Guest Reviews

• Pénélope (6/5): Beau lieu pour ce détendre et profiter du calme de l'océan - J'ai adoré la localisation des bungalows avec une merveilleuse vue sur la plage. J'ai aussi adoré le service du petit déjeuner qui peut être servi a n'import qu'elle heure de la journée ! J'ai trouvé beaucoup de petits insectes morts sur mon lit, j'ai d'abord demandé à changer de chambre, cependant c'était aussi le cas dans l'autre chambre et le lendemain. Il semblerait que cela soit du au spay anti-insecte que l'hotel utilise lors du passage du personnel de ménage.
• Nuria (10/5): Increíble! - Bungalow frente al mar y desayuno
• Katharina (8/5): Sehr schön! - Sehr nettes Personal! Die Bungalows stehen sehr nah beieinander, nur 2 m voneinander entfernt. Von daher hört man leider die Nachbarn extrem, was unangenehm sein kann, wenn die Nachbarn keine Rücksicht nehmen.
• João (10/5): Maravilhosa e tranquila… PAZ… - Simpatia, disponibilidade e acima de tudo profissionalismo… o Staff 100%… um hotel sossegado, uma zona sossegada… Nada a apontar.. Tudo excelente
• Muriel (9/5): Calme , sérénité , envie de revenir , hôtel à recommander - La gentillesse du staff , le côté intimiste de l’hôtel , calme , préserve , un vrai éco hôtel
• ELENA (9/5): -
• Dr Gladston (8/5): It was good under the circumstances - The tranquility of the place and the view and accessibility of the beachfront and the sea. The staff was awesome and helpful Tricky to locate No phones or coffee in rooms. Air conditioning lacking,not good considering the cost of stay.
• Franz (10/5): BIS AUF DIE FEUCHTE HITZE UND DIE GEZEITEN ALLES WUNDERBAR. EIN SEHR SCHÖNES RESORT - SUPER LAGE, WUNDERSCHÖNE TERASSE, EXZELLENTES ESSEN A LA CART, SEHR FREUNDLICHES PERSONAL, TRAUMSTRAND FEUCHTE HITZE, NACHTS KÜHLT ES NICHT AB, NUR DECKENVENTILATOR ( HABEN WIR ABER VORHER GEWUSST UND UNTERSCHÄTZT AUCH HABEN WIR VON DEN STARKEN GEZEITEN GEWUSST UND UNTERSCHÄTZT. DAS MEERWASSER WAR ZU WARM FÜR EINE ABKÜHLUNG, DAS HOTEL KANN NICHTS DAFÜR
• Tibor (8/5): -
• Aurelie (10/5): -
• Ana-Maria Gheorghe (6/5): Not worth it - All day breakfast, Very nice massages, good cocktails, nice reef walk and yoga, the managers seem to take feedback seriously (after we gave our feedback the manager approached us and talked about it. We received a small refund - 115$ from the 2690$ we paid, so... 4,27%. But if they improve for the next travellers it's also good) -Horrible beach (constant harassment to buy crap while relaxing on the beach chair even with the hotel security present, full with algae, 0 possibility to swim). -very long waiting times for food at the restaurant and not always received what we ordered -stained towels (we went 2 times at the reception to ask for new ones, received new ones the 3rd time after we brought the dirty ones to the reception). -It gets very very very hot in the bungalow, no AC
• Nathalie (8/5): - L'emplacement vue sur mer ! Diversité de la restauration ( peu d'évolution sur les dernières années) mais correcte
• Marian Krzysztof (10/5): - Pobyt w hotelu Sunrise at Bandas był absolutnie wyjątkowy i na długo pozostanie w naszej pamięci. To miejsce zachwyca nie tylko pięknym otoczeniem, ale przede wszystkim niezwykłą atmosferą spokoju i gościnności. Na szczególne wyróżnienie zasługuje również kuchnia – jedzenie było przepyszne, świeże i różnorodne, a każdy posiłek był prawdziwą przyjemnością. Ogromnie dziękujemy także za wspaniałą organizację uroczystej kolacji z okazji naszego miesiąca miodowego. Było to niezwykle romantyczne i dopracowane w każdym detalu doświadczenie, które uczyniło ten wyjątkowy czas jeszcze bardziej magicznym. Szczególne podziękowania chcielibyśmy skierować do Farah – za jej nieustanny uśmiech, który potrafił rozjaśnić każdy dzień, za wspaniałe zajęcia jogi, które pozwalały się zrelaksować i odnaleźć równowagę, oraz za troskliwą opiekę, dzięki której czuliśmy się naprawdę zaopiekowani i mile widziani. Cały personel zasługuje na uznanie za profesjonalizm i serdeczność, ale to właśnie Farah sprawiła, że nasz pobyt był jeszcze bardziej wyjątkowy. Z całego serca polecamy to miejsce i z pewnością chętnie tu wrócimy!
