"Chuini was great to stay! We will recommend it hands down to anyone visiting Zanzibar for the first time as long as they are okay stay a few miles away in the suburbs!!"

"This is an incredibly beautiful property with an amazing staff. It's a slice of paradise. "

"Beautiful oasis of calm and relaxation! "

"We stayed here for 7 nights and paid £1102 for this, which was not good value for money. The staff are all incredibly friendly and amenable. However, the bungalows are tired and run-down, the door handle was nearly coming off to our room, the taps are severely lime-scaled and wall switches with holes in them? We had to ask for hand soap, toilet roll and we had to keep asking for a towel. The towels and bedding were stained. There is no mattress protector. The breakfast was awful; stale cereal...

"The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. The overall service was excellent. This is a wonderful place to relax - it may not be 5 star luxury but it is authentic African hospitality - just what we had hoped for."

"Hotel was closed for renovations and they didn’t inform us before we arrived. We had to look for an alternative place to stay at night and Expedia was not helpful either with finding another hotel. I would never recommend this place because of the lack of communication and inconvenience caused! "

"This is such a special place! We only stayed 2 nights but had an amazing time. The food is delicious and service was perfect (thank you to Juma and Frank specifically)."

"Right on the beach! Our room had a view of the ocean, too. It wasn't too busy when we were there so they upgraded us to a deluxe room! Very nice people work here! The rooms are cozy with all the amenities and the water is SO hot, which was a lovely perk because not many places have such hot showers on the island. We were welcomed very graciously! They offer a variety of food at their restaurant and they have a nice bar on the beach, as well. The lounge area on the beach was particularly my...

"The hotel was good choice as we had renter car and could go everywhere on the island. It was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The ocean was not the best beach in zanzibar but this is not the hotels fault. "

"An experience beyond compare. The staff, the location, the villas, the bliss of it all. If you are wanting an exclusive lodge, this is the answer to a stress free, unwinding break. Enjoy!"

"Nice quiet hotel with very friendly and responsive staff. "

"WOW just wow!!!! We loved our stay at this small boutique hotel. Beautiful and wonderful staff. We traveled with our 1.5 year son and it was perfect. We will recommend it to all who are looking for a slice of paradise. Good food, amazing ice cream and smoothies nice decorated and clean rooms/bungalows, stunning pool area, helpfull staff my husband went on a fishing trip planned by staff. Not much to do in the area but it is close to more lively Paje. But to be honest we loved hanging on the sun...

"We stayed 8 nights, it was amazing, breakfast very tasty, the rooms are clean, the beach is amazing, the staff service is very kind and the people are kind and make you feel at home, we just wanted to continue it was amazing "

"Очень непорядочные хозяева !!!! Номер был оплачен заранее и связь с хозяйкой держал за 2 суток до приезда и заказ трансфер через нее !!!! Она все подтвердила и написала что будет ждать водитель в аэропорту и номер для нас готовы и подтверждены !!!! но по итогу нас никто не встретил, а когда мы приехали в ее отель поздно ночью - нас никто не ждал и все номера были заняты .... ПРИШЛОСЬ САМОСТОЯТЕЛЬНО ночью искать себе жилье......"

"We had a very relaxing stay for a week at twisted palms. They owners and staff were amazing! Very attentive and friendly. The food was very good. We tried the Bellevue down the way one night. Compared to the twisted palms, the food was overpriced and very small portions. We had a beachfront bungalow and it was nice being right up front to hear and see the ocean. Very nice pool also. Made friends there that we will stay in touch with."

"Simply a very smart, friendly and well appointed hotel with big clean and cool rooms. Lovely pool and bar area with easy access to shops, cafes, restaurants and all the sites."
