Great place to stay, the staff always help you with everything. The food is not amazing but is not bad. The only proble is the access to the property, there is no signs and it was really difficult to find the place.

We added a quick stay here before our safari and we wished we had stayed longer at Zanzibar Queen. The pool and grounds were very nice. For the beach they provided water shoes (which are needed) but best to bring your own. The manager was exceptionally nice. We were initially concerned having just one restaurant but the menu was good and we were totally happy. Some meals were not part of our package but additional meals and drinks were reasonably priced so we never felt taken advantage of. We will certainly come back.

Family holiday

We really looked forward to staying at the Zanzibar Queen given other reviews. It didnt disappoint. Fantastic location in beautifully kept grounds. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The pool area was clean and enticing. There was also boules, volleyball and badminton available to keep the body exercised. As well as table tennis and darts. The restaurant was superb. Ingredients and dishes were varied and akin to fine dining. Resort felt very private although effectively right on the beach. Rooms well decorated, hot showers and balconies facing the stunning indian ocean. A top recommendation and thanks to all the staff for looking after us so well.

Very nice hotel with a lot of attention to sustainability, you find water everywhere as there are safe water dispenser. Breakfast is very good and you do not need lunch. Dinner is a la carte and with classy style. Size of the hotel is not too big as like a village and you really feel that you are in Zanzibar just by walking on the beach. Everyday a new activity for recreation.

Relax and Enjoy

The hotel is new so everything is in great shape. The staff are marvelous - welcoming, accommodating, friendly. The pool is super warm and clean. There are wonderful places to spend the day lounging and relaxing. The food and entertainment were outstanding. As is true of all the hotels on the northeast coast of Zanzibar, the tides are dramatic and held back by the reef, meaning that at low tide there is no ocean in front of the hotel, For people who like to dive or snorkel, the hotel is close to Mnemba Island where there are great reefs and a very diverse fish population. You need to take a boat out but it is worth it.

Perfect Getaway

Deluxe Apartment Sea Facing- 10/10. Clean. Great size. Quiet. Excellent view. First floor, so avoided noisy neighbours above us. Decent, but small safe. A/C worked well. Bathroom - 10/10. Clean. Lovely shower. Bed - 10/10. Very large. Very comfy. Mozzy nets and turn down service at night. WiFi - 10/10. Very good, considering where we were. Worked fine down by the pool and even worked by the beach! Pool - 10/10. Good size. Nice and clean laid out pool area, with plenty of loungers and shade. Beach/pool towels provided. Gym - 8/10. Small, with a ‘multi-gym’ and dumbbells. No CV equipment, but room for a workout and some aerobic exercises. Did its job. Spa - N/a. Didn’t use. Staff - 10/10. From check-in to check-out, all the staff were friendly, attentive and most helpful. Special thanks to Abdul and Fatima in the restaurant. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast/Dinner - 9/10. Stayed half-board and enjoyed it all. Breakfast was standard buffet, with an ok choice, that changed daily. Dinner was a set 3 course meal and on one occasion for Swahili Night, it was a buffet. All of these we felt were very good. Never went hungry! Hotel - 10/10. Could not fault anything with this hotel. The hotel grounds are magnificent and very well maintained. The peace and tranquility was a complete joy. It is right on a beautiful beach and the sea is lovely. The appearance/decor/furniture is everything you’d want. We’d definitely recommend this tropical paradise.

Nice place

Etablissement a taille humaine, en bordure se plage, pas très loin de villages de pêcheurs. Personnel hyper gentil et serviable. Le restaurant est un peu trop "International" mais on peut manger un excellent poisson dans les restos de bord de plage. Un petit coin de paradis.

If not for clean white sandy beach

Friendly staff at front desk, but could use more smile and friendly manner at restaurant as well ^&^ When I asked for water, the server told me to get it myself without a smile. A friendly lady manager heard it and brought it for me..^&^ And, clean white beach photos fooled me thinking good to jump.. it wasn't at all cleaned up mixed seaweeds with trash, had to boat out away from beach to snorkel or swim, away from sea urchins and seaweeds..^&^

Fijn verblijf met heerlijk eten

Mooi, kleinschalig resort met heerlijk eten en genoeg entertainment. Enige nadeel is het openbare strand waar je snel lastig gevallen wordt door verkopers. Maar zolang je op het terrein van het hotel bent, is dit niet aan de orde. Heerlijk verblijf gehad!

J’ai beaucoup aimé cet hôtel. Le service et le personnel est impeccable. La nourriture est également excellente, voire gastronomique. La plage est très belle. Seul point négatif, la baignade dans la mer était plutôt limitée en raison de la présence de nombreux oursins et algues. Mais sinon, je recommande fortement cet hôtel pour ceux qui recherchent la tranquillité.

Eine hervorragende Unterkunft. Anlage und Umgebung sind wunderschön; die Mitarbeiter sehr herzlich. Der Manager / Eigentümer war jederzeit vor Ort und hat sich regelmäßig nach dem Wohlbefinden seiner Gäste erkundigt - Wünsche und Feedback konnten jederzeit geäußert werden. Wir hatten mit Halbpension gebucht. So gab es jeden Abend ein abwechslungsreiches 3-Gänge Menu. Auch hier war die Qualität top!
