Canary Nungwi Hotel & Free SPA 4 stars

Hotel in Nungwi Beach, Nungwi

Set in Nungwi, 400 metres from Nungwi Beach, Canary Nungwi Hotel & Free SPA offers accommodation with a fitness centre, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. It was a beautiful environment and during our stay they had just finished building another outdoor area that had a hammock and lots of sun chairs! They had a pool table, a ping pong table and darts and not to mention the lovely pool with a waterfall in the centre. The room was perfect for us and so nice with the air conditioning. The food very tasty from the restaurant and different options for breakfast each morning! It is a small 5min walk to the beach and they provide beach towels for you whenever you need! We had a great 7 days here and would come back in a heartbeat!

Z-Lodge Zanzibar 4 stars

Hotel in Kiwengwa

Located in Kiwengwa, a few steps from Kiwengwa Beach, Z-Lodge Zanzibar provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. I recently had the best stay ever at Z-Lodge . The ocean view was absolutely breathtaking and made for an unforgettable experience. The food was delicious and exceeded my expectations, with every dish bursting with flavor. I couldn't have asked for a better night's sleep, as the beds were super comfy and ensured a great night's rest. But what really made my stay unforgettable was the staff - they were incredibly helpful, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an amazing getaway.

Mahali Zanzibar

Hotel in Paje Beach, Paje

Featuring a private beach area, a year-round outdoor pool and free Wi-Fi, Mahali Zanzibar is set in Paje, Zanzibar. The hotel features a sun terrace and views of the sea. Spacious and clean rooms with great sea view. Helpful and hospitable staff and owners. Good, well-maintained facilities and a lovely pool. Breakfast is 'a la carte', starting with a fruit platter and continuing with a great variety of options. There was no restriction - you could order everything you liked from the menu. Hotel was very helpful in arranging our transportation to/from Zanzibar ferry terminal (it is strongly recommended to book a taxi through the hotel, as it is much cheaper and safer than any 'driver' approaching you outside the ferry). The hotel also arranged for us a visit to the Blue Lagoon (again at a much lower price that what tourists could find on their own), where we had a chance to see the spectacular coral reef and its exotic marine species. One of the greatest assets of the hotel is its location right on the beautiful Paje beach, ideal for relaxation, jogging or water sports. (First-time visitors are advised not to pay too much attention to locals trying to sell you stuff, as they will not leave you alone until you buy something from them - usually overpriced at 'tourist rates'.) Around the hotel there is a local market, where you can buy spices, local handicraft and other goods. For handicraft, be prepared to negotiate hard, as the initial quoted prices are quite high.

Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar 4 stars

Hotel in Mtende

Set in Mtende, 35 km from Zanzibar Butterfly Centre, Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. I travelled with my kids and to be honest this place did not feel like a lodge or hotel, it felt like home away from home. Everyone from the owners Eric and Sophie to all the staff were so warm, friendly and welcoming. They made it so hard for us to leave. We really enjoyed our vacation and we will for sure go back there. Thank you to all of the Lodges staff and a big thank you to Eric and Sophie for make our trip a memorable one. We will always remember this holiday.

TIANDE Boutique Hotel 4 stars

Hotel in Pwani Mchangani

Located in Pwani Mchangani, 300 metres from Pwani Mchangani Beach, TIANDE Boutique Hotel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. The property is so pretty- the gardens are beautiful and it’s a quick walk to the beach. Although TianDe isn’t directly on the beach, Mariola (the owner) has a friendly relationship with a neighboring hotel that is first row, so guests can spend time there during the day. The bar and restaurant area are lovely and the food is yummy and fresh- we tried breakfast, lunch and dinner. The pool is sparkling, and the staff is warm and hard-working. Our room was clean and comfortable, with A/C, tea/coffee, good shower, nice decor. Mariola and her boyfriend live on site- they are doing a fantastic job running TianDe with a lot of hard work and love. We wish them success and will recommend to TianDe to anyone traveling to Zanzibar.

Sunny Villa Matemwe

Hotel in Matemwe

Sunny Villa Matemwe has an outdoor swimming pool, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Matemwe. The hotel is small and friendly, it gave us a real homely feeling that despite the full house, we were able to enjoy the pool and restaurant together. We could order dinner on time. The hotel is 50 m from the ocean shore, with four huge rooms and two family-friendly suites, a swimming pool, and a cozy restaurant waiting for travelers who want to relax. The staff is extremely kind, they clean the rooms every day. Aziza and Sammy stole into our hearts. We whole heartedly recommend the hotel to anyone who needs western comfort, but wants to experience Africa, the daily life of local residents, watch the local children playing football from the hotel terrace...
