Fruit & Spice Wellness Resort Zanzibar

"Good location but road in last mile to hotel."

Amani Boutique Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

"We came here for 4 nights after climbing Kilimanjaro and it was the perfect place to relax and recover. The property is super well maintained, with a private beach area and pool and our room was spacious and beautiful. The staff really goes out of their way to make you feel welcomed. Every day they would bring fruit skewers and cool towels to guests lounging on the beach. The location is a 15-20 minute walk away from the main more noisy part of Paje which was perfect because we could walk there during the day for lunch and then return to the peace and quiet. Dinner alternated between a 4 course menu or a buffet and there were plenty of options. Food was super good too."

The Residence Zanzibar

"The rooms and the beach are very good, but the service is generally worse than other five-star hotels"

Johari Beach Residences, Kizimkazi Zanzibar

"Everything was fine save for the food, not tasty at all!"

Blue Reef Sport & Fishing Lodge and Bungalows

"We have visited the Blue Reef for the fourth time. We absolute love this place. Again it has been a great pleasure. The nicest hotel with the best atmosphere. Nice and clean, great food, fantastic drinks and the best staff !! I am sure we will be back for a 5th round ;-)"

The Loop Beach Resort- Adults Only

"I am so happy I decided on this hotel in Jambiani for my stay in beautiful Zanzibar! Loved every minute of it. The staff was the best, the food was great, the rooms lovely and the overall ambiance made me wanna spend all my time there! Can't wait to go back!"

Mayai Ocean Resort

"We had the pleasure of staying at this charming small resort for the past three days and all I can say is it was THE perfect place to enjoy Zanzibar. Maiya Ocean resort is quite new and the restaurant and grounds are spotless. The food was amazing and so very reasonable especially when you consider the quality and portion size. The vibe at the restaurant and lounge area is just what I hoped for. Fresh, stylish, comfortable and there are games and puzzles and such to while away the afternoons. Jazz plays at breakfast and there is great music gently playing in the background the rest of the day. The pools are warm and clean. The rooms are basic but spotless and the service is beyond measure. Everyone is friendly and polite and not remotely pushy at all. Honestly I could not have asked for a better place to unwind after two weeks in safari. It’s a lovely and safe stroll up to the busier area around Paje but if you don’t want the typical all inclusive resort feel, I can’t recommend this gem enough. Oh and the price point is amazing!!"

Paje by Night

"I didn't stay at Paje by night but I came for the yoga classes. I had a weekly pass and attended at least one class every day. Palma is a great teacher, after a few sessions I had a good understanding of the ashtanga yoga, and she shared some videos and a pdf booklet of the postures to continue the practice when back home. She was always open to adapt the class to the needs or wishes of those who attended it. I liked the setting of the yoga studio as well, covered but still having the feeling of being outside and well ventilated. I recommend the class to those looking for a relaxing holiday in Paje. "

Sahari Zanzibar

"We stayed at the Sahari Hotel for the best part of three weeks. We absolutely loved our stay, so much so, it was very sad to leave. The location is perfect, close enough to Paje to visit, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of the beach. The room was stunning, with a big and comfortable bed. The staff came in every day to freshen it up and make amazing animal models out of the towels. The staff were fantastic, especially the restaurant staff. We ate there nearly every night as the food was great and the staff were amazing. We would like to make a special mention of Voina and Devis who were great. They made us feel like we were at home. The Saturday night entertainment was brilliant, made even better by the amazing Swahili buffet. Thank you for teaching us to be more polepole in life. Something we will be practicing much more at home. We cannot recommend the Sahari Hotel enough, and we will be back!"
