Zanzibar, Shangani Street, Stone Town 🧭 Map
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.
Good, could be great with some changes.
The location is in Stone Town, which is convenient for sightseeing. It is a very good hotel in the area with good facilities, but it is a bit expensive
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. Don't forget to find a sunset cruise to watch the sunset, which is the highlight of the hotel on the west side of the island.
Right in the heart of Stone Town, you can go downstairs to the beach. There are fresh coconuts for breakfast, but they are not sweet enough. 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.
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.

The resort is the best. I had an amazing experience here . It was the best vacation I’ve ever had. I enjoyed everything. Definitely coming back again.
We are currently staying at one of the best resorts we have ever visited and we’ve travelled lots! The reception area was welcoming and friendly, especially Abou. The staff are incredibly kind, polite and the friendliest people. The rooms are beautiful and well equipped. We are in room 208, which has a gorgeous view of the sea. Lovely gestures from the cleaning team, with beds turned in every night...

The Pools was emaculate clean the Entertainment was a great verity and very entertaining World Class. Really 5 Star.

**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. Nestled along the breathtaking coastline, this resort is a paradise that offers the perfect blend of luxury, relaxation, and adventure.

Zanzibar, Shangani Street, Stone Town 🧭 Map
excellent choices
beautiful beach
very good service
LOVED the view from my room.
Chriss at the front desk was helpful in finding me Dr Juma to attend to my toe injury. Thank you, Chriss.
The BEST hotel in stone town! The staff make you feel at home. This hotel is the true definition of “home away from home!” Can’t wait to be back!
Very nice staff. Great food and rooms were nice. I liked the hotel was right off the beach.
This hotel is extraordinarily beautiful and sits right on the ocean. We stayed here for 2 nights after a safari in Tanzania and loved every moment. The ambience is reminiscent of fairy tales from 1000 and one night, magical. The staff was super friendly, especially Chriss was very nice and courteous. He gave us lots of tips for Stone Town and also of a cultural nature. The breakfast is great, the selection...
Beautiful family hotel. I came here to thank their staff member Rabia. She checked all of us in and every time we had a question she was more than happy to answer. The guy who took our duffel bags with a big smile up and down the stairs really knows what customer service is. We had 3 rooms with beach view. Rooms were clean and spacious. Breakfast was nice. Some of the tea cups had old tea stains but...
They have the most wonderful kind and warm people working there. They did everything they could to make our stay wonderfull. Always with a smile and a hi - is there anything I can do for you? Calm and relaxing with great views.

Zanzibar, Kama PO BOX 3663 🧭 Map
Very good hotel, good environment, good service, a small beach, clean swimming pool. We booked a one-price package with three meals included, and the food was very good and it felt very worthwhile.
Zanzi Resort is the best hotel experience. Love the late breakfast until 12 in the room in front of our private pool. The breakfast is super awesome and I would argue that it is better than most top breakfasts in the Nordics - even the ones that win breakfast awards. Love the fact that they don't have a room service fee and you can buy stuff for the villa at any time. Private place and very...
Wonderful place that exceeded expectations! Really professional and good service with proud, skilled and attentive staff. Wonderful exotic surroundings. Personalised, romantic, familiar and very private. Amazing decor and wonderful villas. The food has been beyond expectations and varied greatly. Can highly recommend Zanzi resort!
The location was a combination of beach and jungle. The room was excellent, comfortable and clean. It had a bedroom plus a living room and you could exit both onto the private garden which led down to the beach. We also had a pool. The room was cleaned daily and water, etc updated. The grounds were lovely and paths kept clean of leaves etc. Finally, the staff were brilliant. I am unable to name...
This place is a Paradise in Paradise. We were accommodated in the Superior Garden Villa which was perfectly decorated for its setting and came with its own plunge pool . The resort is set in a lush forest bordered by the warm Indian Ocean . The amazing jetty takes you well into the sea for amazing sunset views and cocktails. The daily changing lunch and dinner menus ensured that no meals were repeated...
Staying at Zanzi Resort does not feel like staying in a hotel, but being hosted by friends. Wonderfully kept lush tropical gardens, lots of privacy, very friendly staff that makes you feel welcome from the first moment ... and an excellent and varied cuisine, which exceeded our expectations. We loved our stay from the moment we arrived! Not the best place to enjoy swimming in the sea, - but a good...

