Tanzania

I am afraid that I simply can't advise anyone to go to this resort. There were some good things about it but the overall experience was desperately disappointing. My family and I were having a very special holiday and Hakuna Majiwe was to be its culmination. After a magical vist to Saadani Game Lodge on mainland Tanzania and then a...

I have stayed at the Flame Tree Cottages for 9 days on the beggining of January 2012. The personal was very lazy. The staff and the management of the Flame Tree Cottages – very poor! The location is very good near the beaches bars area. The breakfast was poor (eggs, eggs and eggs), except all the fresh fruits and juice....

We stayed here for a week in December and found it to be great value for money. The staff were very friendly and really went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. You get to know them pretty well as its such a small resort; only ten bungalows. Therefore you get used to seeing the same faces at...

My girlfriend and I had the worst night of our Zanzibar trip at the Melia hotel in Kiwengwa. We had booked a single night in this hotel and everything went terribly wrong. We were welcomed quite nicely by the local staff in the morning (of course because you pay on arrival!) and were walked to our room. Quite big, very...

We had anticipated a laid back, pleasant atmosphere, but unfortunately were sadly disappointed. Bottom-line, we did not feel safe in staying here. We were also taken back by the lack of understanding regarding potential activities, and the push to sign up for really expensive outings, which we subsequently found through other avenues, to be much more affordable. The showers are...

We chose this hotel based on the Trip Advisor ratings it had received. On arrival we were greeted friendly and were made aware of of hot spots and the best things to do - great! Our rooms was just beautiful and room service with in room breakfast et al was superior. Having contact with Emerson and understanding his willingness to...

I came here last year and returned this spring with my boyfriend. It was just as peaceful, beautiful, and relaxing as I'd remembered. Sazani's owners and manager are working hard to make the property environmentally low-impact, which is a rarity on Zanzibar with huge resorts. The staff goes out of their way - we got an impromptu free cooking class...

We had a wonderful relaxing time at Next Paradise. The staff are very friendly but very much leave you to yourself unless you ask for their assistance, which was perfect for us. Great pool, which leads onto a white sandy beach. Sea not great for swimming but lots of kite-surfers. Clean, beautiful rooms with very comfy beds. The food in...

For our Zanzibar honeymoon, we decided for our first few nights to be at the Hakuna Matata Beach Lodge. I really wanted to impress her with a room in their honeymoon suite that looked over the water. Our trip for October was booked in March with confirmation for the honeymoon suite. You can only understand our surprise when they put...

My wife and I had an amazing time at Breezes, the rooms do not have TV, the view from the room was second beach front and was amazing. We stayed there for 7 nights. The food was delightful, the flavours kept on blowing up in the mouth. I commend them for the complimentary package for the honeymooners - free padi...

After hearing such good comments from people I know and from guests who had stayed there prior to coming over to Essque, I decided to stay there next time my family visits me in Zanzibar. We spent 2 nights at Jafferji House and were lucky to have got the room we had heard so much about - The Princess Selma...

We arrived here from Paje for a 5 days. We were pleasantly greeted by the staff with a cool hand towel and some fresh juice, it was really appreciated after a hot dusty drive. We were shown to our room which was a garden bungalow and it was lovely. Although we didn't have a great ocean view it was still...

On arrival we were welcomed with cold juice and our bags carried to our room (although we discovered this everywhere in Tanzania). We arrived in mid afternoon, and the electricity and hot water was off, not ideal after a long flight (though again not uncommon to the area). We found that our shower (room 14) flooded the bathroom and had...
