The property is only about two years old, so everything in in great condition. We were the only guests one of the two nights and received exceptional service. The meals were great with serving sizes so large we were never able to finish. We initially had issues getting hot water and the staff immediately had a team out and got it fixed in no time at all. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in the area. ##### Todd Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Zanzibar Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marumbi-Hotels-Zanzibar-Bay-Resort.h27086671.Hotel-Information) > > [Diamonds Mapenzi Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Diamonds-Mapenzi-Beach-All-Inclusive.h4532521.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Melia-Zanzibar.h1407257.Hotel-Information) > > [Kiwengwa Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Kiwengwa-Beach-Resort.h11888909.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Paradise Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Ocean-Paradise-Resort-Spa-Zanzibar.h4235502.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [TOA Hotel & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pongwe-Hotels-Toa-Hotel-Spa.h75012943.Hotel-Information) > > [Kendwa Rocks Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Kendwa-Rocks-Beach-Hotel.h18030240.Hotel-Information) > > [Reef & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-Reef-Beach-Resort.h6643793.Hotel-Information) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-The-Residence-Zanzibar.h4261204.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Royal-Zanzibar-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h5563953.Hotel-Information) > > [Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Gold-Zanzibar-Beach-House-Spa.h5388856.Hotel-Information) > > [Gran Melia Arusha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arusha-Hotels-Gran-Melia-Arusha.h34865479.Hotel-Information) > > [Turaco Nungwi Resort, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Zanzibar-Nungwi.h3300267.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Emerald-Zanzibar-Resort-Spa.h78245396.Hotel-Information) > > [Baraza Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Baraza-Resort-Spa-Zanzibar.h10042688.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Ngorongoro-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h903728.Hotel-Information) > > [Pongwe Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pongwe-Hotels-Pongwe-Beach-Hotel.h8057383.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Zuri Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Zuri-Zanzibar.h20217090.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-TUI-Blue-Bahari-Zanzibar.h4532516.Hotel-Information) > > [Kena Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Kena-Beach-Hotel.h4544228.Hotel-Information) > > [Arusha Serena Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arusha-Hotels-Arusha-Serena-Hotel.h2384397.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Mersenne Zanzibar, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Le-Mersenne-Beach.h65725614.Hotel-Information) > > [ Safaya Luxury Villas (Adults Only)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Safaya-Luxury-Villas.h91433919.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h5361523.Hotel-Information) > > [Neptune Pwani Beach Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Neptune-Pwani-Beach-Resort-Spa.h4544303.Hotel-Information) > > [Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-The-Z-Hotel.h3675918.Hotel-Information)