• Katrin (9/5): - Location Wasn't
• Mark (10/5): Perfect verblijf voor ontspanning - Super fijne locatie om helemaal tot rust te komen. Het ontbijt is heel uitgebreid en heel lekker, het personeel super vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De locatie aan het strand en met de zwembaden erbij kon niet beter. Wees je ervan bewust dat je even moet wachten voor het eten er is. Wij stoorden ons hier niet aan, aangezien we alle tijd hadden en in tussentijd genoten van onze omgeving en het gezelschap.
• Livny (10/5): - Our stay at Zanzibar Sunrise Bandas was wonderful. We loved our beachfront bungalow with its small, private outdoor tub, our porch and hammock. The walk to the reef and the live music were both a wonderful, free enrichment. The staff was very attentive, especially when I was sick for one day. The breakfast was very good and having the option to eat it any time was nice. The beach was beautiful and there were many restaurants within easy walking distance. It felt safe. We highly recommend this place. We signed up for a snorkeling and dolphin viewing trip that was recommended to us. It was very disappointing and over priced. The snorkeling was mediocre and between many boats coming and going. The dolphin viewing was actually a dolphin chase so that people could swim with them. It felt abusive to the animals and unsafe for the humans. I would not recommend this tour. To be clear this operator is not part of Bandas but they made the arrangements.
• Diane (8/5): Petit paradis dans la nature - Petit déjeuner et restaurant très bon (gros plateau de fruits de mer) Personnel adorable et gentil Chambre jolie avec piscine privative 2 piscines à disposition en plus de la mer juste à côté Chausson disponible gratuitement pour marcher dans l’eau (beaucoup d oursins avant d accéder au banc de sable) Activités gratuites comme cours de yoga et rift walk Autres activités payantes disponibles ( snorkeling, chumbe island etc…) Le Bungalow n est pas complètement isolé. Il y a un ventilateur pour rafraîchir (pas de climatiseur) et les geckos entrent facilement.
• Hedda (10/5): - It is rustic, charming yet modern. The closeness to the beach, activities are wonderful. Most of all the staff is amazing; always with a smile and very attentive. The rooms are super clean and the beds are very comfortable. The grounds are beautiful- a true paradise. We have stayed many places in Zanzibar but none compares to Sunrise at Bandas. Highly recommend staying here. We will for sure come again Nothing
• Alexis (10/5): Un 10/10 ! - Tout ! La chambre avec l’accès directement à la mer, la gentillesse du personnel, la qualité de la cuisine, un petit déjeuner exceptionnel ! Je recommande à 100% 😍 Rien
• Romain (9/5): -
• Vigante (10/5): - I like everything!!! Food, stuff, villa!!! everything is a perfect !!!
• Tobias (10/5): Phantastisch! - Tolle Lage, an einem entspannten Strand, gutes Essen, sehr nettes Personal, tolle Anlage Unser Bungalow war sehr schön und komplett aus Holz. Einziges Manko: keine AC. Dafür mehrere Ventilatoren
• Barbara (10/5): - Beautiful location and atmosphere, great food, no end-time for breakfast, literally right at the beach Cannot really swim in the sea because it is not deep enough
• Ciara (10/5): A fantastic beach front location with amazing staff - The staff were 10/10!! We literally couldn’t fault a single staff member! Everything from breakfast, to dinner, to cleaners, to reef walk and yoga everyone was fantastic! reception was really helpful too in organising taxis etc! Location right on the beach was lovely! Food was delicious! Would say it’s a little far from some of the big tourist activities but the hotel arranged transport for us which made it a lot easier! No AC, only fans which was a little too warm at times but was worth it for the view and the location!
