"Everything great, hotel, staff, food."
Tembo B&B Apartments
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing hotel right on the beach. The pools are great and the food and service at restaurant are spectacular. Highly recommend!! "
Golden Tulip Zanzibar Airport
10/10 Excellent
"Near the airport. Very comfortable beds and beautiful room. Nice breakfast and great personnel. Being with kids, we preferred staying in this nice location instead of Stone Town which
is very crowded and then having a walking tour to Stone Town. Would come again."
Ycona Luxury Resort
10/10 Excellent
"I had a wonderful stay at Ycona Resort. From the moment we arrived, the staff attended to our every need and made us feel truly cared for. The manager, Claudia, along with Omar, were especially outstanding—both were incredibly helpful in facilitating all of our plans and were always flexible and accommodating. They even helped arrange romantic activities on-site, which made our stay extra special.
The villas were spotless and cleaned daily, which added greatly to our comfort. This ended up being one of my favorite places I’ve ever stayed, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Zanzibar. Anything that wasn’t readily available at the resort was seamlessly arranged by bringing someone in from town, making it feel like there was almost no need to leave the property at all.
An unforgettable experience from start to finish."
Treetop by Eight Continents, Zanzibar
10/10 Excellent
"Very welcoming and friendly staff; restaurant went out of their way to accommodate our dietary restrictions.
The property is kept very clean and well staffed.
If you want a break from the crowded touristy areas of Zanzibar; I highly recommend Treetop.
Just be aware that off property it’s a distance to find restaurants or proper markets. But Treetop is so good for a quiet restful stay in Zanzibar. It’s also very close to Jozani Forest which is a major attraction for nature and wildlife "
