1. MONKEY MOUNTAIN LODGE

Mtende

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Es war einfach alles super! Man fühlt sich mitten im Dschungel und erlebt die Natur hautnah. Auf unserer Terrasse konnten wir sogar Affen beobachten und nachts Buschbabys sehen – ein wirklich einzigartiges Erlebnis! Der Besitzer und die Mitarbeiter sind super nett, herzlich und hilfsbereit. Auch das Essen im Restaurant war top und hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und können das Monkey Mountain Hotel wirklich von Herzen weiterempfehlen!"

Kizimkazi

"The place is great for a retreat. The lodges are spaceful, with air and view, very unique. In addition, I especially enjoyed the service from the Manager Martin: I had told him I was arriving late and couple sandwiches were waiting at my room so that I wouldn't go to bed with an empty stomach. And I asked him to organize for me a fishing party which he did fantastically and for a very reasonable price. I went early morning an hour out from the coast fishing Tuna with good and experienced guys....

L’ambiance est apaisante, proche de la nature, et tout est pensé pour se sentir privilégié. Le personnel est remarquable : attentif, accueillant et toujours aux petits soins, mais jamais envahissant.

Ndame Paje Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very good"

The Sands Beach Resort Zanzibar

8/10 Good

"Tous les personnels sont gentils et la plage est à couper le souffle avec la vue magnifique."

Mayai Ocean Resort

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful and relaxing experience. Our room was exquisite with a balcony overlooking the ocean, a large siting room and a comfortable bed. The pools were perfect after a swim in the Indian Ocean. However, the most enjoyable part of our experience was our interactions with the staff. They were friendly and approachable. Needless to say, we enjoyed our stay immensely."

Aluna Paje

10/10 Excellent

"We .loved the hotel. Everyone was so welcoming……. We are an older couple and were treated with the utmost respect. The room is lovely so spacious and had a wrap around balcony. The bed was very comfortable and we could even sleep with all the doors open. We ate at the restaurant for two nights out of three and the meals were lovely. Staff was so helpful every single one of them. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. Also the location was 10 out of 10. You could walk wherever you like."

Kwanza Resort By SUNRISE

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you for Abdul from restaurant, room cleaner, reception team, restaurant team, pool team, kitchen all was amazing"

Blue Ocean Resort & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Family friendly, delicious food, amazing staff, location was convenient, and the view was astonishing."

Treetop by Eight Continents, Zanzibar

10/10 Excellent

"Treetop by Eight Continents Zanzibar exceeded all our expectations. It is an excellent choice for solo travellers, couples and families, and in my opinion, this resort is seriously underrated. From the moment we stepped onto the hotel premises, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. Everyone was friendly, kind and attentive throughout our stay. A special thank you to Ally, who helped my wife organise a beautiful surprise dinner for us by the beach. It was an unforgettable experience and showed just how far the staff are willing to go to make their guests feel special. The entire hotel was extremely clean and well maintained, and the food was absolutely amazing. The resort is also very family-friendly, with a dedicated kids’ zone to keep children entertained while parents relax and enjoy their holiday. The prices were surprisingly affordable for the quality of the accommodation, service and overall experience. The photographs online do not do this place justice at all. Seeing the hotel in person was mind-blowing—it was even more beautiful and impressive than the pictures suggested. Treetop by Eight Continents Zanzibar truly deserves a five-star rating. We had an incredible stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Zanzibar."

Fruit & Spice Wellness Resort Zanzibar

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing! Very quiet during late July, but the staff were so lovely. Food was great, pool, rooms everything just great. Just an absolutely perfect place. Big shout out to the lovely Venson."

The Residence Zanzibar