• CatSev75 (10/5): Paradisiaque - Le personnel aux petits soins, le lieu à taille humaine, les chambres idéalement situées et. parfaitement décorées. Toutes les chambres n’ont pas la climatisation, mais des ventilateurs sont présents.
• Corine (9/5): - L emplacement avec vue sur l océan La décoration Tout en matériaux naturels La gentillesse du personnel La piscine Les activités gratuites proposées ( même si le yoga a été annulé) Éviter le bungalow 16 juste au bout à côté d un immeuble où il y a des gens très bruyants et d un chemin où passent et s arrêtent des gens tout aussi bruyants
• Sabīna (10/5): The best hotel i’ve ever stayed in 🥺 - Staff was super nice,absolutely amazing vibes and so authentic yet elegant! Love the overall chill vibe of the whole boutique resort. 100% reccomend !!! great free activities like the reef walk is a bonus!
• Bruno (8/5): - Tout était superbe Rien
• Paula (9/5): A beautiful, peaceful beach paradise with great food, excellent drinks, warm hospitality - A beautiful little paradise on a stunning beach in a peaceful, quiet location. The bungalows are lovely, very clean, and we received a warm, friendly welcome upon arrival. Although we’re usually not big cocktail drinkers, the cocktails here were absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. The food was fantastic, and live music created a great atmosphere. The ginger tea with lime and honey was the best ginger tea we’ve ever had. There was a very good range of activities, and we especially appreciated the complimentary offerings such as the village tour and the reef tour, both of which were very interesting and well organised. There was one incident involving another guest who was clearly psychologically disturbed and behaved in a very disrespectful and aggressive manner toward us without any provocation. We reported the situation to the staff, but in that moment the response felt insufficient and we would have expected more immediate action and support. To be fair, the team was very apologetic when we checked out and seemed genuinely overwhelmed by dealing with such an extreme guest. We understand that this kind of incident is very rare, but we believe staff should be trained to handle severely disruptive guests more decisively and draw the appropriate conclusions when situations like this occur.
• Federica (10/5): Non potevamo avere di meglio - Posizione tranquilla e direttamente sulla spiaggia; il nome è una promessa: alba spettacolare; cibo ottimo e colazione senza limite di orario e alla carta. Atmosfera raffinata
• Faraj (10/5): Au top! - L'hôtel est très beau, la vue des chambres est magnifique. Les chambres sont spacieuses et bien ventilées. Le personnel aux petits soins, toujours prêts à s'arranger. Les petits déjeuners, incroyables et très copieux.
• Amir (10/5): -
• Claudia (10/5): - Schöner, gemütlicher Bungalow am Strand, superleckeres Essen und sensationelles Frühstück, vom Hotel geführte und kostenlose wunderschöne Riff-Wanderung, super Yoga-Einheiten, kostenloser Fahrradverleih, alles Bestens!!! Nichts
• Jacob (9/5): -

Propreté irréprochable On l’adore Merci Farah et toute son équipe 🌺 Please : Rajouter une marche pour aller au bungalow 14 depuis la plage …🤗😅
• Nikolaos (9/5): - Awesome location, away from the crowds, small resort, personalized service Rooms could be a bit more equipped
• Kristin (10/5): - Nous avons passé un séjour extraordinaire dans cet établissement, autant par la beauté du site, la superbe chambre - bungalow - avec terrasse, jacuzzi et accès directement à la plage, que par la gentillesse du personnel et la restauration de grande qualité.
