The ocean view from our room at S&S Hotel was absolutely breathtaking. We loved waking up to the sight of the sparkling sea every morning, staffs are the epitome of professionalism and hospitality. They went out of their way to ensure that every moment of our stay was perfect and unforgettable,bar is the perfect place to unwind after a long day of exploring since we were also doing some tours and activities around the island, The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff made us feel right at home, restaurant is a culinary delight. From breakfast to dinner, every meal was a feast for the senses and it's always fresh food, juice even fruits fresh and sweet 😋, swimming pool is a true oasis. We loved taking a dip and cooling off while enjoying the stunning views of the surrounding landscape, this was like living a premium dream ❤️.

I travelled with my elderly parents and our stay at Equalia Boutique Hotel was wonderful. Its proximity to the ocean is brilliantly close, you can take a swim and within a few meters you're back to the hotel watching life pass you by on Jambiani beach. Walking along the beach in Jambiani is safe and whilst there are some people selling items, with a polite no thank you, they leave you alone. We enjoyed many long walks and we also saw the magnificent sunrises whilst we did our morning yoga on a few occasions. Breakfasts were included and were delicious comprising of fresh fruit, fresh juices, eggs, pancakes and bread. We also enjoyed the lunches and dinners, the seafood platter is divine as is the vegetable curry and rice. We also drank plenty of fresh coconut water, scooping out and eating the coconut flesh as well. The staff at the hotel were incredibly kind, helpful and fun to be around. There are plenty of excursions that can also be organised for you. We didn't hire a car but took taxis which were very easily booked through the hotel. Paje beach and restaurants are a 10 minute ride away and worth a visit, the beach there is also stunning. We spent a couple of afternoons idling our time at Mr Kahava's where the food is also good. Stone Town is 1.5 hrs away and definitely worth a visit. They management can also organise airport transfers upon arrival and departure. There is more I would like to have done during our stay, it just means we have to come back again and I'd definitely stay at Equalia Boutique Hotel without hesitation. Asante Sana Equalia team, see you again sometime. Varsha, Laxmi and JJ

Check-in? Smooth as butter. Room? Cleaner than most 5-star hotels I’ve seen so far. Outside terrace? It’s literally Bali combined with Zanzibar. Staff? Friendliest people I’ve probably ever met. Food? The chef should be praised 24/7. This is just a summary of everything that should interest you. We arrived at Coral Rock at around 9am, knowing that check-in is usually at 2pm. We were greeted at the reception by a lady that informed us that the former guests will be leaving and as soon as the room is properly cleaned, we can go in. We left our luggage at the reception and proceeded to relax in the restaurant area while we waited. We had coffees, fruit platters and fresh juices and were entertained by Jerry, a staff member of Coral Rock. We had a very pleasant conversation, he had a wonderful smile and just made time pass easier. After what seemed to only be 5 minutes (but was actually 3 hours), we were informed by another staff member that the room is ready. We proceeded to go to the reception to get the luggage - gasp - which was gone. Instead, the bags were waiting for us in a cool AC’d room, with a big bed full of flowers and fresh water bottles. To die for! This is just our first story with Coral Rock. The following days were amazing as well. Each day we dropped our key off at the reception so housekeeping can occur, which was done very seamlessly. The staff members always made sure to ask us if we need anything and if everything is to our liking. Now, the food… The food! We ate the greatest octopus and calamari ever! We also had a Swahili style seafood coconut curry, which was absolutely (again) to die for. Now, I’ve seen some bad reviews of the tuna tartaki (basically tuna steak), with people saying that it would always be way too dry and cooked extremely well done, which of course is not ideal with this dish; I decided to venture and try it out to see for myself. Needless to say, the reviews were either outdated or simply written by people that have nothing to do whatsoever with food, because it was cooked to perfection. Perfectly medium-rare in the center and crusted with toasted sesame seeds? It was absolutely mesmerizing how perfect that dish was made. I absolutely adored every single part of this experience. Other great dishes include the beef ramen, the grilled veggies & calamari salad, the pineapple tart, the curries, and the list could go on and on and on. I was pleased to see the chef and his (cutest toddler ever) daughter, and I would congratulate him all day everyday if I could. We even got to enjoy a stunning floating breakfast! I can’t describe this place enough. I had high expectations, but Coral Rock exceeded them and then some! Please don’t base your decisions on old, outdated reviews; you might miss out on the greatest experience ever. Note that I’m writing this with 10 days left in my stay here. I just couldn’t wait anymore! I’m extremely pleased.

