From the moment you step through the door, you are welcomed into a peaceful and very pleasant environment surrounded by greenery. The location is excellent; it’s only a 2-3 minute walk to the beach. The breakfast menu changes daily, and you can have it at any time you like. I think this is wonderful. The staff are very friendly. Mr. Alp helps with everything to make you feel at home, and I am very grateful to him. Being within walking distance of the beach and restaurants and in a safe area allows you to vacation alone comfortably. Hakuna Matata.

Very friendly employees, they will do their best for you to have the most amazing experience. The food is REALLY DELICIOUS, the "seafood salad" and the "mixed prawns and calamari" skewers are a must have. The view from the hotel room is out of this world. I could not recommend this place more.

I loved my stay at The African Bungalows. The best place I ever stayed. I was crying when I left - not joking. The owner, the staff. They are so helpful with everything and I mean everything! I felt so welcomed. It's a very genuine place and they made my stay in Zanzibar absolutely awesome. The room is gorgeous and clean. The bed and the shower are nice and you will feel safe here. The place is made with such good traste! Outstanding value for money. And the food, don't forget the food. Breakfast and dinner were delish!! Whenever I come back to Zanzibar I will come back here. I couldn't have been happier! Best regards to my African Bungalow familiy, I will never forget all that you did to make my stay such a great experience. I can highly recommend this place to anyone who is planning to visit this paradise island called Zanzibar. Your stay here will be worth while. 🥰♥️🙏

    From the first moment we entered Zuri it was perfect. This hotel guarantees perfect relaxation and high quality service from A to Z. We were really charmed by the place. Whether it was the spacious and stylish rooms, the highly professional staff, the high class gastronomy to the point of I would say fine dining cuisine or the private beach right by the Indian Ocean or the swimming pool where one could perfectly relax at any time of the day. There is really nothing in Zuri that is not an experience. If one has the opportunity to come to this hotel one should definitely do it because you will not find a better hotel in Zanzibar, and I dare say not even far and wide.

    Except that it is well preserved beach and pool facilities. The hotel is one of a kind of its unique management and staff. They are all ultra friendly. And after a few days spending in the hotel, you feel yourself at home. It is very much convenient specially for the families travelling with kids. The hotel its own beach, under the beautiful palms. All the green is very well maintained and kept, which gives you much more pleasure while you are relaxing.

    Tulia was an absolute beauty- luxurious. The staff service was top, the details on the building, the place is soo serene. I can’t praise it enough… it was calming. Michaelle treats you like you are her only guest- with much care and attention. They do fine dining so there is two options to pick on for main course each day- which might be limiting for some. It was not the case for us. We loved Tulia and hope to be back again next time in Zanzibar!

    2 days is good enough, even less. Avoid the street food! Eat in the verified places! Drink only bottled water. Stone Town is absolutely safe and friendly, a tourist-oriented place. Recommended. No parking inside the old town, take a taxi, it's cheap and fast.

    Kiwengwa is a perfect place to spend time with the family. Exquisit nature, kind people and the best food. Boat trips, beach activities, village strolls, getting to know the culture of local people who are very knowlegeable about the natural agriculture and extreemly kind and nice. We loved every minute of our stay at Kiwengwa.

    The sea and beach with super soft and white sand are absolutely fabulous and relatively clean. I got bitten by sand fleas on my legs because I spend a lot of time in the sea and walked barefoot. There is a lot of informal trade on the beach by locals trying to sell something. Maybe even more so if you are a woman walking alone.

    This is not a touristy location... it is off the beaten track... a village, by the sea, with an increasing number of resorts being added. I hope it does not lose its charm to the crowds. This is a quiet, special place.

    Michamvi is good for relaxing and enjoying . There are few vendors and they are not disturbing you and friendly. We stayed 25 days at Kikoi Boutique Resort and arranged all excursions on Zanzibar as well as a Safari with Sir Alex at Kikoi for reasonable prices and with good service . Their Cook Mister Mahaveer Sing is a real Master Chef and we enjoyed every meal he prepared us . Compliments to all the people working there. You made our stay unfogettable.
