An exceptional experience, I can truly say I have never had service or relaxation like it. Situated on the beautiful Indian Ocean, the breeze floating across you, the idyllic surroundings and amazing staff, I cannot fault this hotel. The welcome party and attention to detail is incredible. The spa, the cooking stations for full board, the fine dining restaurants, the starfish seeking, the golden sands and entertainment- all superb. Thank you to the amazing General Manager Dass and his fabulous crew- I will never forget my stay and will return

My mum and I stayed at Bluebay for 4 nights following a safari on the mainland. Pros: All staff (bar one or two) were very friendly and accommodating, making you feel very welcome. They even gifted us some beautiful flowers and a cake to celebrate my mums birthday. The 3 on site restaurants as well as the buffet provided a range of food, which was all fresh and delicious. I loved the food at ‘The Wok’ the most. My mum unfortunately fell ill and the on site Dr was extremely helpful, reception staff also assisted her in getting to/from his office and showed great care. And finally the surroundings - the beach and pool area are just beautiful and the hotel plenty of sun loungers so every guest has space. Cons: The hotel is a fair distance from the main attractions, so be prepared to pay very high taxi costs if you would like to go to the stone town or Nungwi beach. All inclusive drinks do not start until 11 - on our last day I asked for a bottle of water and was quite rudely told no, despite me needing this for my sick mum. I had however seen others get drinks from the same bar earlier that morning. If you want a relaxing few days to do nothing but swim, eat and drink then I would definitely recommend Bluebay.

Beautiful hotel in beautiful setting. Staff very friendly and obliging. We had a problem with the shower and they fixed it straightaway! The rooms are large and comfortable and the staff come in twice a day. Every evening the room was sprayed for mosquitoes and nets were drawn round our beds …..we didn’t get bitten once! Food was good although sometimes only warm instead of hot but always a large choice everyday and also you could choose from 3 a la carte restaurants, Italian, Indian and Chinese. Always fresh eggs cooked for you every morning and fresh pasta cooked fresh lunchtimes and evenings. We were all inclusive and I highly recommend it as it’s so much easier and not much else around. It’s the ideal place for relaxing, sea is warm and beautiful, beach is white sands. You do get pestered on the beach by the locals trying to sell you stuff but they are still polite and will take no for an answer! There was entertainment every evening normally a band and some dancers or acrobats. I would highly recommend this hotel is you just want a complete get away from it all rest and relaxation.

We stayed at the resort during Christmas and NYE and can only recommend. We got a very nice room with sea view and spend two weeks at the resort. Staff is very very friendly, always smiling and very attentive. Special thank you to Joyce, Jonathan, Jona and Juma and many more. Also the food is good, various themes every night and you can also choose from three additional restaurants on a la carte dining which is included. The highlight is definitely the beautiful beach, the amazing garden and the extraordinary service level. And the best massage on Zanzibar with Dhani from Bali, amazing to relax. We will definitely be back and are looking forward to see the renovated rooms.

Beautiful location, really nice rooms, super friendly staff and awesome food. There are different themes of food every day so the buffet stays exciting. Support the locals by going on excursions around the island and buy clothes, accessories and wood carvings on the beach.
