    We had a dinner around the pool with a show and before the show finished the staff already started taken the lights and decoration from the tables! At certain point I went to the toilet with my kid and came back and my table was gone!! Really strange! All the staff carrying things around in front of the show!

    It is a beautiful place!! All so well mantained! Nice restaurant and great food! Staff is really nice and friendly!

    There was nothing not to like! I didn’t want to leave!

    Nest Style was such a beautiful place with all the thoughtful comforts you need to unwind. The staff was amazing, the seafood buffet and freshly cut fruit to order top notch and the well appointed cozy rooms felt like home.

    Everything at this hotel is simply amazing. Me and my partner was trying to find the perfect spot for wedding, and the staff and manager at this hotel made it happen with a very short notice. The setup was so beautiful, and they went above and beyond to make this day special. When we arrived they had decorated the whole room with beautiful romantic decorations and music. The staff was so nice and service minded. I would recommend everyone to stay at this hotel for special occasions or holiday, as this hotel is truly a paradise ❤️ THANK YOU!!

    Everything was perfect

    The hotel is amazing. Situated directly on the beach, amazing sea views, amazing service. We loved everything about it. The food, the staff, everything. Spending our days under the coconut trees was the best thing we could have dreamed off with the best cocktails the bartender did for us. What an amazing place. What an amazing stay. Highly recommended. We also loved the attention Mario, the director, provided us every time we asked for places to visit or things to do. He provided us with the best trips and information about surroundings. Definitely will come back

    I don't like how noisy it is.....didn't seem to bother our son too much.

    We booked this place for our son and daughter in law, they really liked it. We did not stay there as it is too noisy for us, music from the bar playing all the time. But our son really liked it. They showed a movie one night and had a band another night so too loud for us. Swimming pool is great, they said breakfast was amazing

    Everybody should do his best, to protect this beautiful piece of beach. Please don't touch any starfish or take them out of the water for just one stupid picture. They are going to die! The Beaches are very clean just close to the hotels. But the further you go, the more plastic you will see. That's so sad!!

    We had a very nice welcome to this beautiful Hotel. Staff are very friendly. The Breakfast is very good with a lot of different food. Also, dinner was very varied some nights there was traditional cooking or bbq. The cocktails were delicious as well and served on the beach! We were thrilled that we had booked all-inclusive. We slept like babies. This hotel is recommendable!

    Limited menu, variety on the buffet breakfast is limited and repeated. Didn't like what one of the waitresses was saying in swahili, she thought I didn't understand. It was not nice, maybe more training is needed.

    The staff are very good, Salome was very helpful and Mario the manager is an amazing guy. The pool is nice, and the beach is next to the hotel. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Overall its worth the money

    The delicious and varied option of food, incredible facilities, exceptional customer service from arrival until we left the hotel’s gate. The staff were incredibly attentive, professional and extremely accommodating. They made our stay extra special with their smiley faces and warm customer services. Every single staff from the man that cleans the pool at the early hours, the person running around turning on the lights even though it was pouring, the securities, the bar men and women, the room service attendees, maintenance gentleman, the cleaning ladies, the chefs, waiters and waitresses deserve sincere acknowledgment for their incredible work. They made our stay thousand times more enjoyable and just perfect.

    On the right side from the bar you have two paths to enter de bar. If you put one path in the middle where the stairs are when you go to the buffet, then it’s OK because everyone walks on the grass or you can go from the pool but the shortcut will be nice. The equipment from the fitness can be better the fitness machines are not so good, It needs maintenance

    It was excellent

    The rooms were a bit sparsely furnished. Something to put the suitcases on would have been nice and a little bit brighter lights.

    The hotel is really nice and clean and not so big which we enjoyed. It is a very quiet location, there is not much around. We knew that beforehand and booked all-inclusive which was well worth it. The staff is exceptional. Everyone is really friendly and doing their best to make your stay comfortable. The pool is nice and there was always enough space at either the pool or the beach to lie down on a lounger. The food was really good as well and the selection at the buffet was great.

    The food, it was sometimes cold and dry. We booked a full arrangement, but this means you wont get a full arrangement. You may only choose between a few options. If you pay for the food, you may choose whatever is on the menu.

    - Wi-fi was awful, it was connecting fine but the internet itself was almost nonexistent at times, even at the reception desk. They tried to fix this multiple times but we just gave in. Worth noting that 3G is also very bad in the area so having a sim card didn't really help. - Our room had a sea view but it looks like some staff was working behind our bathroom window and they were really noisy in the morning, laughing, watching videos, etc. Not a big issue but the morning sleep was disrupted at times - It's very windy, not the hotel's fault, but worth noting if you plan your stay there

    - Amazing facilities and the hotel in general - Great staff, very friendly (even though some looked a bit tired of use towards the end of our stay, as we had all-inclusive and kept ordering stuff) - Great location on the beach - Great cocktails - Great food - They have bikes and kayaks which you can use - They have lots of TV channels so I was able to watch the FA Community Shield (COYG) Really great overall, we ended up extending it for 2 more days

    Hotel is in a small town of Zanzibar and there aren’t restaurants or cafes around the hotel. If you are looking for more options, it might not be a suitable option for you.

    Great hospitality, helpful and lovely staff, good food, clean rooms, good cocktails… all was great with Nest Style. Highly recommended.
