"I had an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience with this hotel owner. We paid $2,700 for what was clearly sold to us as a 3-day tour, but after payment it was suddenly reduced to only 2 days with no proper explanation or refund.
To make matters worse, we were left at the airport without any transportation arranged, despite this being part of what was discussed. Since then, the owner has ignored our messages and refused to respond or take responsibility.
This felt unprofessional,...

"Arrived late and were greeted by staff who even made us a meal despite the late hour. Room was tired, scuffy with stained cushions. Pillows had dried blood and mold stains so needed changing immediately, which was done. Ours was meant to be Delux Garden View, we had a corridor view through front window and a brick wall view through seriously cement stained back window so we didn't open curtains during our time there. The hot water either scalding or freezing, nothing in-between. The WiFi was off...

"I’m happy to strongly recommend Terry’s Villa to anyone traveling to Nungwi. I stayed there with my family, and we had a spectacular experience from start to finish.
The villa itself was clean, spacious, and very comfortable — especially appreciated after long days exploring Zanzibar’s beautiful beaches. Although the villa is located a few minutes from the beach, it’s still within easy walking distance, which made getting around very convenient.
A special mention goes to the manager, Shivji, who...

"Just to be clear: there is no pool. And the hotel is 5 minutes walking distance from the beach. But the service is 5 stars. And they clean every day, and change the bed and towels every 2 days"

"MINUS 10 STARS!!
Went from bad to worse from the time we arrived.
From having a mess in 1 room since they were building a bed, no toiletries at all as mentioned,
Water was not working properly; lights went off in 1 room and the ac and water not working in another.
Then went in total darkness with no back-up generator available and we were told it happens all the time.
Staff was hard to find even with a 'reception' area.
All around a horrible experience. Plus, we forgot to take 1 item...

"The Mora is a beautiful property with lots of ameneties like spa, dving center and lots of activities. The pools are really nice as well. We enjoyed our stay there but for us to go back few things would need to improve. The cost to stay there is high so we had a level of expectation that was similar to what we got at all inlcusive high end hotels in Kenya. Unfortinately we were disappointed.
Drinks: While they are included the quality that was provided was terrible. For example $5 bottles of wine are included that taste terrible and all decent wines have a surcharge. Hard liquor was some local brand that wasn't drinkable. Surcharges for decent liquor was very high.
Staff: While staff are nice there is a significant language barrier. If you ask for coffee a certain way or a drink to be made a certian way the staff do not understand. While friendly they need better training.
Drinks quality and staff need improvement for us to comsider this resort in the future."
"Zuri Zanzibar is an outstanding resort and easily deserves 5 out of 5 stars. I travel extensively and regularly stay at Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton and other luxury resorts, and Zuri matches that level of quality and service.
The property itself is stunning. I was especially impressed by the beautiful landscaping and gardens, which are expansive, meticulously maintained and cared for daily. We stayed in a suite with my partner and her best friend, and it was exceptional. The suite was very spacious, with a separate living room that easily accommodated an additional bed, plus a large patio with a hammock and dining table.
Our butlers, Peter and Pia, were outstanding. They were incredibly helpful and available 24/7, arranging everything from restaurant reservations and taxis to nightlife, excursions and airport transportation. Nothing was too much trouble.
The food was excellent throughout our stay, including the breakfast buffet, beach barbecue and poolside restaurant. The beach is beautiful, the beach bar is terrific, and the nightly sunset fire is a wonderful touch. The water sports and activities staff were also friendly and professional.
We visited several other hotels in Zanzibar, and Zuri was by far our favorite property and had the best beach. Beautiful resort, exceptional service and a truly five-star experience."
"We enjoyed our stay. The staff were amazing. Irene was helpful at check in and tried to get us an upgrade even though the hotel was fully booked. Elai in the main restaurant was amazing everyday as well. Looking forward to coming back"
"Property is beautiful but there is no swimmable beach. They have a shuttle to another resort but they only do it twice a day, You have to pay $10 each but it is consummable, You can use the chairs and umbrellas but by the time you get there after 11 they are all occupied, if you don’t care about the beach then its ok. They have a nice pool and a jetty."
"On a adoré nôtre séjour dans Mantis nungwi dreams. Personnel tres professionel et accueillant, la bouffe etait excellente, les prix etaient bien justifiés, je recommande fortement."
"My stay at Canary Kendwa Beach Resort was one of the most beautiful vacations I’ve ever had. Everything exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived.
The resort is perfectly located on the stunning Kendwa Beach, with crystal-clear turquoise water, soft white sand, and breathtaking sunsets every evening. Swimming in the warm ocean was an unforgettable experience.
Our room was spacious, spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The bathroom was modern, and housekeeping kept everything perfectly clean throughout our stay.
The staff were exceptional—friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. No request was too much, and they made us feel welcome every day.
The food was delicious with plenty of variety, and the beachfront bar served amazing cocktails at great prices. Enjoying drinks while watching the sunset was one of our favorite moments.
We also loved the daily activities and evening entertainment. Playing table tennis and watching the international shows made every night fun and memorable. The reception team was always available and very helpful whenever we needed assistance.
Canary Kendwa Beach Resort offers the perfect combination of relaxation, beautiful scenery, excellent service, delicious food, and a wonderful atmosphere. We created unforgettable memories here and can’t wait to return. We highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Zanzibar—it truly deserves 5 stars!"