• Sylvie (10/5): -
• Christian (9/5): -
• Brial (10/5): -
• Federica (10/5): Non potevamo avere di meglio - Location perfetta; niente da eccepire. E’ in una zona molto tranquilla con suites direttamente su un spiaggia con colori incredibilmente mutevoli. Zona d’offerta al fenomeno della marea: ma è vicino a un paese di pescatori ed è bello vedere come si adattano (il paesaggio rimane spettacolare). Zona e comune rilassante con colazione abbondante e freschissima. Ristorante top a musica africana dal vivo raffinata. Zona yoga a spa. Ottimo per chi ama la tranquillità, la natura senza rinunciare al comfort e charme.

• dan (10/5): Extraordinaire que du bonheur à refaire !!! - L’ensemble de l’établissement est magique, j’avais peur d’avoir trop chaud sans la climatisation et bien il n’en n’est rien, nous avons dormi comme des bébés sur un matelas fabriqué à l’ancienne extraordinaire de confort. Uniquement le fait qu’aucune carte de restaurant ne soit en Français
• Gina (10/5): Komme wieder - Traumhafte Lage !!
• joelle (10/5): Hôtel d’une 15 en de chambres, l’ensemble du personnel est souriant et agréable, le petit déjeuner est gargantuesque. - La bienveillance du personnel, la propreté. Les chambres tout en étant simple sont magnifiques, digne d’un palace. Le petit déjeuner est juste incroyable ! Nous reviendrons 0
• Belinda (9/5): -
• Jennifer (7/5): Cadre remarquable, ambiance agréable, restauration décevante. - L’emplacement des chambres directement sur la plage offre une très belle expérience, rythmée par les marées. L’ambiance de l’hôtel est à la fois détendue et harmonieuse, avec une architecture mettant en valeur des matériaux naturels et un véritable esprit « pieds dans le sable ». Le personnel est accueillant, disponible et souriant. Le petit déjeuner, inclus dans le prix de la chambre, est proposé à la carte, sans contrainte d’horaire, ce qui constitue un réel confort et une attention appréciable, encore rare dans l’hôtellerie. La restauration présente un rapport qualité-prix très insuffisant, ce qui constitue un point particulièrement négatif. Les tarifs à la carte, affichés en USD, sont excessifs au regard de la qualité proposée. L’hôtel étant isolé, les clients se retrouvent de fait captifs. De plus, lors des soirées avec animation musicale, une carte spécifique — encore plus onéreuse — est imposée. Les cocktails manquent de saveur, tout comme les jus de fruits frais, largement dilués à l’eau. L’ensemble est décevant et ne justifie pas les prix pratiqués. C’est dommage.
• gregoire (10/5): Excellent Service, Comfortable Rooms, and Quality Meals - The hotel offers an excellent overall experience. The service is attentive, professional, and consistently friendly, making guests feel welcome from arrival to departure. The location is calm and well suited for rest, providing a peaceful atmosphere away from noise. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with good attention to detail and hygiene. Housekeeping standards are high and everything feels orderly and cared for. Meals are well prepared, flavorful, and satisfying, with thoughtful options available, including vegetarian dishes. Dining is well organized and enjoyable. Overall, this is a well run hotel that combines comfort, quality service, and a pleasant environment. I would confidently recommend it for a relaxing and comfortable stay.
• Beatriz (8/5): - La habitación con vistas, y el complejo en general es súper bonito, te deja kayak y bicis gratis. Sabíamos que tenían ventiladores y no aire acondicionado, no obstante, el calor para dormir era muy muy incómodo.
• Yvanna (10/5): 100000x dankjewel aan het team voor een top verblijf in Zanzibar! - Het is een accommodatie waar je volledig kan relaxen en tot rust komt. We werden er hartelijk verwelkomt en voelden ons direct thuis! De extra activiteiten zoals yoga , city tour en live optredens die de accomodatie aanbied waren erg leuk. Het eten is er ook erg lekker!! We zouden deze accomodatie aan iedereen zeker aanraden!! Misschien enkel dat er geen airco aanwezig was.
