TOA Hotel & Spa Zanzibar

The property is very beautiful with plants all around the building is very aesthetic looking and well maintained. I like that the property it was gated. It felt very safe and even though the property was small I think the layout was very well planned. They upgraded my room and my room was super big huge windows huge bathroom very comfortable and I had a garden view surrounded by plants and I really enjoyed it. What really made this stay incredible was the Staff I wanna give a special thank you to Esther but there’s other people as well that made my stay amazing I don’t know everybody’s names but I would like to also include Sadoo, the chefs the servers every single person was so sweet the housekeeping was proactive. They remembered my birthday they made me feel special. They were so respectful, every single staff and I really hope that every single staff gets rewarded because they were all incredible. I travelled alone and I did not feel lonely not even one day and this says a lot about the staff in this incredible hotel they helped me arrange tours. They were very quick with everything even when I was having issues they would fix it quickly, for example, when I arrived, the room wasn’t ready so they offered me lunch and everybody just made me feel so comfortable and I really want to say a special thank you.

The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the beach but I kinda knew that it was gonna be like this due to the low tide in the area so yes the beach I couldn’t swim and enjoy the beach properly due to the low tide however the beach was still well maintained and it was it was nice to just lay by the beach. Also, the location is a bit tricky there isn’t much to do around the hotel area so if you want to explore more of the island, you need to have a car and it’s pretty expensive but it was okay.

The staff. Absolutely amazing people. Huge smiles and big hearts. Was a genuine pleasure to spend time with them. Manager Eric was really attentive and went out of his way to ensure we had a good time. His staff follow this high standards. Very personable and approachable manager! Massages were superb. Pili and Michi were.magic. Estor and Cicilia always smiling and welcoming at the front desk Eric leads by example. Chefs and wait staff went above and beyond. I wish I could mention everyone by name as they are a special team. A 5 star resort is more than jist the facilities. Its aboit the atmosphere

A little remote and roads are quite poor. It is very peaceful and quiet beach. Very, very beautiful though.

The hotel is very beautiful, perfect for people who want to relax away from the city and also a perfect destination for couples. I liked the dinner at the beach with a live band and also I appreciate a particular lady called Esther at the reception, who was very helpful, responsive and professional in her work. Thank you!

First of all, the staff is amazing. They are all so sweet and kind. The hotel is on a good location, and they have a great pool. Every day they try to help you and greet you on a really personal level. We got a room upgrade (from our POV; there were almost no other guests at the moment we checked in, so they wanted to locate all the guests in only two buildings, which we do understand). But the upgraded room was really nice. The beds in both rooms were really comfy and big, nice mattresses. The ac was leaking in our room and there was a lot of noise when we had doors closed. There was another guests playing hard music at the pool so we talked to the staff and they changed our room (and talked to the guy) so that's really sweet of them. They have an amazing pool area with really good beach acces and nice sunbeds towards the beach. Outside on the beach and on the road you can have some nice walkes and explore the area a little. We booked half board so we had breakfast and dinner. The food and the variety was really good. The quality of the food is amazing. Tastes really good, local style and heaps of healthy options. Two things what really had effect on our joy during our stay was the fact that the buffet opens at 1930, which was really too late for us. Because we booked half board but didn't know it'd be that late, otherwise we wouldn't have stayed here. That's a personal preference. The second thing was the really open structure from the bedroom to the bathroom. There's no door between bed and toilet area, which we really didn't like. For us a toilet is just a private space and it shouldn't be included in the room like this. Oh, and from my opinion; they aren't aloud to call their 'gym' a gym, because you can't get a proper workout done. Machine is half broken, hardly any weights and no space. Not sure if we'd go back, if we do it's without dinner but still the toilet situation is a no go for us.

Die Zimmer und der Strand waren super. Das Personal war extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend.

Das Hotel liegt an der Ostküste Sansibars. Was wir leider nicht wussten, dass die Gezeiten im Osten extrem sind. Das Wasser geht soweit zurück, dass man hier kaum baden kann. Für einen reinen Badeurlaub ist das Hotel leider nicht zu empfehlen. Das Frühstücksbuffet könnte ein wenig mehr Kreativität vertragen. Wenig Auswahl und sehr einfach gehalten. A la carte schmeckte lediglich gut. Wir haben einiges von der Speisekarte ausprobiert, gefühlt ein Fastfood Restaurant. Mit den Möglichkeiten, die man vor Ort hat (frischer Fisch, Obst und Gemüse) könnte ein guter Koch das Restaurant aufwerten. Wenn man richtig gut essen gehen möchte, geht man 5 Minuten zu Fuß auf die gegenüberliegende Insel.
