Hotels with pool in Zanzibar City

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

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

Amazingly beautiful!! Rooms could be better taken care of. Very , very nice and helpful people! Did I mention I love the people there?

The furniture is nice, but general condition of the room is quite average, especially bathrooms. I would say it needs some renovation, at least some touches must be done that it looks tidier

Breakfast was very good and had a lot to choose from the only thing that was missing was zanzibar cultural food. Location was also perfect and very near to the airport

We were brought to this hotel from the airport because our flight was cancelled. So, one of the pluses - it’s close to the airport

They have a small pool on the rooftop and a gym on the ground floor plus a badminton court. Location is very convenient smack center of stone town and stone throw away from many of the highlights and landmarks

Maru Maru was a great find for our group trip to Stone Town. The location was great. We enjoyed the roof top restaurant. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend and stay there again.

I booked this hotel for my Mother while she was in Zanzibar. The room was large and very clean. The restaurant offered delectable dishes. When she arrived there was some confusion with the booking

We had a lovely one night stay at Marumaru. The double room was above our expectation. We got to check in an hour early. The room was very clean and the bathroom was very modern and clean as well

The front desk was so kind and helpful to my Mom and made her arrival a pleasure

The hotel management as well as the waitresses and employees, such as Hilda, are all incredibly nice, courteous and helpful. I feel very well taken care of. The drinks are all delicious and are prepared quickly

They are incredibly warm and hospitable people, nothing was ever an issue; the true meaning of Hakuna Matata (a saying you’ll hear quite a lot at at Zanzi!) On the note of food, every dish we had was completely faultless and absolutely delicious

It was a beautiful experience. Moreover the staffs were totally friendly ، honest and they enjoyed professional behavior . definitely that I would repeat the trip to the resort if I traveled again to Zanzibar.

It is clear the chef has invested a lot of time and effort in to developing the menus. On a final note, I would highly recommend the ocean access villa

Beautiful petite resort - just 13 villas. Great staff. Lovely food. Fabulous retreat 45 minutes north of Stone Town

Fabulous villa with private pool and access to ocean. Great food. Lovely staff. Beautiful gardens. Basically luxury without the 4 seasons faff.

A genuine wow resort. The rooms are stunning, spacious and generally delightful and the kitchen is great.

Upon bringing this to the Resort Managers attention, her reply was simply," we did not put in a fridge because we wanted to save energy. And she will inform house keeping to replace our room towels

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

Great view of the ocean, not ideal to go and tan on the beach, but next to the pool and bar is great

The staff was very accommodating, the resort is absolutely stunning, and there is lots to do on the property. The receptionist Carol is fantastic and I will definitely be coming back here

They made it first time in Zanzibar very memorable

The reason it's a 4 and not a five is because of the same breakfast menu everyday and the beach which is not great to swim in because of the mud like sand in the water. Lunch and Dinner on the other hand are great

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

Dominica, Happiness, Adventina and a whole host of other capable servers, hostesses, and food preparers met our every need. I have attached 4 pictures showing a portion of the buffet offers

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

The other is the main hotel and dining/bar area opened in 2015. Fauzi then accompanied us to our suite and provided some of his restaurant and activity recommendations for our stay

We were then given a quick tour of the hotel property, by Concierge Fauzi, which is in two buildings. One is the historic residence of one of the Omani sultans

Our first impressions of the suite were very good. We have stayed in a number of Park Hyatt's and this property compared well with others around the world

Very beautiful resort with two infinite pools and very good food. The rooms are big and the views are amazing. There is also a local tour guides that you can book within the hotel

Beautiful pool area, nice pier with the opportunity to sit ouside or step into the Ocean Large variety of sporting activities Great Breakfast and Diner Decent Garden, very clean and well maintained

Such a beautiful place, with gorgeous buildings and decor, two stunning infinity swimming pools, beach access and a great ocean view

The downside of the hotel is that the private beach that the hotel has is a little bit far and the water is not so great, but the two beautiful pools compensate

Surrounded by breathtaking views. We were full board and there was not 1 meal we could say anything negative about. We are already booking a family vacation to the hotel for 2024. I would highly recommend this hotel

We stayed at the hotel for a work conference. The room was clean, neat, and very well maintained during my stay. The staff went above and beyond to be friendly and helpful. The property is simply amazing

The location it's great! The breakfast at the main hotel it's good and diverse! The service it's top as well. The room is really spacious, but might need a bit of refreshing

Also I didn’t get any sort of tour of the main hotel, just had to figure it out on my own. Some of the reviews say there is a rooftop pool- this is news to me as no one told me about it

(Top part the balcony I couldn't enjoy it because of the rain but I think it would be great on a sunny day

The receptionist had me walking back and forth up 3 flights of stairs multiple times because he never told me where the actual b&b was- instead, he pointed across the street where there was yet another Tembo building (ended up NOT being the one I was staying in)

This is for the b&b, which is a 3 minute walk from the main hotel. The b&b doesn’t have a sign, so finding it in the dark is confusing if you’re just there for one night. Check in process was an absolute nightmare

Even though you’re able to use the facilities of main hotel, it’s still a 3 minute walk down the main roads, so you def have to cover up if you want to swim

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...

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

But do come to this place if you’re looking for a truly authentic African experience and immerse in the local culture of Zanzibar, enjoying peace during your holidays with a book, chilling in the Zanzibar authentic vibe

Very efficient and welcoming resort manager (South African national). Don’t come here if you’re after a resort vibe, a la minute American style butler service, hotel rooms a la Accor hotel group, animation teams, etc

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

Great and authentic hotel along the west coast of Zanzibar. Nice rooms, both garden rooms and junior suits very nice. Really nice bartenders/waiters. Exceptional front desk lady (forgot her name)

A calm and quite place near to sea side. Absolutely clean and healthy environment with delicious food and free room service facilities. Friendly staffs and a team of well trained people who always love to offer help.