Come facciamo sempre durante i nostri soggiorni a Zanzibar ci piace esplorare e scovare nuovi Hotel per poterci soggiornare la volta seguente, alloggiando vicino, abbiamo notato il nuovo l'Alma Boutique Hotel ( credo Ex Villa de Coco ) e che dire ne siamo rimasti davvero colpiti dall'eleganza ! Quindi una sera ci siamo andati per un cocktail e un gelato . Location elegante , sala Ristorante molto bella , un ambiente raffinato, abbiamo ordinato un Mojito e una coppetta di gelato al cocco, dunque il Cocktail era molto ben fatto e presentato bene, il gelato seppur buono di sapore l'ho trovato un po scarso due palline piccole e incomplete , visto anche il costo di 5$ , tuttavia riconosco la qualità del prodotto. Lo Staff è stato cortese ed accogliente, abbiamo fatto un giro per vedere l'Hotel e confermo l'attenzione al dettaglio, bella la spiaggia privata, non posso commentare le camere perchè non abbiamo soggiornato. Prezzi in $ , superiori alla media, ma in linea con un 5 stelle. Torneremo sicuramente .

we arrived at Jambiani White Sands by taxi, as soon as we arrived the hotel staff came to collect our bags and took us to the hall (in perfect bungalow style) they sat us down and offered us a welcome drink, a fruit smoothie fresh. after which they explained the place to us and took us to our room. the place is wonderful, bungalows on the very fine white beach, the sea a little green a little blue and blue and you can see from the window it is one step away from the rooms really on the beach like in the films. The staff is very kind, they make you feel at home, they explain all the secrets of Zanzibar and their territory. we also did some excursions recommended by Joka who guided us through the local wonders. The excursions are highly recommended, they take you step by step to the places you want to go, explaining everything and making you experience this wonderful country. The restaurant inside the structure is also highly recommended, with very fresh peece cooked on the spot. truly a paradise Thanks to joka mohamed and ibra for the experience you gave us siamo arrivati al Jambiani White Sands in taxi, appena arrivati il personale dell'albergo è venuto a ritirare pe nostre valige e ci hanno portati nella hall (in perfetto stile bungalow) li ci hanno fatto sedere e offerto un drink di benvenuto un frullato di frutta fresca. dopodiche ci hanno spiegato il posto e portati alla nostra stanza. il luogo è meraviglioso, bungalow sulla spiaggia bianca finissima, il mare un pó verde un pó azzuro e blu e si vede dalla finestra è a un passo dalle camere veramente sulla spiaggia come nei film. Lo staff è gentilissimo, ti fanno sentire a casa, ti spiegano tutti i segreti di Zanzibar e del loro territorio. abbiamo fatto anche delle escursioni consigliate da Joka che ci ha guidato nelle meraviglie locali. consigliatissime le escursioni, vi accompgnano passo a passo nei luoghi dove volete andare, spiegandovi tutto e facendovi vivere questo paese meraviglioso. consigliatissimo anche il ristorante all'interno della struttura, il peece freschissimo cucinato al momento. veramente un paradiso. Grazie a Joka, Mohamed e Ibra per l’esperienza che ci avete fatto vivere

I had a great two-night stay at this hotel, which looked like a cute holiday resort - perfect for relaxing after a 6-day safari. The staff were incredibly nice, and my room was cleaned after each night, which I really appreciated, even though it’s standard practice. There was only a flat sheet provided instead of a duvet, which confused me at first because the air conditioning made the room quite cold at night. However, after experiencing the heat and humidity of Zanzibar the next day, it made sense 😂 The bed was comfortable, the shower was clean with hot water, and the pool was beautiful. You can explore nearby villages, and the locals were so friendly. I even followed some local girls to a wedding on Friday 😆 Kids waved and smiled at me, and a few ran up to give me a hug! It was beautiful to see them enjoying themselves with simple, real activities like riding bikes and rolling car wheels, instead of being glued to technology. The whole atmosphere felt very vibrant and authentic. I didn’t try the restaurant, so I can’t comment on the food, but the breakfasts were nice. I spent an evening at the hotel bar, and the staff were great - friendly, funny, and they made good cocktails. They also ensured I reviewed and signed the bill at the end, so there were no issues with payments during checkout 😊 Asante Sana!
