1. The Oasis Residence

Jambiani

"All the staff and general manager Mr Kunal were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond their duties. Even the security team made us feel safe and secure. We left our kids for few hours and they made sure they didn't leave the complex and we're kept safe. Joshua, Joe, Kunal, and the all the team in the kitchen catered for all our needs. The location is perfect for quiet stay. The pools are deep but that help d my son to boost his confidence and he was fine swimming. Food at breakfast was...

Top Zanzibar Hotel Reviews

Mizingani Seafront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really beautiful hotel in a great location whether you want to use the ferry or not. Everyone at the hotel was so friendly. They even helped me park my car and offered directions around. The breakfast included an egg/omelette station plus pastries, fresh fruit, pancakes, samosas and hot items. The dining area has a choice of inside with AC or outside with scenic views of the harbour and boats. The room was really spacious, with beautiful original decor and had a charming balcony overlooking the pool. Overall I would highly recommend. There's also an ice cream cafe next door that I didn't get to try."

Hotel Riu Palace Swahili – All Inclusive – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at, although Tuesday’s DJ evening was disappointing. The DJ played a song requested by Israeli guests which, as a supporter of a free Palestine, I personally found upsetting and inappropriate. I noticed many people left after the song, although I cannot speak for their reasons. I would encourage the hotel to be more mindful of music choices and guests’ sensitivities. Aside from this incident, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay."

Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed this holiday. Hotel staff were lovely very helpful, welcoming and friendly. Big shoutout to Frank and Hamad always top tier service, very well mannered hospitable always making sure we’re good and always going the extra mile. Rooms were good and spacious. Lovely beach location in nungwi perfect views great for swimming but do watch out for locals on beach as they will get very defensive when enquiring about pricing for excursions with more than 1 person."

Iberostar Selection Zanzibar – All-Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Where do I even begin?! 😍✨ THE STAFF – Absolutely AMAZING! ❤️ Honestly, some of the friendliest, warmest and most welcoming people we have ever encountered! Every single one of them made our stay extra special. A big shout-out to Robin at the Front Desk for making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Gasper and Miraji, our Go-Kart champions, thank you for the endless rides and all the fun around the compound! Selemani and Andrea from Sports & Beach kept us entertained throughout our stay. Rashid, thank you for getting us moving with those fun pool dance sessions and aqua exercises – you certainly made sure we didn't just eat and relax! 😂💃 And Carlos, thank you for the fantastic Salsa lessons – we loved every minute! Finally, William at Mawe Bar, you certainly made sure our glasses were never empty! 壟 THE ROOMS – WOW! 🛏️ Super clean, beautifully maintained and those views... simply AHH-MAZING! THE FOOD – DELICIOUS! 🍽️ Let's just say we definitely came back home with a few extra pounds! 😂 The food was fantastic! A special mention to Salt & Cut Carnivorous Restaurant – an absolute MUST-TRY! And if you're looking for breathtaking beach views, Al Mar Social Lounge is the place to be! All in all, an unforgettable experience, made even more special by an incredible team who genuinely go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. We came as guests, but left feeling like family. ❤️"

Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay at Z2 Hotel! Staff are all so welcoming, friendly and helpful – which made Hotel Z and Z2 a standout property. You'll be greeted with warm smiles and a happy "Jambo" by everyone! Hotel Z is the main property, and Z2 is the sister property (where we stayed) right around the corner. Hotel Z2 offers the same access to the Z Hotel property including the pool and beach lounge area (pool-side service), gym, spa and access to the Z property restaurants and other beach-front resort property restaurants. Our room was not beach-front- but did include a pool view and was very quiet. The beach is very short walk around the corner through the Z Hotel. The location in Nungwi is excellent on a more quiet section of the beach, and close enough to night life and fun activities. The resort properties offers all-inclusive restaurants if you purchase that package. We had the breakfast package - which at Z2 and was pool-side right on the property and very good – egg dishes or avocado toast made the way you like + a really generous buffet spread with juices, fresh fruit, pastries and so much more. Rooms are very clean and the air conditioning is really good - a must on this tropical island. A back-up generator kept everything running well 24/7. This is a big deal on the island where rolling blackouts can occur. Security were all very welcoming and kept a close eye on the entrances but the area, and everywhere we went in Zanzibar, felt very safe regardless."

Tembo Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay; I didn't expect any kind of view and it is in the midst of other buildings. A short walk from the main hotel, where you have access to all of the the amenities including breakfast, pools, private beach, etc. The room was a bit bare bones for furniture, but what was there was local and good quality. No mosquito netting, but they say that they spray, although we did find one. We used the ceiling fans all night which should also keep them away. The bathroom was beautifully tiled. Great staff at the main hotel and there is security at the entrance to the Palace Hotel. Biggest downside - uneven stairs and no elevator."
