"Just to be clear: there is no pool. And the hotel is 5 minutes walking distance from the beach. But the service is 5 stars. And they clean every day, and change the bed and towels every 2 days"

"MINUS 10 STARS!!
Went from bad to worse from the time we arrived.
From having a mess in 1 room since they were building a bed, no toiletries at all as mentioned,
Water was not working properly; lights went off in 1 room and the ac and water not working in another.
Then went in total darkness with no back-up generator available and we were told it happens all the time.
Staff was hard to find even with a 'reception' area.
All around a horrible experience. Plus, we forgot to take 1 item...

"Arrived late and were greeted by staff who even made us a meal despite the late hour. Room was tired, scuffy with stained cushions. Pillows had dried blood and mold stains so needed changing immediately, which was done. Ours was meant to be Delux Garden View, we had a corridor view through front window and a brick wall view through seriously cement stained back window so we didn't open curtains during our time there. The hot water either scalding or freezing, nothing in-between. The WiFi was off...

"Property was ok with good location. Soft furnishings within the complex were dirty and require replacement especially the mattresses on the pool chairs by the pool . . Electricity went off whilst there."

Hotel Riu Palace Swahili – All Inclusive – Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Amazing Experience at RIU Palace Swahili Zanzibar!
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at RIU Palace Swahili Zanzibar for our honeymoon. Everything was absolutely beautiful, from the stunning property and breathtaking ocean views to the excellent service and welcoming atmosphere.
The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help, making us feel special and well taken care of throughout our stay. The food was delicious, the rooms were comfortable and beautiful, and the entire resort was clean, relaxing, and luxurious.
We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay. It was the perfect place to relax, celebrate our love, and create beautiful honeymoon memories that we will cherish forever.
Thank you to the entire RIU Palace Swahili team for making our honeymoon so special and unforgettable. We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a luxurious, romantic, and memorable vacation in Zanzibar.
We would definitely love to come back! ❤️🌴🌊"
"We stayed at The Zanzibari for four nights after a hectic trip to Dar Es Salaam and really enjoyed it. The location is beautiful and private, and we really did get a sense of peace and relaxation.
The staff were really good. Very helpful, respectful and accommodating. Both the welcome and goodbye were pleasant and smooth. Transfers were organised swiftly. We felt well taken care of throughout. Thank you for that. My only comment would be that we found some of the staff to be a little intrusive at times, e.g. one knocked on the door persistently and then came into turn down the beds and spray the room. It would have been nice to be given the time to open the door and then be asked if it was OK to do the work. Another came in without us knowing and surprised us on the balcony. I believe it was to fix the toilet. These are the sorts of things that could (should) be done while guests are out.
The room was nice and spacious, and the view from our balcony was lovely. Such a great way to start and end the day. The garden area had lots of loungers and never felt crowded. Appropriate footwear was provided for guests wanting to wade into the sea, which was very thoughtful.
The restaurant experience was generally OK, though a little inconsistent. We had lunch and dinner - sometimes it was good. At others, it was clear that the food had been sitting for a while before being served. Sometimes, the staff struggled to communicate in English, but they did a good job overall."
"Absolutely first class holiday and resort. Food was exceptionally good, both in the a La Carte restaurants and the buffet, grounds were immaculate, staff were friendly and warm. The pool areas and raised beach were fabulous.
If you had a question or needed help with something, dial 9 and reception staff sorted it without ever needing to leave your room.
Without doubt one of our best holidays ever and we will be going back next year without a doubt.
The only note of caution would relate to disabled or elderly clients, the resort is well advertised as large and sprawling and dotted around a hillside, so walking about for some might be difficult.
We loved with Island and would rate this holiday overall as a 10/10!"
"Really enjoyed our stay here. Fabulous breakfast, lovely rooftop bar with gorgeous views.
It’s a bit off the beaten path so not as touristy. There are still several restaurants within walking distance."
"amazing resort, amazing staff (the nicest i’ve ever encountered) great amenities. i loved my stay here, would definitely come back to another riu in zanzibar in the future!"
"Extraordinarily attentive staff with personable service. We enjoyed the spicy sauce and Flora went out of her way to make a specific batch to take with us. Elias was also friendly and knew when to circle back to us."
"Great resort and amazing beach. Not the most walkable outside of the resort but if you’re looking for a great all inclusive resort with its own beach then Royal is amazing"
