  • Tofauti Inn Review score: 10

    “We had an unforgettable stay at Tofauti Inn. From the moment we arrived, it felt like coming home. The lush garden was absolutely beautiful, and our cottage was cozy, peaceful, and full of charm. Every detail—from the architecture to the atmosphere—was thoughtfully designed. The food was delicious and the service outstanding. The team made us feel like we had known them for years—so warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. We felt truly cared for throughout our stay. If we had to mention one downside… it’s that we had to leave! We would have loved to stay longer in this little paradise. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serene and soulful experience in Zanzibar.”

  • Emerald Palm Boutique Hotel Review score: 9

    “The hotel is located in the center of Stone Town, in a safe, convenient and picturesque neighbourhood. The room was clean and tidy with everyday cleaning. Thank you for the positive experience!”

  • POLE POLE House Review score: 9

    “The staff was great! Muhammad and the rest of the staff were very very welcoming (they gave us small pole pole wrist bands that give you discount for a lebanese restaurant near the beach) and friendly, always ready to help us and flexible for personal requests (Muhammad negotiated the price for our taxi and gave us free bottled water once the stores closed) ! The breakfast changed every morning so it was nice to have variety (different types of eggs, bread, sausages, salad, fruits, tea) . There was a power shortcut but it's not the hotel's fault. The power shortcut was on the whole island, so there was no light for 1-2 hours. The staff gave us lamps for our rooms while we were wating for the light to come back.”

  • Kijiji Villas Nungwi Review score: 10

    “The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, with everything we needed to feel at home. What made our experience unforgettable was the warmth and kindness of the staff. The team went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, always smiling and ready to help. We felt cared for in every moment, and leaving was the only thing that felt difficult. Kijiji Villas is not just a place to stay—it’s a place to connect, unwind, and feel truly at ease. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, charm, and genuine hospitality in Zanzibar.”