Pros: close to the airport, customer service is impeccable, place is surprisingly clean, seaside view is mesmerizing. Cons: no alcohol, short menu, no alcohol... NO ALCOHOL. Would definitely recommend for a short stay.

No, not a 5-star luxury resort, but a cozy, clean place to hang your hat while you tour and explore. Great and attentive staff. Cheap price and attentive staff. About 20 minutes from airport, longer with traffic.

The staff are very professional and welcoming. The hotel is extremely neat and even smells fresh. The rooms are spacious and have all amenities including a fully functional AC. Above all the price is affordable

Beautiful rooms, friendly service, good breakfast, great location, complete with a rooftop view of Stone Town and a swimming pool

A chic hotel in an old style, there is a swimming pool, a huge plus. After the stuffy city, go straight to it

The Dhow Palace was very comfortable and clean and in a great spot set away from the port and some of the tourist hotspots where the guys will try and hustle you to go on a tour

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

Fantastic interior. Takes you back 120 years for sure. Very atmospheric. But the food in the restaurant is not great, especially the pizza. Need to work on that.

Our room was relatively small I guess depends on prices. Go see it ! Team in very nice and friendly. Great affordable stay at stone town Zanzibar

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

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

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

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

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

Some of the tea cups had old tea stains but overall everything was well kept and staff was courteous

Excellent location, lovely and friendly staff with professional attitude. Amazing food on rooftop restaurant. Swimming pool was refreshing and the breakfast has a lot of options

Decent price and nice hotel. Breakfast was good but busy and not enough seating. For physically impaired... the list is not functional. Pool is under construction.

It’s also a short walk away from the Forodhani Park (night food market) and Darajani souq if you fancy some shopping. Thanks for the fantastic service. The only suggestion I would have is providing an iron in the room!

Very friendly and helpful staff who took care of us during our stay. They accommodated our needs to the best of their abilities and provided consistent excellent customer service

This hotel is in a great, convenient location if you wish to be located next to the beach where you can go on the small boats for cruises and Stone Town shops, cafes and markets

Golden Tulip Stone Town Boutique hotel opposite ferry terminal is ideas choice for conferences and they offer the largest and most well-equipped conference hall in the area

the only other slight issue was that there was no alcohol served at this hotel. It wasn't really a big deal as there is a bar right next door but being able to have a glass of wine with dinner would have made it better

I was sad to leave at the end of my stay

The staff and location are great. The room has a nice but historic decor. However, the building is very old and smells musty. Had to buy incense for the room to smell better.

It was a really lovely place and the staff were very helpful and friendly but there was no lift and we were on the top floor. And also the food in the restaurant for lunch and dinner was average at best

Pros Great location Lovey view of the beach Allowed late checkout (but the checkout time is a little early at 10am!) Large selection at breakfast Beautiful infinity pool and a lot of different seating areas Cleaning staff were nice Cons Staff were slow

Room small and dark and right by the pool but luckily it was low season so it wasn’t too noisy Check in was quick but a bit all over the place Bathroom could have been cleaner Verdict I probably would not stay again

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.

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 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

I went out if season so the hotel was quiet. Rooms are serviced daily and amenities are good. Hotel is on the beach and the tide goes far out each day but comes right up to the hotel in the afternoons

Lovely authentic good sized rooms and all staff are attentive and polite

Visiting this hotel for many years but never saw it in that bad condition. Dirty, lots of things broken, absolutely dirty beach, no love, no care somehow. All somehow tasted very similar and over spiced

Third is they need to work on the hygiene, looks like my room wasn't cleaned quite well and could see some insects. Besides that, it's a good hotel with a beautiful sea view and great customer service

This is a good hotel BUT, the management needs to work on a few issues. One of them is water, I got disappointed when I couldn't shower in the morning because there was a water issue in my room

The restaurant up top offered great food with good service and the accompanying view was breathtaking! Also let us keep our luggage there while after we checked out and were busy during the day doing activities

Good location (closer to the center), very safe at night. Friendly and very helpful staffs. There were always check that we did not need anything. It was very nice of them and it made me feel more comfortable

Food was very good, we spent a lot of time on the rooftop (breakfast, having snacks and drinks late afternoon) and we were never disappointed. I will recommend this place for sure

Beautiful hotel in the middle of Stone Town! Very good location. Rooms were kept clean and comfortable, beds came with mosquito netting

Cleanliness is fine but room could be refresh as they looks a little bit outdated

thank you to all the staff for the amazing experience I had at your property

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

The rooms are comfortable, with air conditioning, hot water and bathrobes

The room had a balcony and a view of the embankment. The hotel and rooms are made in the old colonial style. The room is clean, in the evening, if desired, they treated for mosquitoes. Excellent pool in the courtyard

Situated in the heart of Stone Town, it offered easy access to all the historical and cultural treasures this enchanting place has to offer. Upon entering Mizingani, I was captivated by its beautiful furnishings

Every day the room was cleaned, and in the evening they came in to close the window shutters and straighten the canopy. In the neighboring building, it seems, they set up a rehearsal point, so the room was not quiet

One of the highlights of my stay was waking up to stunning views of the Indian Ocean from my room. The gentle sea breeze and the sound of waves crashing against the shore provided a soothing and serene ambiance

The attention to detail was evident, and it truly felt like a step back in time to the early days of the Zanzibari monarchy. One aspect that stood out during my stay was how well maintained the property was

Very decent place. Everything as it should be. I will recommend to my friends. Since yesterday evening we will be here for two more nights. Many thanks to the owner of the hotel. I wish you success!
