I read reviews about this hotel and was very hesitant. I decided to book at my own risk and was very surprised. Anyone who writes nasty things about the hotel simply doesn't understand the difference between a Turkish 4 and a Zanzibar hotel.
I really enjoyed my stay at Kendwa Rocks Hotel. The beach, the view, and the sunset were absolutely beautiful. My room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly. It’s the perfect place to relax and have a good time. If I come back to Zanzibar, I’d definitely stay here again.”
Great hotel, but some niggles. Has safe parking, central location, nice staff, big rooms.
In our first block power off virtually every night 6-9.00 pm, Did get moved and was a huge improvement. Breakfast could be a little more interesting On the whole well worth a visit 😎
Nice hotel, but receptionists refuse my request to check in early and i was seriously sick that day they keep me in lobby almost 3hrs no one care
My friend was reminded them about my condition but no any action from front desk
Have a good time at Smile Beach Resort. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and tidy. In the evening someone came to close the mosquito net and sprayed the mosquito spray. Breakfast and lunch are good, and we don’t use dinner because there are many restaurants nearby.
I would like to mention the swimming pool and the seats on the beach, which are areas for improvement. They are very old and hard. The bed in the room is also very hard.
My friend and I came for 3 days and 2 nights and it was great! We arrived around 9am which was way before the check in time and they accommodated us so well and gave of coffee and fruit while they set up our room early! The room was way better than what we ever expected. The AC was the first we’ve had in our whole month stay in Tanzania! The room was spacious, had patio seating private to the room, a great bathroom, and very nice decor! Breakfast was good and the staff was extremely kind and accommodating to any needs. The location is great and a 5 minute walk to the beach and a great restaurant called Maisha that we ate at almost every night. The area felt very safe too! Even at the end of our trip our flight was at 10pm and they let us leave our bags at the hotel while we spent our day at the beach, and even let us come back to change and wait until our taxi came! Overall a great stay for a great price, we were so glad to have gotten the chance to stay here!
Для своей стоимости, отличный вариант бюджетного отеля. Завтраки скромные, но мы наедались: омлет, три вида фруктов по 1-2 кусочка, что-то из выпечки. Чай или кофе из банки, свежевыжатый сок.
Номера чистые, хорошее белье. Пляжных полотенец нам не выдавали, но нам и не нужно было. Убирались каждый день. Смена белья по запросу. Полотенца меняли раз в три дня. Нас не смущало. Гель для душа и шампунь были в душевой, мыло. У нас была маленькая вилла в глубине отеля, в номере диванчик, сейф, холодильник. Возле виллы душ, что бы смыть песок с ног. Мы на пляж выходили босиком.
Очень милый персонал. В номере кондиционер, спасает от жары.
На пляже ресторанчик, можно заказать блюдо и шезлонг бесплатно. Отливлв почти нет.
Мы гуляли по побережью, меняли пляжи. Это не лучший, но рядом слева много разных мест.
Трансфер в отель и из отеля заказазывали в отеле, все чётко по времени.
Very Good

Very Good
We were warmly greeted by the staff at the entrance. I had booked a deluxe room and had arrived early, would have appreciated an early checkin but the room wasn’t ready so meanwhile I explored the resort amenities. It has a private beach with a mini golf area and a bar alongside. The staff is friendly but most of the staff is new, a bit slow but they get you what you need. Maybe that’s how they’re wired, I’m unsure but they were kind. Pictures don’t do enough justice to this property. It’s massive, beautiful interiors with high end quality products. Loved the spa, felt so rejuvenated and I loved their bathing product line, the shower gels, etc. It’s ace quality. Food was good. They had live performance that got everyone on flood. It’s one of the best properties I’ve stayed at.
Amazing stay! I wished I had found this place before my previous booking. A mistake in my arrival date forced me to look around the area to find another hotel when I found Amaan hotels. Best choice ever! Great service, location right by the beach, breakfast buffet was a feast and the rooms have all you need after a day by the beach and pool. I would definitely choose this hotel again!! Perfect for all types of travellers!!
