L"endroit correspond à son nom "Promissed land", vraiment magique, même en saison de pluie. Le petit déjeuner est bon et copieux, personnels est très amicales, toujours à l'écoute, les cuisiniers savent s'adapter à nos besoins, produits frais, jamais eu de problèmes de ventre, c'est très important surtout avec les enfants. Les vues paradisiaques, belle piscine, plein endroits pour se poser. Et bien sûr les animaux qui font l'ambiance générale : des chiens, des chats, des singes (Columbus roux et bushbaby). Mercy à Omal qui nous a appris les chansons et les danses locales, merci à Catherine - superbe masseuse! Bref, on a passé des vacances extraordinaire! "Hakuna Matata, baby"

A very relaxing place to stay and recuperate. We had a fantastic sea view to the front and side of the room. That did mean that when the storms came we also had a very wet floor as the front just has mesh panels and no windows (but we were very grateful for the refreshing breeze!) but this was quickly dried up with some towels. Housekeeping available everyday and excellent service. Room had a ceiling and a mosquito net over the bed. As it was hot and humid when we were there it could be quite difficult to sleep at night - not the fault of the hotel, just one of those things. The bathroom shower is not contained so be warned that the floor does get very wet and is slow to drain. The pool was great! Most guests don't seem to use it so it was pretty quiet most days. We loved it when the monkeys would come out and swing around the trees by the pool - it's a mini jungle paradise! Access to the sea is down some steps - the water is lovely and clear. Be aware that during load tied you will likely be approached by locals hiding behind rocks on the beach offering boat tours/taxi service etc. The same tours and services are offered by the hotel for a very competitive price so we preferred to book through Promised Land. Lovely bar and restaurant staff. Lovely food especially the Tanzanian fish curry! We stayed for 10 nights so menu was getting a bit samey but most people stay for much shorter period of time. Beautiful, remote location with lovely people to look after you.

We zijn heel ontgoocheld door deze plek. De staf is heel onverschillig en zelfs arogant. Het eten is niet lekker en het ontbijt laat de wensen over… Het zwembad was smerig en het water was lauw met veel te veel chloor. Het ergste was dat ik een bootuitstap met lunch op de zandbank had geregeld voor de verjaardag van mijn man. Abdul de verantwoordelijke in het hotel voor de uitstappen had mij gegarandeerd dat het fantastisch ging zijn met kreeft en mango en rijst met alles erop en eraan maar het resultaat was pijnlijk. Waar ik zag dat andere mensen effectief alles hadden en met super service en een schipper en kok hadden wij juist een schipper met een slechte uitrusting die ons met veel moeite en vertraging een aangebrande visschotel bracht met brood en sla. Ik voelde mij echt bedrogen door Abdul. Dit alles doet mij besluiten dat ze daar echt niet geven om de kwaliteit van de gasten. De tuin en uitzicht op de zee zijn wel prachtig. Maar daarvoor zou ik niet gaan als de sfeer niet meezit.

Better than expected. Food was good. Service was excellent, every single person was very nice and helpful. Location perfect for quiet relaxation. Rooms vere excellent and very good cleaning. Free kayaking. Whole hotel area was picture perfect and many places to chill and sunbathe. If you have to think of something negative it was that my tummy did not like the food a few times (=diarrhea episode), but what we discussed with other travelers, it happens in every hotel….

First of all, the staff at promised land lodge are exceptionally friendly and helpful, we were asked every day of our 5 day stay if we would like our room cleaned. There is a decent selection of food available on the menu, including options for vegetarians. The location is on the sea front which is stunning, however, with the tide coming in and out, there is no beach as such. You can walk over the rock pools when the tide is out but sandals should be worn as there are sea urchins and other spiky sea creatures in the pools. You can book dolphin tours at the lodge and be picked up from the jetty there which is ideal. The accommodation was ‘rustic’ and simple, there was no kettle or aircon in the room and the power would often cut out. It is a nice place to stay if you enjoy relaxing, but there is not much else to do other than that. We walked about 1.5 miles into the closest ‘village’, however there is not much to see or do there. There are a couple of restaurants on the path leading to promised land lodge. Overall, our stay was not ‘luxury’ but satisfying, although general cleanliness of the surrounding area was not great. It

