Golden Tulip Zanzibar Resort ★★★★

📍 4087 BEIT, West

"It's average, opened by Indians, the hotel doesn't sell alcohol, and most of the food is curry. The room is old"

Chuini Zanzibar Lodge by Newmark
8.2 (54 reviews)

Chuini Zanzibar Lodge by Newmark ★★★★

📍 Chuini Palace Ruins, Bububu, West

"This was my third visit to Chuini ZNZ Lodge. I love it here. If you are looking for relaxation and to be away from the hot spot tourist areas, this is for you. There's only 11 villas/bungalows and they are spaced out over the property. The setting of the ruins is magical and the sun sets directly in front of the lodge every evening. The team headed by Suhaila, the manager, are what makes your stay so special. Every team member is warm and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Chuini is not located in the main tourist hot spots, but it's easy to take a day trip to other parts of the island. If you are coming to ZNZ to party every night, Chuini may be too quiet for you and you should head north. The food is delicious with plenty of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We stayed for 12 nights and ate out only once. Fantastic massage available on site too. Some of the reviews mention silly things like lizards and insects in the rooms. That's standard when travelling in tropical countries and they are totally harmless. This is a 4 star hotel, so don't go with 5 star expectations. It's rustic, chic and boutique."

Hotel Verde Zanzibar - Azam Luxury Resort and Spa - Dry Hotel
8.5 (40 reviews)

Hotel Verde Zanzibar - Azam Luxury Resort and Spa - Dry Hotel ★★★★★

📍 V667+H3, Malawi Rd, Zanzibar, West

"Was a great place with very clean environment"

Ngalawa Hotel & Resort
7.0 (15 reviews)

Ngalawa Hotel & Resort ★★★★

📍 94 Ngalawa Street Urban West A, West

"For starters the room that I had taken was the honeymoon suite which was quite big but the ac had issues and there was a water issue as well. These things were fixed but knowing you have a customer coming in, shouldnt these things be checked before hand. Moving on to the breakfast, the food was bland and not nice. I honestly thought that I would love the hotel from what I had heard others experienced, but maybe that was during their prime. I wish Ngalawa all the luck. I do hope you improve your services in the near future."

Chuini Zanzibar Lodge by Newmark ★★★★
"Such a peaceful and charming place! Beautiful small hotel built around old palace ruins, with spacious bungalows, lush gardens, and stunning ocean views. The sunsets from the pool and restaurant are magical. Great food and truly wonderful, service-minded staff. No real beach (you can swim at high tide via a small staircase, but the water had some debris and garbage), so we only enjoyed the lovely pool. So don’t count on beach time or swimming in the ocean while here. Perfect spot for a few days of total relaxation – the massage at the spa was amazing!"

From the moment we arrived, the team went above and beyond to make our stay special. ​The service was flawless, the amenities were top-notch, and the attention to detail exceeded all our expectations. It truly made our celebration unforgettable. If you are looking for a perfect getaway, especially for a special occasion, this is the place to be. We will definitely be back!"

"My stay there was nothing short of magical. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, the fresh seafood dinners were exquisite, and our banda (villa) was the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. If you're looking for a beach getaway that combines stunning natural beauty with genuine relaxation, this is the place. Just remember to wake up early for that sunrise swim- it's unforgettable!"
