We had a fantastic stay (5 nights) at Lala Land Lodge. Frida and Ben are the lovely, super friendly and chilled couple who run this small family eco-lodge located in beautiful surroundings right in front of the sea. The staff is ultra nice and helpful. We especially loved Hawa with her beautiful energy and professionalism. She is pure sunshine. It is a place that is especially suited for those who seek peace and tranquility as it is a bit secluded. We had delicious and very nutritious breakfasts included with our stay and the rest of the food is excellent and the portions generous. The pool is a mix of salt water and fresh water which we found way better than chlorine pools. Note that for the showers and sink it’s the same. But you are provided with buckets of fresh water to rinse. Basically, we highly recommend Kizimkazi and Lala Land Lodge.

The staff and the owner are all so accommodating. It's vibrant and so beautiful the surrounding areas with trees, bushes, fruit plants and a great swimming pool.
The rooms were gorgeous and suited everyone in our groups needs. Myself and Alex in a double.room with a private shower room and toilet.
Our friends were in the backpackers area which was also really good and had curtains.yo.sectopm off the sleeping areas for privacy and a shared bathroom/ shower room.
It's not slap in the middle of a busy section of the island so it's lovely and quiet at night. They provide breakfast with your stay and the food we had.from their restaurant was delicious..
Would recommend for family's and couples. 🥰

I had an amazing stay at Aya Beach Resort! The Aya Beach Team was incredibly welcoming and attentive. The new chef's dishes were delicious and a highlight of our trip. The room was perfect—comfortable, beautifully decorated, and with a stunning view. Watching the sunset from the beach was breathtaking. Highly recommend this gem in Zanzibar!

Outstanding hosts at Mandarin, feels just like home! We had a pleasant 2-nights stay and it was total relaxation for us. The ambience was great, very clean, all the staff were great, Chef Amir made the best of dishes (breakfast was also top notch) and extra stars for the GM Mr. Hany! There are different activities at Mandarin but unfortunately, we were only there to basically eat, sleep and enjoy the beach though I am sure they would be just as great. If you are looking for a great affordable place in Zanzibar then Mandarin Resort it is!

This place has an amazing ambient and a beautiful soul! It was like a hub for the coolest people from every country, looking for a peaceful, extremely relaxed vacation in a bit of wilderness, heartfelt conversations with alcohol next to the fire… it’s all in the package, and as a bonus you get one of the best teams - owners and staff members that are right there for you literally every minute.
Thank you all guys- Benjamin, Annick, Cliffton, Melania, Elisabeth and others whose names we did not get to know;) You were all so amazing that even after two weeks it was a pity to leave. We look forward to meeting you all again!
PS. A big thanks to Cliffton for recommending us Malaika, We enjoyed it to the fullest ;-)

It’s a very quiet and enjoyable place and you can book lots of activities from there but overall there is not much going outside the hotels. The public beach doesn’t have any good restaurants or shops so you’re pretty much tied to your resort.

The location is more quiet then other places, they do not have a beach like Kendwa but it you are just looking to relax a couple of days this does not matter. It is like on a little cliff, sooo nice!

Kizimkazi is a village, although in fact there are 2 distinct and separate areas, with 2 beaches. The rest of the area is comprised of large, private self-contained resorts with their own private stairways.
There is not much to explore, but boat owners offer big-game fishing and dolphin-watching.
There are only 2 restaurants, although some of the private resorts offer their restaurants to the public; but at a price.
Hardly any touting which is nice;
3 or 4 days is probably sufficient to see all there is to see.

Place was very clean, food was nice and staff were very friendly, always available to assist
They also organized transport for us to travel around
Pete(Rasta man) was very friendly and he gave me some plants to bring to South Africa, I have them in my garden now
Morning shower was terrible, water was always cold and it seemed like their geyser or boiler was faulty
Beautiful laid-back vibe bar and restaurant area. Small number of rooms and accommodation. Service felt personal - staff are a true asset here and couldn't be more welcoming or helpful Room was on top floor of main building with balcony walkway in front giving view of the stunning garden setting and relaxed pool area. Taxis, trips, etc. can be booked easily from here. We arrived at 4am with taxi pickup arranged by the hotel from the airport.
The property is in a beautiful, the interior of the hotel is stunning. I stayed in both the swim up and jacuzzi room. Both are beautiful. Staff were able to help with issues I had with the swim up room ( it faces the gym not giving a lot of privacy but I was placed in a different room once requested. Some of the staff are very nice and friendly , there’s lot of good people trying their best to make everyone’s stay comfortable.
Mama Root is the perfect getaway in Zanzibar. The property is right on one of the most gorgeous and less touristy beaches, the hotel is small and intimate, the included breakfast is great (lots of fresh fruits fruits and your choice of eggs or pancakes), and the owners and staff are amazing and always checking in to make sure all your needs are met. This place is truly an amazing find. No notes.
The Hotel itself is really beautiful, a tiny place but we really loved it. The Beach is not as long as at the North side for example but still possible for a short walk and the water is clear. And the hotel is perfectly locatated for an amazing sunset. We really enjoyed watching it every single day. The Breakfast and Dinner was very tasty. We really liked and they also had several options.
Amazing location and value for money. All the surrounding places cost twice as much. The owner was super attentive and helped us find a good captain/low price to go swimming with the dolphins. It was only a 5 minute walk on the beach to get to the boats who would take us. Breakfast was lovely, the view was beautiful, the bed was comfy, overall a really lovely stay.
-the location of the hotel is very nice, calm and relaxing private beach from a few minutes walking distance from the hotel (although the way to the hotel from the airport is very long and the overall road conditions are very poor)
-the food is very good, lot of choices of international and local dishes, the restaurant staff is very nice and helpful
The staff are attentive, kind, and willing to help with anything.
Special thanks to Chef and his team- the food was amazing and he accomodated our out of menu requests.
We enjoyed learning about the permaculture and sustainability at the hotel - it's good to stay at a place which values the local practices and promotes local businesses
I loved the facility, good decoration and layout! Lovely and well trained staff
They clean your room twice per day, you are not bothered and you can leave your life as you please
The room had a pool shared with the other 5 rooms and it was nice to dive far from the crowd.
The hotel has sun all day, kart service, amenities are new
This is a very nice, very small paradise in the end of the world. Food was good, people very warmly welcoming and friendly. We only left the property for snorkeling right in front of the hotel. If you are looking for something that is NOT a huge resort and few people to enjoy the beautiful view on the sea and colours, this is great.
Promise land is in Kizimkazi. The hotel is exceptional and the staff is amazing. The food is delicious but the menu has to be changed because it is the same the last two years.
Also sunsets are mesmerizing in this hotel and it has a family ambience.
It is beachfront with an exceptional view.
The room is wonderful. The private pool is very nice. The resort is massive with many facilities and activities to pass your time. You can spend your full stay without having to leave the hotel. The food is nice and great variety to choose from. Staff are friendly and welcoming.
The hotel facilities are very nice, especially the villas. We got a villa with a totally private pool but quite near to the main areas of the resort. The resort is quite big and there are bikes available to get aroud.
Amazing hotel , friendly staff , we loved staying there and we will come back for sure , excellent furniture, amazing small details , we love it , I highly recommended
