-made pastries and cookies.

During the day you can either relax on the most comfortable armchairs by the pool or on the private beach area or go for a walk alongside the coast to nearby village. After having glass of local wine, I highly recommend having a taste of the chef’s specialties. On top of that you can fall asleep in cosy, stylish and spacious bungalows, hearing nothing just the sound of the ocean waves.

Thank you for creating a place, that allows you to turn your dream image of an ideal vacation into reality, moreover that exceeded all expectations. The easier it was to feel touched the harder it was to leave.

[Long review- click on it for more, in short:] For the price quite nice. Still, you get what you pay for - lower middle class.

Rooms:
+ Every evening somebody came to spray anti-insect spray in our room
+ Shower was warm 6/7 nights
+mosquito nets on every window so you could leave them open
- The rooms are very small (had numbers 8 and 9, 10 is probably the same- ocean view).
- The bed had termites, which you could hear at night eating the wood.
- There were stains on the bed sheet and the towels
- Bed was very Hard, seemed quite old
- Safe didnt open one time. We asked for help and somebody came with different keys but none fitted. After 10 Minutes it opened again but would not trust this safe (A thief could just carry it away)
- no curtain in front of bathroom window and staff was hanging out there. Felt quite odd getting out of the shower at night when lights were on inside

Restaurant:
+ Dinner and Lunch were very good
+ Breakfast: you could ask for specific types of eggs that were quite nice and on point
+ Drinks in general were quite nice
- Breakfast rest was not the best...
- Chapati was gone after 09:15 and the chef didn't make any after (even if breakfast was until 10:00)
- The cook made chapati for every dish but requesting simply chapati and a banana (which is basic af) was “impossible”
- For breakfast you get five options: Cereals, Toast, Chapati, little bit of fruit and egg. Things to put on the toast: fruit egg or jam

In general breakfast was half buffet, half a la carte. Coffee was terrible, only good one with extra charge.

Hotel:
+ Nice view
+ Nice pool
+ Nice massage (quite cheap)
- Old beach chairs, some of them are a little bit broke
- Mattresses on beach chairs had many stains
- not enough chairs for all guests
- We gave the reception our key when going out, but after coming back at 11 pm the key was gone and we had to ask the security guard to wake up the manager which got the key for us. One time can happen but two times is quite annoying. First time took more than half an hour. Although we appreciate the security guy going out of his way, there was no reimbursement, no nothing, even after the second time just a sorry from the manager
0 (neutral but good to know: we wanted to shorten our time to stay in jambiani in order to go also to the north/ stone town but that was not possible. You can only cancel 5 days in advance of the first night).

In general the interior and exterior bit run down...

Additional things which are not really related to the hotel:
- the street is in a very bad condition and has no light- walking in the night to other restaurants may make you feel a little bit uncomfortable but nothing happened to us
- “Flycatcher” will wait for you on the beach and talk to you immediately you put a foot on the beach. Sleeping/relaxing on the beach is not possible - they will wake you up every 20 minutes

Putting it a 4 * is a misunderstanding. Many will write that it is other 4 * - non-European, etc., for me it should be a determinant of quality, especially when the price of the entire trip, compared to the quality, is significantly overstated. For me, the standard is poor 3.

From the beginning ... rooms themselves are rather dirty and old, bathroom with damp and peeling plaster. There are holes in the sheets and cracking mattresses underneath the sheets. Many rooms have no mosquito nets and the air conditioning is not working. The smell of moisture is quite noticeable.

The staff tried a wonderful cleanliness and that's a big plus for this place. The working people tried very hard and this is one of the few positives of this facility.
Property is managed by an economic expat from Italy. Managed poorly.

The food is modest and tasteless. There were dinners untouched by all the guests (banana in the main course with dry chicken and the same banana as dessert). Coincidence? I do not think so.

Well, despite the pandemic and the inability to serve in the form of a buffet, we expected that in this sunny country we will find variety of fruits and vegetables with high quality and quantity. Perhaps elsewhere so - not in Sea View. Small portions and quite poor quality. It happened once she received an octopus but it was so rubbery that ... it was impossible to eat it.
No animation.
The pluses as above: employees, nice, unobtrusive, clean, with a sense of humor. The hotel is intimate with nice local "houses".
The weather is probably everywhere there not just in SeaView.
I do not reccomend if you expect nice food and proper quality of facility.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
