"Excellent"

8.0

De keuken was boven verwachting, daar is een fijne chef aan het werk

wat er buiten het domein te doen was, is waarschijnlijk overal op Zanzibar zo. Activiteiten op het domein waren zeer beperkt. Maar als je voor platte rust gaat en een lekker diner, dan zit je goed.

"Exceptional"

10.0

We have traveled extensively across the globe, from Mauritius and the Dominican Republic to the Maldives and Indonesia. However, we have never encountered such genuine, warm, and friendly hospitality as we did here at Zanziblue. Exceptional Flexibility & Integrity: Due to the Middle East conflict, we were forced to reorganize our entire trip. Even though we had a non-refundable booking, the management proactively informed us that they would provide a full refund if we couldn't make it. This level of honesty and fairness before we even arrived was remarkable. Going Above and Beyond: After our travel changes, we arrived at the hotel at 5:00 AM. Instead of making us wait until the afternoon, they allowed us to check into our room immediately, free of charge. This was a huge gesture that far exceeded our expectations. On our final day, as our flight wasn't until 11:30 PM, they granted us a complimentary late checkout until 2:00 PM. To top it off, they then provided a higher-category room for the remainder of the afternoon just so we could store our luggage, relax, and shower before heading to the airport. Service & Quality: The food is phenomenal, and the staff is even more attentive than one could ever expect. The rooms are spotless, and fresh cold water was always provided. After every excursion, we were welcomed back like long-lost friends returning home. Summary: The location and the people here are simply magnificent. If you are visiting Zanzibar, do not miss the chance to stay here. It is rare to find a place that balances professional service with such deep human kindness. Asante sana to the whole team! We cannot recommend Zanziblue highly enough!

Nous avons absolument tout aimé à ZanziBlue L’accueil a été exceptionnel Un petit message avant d’arriver et pour nous indiquer l’emplacement, nous avons pu garer notre voiture à l’intérieur Le personnel est d’une gentillesse incroyable Nous avons profité d’un bon massage Nous avons pu rendre notre chambre, un petit peu plus tard, car étions en excursion le jour de notre départ, sans supplément Le restaurant était également très bon, bref rien à redire. Nous nous sommes senti privilégier Merci

"Clairement un lieu à éviter à Zanzibar : rien à voir, rien à faire, et pas si beau que ça."

2.0

la structure de l’établissement est agréable et typique. L’hôtel a énormément de potentiel. Les espaces sont grands et bien agencés. Avec une rénovation importante et une amélioration des services, notamment en restauration, cet endroit pourrait devenir un très bel hôtel. Cet établissement peut convenir aux personnes qui recherchent le calme absolu et qui souhaitent simplement se reposer sans activité particulière.

Malheureusement, notre expérience dans cet hébergement n’a pas été à la hauteur de nos attentes. Dès notre arrivée, nous nous sommes rendu compte que l’hôtel est situé dans un endroit complètement isolé. Si vous espérez pouvoir sortir, visiter ou simplement vous balader aux alentours, vous risquez d’être déçu : il n’y a absolument rien à faire autour. Certes, le calme est total, mais pour ceux qui aiment un minimum d’animation ou d’activités, c’est compliqué. Le soir, à part dîner, il n’y a strictement rien à faire si ce n’est retourner dans sa chambre. L’accueil a été correct, mais la déception a été grande en découvrant nos chambres. On voit que l’établissement essaie de faire de son mieux pour les rendre agréables et l’espace est plutôt grand, ce qui est un point positif. Cependant, tout est très vieux, rafistolé, et une mauvaise odeur persistante se dégage des chambres. Cela donne une impression générale de manque d’entretien et de rénovation. Concernant la piscine : vue d’en haut ou en photo (notamment avec un drone), elle paraît magnifique. En réalité, de près, elle est abîmée à plusieurs endroits. Elle reste agréable grâce à la proximité avec la plage, mais nous nous attendions à quelque chose de beaucoup plus beau et mieux entretenu au vu des photos, qui semblent dater de plusieurs années. La plage, parlons-en : oui, le sable est blanc et visuellement c’est joli. Mais l’eau est malheureusement très sale. Aller un peu plus à gauche ou à droite ne change rien, c’est la même chose partout. Le plus gros point négatif reste la restauration. La qualité des repas est très mauvaise. Que ce soit au petit déjeuner ou aux autres repas, rien n’était bon. Plusieurs d’entre nous ont été malades à un moment ou un autre durant le séjour, ce qui est vraiment inacceptable. Cet hôtel a clairement du potentiel, mais il nécessite une rénovation importante et une vraie amélioration de la qualité des services, notamment en restauration. Si nous avions su tout cela à l’avance

"An unattractive destination in Zanzibar, and a hotel with strong potential but far old and outdated"

2.0

The structure of the establishment is pleasant and typical. The hotel has enormous potential. The spaces are large and well laid out. With significant renovation and improvements to the services—particularly in the restaurant—this place could become a very beautiful hotel. This establishment may suit guests who are looking for absolute peace and quiet and simply wish to rest without any particular activities.

Unfortunately, our experience at this accommodation did not live up to our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we realized that the hotel is located in a completely isolated area. If you are hoping to go out, explore, or simply take a walk nearby, you may be disappointed: there is absolutely nothing to do around the hotel. While the peace and quiet are total, for those who enjoy at least a bit of activity or entertainment, it can feel limiting. In the evening, apart from having dinner, there is strictly nothing to do other than return to your room. The welcome was decent, but the disappointment grew when we discovered our rooms. You can see that the establishment is trying its best to make them pleasant, and the rooms are fairly spacious, which is a positive point. However, everything feels very old and patched up, and there is a persistent unpleasant smell in the rooms. This creates an overall impression of poor maintenance and lack of renovation. Regarding the swimming pool: from above or in photos (especially drone shots), it looks magnificent. In reality, up close, it is damaged in several places. It remains enjoyable thanks to its proximity to the beach, but we were expecting something much more beautiful and better maintained considering the photos, which seem to be several years old. As for the beach: yes, the sand is white and visually appealing. Unfortunately, the water is very dirty. Walking a little further left or right makes no difference — it is the same everywhere. The biggest negative point is the food. The quality of the meals is very poor. Whether at breakfast or during other meals, nothing tasted good. Several of us were sick at one point or another during the stay, which is truly unacceptable. This hotel clearly has potential, but it requires significant renovation and a real improvement in the quality of its services, especially the restaurant. Had we known all this in advance, we would not have chosen to stay here.

"Great place"

10.0

Relative small place. Good food. Low tide there is a guide to help explore the reef on foot. Very interesting. The hotel provides reef walking shoes

Sea grass on beach but always cleaned up. Not good ocean swimming except high tide. On the other hand low tide provides lots of locals fishing, collecting,sea weed farming to observe.

Le calme, la gentillesse et la disponibilité du personnel, la qualité des produits et la cuisine saine et exquise du chef où chaque produit est naturellement mis en valeur. Nous avons également aimé la démarche eco-responsable ( fontaines d'eau à disposition de chaque chambre, les savons naturels etc...) la vue exceptionnelle de notre chambre mais aussi la qualité du service de ménage réalisé avec une tres grande rigueur.

Personalen. AC. Maten. Erbjudanden och aktiviteter. Vänligheten.