• Iris (10/5): -
• Carole (9/5): Fantastique séjour, endroit calme et isolé, un vrai havre de paix pour se ressourcer en amoureux - Villa sublime, très grande, très propre, piscine parfaite, très grand lit confortable, tout confort, décoration du lit tous les soirs, la nourriture était excellente, le staff au petits soins, la sécurité (on avait des gardes devant et derrière la villa, les massages top, le yoga excellent (merci à Nathasha et Marcos). Très jolie plage mais pas facile de se baigner en marée basse, beaucoup d'oursins. Si on reste trop longtemps sur la plage on est vite solicité par les locaux,
• Shangram (8/5): - Wonderfull location
• Colaianni (10/5): Rilassante - Accoglienza cordiale, la stanza è come in foto, pulita, luminosa e il fronte mare è pazzesco. I servizi aggiungono valore in più, consigliamo di fare la passeggiata guidata nella barriera corallina. La zona del resort è super tranquilla e ci si può rilassare molto a bordo piscina. La colazione è deliziosa come il cibo del ristorante in generale, veramente ottimo. Lo staff di tutto il resort è molto gentile e cordiale, ringraziamo particolarmente i ragazzi del bar che sono super disponibili. La spiaggia viene poco utilizzata, purtroppo, a causa dei beach boys un po’ troppo insistenti, quando magari una persona vuole rilassarsi. Ovviamente non è colpa della struttura ma bisogna prepararsi.
• Leslie (9/5): -
• Marie Anne (10/5): - Un séjour inoubliable à Zanzibar entre amies ! Nous avons logé dans un bungalow directement sur la plage (7 nuits) avec une vue tout simplement paradisiaque. Le cadre est calme et reposant, idéal pour se détendre loin de l’agitation. Le personnel est d’une grande amabilité, toujours souriant et disponible. Mention spéciale pour le restaurant : nous y avons pris le petit-déjeuner ainsi que nos repas chaque soir, et tout était délicieux, varié et préparé avec soin. Nous avons également réservé nos excursions via la réception. Tout était parfait ! Une expérience que nous recommandons sans hésitation. Nous repartons d’ici avec de merveilleux souvenirs. Merci à toutes l'équipe pour ce séjour inoubliable.
• Vivian (9/5): Recomendo muito o Sunrise - Gostei de absolutamente tudo. Localização em uma praia tranquila, com cadeira na praia para cada hóspede com bastante privacidade. Hotel lindo, rústico, mas muito confortável e bonito. Atendimento dos funcionários excelente. Quarto lindo, visual incrível do mar de dentro do quarto, limpeza impecável. Comida excelente. Nada

Un personnel au petit soin. Le restaurant pour le soir très très bon. Une mention spéciale pour le petit dej service à table avec une horaire flexible PARFAIT.
• Kimberly (9/5): Tolle Anlage an einem ruhigen Strandabschnitt - Wirklich tolle und gepflegte Anlage überall komplett mit Sand. Es gab zwei 2 Pools und einen schönen, ruhigen Strand. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker mit großer Auswahl. Am besten hat uns die Auswahl an kostenlosen Aktivitäten gefallen, die die Unterkunft anbietet, insbesondere eine Wanderung über das Hausriff, Yoga, Kayaks zum Ausliehen, Fahrräder zum Ausleihen.. Wirklich nur Kleinigkeiten: - das Zimmer war etwas dunkel - die Preise im Restaurant waren tendenziell etwas teuerer und der Service hat manchmal etwas länger gedauert - mehr Seegras als an anderen Strandabschnitten
• Eva (10/5): Très bel établissement dans un lieu soigné et paradisiaque - La gentillesse du personnel et toutes leurs petites attentions. La plage très belle .
• Melanie (10/5): -
• Stefano (10/5): - The food was simply amazing! Huge choice for breakfast and very high quality meals

• Judith Ann (10/5): Sunrise at Bandas completely exceeded my expectations! - Absolutely stunning property with beautiful villa. Everyday the staff were very attentive and made every effort to make my stay wonderful. My Villa was very clean and tidy. Location is a bit far from town, other than that everything else was wonderful.
