Five Seasons Zanzibar Ocean View Hotel

It's a beautiful place. The guys organized a wonderful snorkeling trip for us. We were treated to a delicious lunch and dinner of fresh fish . It wasn 't hot at night .The ceilings are very high and I didn't even have to turn on the air conditioner. we drank coffee and admired the ocean on the highway . thanks

It takes ten minutes to get to the famous, incomparable beach, but we used free bicycles and it took three minutes.

Great staff, great weather. We really liked the papaya, which was brought to us every morning for free, as it grows in large quantities on the territory and lemurs come here at night to feast on it. we also noticed that the administration really dislikes alcoholics and those who like to make noise at night, who are sometimes among the guests . and this is understandable, since there are many families with young children living on the territory. loud drunk guests get comments , but this sometimes affects the reviews . It 's beautiful , but you have to walk to the beach . it takes 10 minutes. It wasn't a burden for us, so we liked everything.The beach is magical.The ocean here is better than in other places, we know this from experience.

there were noisy guests, but the administration made a remark to them and it helped. but it will cost the hotel bad ratings in the reviews.

Nothing, the property is not as per pictures shown in the website.

All. See just few pictures

J’ai hâte de voir cet établissement une fois terminé, le personnel était chaleureux et le gérant très sympathique, il a prix soin de nous montrer des activités et des lieux qu’on ne connaît pas

La trop longue attente pour la commande de repas

great vacation.thanks to the staff for their help in all matters. . We organized snorkeling , taxis , and suggested many interesting places to visit . The view of the ocean from the highway is amazing. everything was clean, tasty, tidy and, most pleasantly, not expensive. the ocean and beach in this area are the best on the island.

Las vistas , la amplitud del apartamento, la comodidad de las camas y lo amable que fue la anfitriona

La ducha no había plato y encima no tragaba agua con lo que se encharcaba todo el baño

Tolle Ausstattung, sogar mit Waschmaschine, Pool, Hängematte...

Leider ist der Weg zum Strand etwas aufwendig

Staff was very helpful, good hospitality They were ready to help any need we asked They served for any need we asked for (Taxi, snorkeling etc)

Availability to enter facility is little bit difficult Facility seemed not yet ready to welcome customer, it made me think that they still need time to

The proximity to one of the best dive spots in Zanzibar made this a brilliant getaway spot. The staff were eager to provide the best possible services. Our compliments to Elizabeth and staff for the eagerness to make our stay the best one. The scooter rental ($12/day) was great to get around to the beach, curio shops, or restaurant. The free bikes were a great alternative. The free WiFi was very useful. The pool area was clean and great to lounge at. The daily breakfast was fresh and very tasty.

The hotel is located a 15 min walk from the beach and not as close as depicted in the pictures. The cash-only approach means a trip to the ATM, which is 13km away, and a TZS50K ($18) private taxi ride. There was no coffee, tea, sugar, or milk in the unit. They did, however, provide a large bottle of water. There is construction on the site, which can be noisy but not intrusive during the day. In the kitchen, the pots, pans and cutlery are rusty and not to the standard of this beautiful apartment.