This hotel is very nice if you think about the price to quality ratio. People who work there are ok. The hotel is clean and has a nice restaurant inside that serves many dishes. There was music during the day and the cleaning service did a good job. The only thing that is not on is not about the hotel but about the area - when we get out of the hotel many street and beach vendors aggressively approach us. The hotel is ok so you can go there and rest for even a few weeks but the area is dangerous so stay safe in the hotel. Some of the street vendors are so rude that they are going after you from the beach to the hotel main door where the body guard stops him.
The Lux Marijani Zanzibar hotel was a DREAM ✨ The hotel getaway you never knew you needed. The hotel is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes away from the airport. Upon arriving at the hotel we were warmly greeted by hospitable staff and amazing refreshments 🍹 The transition to our room was seemless thanks to our wonderful concierge Temba 👏 The room was beautifully decorated and spacious with a great view of the hotel’s private beach. It was equipped with a hair dryer, bathrobes, slippers, a kettle and a TV (with YouTube access). The hotel is perfect for couples and family alike. With an extraordinary food menu from its three restaurants. The hotel offers regular themed buffet meals ( Mexican Night/ BBQ Night) for its guests. It offers meals right around the clock: Breakfast ($35 usd), Lunch ($35 usd) & Dinner ($45 usd). There is also an option to pay from all-inclusive meal packages upon arrival. Special shout out to Chef Desi for his mouthwatering coconut delights, I will miss that the most! 😂 The hotel’s facilities also include a pool 🏊♀️ and a gym 🏋️♀️ (open from 7am-6pm). There are also various daily activities like Marco Polo, table tennis, art class, cooking class and beach volleyball to name a few. It was overall a great experience staying at the Lux Marijani Zanzibar and I would urge everyone to enjoy this experience on their own. Whether it’s dancing the night away to the music of the live band or just taking a sunset stroll on the beach. It was truly a life-changing and I highly recommend staying here. You can thank me later❤️❤️❤️
The beach at Nungwi Dreams is peaceful and quite. Ideal for a perfect getaway. High standard of leaving which I could recommend any day any hour. The breakfast buffet wow it's the best that I have ever experienced in Zanzibar.
Very Beautiful & Excuisite Hotel & Stay Great location just a few minutes walk to the Beach Its opposite Baraka Aquarium where you can visit animals & swim with turtles 🎉 Very good customer service 🫠 Great Breakfast 😃 I would recommend it for your stay in Nungwi
Great for the price, only stayed for 1 night so didn’t get to use the pool but the room and breakfast were great. Although the ‘Sea view’ room only saw a sliver of the water over the trees
We have mixed feelings about this resort. First, it is located right next to Nungwi Beach, making it easy to book various tours. Most of the staff are very nice, friendly, and helpful, and the entire resort is well-designed. However, two friends of mine ordered drinks at the pool, and the staff charged them incorrectly. My friend only discovered this in the morning when we were leaving. The concierge staff was not helpful; he promised he would look into the receipt after we left. When my friend called a few days later, the staff who answered hung up on her, and she was never able to get through again. Also, the staff didn’t tell us about how early we should call to order takeaway breakfast. We called at 10 PM the night before, and the staff member said she would see what she could do because it was already too late. In the end, we didn't have any food to take with us.
From the moment we stepped inside the reception to the time we checked out, we had the most memorable stay. The whole resort was beautifully presented, clean, luxurious and peaceful. We booked the partial sea view room and it was fabulous from all the little details inside to the private verandah outside, perfect for relaxing whilst reading a book or watching the boats go by on the sea. The infinity pool was in pristine condition, the breakfast and dinner buffet had a great selection and the Jetty restaurant was convenient for lunch too. The service all round was exceptional, everyone was friendly, helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience. We will be recommending Essque Zalu Zanzibar to our friends and family and are looking forward to visiting again!