Se cerchi un tramonto dai colori spettacolari a sud di Zanzibar una delle località migliori dove vederlo è Kizimkazi, conoscevo già il Promised Land Lodge c'ero già stata , qui l'atmosfera è molto rilassante e accogliente, niente lusso, solo natura, animali, panorama ! Abbiamo passato qualche ora in piscina a rilassarci aspettando il Tramonto con un buon aperitivo! ....questo Lodge è ideale per passare qualche giorno a Kizimkazi in assoluto relax per fare l'escursione dei Delfini , il mare è influenzato dalle maree e il Lodge è arroccato, al mare si accede tramite scaletta, con la secca si puo' esplorare la spiaggia sottostante ( consigliate le scarpette da scoglio), diversamente fare il bagno, non è per chi cerca il lusso, ma per viaggiatori easy che badano piu' alla bellezza scenografica del posto che alla location.

Tout d'abord, le lieu invite au relâchement. Le jardin est très beau avec de nombreux hamacs, chaise longue etc... C'est le gros et seul point fort du lieu. Car l'accès à la mer est très compliqué (on est très loin de l'eau turquoise), l'eau de la piscine est trouble, les logements sont sans confort, les draps sont sales... Un soir, alors que ma femme prenait sa douche, elle a senti une présence qui l'observait, à l'extérieur dans un recoin sombre du jardin. Sentiment vous en conviendrait fort désagréable. Puis nous sommes partis manger. Le repas dura environ 1h. A notre retour, nous avons constater, que toutes nos affaires avaient été fouillées et nos sacs volés. Nous avons retrouvés la plupart de nos affaires disséminées dans des chemins sombres partant de l'hôtel. Nous avons perdu 600€ et des affaires de valeur. Le coffre fort avait été emporté. Visiblement ce n'est pas la première fois que ce produit de tels événements dans cet "hôtel". D'après nos renseignements un autre couple de français a été victime de la même chose. A la suite de l'événement. Nous avons perdu toute confiance dans le personnel de l'hôtel. En ne pouvant nous sortir de la tête que le cambriolage de notre chambre n'était possible qu'avec leur complicité. Avec un personnel de sécurité qui a su fermé les yeux au bon moment. Suite à ça, nous avons été trainé dans plusieurs commissariats pour remplir des plaintes que savions déjà qu'elles resteraient lettre mort. Fatigués de tout cela et traumatisés, nous avons écourté notre séjour. Je reproduis ci-dessous un extrait des recommandations envoyé par l'ambassade de France à Zanzibar suite à un appel avec eux concernant notre histoire de vol. "Attention aux vols de documents, de téléphones portables, aux locations de voiture dont le système de verrouillage de sécurité des portières est trafiqué, aux agressions au couteau ou à la machette (parfois les deux en même temps), viols et enlèvements. L’insécurité est galopante… L’alerte terroriste a été levée, mais il faut rester vigilant. Pour les séjours à Zanzibar, il faut éviter la zone JIAMBIANI pour les vols et les intrusions nocturnes pendant le sommeil des touristes…" Après avoir vu de notre propre yeux la situation du pays, ces préconisations ne nous apparaissent pas du tout exagérées.Show less

Para ser justos el hotel está muy bonito, si bien tiene un estilo rastafari, tiene mucho encanto. La Iluminación , decoración, los servicios están muy bien. Ahora bien, ya que es difícil salir del hotel por la noche a cenar te toca quedarte allí. La comida mala y una hora para que te la sirvan La habitación con encanto pero las paredes son de papel se escucha demasiado a los vecinos Y el baño, la ducha es de risa casi no hay agua caliente y el chorro del agua es minino La verdad que lo recomiendo en parte porque tiene mucho encanto pero es mejor que tengas claro a lo que vas.

Très à l'écart, l’hôtel est constitué de bungalows à 1 étage, les confortables chambres vue mer ont une vue mer à 90 degrés. Le restaurant est tenu par un équipe sympathique et très efficace. Les espaces communs sont très agréables quant l’hôtel n'est pas plein.
