Sunshine Bay Zanzibar - Adult Only

8/10 Good

"Lovely room and the view was phenomenal. Check in says till 11pm but make sure you let them know in advance (we had) but it was clear they were due to go home when we arrived after 10. Food at restaurant was great, and staff very helpful. We dived with the sister hotel and had a great experience. We contacted them ourselves as hotel suggested getting shuttle bus to book but they were responsive via WhatsApp and this was easier."

Sunshine Marine Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The eco-friendly resort is a little gem. The cuisine is varied and excellent—even by Italian standards—with an outstanding breakfast offering both sweet and savory options. The air-conditioned bungalows, equipped with mosquito nets, were serviced multiple times a day, including the spraying of mosquito repellent.Efficient and very friendly staff.Top-notch security. A quiet, secluded location. The resort is connected to two other properties under the same ownership, featuring long beaches to explore and two additional restaurants.Highly recommended"

Zanzibar Queen Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property is a gated resort about 1 - 1.5 hour drive from the airport and Stone Town. It is a typical Jamaican/Mexican/Costa Rican higher-end resort. I had the fortune of staying in one of the newer rooms, so the room was nice with all updated amenities. The mattress firm, which is not to my taste, so that would be my only complaint. The property is very well maintained two pools and a lovely beach. I am more of a beach person and the permanently affixed grass umbrellas provided ample shade from the sun. The food was excellent! I loved the soups on the menu each evening. I informed the staff that I had dairy allergy and they made every accommodation to fit my needs. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The property offers a ranges of tours, so that you can enjoy other aspects of Zanzibar. There are currently sea urchins in the water, so you will need to watch were you step in the water. Yoga is offered daily except Wednesday and Sunday and the instructor is awesome. I also had two massages, both were very good for the price. No real complaints."

My Blue Hotel

8/10 Good

"Property grounds were nice. Rooms are a bit dated. The TV and telephone in our room did not work. Manager at reception was very accommodating and made our stay much better. The massages were excellent. Highly recommend them.! Wifi is awful! Love the balconies! The other downside is the beach, the beach is beautiful but you have to pay 25$ for 2 chairs and umbrella every day if you want to be on the beach. Otherwise they do have beach chairs on man made beach near infinity pool. Just depends on your preference! Food is ok. Nothing to rave about but something for everyone!"
