Indigo Beach Zanzibar

We stayed in the beach bungalows, and the rooms were stunning. Outdoor shower facilities, two story building, a few issues here and there with the plumbing which were quickly solved, but the team was absolutely amazing, they prepared a special set up for a private dinner, and the food was home made and off menu and absolutely delightful. The views to the beach were incredible (would definitely recommend a sunrise early wake), with the beach only a few meters away. Breakfast was a mix of a la carte and buffet, lovely and gentle service, sunny throughout and the area has wind so you'll never overheat. The pool and service there was incredible, there's sufficient shade everywhere, and the prices are more than reasonable.

Good pool, quiet location, nice rooms, right on the beach. Friendly staff. Good lunch menu. Staff put on a free drink and some singing for being Booking.Com guests.

Breakfast a bit underwhelming, and a set menu for dinner a bit limited especially for fussy kids. That said, they did provide pizzas for kids on last night when requested. Not the easiest place to get taxis to/from. Hotel will arrange a return trip to Paje for $20USD……its about $4USD each way of you grab a taxi off the street.

Very friendly ànd helpful staff. From Anna, Penda, Combe the superman and Omar at the reception to the restaurant staff, Joyce, Mary, Upendo and all the rest plus the Chefs Rebecca and Ana, so lovely and welcoming and always 😄 Also loved the location of the Bungalow which was right next to the sea.

There was no dedicated Bar, and the restaurant was away from the sea, so no sea breeze. Also too much honey bees and flies around the diners during food times! 🥺

Indigo has 2 pools to choose from.

The rooms don't have air-conditioning and the bathroom is outside, which means you cant leave toiletries outside as they bake in the sun. The ceiling fan is so high in the roof its ineffective. There is no backup power, so when the power goes (which is often) the ceiling fans go off and you lie in a pool of sweat. The wifi is really glitchy, and you need a new wifi ticket every time you get back from an outing.
