"We (me, my husband and three boys from the age 3 to 9) left our all-inclusive resort on the east coast (Uroa) to stay 2 nights in vivid Stone Town. The Habari House was our choice because of its centrsl location with only a short walking distance to everything. We really enjoyed this part of the journey and recommend the Habari House to everyone, who wants to experience Stone Town for more than just a day-trip!

"Great staff, top breakfast, excellent location! Our room had a magnificent seaview. The overall feeling in the hotel was amazing. Highly recommended. "
"I’d rate my stay here a solid 10/10! Even though I travelled solo, it never once felt like it. The resort truly felt like a home away from home. The environment was stunning and peaceful, the staff were outstanding, and the service was top-notch with prompt assistance whenever needed. If I ever return to Zanzibar, this will definitely be my go-to place to stay."
"This is a lovely hotel in a historic building. It’s walking distance to all the sights of Stonetown. Our room was clean and comfortable. The balcony looked out to the Indian Ocean. Staff were very helpful and friendly, particularly the receptionist who helped us with booking our transfer to the airport at the end of our stay. "
"The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. We always looked forward to the meals because the food was delicious and great conversation with the staff. They made us feel at home, I wished we had stayed longer! It was my fiance’s birthday and they made it as special as possible, they made him his favourite dish and had a birthday song performance that left him beaming from ear to ear. It was truly a memorable stay at Zanzi. A beautiful hideaway from the world, the villa was spectacular and private. We look forward to coming back again."
"Booked the place for a honeymoon, spent quite a considerable amount of money. The lagoon room we booked was absolutely amazing, loved this experience very much, scenery was immaculate.
Was let down by the overall quality of everything else unfortunately. Just as a comparison to other all inclusive’s in Zanzibar which offered much more for a fraction of the price. Overall quality of the product to its value was poor all things considered. Would unlikely stay again.
Some nice touches for sure like being greeted at the port. Staff are friendly and kind and try to accommodate but service feels like it’s new and a work in progress rather than a finished article. Menu for food isn’t very deep, quality was good on the whole but variety and quantity of the food and drinks was lacking. Simple requests like water bottles on our exit or fresh juices at breakfast not available some days, pastries running out. Some days the menu was restrictive and one day felt like we were given yesterday’s left overs.
Gym, sport activities, bikes are included which was nice. Atmosphere and entertainment at meal times were a nice touch. Attempts were made to accommodate us and make the experience nice was appreciated such as the honeymoon welcome.
Overall it’s feels marketed and priced as super luxury but on ground doesn’t meet those same standards, somehow feels as though you have to pay even more to get things that would otherwise be included in other places despite the higher cost. "
