What did I like? Everything! This place was incredible beyond words could explain. They way it is was marketed versus the actual status was fairly similar although I would say the marketing was a bit downplayed. We were fortunate enough stay here for nearly one week as a family. We came after the family who runs the hotel had been away so mostly had the entire place to ourselves. Our flight was delayed by two hours but the wifi was not great and we could not communicate well. Their driver waited for us and drove us with care a hour into the night. When we arrived not only was a security guard at the gate but the desk manager was fully at our attention despite the nearly 1:00am arrival. He informed us we could have a full dinner served despite our delay. It was incredibly kind and they even offered us a second room which we lightly used and very much appreciated! Between these three variables we did not think it could get better or more kind. The entire week co tinted to shape up like this where each staff member was ridiculously kind with us and our children. David, one of the bartenders and servers, was always willing to share music with me. Paulina who runs the space gave three of us spa treatments in the canopy adjacent to the beach. She was beautiful and gentle in her craft. It was something I wished I had booked in with her every day. The Italian family who manages the establishment has dinner and breakfast with the guests and was always milling about. Max, or I can refer to him as the godfather, would explain the four course dinner menu each night. He was passionate about food and about the menu. We were definitely served and well attended to during this time. My only advice or words of caution include making sure you prepare your clothing to be bigger when you leave! From the simple decor of the 1800s in Zanzibar to the modern and beautiful service, it was a slice of paradise. One day we wanted to take a trip to a more wild beach and so the driver took us.

I can’t recommend Zanzibar House enough! The hotel is perfect. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The owners are very nice people and helped us with bookings for all the day trips we wanted. The breakfast is amazing, rooms are comfortable and clean. We also had a great massage there. It’s a very quiet area. So if you are looking to relax by the pool and beach, this is the place to be.
