The Restaurant, Room, Gardener and Manager were helpful and friendly and tried their best with what they had to work with. The room was nice with direct access to the pool. ● no water on two occasions ● restaurant did not have all the food that was listed on the menu ● bar did not have liquor to make drinks tgat was listed on the menu ● owner and staff's four year old children (2) were in the pool without supervision. I felt I was responsible/lifeguard if something happened - that's just me.

We added a quick stay here before our safari and we wished we had stayed longer at Zanzibar Queen. The pool and grounds were very nice. For the beach they provided water shoes (which are needed) but best to bring your own. The manager was exceptionally nice. We were initially concerned having just one restaurant but the menu was good and we were totally happy. Some meals were not part of our package but additional meals and drinks were reasonably priced so we never felt taken advantage of. We will certainly come back.

Old Fort
The Darajani Baazari gathers the most impressive non-beach features of Zanzibar. It is still the place where locals buy groceries and thus present much of their way of living. As unsanitary as it looks, the market is full of fishes and meat conserved far from any Western hygiene standard and makes tourists hope restaurants acquire their products elsewhere. It is usual to face scenes like the one in this photograph. #market #colorful See this photo in https://flic.kr/p/onz4Qz Gallery: www.flickr.com/ddfcarvalho
