Boutique Villa Unaweza ★★★★

"Over the past year, I’ve had the chance to visit many resorts in Zanzibar, and Villa Unavewaze truly stands out. The atmosphere is peaceful and beautifully designed, offering a cozy and intimate escape. The staff are exceptionally kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. The food was another highlight – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway or a relaxing break, this place is a perfect choice. Thank you for a wonderful stay – I will definitely be back!"

Zanzibar Bahari Villas ★★★★

"Nice hotel for Mnemba Island tour, very close to the Island and the hotel staff was perfect. I had the best massage ever listening to the ocean and in front of the beach. The food is fantastic and they do not serve alcoholic beverage, despite the fact that I drink, I liked the attitude from the hotel to keep their believe above the tourists. Old hotel that need a lot of maintenance and worst beach in the Island, a lot of seahedges. "

Zanzibar Queen Hotel ★★★★

"Had a wonderful stay at this lovely hotel for 6 days in April. We had the Family Ocean View room which consisted of two very large rooms. Never had such spacious rooms before. Rooms were clean and in good condition. Room service excellent. The quality of food in the restaurant was our biggest surprise. Every day a good choice of food…very delicious. Staff very friendly and helpful. Despite Ramadan and less customers due to raining season the hotel was run smoothly and fully met our expectations."

Zanoceanique Luxury Hotel ★★

Kena Beach Hotel ★★★★

"An excellent property to visit with family & friends. Very friendly management & staff. Very comfortable rooms. The chef also served us with some Indian Butter Chicken which was not on the menu.. but made it specially for my son.. Helped me when I had a problem with the next door hotel with rotten rooms."

Villa Kiva Boutique Hotel ★★★★

"The hospitality of the hotel is amazing. They provided me everything I need, I had to catch a midnight flight and they even prepare me boxes of food just because I had breakfast included in my package. The vibe here is very chill. Highly recommended to have a stay here. Cons: food in general is abit salty. And choice is less"

Zoi Boutique Hotel Zanzibar ★★★

"My 5th time staying at this small boutique hotel at the wonderful Matemwe beach. This probably says it all, love it and the peace and quiet of the place. I come here to dive and the collaboration with Sunshine Marine Hotel and Dive Point dive center makes it a convenient base. A few recent upgrades when the hotel changed owners and name (from Zoi Boutique Hotel) on 1 January 2025 were very timely, including adding ACs. Love the staff, their service mindedness and good spirit and will continue to return if they can keep their room and restaurant prices in check. I got a good deal as I stayed several days, but think high-season prices of USD 200+ is too much for a very nice and big, but relatively basic room. In my view, the restaurant menu could do with a rethink and a little more focus on local dishes, more seafood, vegetarian options and adding some more starters. It is slightly uninspired. Inspiration could be drawn from neighbouring hotels like Villa Kiva and Zanzibar Sunrise or the hotel next door."

Salama & Mbuyuni Bungalows ★★★

"What a place. I absolutely loved it here. I also loved all the people. All the staff are so friendly and chatted. They are very helpful and made are stay warm and welcoming. Paco is a diamond. Great company, works very hard and has built what I can only describe as paradise. The place is great value for money. All the food and drink is very reasonable. It’s about a 5 minute walk to Matamwe beach, where you can find alternative restaurants if you want to."

Marafiki Beach Hotel & Spa ★★★

"We had the opportunity to spend 4 nights at the resort. Beautiful accommodations!! Our meals were included which were delicious. Friendly staff!"
