Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive - Adults Only

Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"It's over 1 hr. drive from the airport but once you get to the hotel you would feel the peace and serenity around you enough to forget your journey. The newly built accommodation is really nice but they need to either get a king mattress of put a frame around the twin XL mattress to prevent them from separating if you roll towards the middle."
