"O pessoal do hotel é maravilhoso, me ajudou em vários temos que eram fora do escopo da minha estadia no hotel. Conseguiram um transporte para o hotel, me conseguiram outro hotel e as meninas que trabalham lá são ótimas. Os quartos são lindos, com decoração africana e muito limpos. O restaurante tem muitas opções de comida, com preços excelentes. A piscina estava muito limpa e boa. Uns 7 minutos andando da praia. "

"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...

"I’m happy to strongly recommend Terry’s Villa to anyone traveling to Nungwi. I stayed there with my family, and we had a spectacular experience from start to finish.
The villa itself was clean, spacious, and very comfortable — especially appreciated after long days exploring Zanzibar’s beautiful beaches. Although the villa is located a few minutes from the beach, it’s still within easy walking distance, which made getting around very convenient.
A special mention goes to the manager, Shivji, who...

"I had an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience with this hotel owner. We paid $2,700 for what was clearly sold to us as a 3-day tour, but after payment it was suddenly reduced to only 2 days with no proper explanation or refund.
To make matters worse, we were left at the airport without any transportation arranged, despite this being part of what was discussed. Since then, the owner has ignored our messages and refused to respond or take responsibility.
This felt unprofessional,...

"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"

"During a recent break from a business trip in Dar Es Salaam, I decided to pop over to Zanzibar and spend two nights at the Kendwa Rocks Hotel. The resort is expansive and features an impressive variety of amenities and activities to keep you busy, making it a great choice for anyone looking for a dynamic beach vacation.It is worth noting for incoming guests that the property appears to be undergoing some massive renovations right now. Consequently, it is currently not in its peak aesthetic condition, and there are a few construction-related detours required just to get from one side of the property to the other.Despite the ongoing work and the minor navigation hurdles, the hotel serves as an excellent oasis to disconnect and lose yourself from the outside world for a few days. The disruptions are easily overshadowed by the hospitality. The staff members were each incredible—always friendly, helpful, and eager to ensure a great experience. Their exceptional service truly made a lasting impression. I thoroughly enjoyed my time winding down here, and if my travels ever bring me back to Zanzibar, I will absolutely book another stay at this hotel."
"Little sanctuary with direct beach access and sunrise facing pool. Beautiful spacious rooms with character. Staff are the best, super kind and accommodating. Thank you for checking me in late night and open reception for check out/bag drop early morning. Can highly recommend."
"All meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner had extensive selection for all tastes and needs. All excellently, prepared fresh and delicious. We were fortunate to have an upgrade to a large 61m ocean view suite which was extremely comfortable. All staff were extremely helpful and with big smiles. First time we have stayed at this chain of resorts and best we have experienced."
"I would wholeheartedly return to Zanzibar and stay at this property again. The staff were exceptional, breakfast was excellent, and the overall atmosphere was truly impressive. My only reservation concerns the privacy of the villa pools. They are overlooked by the surrounding area, and on occasion, individuals could be seen walking along the perimeter. It was unclear whether these were hotel staff or local fishermen. This is a minor point in an otherwise outstanding experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend this property."
"On it's own away from the outside area, this is an excellent property.
The beach can be accessed by others but that is not an issue and the beach traders are not intrusive.
Shopping, dining, leasure and activities all catered for on site but trips out can also be organised from within the complex.
But the the thing that makes this place are the staff, from the gardening team to head chef, each and every one was courteous, helpful and happy.
Well done staff you make this place."
Hotel Riu Palace Swahili - All Inclusive - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"Clean room brilliant room care and cleaning well maintained hotel very beutiful beach views and clean well maintained pools. Room service can be a little slow and food a little repetitive but overall very good experience."
"The best boutique hotel in Zinzibar. The property was super clean and looked after. Amazing beach and super friendly staff. We had wonderful family holiday."
"Overall the Zuri was outstanding- we could not fault anything. We’re not buffet fans - however the quality, choice and freshness of each buffet was exceptional. There were also other dining options - the al a carte restaurant is super and we enjoyed an amazing beach BBQ. You will not be disappointed with the food. The resort was well laid out meaning the villas are very private. The villas themselves are gorgeous and very comfortable- inclusive of an air conditioning system for the bed - which we’ve never seen before and was appreciated. The cleaning and turn down was to a very high standard. The beach is amazing as are the sunsets and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening entertainment provided at sunset. The highlight was the pool - it’s great and definitely ranks in our top 3 pools from any resort. It’s a proper pool for swimming and there are plenty of beds and shade so it never felt busy. Finally the staff - wow - friendly, attentive and just brilliant. We were so sad leaving this resort as we enjoyed it so much and we hope to return one day."
If you're interested in something a little quirkier than the traditional hotel experience, a stay at a bed and breakfast might be the perfect option for your holiday. When you want to explore some top attractions, Kendwa Beach and Nungwi Beach are worth a stop.
