"Friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast as expected, nothing fancy but nice. Great rooms with Daily moskito hindering. Nice size. Great and nice, but rather small pool.
In the end the hotel lived up to our expectations."
"It was a great stay, the staff is amazing especially the manager! I strongly recommend a stay at Terrys Villa if you want to experience Hakuna Matata! Very close to the beach but still secluded and private! "
"I am a solo female traveller. Zanzibar House is an excellent property in so many ways. The staff are friendly and helpful. The grounds are a delight to be in, with lots of comfortable places to sit and read or contemplate the beauty of the area.
I did not use the pool and I am sure it would be lovely.
At night time I had an evening meal which was tasty and they accommodated my dietary requirements very well. I am gluten intolerant. I recommend this hotel if you like quiet and beauty filled...
"Fabulous hotel with the most beautufull decor. Its even better that the pictures shows. Staff was friendlyy and breakfast was great.
Only thing was that airconditioning did not work, but there was a fan in the ceiling that helped. "
"This hotel and its amenities were subpar. The Wi-Fi hardly worked. The television was non-functional. The meals were not tasty. There are cats scattered all over the dining area when you’re eating. But the staff were great! "

Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"Highlights:
- the food!!! Best all inclusive food I’ve had
- the staff!! They are SO friendly, polite and want to make sure you’re having a great time
- location. Stunning location on the beach. The grounds are lovely and you get to use Jambo next door also.
- House keeping! Amazing room decor every day.
Opportunities:
- entertainment is lacking, especially if it’s raining. So bring some cards with you.
- our room door batteries had to be changed 3 times across 12 days, which seemed a lot. Perhaps we were just unlucky.
We loved staying here and had the best time. Sadly I got acute tonsillitis but the onsite doctors sorted me out (though I’ll neee to claim that back)
I, naively, didn’t realise there was such a tip culture so didn’t come with enough cash, so would recommend to others to have plenty of small notes in USD.

"Nice resort. Good food. Large rooms with nice showers and plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Security around the property made me feel safe. Beach is nice when the tide is out. Lots of lounge chairs available. Workers all over the property cleaning, raking, trimming the trees/bushes. Very well maintained public spaces. "
"Great decor! Brand new wing is lovely but note is separate to the main hotel. Excellent breakfast. Very honest staff.
The hotel tours team v high std and good value for Dhow and snorklong trips. Spa appraently good but disaapintingly hard to book. "
"We had great time at this hotel. Good evening entertainment and food was great! This hotel was busier then the other three hotels we stayed in zanzibar. Nice little beach area and bars. Would stay again.."