• Господинова (8/5): - The sea view is stunning, the bungalow design is authentic, everything was perfectly clean. There are plenty of places around the hotel with affordable prices. The staff was helpful and attentive. Overall, we liked the hotel, but there were some downsides. During high tide, the water comes very close to the hotel, and at night it was quite noisy because of the waves and wind. Inside, it was also drafty, and I even caught a slight cold. The services and food were extremely expensive. I recommend booking activities outside the hotel if you want to save money. We rented a car and managed to save quite a bit on transportation. The food in the hotel restaurant was not to our taste, but a big plus is that there are many restaurants around the hotel where you can eat well. Unfortunately, we were also unlucky with the ocean, as the water was full of seaweed – though of course, this is not the hotel’s fault.Although the hotel tries to provide a sense of privacy and tranquility, in the mornings it was quite noisy due to the lively village life around the hotel, and we could also hear construction of a nearby building.
• José María (10/5): 3 dias en el Paraíso - Alojamiento increíble, en la mejor zona de Zanzíbar. Un paraíso tranquilo, romántico, playas de arena blanca con Mnemba island en frente. Todas las comodidades que te puedas imaginar y un trato de 10. La comida súper buena. Un 10. Todo de 10.
• Žaneta (10/5): -

• ANASTASIOS (10/5): Άψογο σέρβις , ευγενέστατοι άνθρωποι, άμεση εξυπηρέτηση και πολύ ασφαλές μέρος.Φανταστειτε επειδή θα φεύγαμε 5 το πρωί π - Ήταν ακριβώς η φιλοσοφία που είχαμε για το μέρος, Δική μας ευρύτερη καλύβα πάνω σε μια τεράστια λευκή παραλία χωρίς πολλούς τουρίστες Μικρή λεπτομέρεια οτι δεν είχε τηλέφωνο επικοινωνίας με τη ρεσεψιόν,, στο δωμάτιο Θέλει προσοχή εποχή που θα πάτε καθώς τώρα τον Αύγουστο είχε αρκετή συννεφιά και τι βράδυ ψυχρά Ο καλύτερος μήνας είναι ο Απρίλιος γύρω στους 32 βαθμούς
• Niki (9/5): - Struttura intima e caratteristica, molto curata, davvero bella! Staff davvero gentile e accogliente, in più ottimo cibo e mare affascinante con le sue alte e basse maree! Purtroppo durante la colazione tante api volevano condividere il banchetto con noi ed era davvero difficile mangiare... durante la cena questo problema non c'era!
• Imtiaz (10/5): Relaxing beachfront getaway with ocean views, friendly staff, and unforgettable sunrise experience. - Beautiful beaches with soft powdered sand and stunning ocean views, including breathtaking sunrises. Easy beach access, friendly locals and staff, and a relaxing atmosphere. The all‑day breakfast offered a generous variety of options. The rooms were very good, and although we experienced some issues with our bathroom, the staff were exceptionally accommodating — upgrading us to another villa with private Jacuzzi facilities and offering meal discounts for the inconvenience. Loved the reef walk experience and exploring fascinating sea creatures and marine life. The bathroom in our initial room was leaking, and the hotel is located about an hour and a half from the main airport, making the journey to get there quite long.
• Peter (8/5): Very good -
• Ivelina (9/5): Superb -
• Luisa (10/5): Amazing relaxing place for a romantic stay. - very chilled atmosphere, amazing food with unlimited breakfast orders (compared to many other 5* hotels, the food was really outstanding at bandas!!), staff was super nice and helpful. Our beach bungalow was so nice, we were able to hear the beach waves during the night! It’s quite far from the airport, but the area is very nice, also close to a snorkeling area with dolphins!
• Quijada (10/5): Romantic and way above any of our expectations - Our stay was incredible. My boyfriend planned to propose to me and he organised it with the manager who got everything going with the rest of the team. They were absolutely fantastic right till the very end. The room is gorgeous with an astonishing view. They provide shoes if you fancy a reef walk and bikes for a ride on the beach. Very romantic and chill vibes. The restaurant only served delicious meals, we particularly fell in love with the lobster tagliatelle.
