Perfekt place to get away from the hustle & bustle of the city and relax in nature. The room was large and spacious (Family room) We loved the Aesthetic interior in the rooms and outside. Enjoyed a great time at the beach (at low tide). Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Amazing breakfast, very tasty food… we loved the Tuna steak.

The stay at Zan View Hotel was an amazing experience. View to the ocean from the 1st floor is amazing, the food is delicious, however, the best part of this object is its staff, especially the manager Frank :) Highly recommand !

I stayed 6 nights in Zanzibella all alone and almost didn’t leave the hotel because that’s how good it was! I had a nice peaceful garden view out of my room. I had breakfast every morning and for me it was enough options not to get tired of it for 6 days ) the pool was just amazing , that’s where I spent most of the time tanning and swimming over to the bar to get a fresh coconut or virgin passion fruit mojito 🥥 the whole hotel area is really large and very instagrammable! I was taking pictures on every corner !
One day I booked a massage and it was one of the best I ever had in my life ☺️ after the massage they let me use the jacuzzi which was just amazing ☺️ in the evenings I also enjoyed laying in the hammock and reading my book 📖
Every evening I had dinner at the hotel , they had a nice variety of food, I mostly went for Italian cuisine and it was delicious (especially tortellini). And by the way, they delivered the food very quickly)
The staff from the receptionist to waiters and housekeeping was all super friendly and helpful ☺️ I also really liked 24/7 security, made me sleep peacefully))
I’m really happy I chose to spend my vacation in this hotel and if you’re looking for a place to forget you have a job and just disconnect, this is the right one 🌴

I loved the colour, clarity and temperature of the water.
I loved the colour, clarity and temperature of the water. The sand was so soft and almost white. I didn't like the hassle on the beach though. It was easier to stay at the hotel to avoid it. But that's not why you visit another country!

Quiet part of the island with beach among the nicest.
Quiet part of the island with beach among the nicest. That meant fewer people and tranquility which was what I was looking for during that trip. The hotel was also exactly what I need. All the facilities (gym, massage, sports activities) + excellent food at a reasonable cost. And Fatma the day manager was great. A wonderful person and soul

The Food and Beverager Manager Zablon is a kind and focused man, results oriented.
The hotel is a true gem. It is on the southern part of Kiwengwa village, which is very calm and has a beautiful beach right in front. The property has a very nice beach area with hammocks, loungers and mattresses where you can hang out at the beach the whole day.
The food was exceptional, portion size and taste wise. And not to forget the staff, who were all very kind, attentive and made sure we enjoyed our stay. We fully recommend staying at this hotel in this beautiful hidden gem part of the island.
Very nice and cozy hotel. Perfect getaway after travelling around in Zanzibar in two weeks. It was really amazing to come to a nice and clean hotel where we could relax and enjoy it. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. It was clean and we got extra blankets and pillows as requested. All in all a very nice expierence for a reasonable price.
Very very fresh and good breakfast!
Also spa and massage there was very nice. The staff was very friendly and was ready to help you at any time.
The best experience in Zanzibar at Boho Boutique Hotel!! Amazing location right on the beach, above all my expectation!!! The rooms are very modern, comfortable and clean! Even the breakfast was an amazing experience with homemade bread and sweets!!! The beach very clean and the infinity pool is outstanding. It seems like 5* hotel way above our expectation. We highly revommend this boho style small hotel and definitely will come back again!
Perfect Start for our Trip around the island. small Hotel, authentically runned in Perfect Spot directly by the Beach. staff is very friendly and Helpful but without being pushy.

Our stay at Z-Lodge hotel was really great. The food and cocktails were delicious and satisfying, with each meal leaving us impressed. The ocean's colors during high tide were a sight to behold, adding to the overall experience. Our room was interesting, featuring old Zanzibarian antique furniture that gave it a unique feel. It was a fantastic choice for a relaxing retreat for my husband and me.
My holiday was incredible. Nice pool bar one dive one shot. Rooms are astounding and amazing, Staffs are friendly and loyal. The massage at the beach side woooooow such an exquisite relaxation. The hotel food with the garnish on every meal made me to eat repeatedly just to enjoy the meals, in general the hotel deserves *****. I can't wait my next holiday
Very cozy hotel with amazing and very friendly staff and hosts. The room was very spacious with clean linens and good pressure in the shower. Breakfasts were amazing and here they can make good espresso as well. The swimming pool and some shadows around it could really provide some rest from the hot weather conditions on Zanzibar.
Fantastic, great value little hotel right on the beach. Clean simple bungalow rooms which open right onto the sand. Rooms are very well set up for travellers with numerous universal power points and good Wi-Fi throughout. Great tasting breakfast and other meal options. Laura, Ania and the rest of the staff were amazing.
I liked that the beach was accessible and there is a large swimming pool. The breakfast included in the booking was buffet style and had a lot of variety. There were also activities such as aqua gym etc. The hotel also has turn down service which was great. The restaurant and chef at the beach restaurant were great.
Staff was very welcoming and best choice in Kiwengwa. the restaurant manager prepared some local dishes based on request. The beach was nice and less touristy considering the nungwi. It is almost in the center of island very accessible to all others destinations. My family really enjoyed the stay in the hotel.
Great location, approx 1hr from Zanzibar airport, $50 oneway transport, great communication thru "Whats App", driver was kind and respectful. Resort is really nice with gorgeous grounds, clean pools.
The resort mostly has a European clientele.
Workers are kind and helpful
Very beautiful hotel in a calm and less touristic area of Zanzibar! We had the top floor room with sea view for our honeymoon and we were amazed! The staff is also very helpful and caring, they even came to our room in the evenings to spay for mosquitos and fix the net of the bed!
Seashore is a lovely quiet boutique hotel made up of rustic beach bungalows a stone’s throw from the beach and a short walk to the main town. The main strip is plagued by sellers so it was so lovely to come back to the peace and tranquillity of Seashore.
Room is clean ,beach view .staff is very professional and friendly. I enjoyed my stay there . It is like paradise.Flesita and Sasha were amazing and the rest of the staff also . For sure I will come again. Kwaheri Zanzibar