Zanzibar, Malawi Road 🧭 Map
People were so welcoming, the room was spotless clean and the breakfast was amazing.
There is no beach. Dining options limited
Not enough lighting on the walkways
Pros: Beautiful grounds and resort overall. Very esthetically pleasing to the eyes. The rooms were clean.
Cons: Review for hotel verde….
For the price of the resort there’s a few things that did not sit well with us…
1. Forced to participate in gala’s/food buffets for the holidays (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve). This is not advertised, you are emailed about 1 week prior to arrival...
The food was excellent at this property. Chef Livingston prepared great food full of flavor. You could tell that he enjoyed his job. The property was very clean and the staff were very personable. I really appreciated the hotel’s efforts to sustainability.
I visited zanzibar for business and this property is ideal for leisure and business. I stayed 2 nights rooms are clean, staff are friendly.
The hotel staff were brilliant and we loved the hotel’s real commitment to sustainability. Meals (outside of breakfast) were not as good as expected and the hotel’s zero alcohol policy needs to be much more widely advertised rather than just a footnote

We loved the atmosphere and location
Very helpful personnel
Special thanks to Said, Guest Relation Manager and we loved the barman of the pool bar Mohamed Ali, always smiling and really running to offer his service
Generally we enjoyed our stay
The hotel is beautiful, looking exactly like the photos. They indulged us in a lovely Valentine's Day dinner with great entertainment. You should also try their spa as it is relaxing.

Ngalawa Hotel and Resort
Zanzibar, P.O.Box 4706 🧭 Map
I like it it's so wonderfully hotel i never seen b4
The place is really nice, but noisy and at some point especially from 3pm as there several sports activities around the beach area. The beach is really dirty and not taken care of.
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.
The hotel is nice, the rooms are very big and spacious, clean and the service is amazing. The staff were so nice and helpful always.
I highly recomend this place.
Its a very nice place to go, it is good looking with very cool environment.

I am really glad that I chose this hotel for stay for 3 day from 18/06 until 21/06 but really the room and the staff and the view very amazing I love the staff because it’s very friendly with us every day have music at dinner it was very amazing to explore the culture music of zanjabar if I visit again I will choose this hotel
One thing I love about them is my last day there was a payment left for...
Great and authentic hotel along the west coast of Zanzibar. Nice rooms, both garden rooms and junior suits very nice. Service was great. Really nice bartenders/waiters. Exceptional front desk lady (forgot her name). Very efficient and welcoming resort manager (South African national). However, few notes. Don’t come here if you’re after a resort vibe, a la minute American style butler service, hotel...
Lovely staff, very nice rooms and good restaurant. I recommend it for a few days as a nice break to rest with gorgeous views and sunsets.
It is a pretty neat lodge with a dynamic staff and great service. I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the suburbs while visiting Zanzibar. The only downer was the road to the lodge. Hotels in the neighborhood should put together funds to fix the bizillion potholes.
This please was very relaxing and the views were breathtakingly beautiful.
The staff were amazing and very friendly, helpful and understanding. Probably one of the best guests service I’ve ever experienced. The rooms were clean and they actually do housekeeping service twice a day.
The food was delicious and portions were good , I don’t know why though most of the people said that their food portions...
First time and day in Zanzibar? And guess what ? Its the most beautiful lodge that i ever seen , we booked twoo bedroom villa , and we are shocked wow wow everything is speechless, please dont miss the chance to stay here , 5 stars for the stufffff specially happiness ! Thank you

Zanzibar, Malawi Road, 255, Zanzibar Town, Tanzania 🧭 Map
I stayed at Mtoni Marine for a combined period of 10 weeks, 3 years ago. The food was great, staff very friendly and helpful, nice pool, location close to stone town yet peaceful. Truly memorable experience.
Good hotel. The staff is very helpful - got a free upgrade, make sure to ask. The food was also very good, and service was fast. Only problem is they didn't have a restaurant that was open 24 hours, so when it got really late we had to order food from outside!
Amazing place it's just crazy should totally go there!
Try the pizza's ... and stay away from waiding in the sea water!!
