I sailed as a sea captain all around the island, including Pemba island. I spent here almost 2 months altogether. From tourist places, I liked Nungwi beaches. You have to know, most of tourist resorts are situated outside of local civilization. If you want to go shopping or to the local restaurant, you need to order a taxi everytime and the prices are high. The food and alcohol is quite expensive even for europeans. The locals are kind, although sometimes annoying if they are selling something. I felt absolutely safe, more than in EU. Traffic in the inlands is terrible, try to avoid travelling on these roads. Negotiate the price (taxi etc) before drive. They are able to ask 50 USD for 3 kilometres of ride after. If I could decide, I would try another exotic islands. Zanzibar needs 5-10 years to improve the services for tourist, infrastructure etc.

Navigating Zanzibar City was surprisingly easy, with an array of transportation options available. The compact size of the city made it convenient to explore on foot, with many attractions within walking distance of each other. I would definitely suggest trying the local Swahili food for fresh fish and seafood.
For a visitor from South Africa, I found the price of food and drinks at restaurants relatively expensive.

Paradise Found: Zanzibar's Enchanting Beauty
Paradise Found: Zanzibar's Enchanting Beauty
Zanzibar is simply one of the best places on Earth. Its beaches are nothing short of breathtaking, with pristine sands so fine they feel like silk beneath your toes. The tranquil waters, gentle and calm, create a mesmerizing backdrop that captivates the soul. My love for this place knows no bounds; it's a sanctuary of unparalleled beauty and serenity.

Different styles from different times (african, muslim, maybe also european). Interesting experience is the market place and the night market for dinner under the stars. Also the hammam is worth to visit (with good gide)!

It was lovely and we got to see the history of the slave trade (albeit sadly as it was a horrendous practice). The beaches are also very beautiful (Jambiani Beach was where we mostly went.) The spice farm tour and markets were lovely as we got all kinds of fresh spices.
However, it is very tourist-centric. Payment is in dollars everywhere and people are always trying to sell you something. Feels very commercialised.
I have booked this place only to have a chance to sleep for 5-6 hours. I came to Zanzibar at night around 4am so until I could go and check in to other hotel near the beach I decided to find something cheap and close to airport to get some sleep so I only stayed at this hotel for 5 hours so I cant say much. But the receptionist were nice and room is ok. If its just for 1 night to stay near airport because you need its fine, otherwise for longer stay in too far from city center and there is nothing around that much near hotel.
I stayed at this hotel with my husband. We booked the presidential suite with a sea view. Waking up in the morning and going out to her balcony to watch the sea, people on the beach and the ships was worth every single penny. Imagine just lounging on the balcony in the evening with the quiet bustle and ocean sounds. We loved it so much that we have decided to return to it on our last couple of days of vacation. The staff is super helpful and welcoming. They have amazing accommodations such as a pool where you can relax
The location and the team were outstanding.
The owner Sadaat was extremely helpful organizing trips and gave us a lot of insides about stone town.
The rooms were lovely and spacious with sea view exactly as advertised. Food was also delicious. We specifically choose smaller hotels during our holidays as we don’t like the big chains where you are just a number. Sadaat and his team really gave our time there a personal touch. We had a fantastic time at Archipelago Stonetown.
Forodhani is my second home in Stone Town. Competitive rates, big spacious rooms, and a nice basic breakfast to get you going. The hotel is in the best location. Across the road from Forodhani Park which is the central attraction in Stone Town for its famous night food markets. Also close to the beach. The hotel is a walking distance from the Ferry terminal. A great swimming pool on the rooftop. The staff is always great, welcoming, and considerate.
The old palace is wonderful to visit and the rooms are big and very comfortable. We stayed in a nice room with a balcony. The swimming pool is clean and enjoyable, definitely a good advantage of the hotel after a long walk in Stone Town during the day. 10/10 for the position as it's in the city center and all places and restaurants in stone town are reachable by foot.
Wonderful historic house directly in stone town. The employees have been kind and caring. The room (Suite) was spacious and is decorated with historical Charme. The food and drinks are good and at a decent price. We also did the city tour, the spice farm tour as well as some transfers from the hotel. Good service abs customer orientation.
The hotel is absolutely beautiful and one of the best in Stone Town with a perfect location and charming boutique feel. The staff is on top of everything, incredibly kind, and gave us the warmest welcome upon our arrival! The interior pool is dreamy and all the premises are very well kept. The rooms are also amazing and super spacious.
Second time during our 4 days in zanzibar and we opted to rebook the hotel for our stay in stone town. .
