"Flott sted for de som ønsker det personlig, og litt rolige omgivelser. Julia og de andre ansatte er fantastiske mennesker som virkelig fikk deg til å føle deg velkommen."

"I had an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience with this hotel owner. We paid $2,700 for what was clearly sold to us as a 3-day tour, but after payment it was suddenly reduced to only 2 days with no proper explanation or refund.
To make matters worse, we were left at the airport without any transportation arranged, despite this being part of what was discussed. Since then, the owner has ignored our messages and refused to respond or take responsibility.
This felt unprofessional,...

"I’m happy to strongly recommend Terry’s Villa to anyone traveling to Nungwi. I stayed there with my family, and we had a spectacular experience from start to finish.
The villa itself was clean, spacious, and very comfortable — especially appreciated after long days exploring Zanzibar’s beautiful beaches. Although the villa is located a few minutes from the beach, it’s still within easy walking distance, which made getting around very convenient.
A special mention goes to the manager, Shivji, who...

"Arrived late and were greeted by staff who even made us a meal despite the late hour. Room was tired, scuffy with stained cushions. Pillows had dried blood and mold stains so needed changing immediately, which was done. Ours was meant to be Delux Garden View, we had a corridor view through front window and a brick wall view through seriously cement stained back window so we didn't open curtains during our time there. The hot water either scalding or freezing, nothing in-between. The WiFi was off...

"Just to be clear: there is no pool. And the hotel is 5 minutes walking distance from the beach. But the service is 5 stars. And they clean every day, and change the bed and towels every 2 days"

"MINUS 10 STARS!!
Went from bad to worse from the time we arrived.
From having a mess in 1 room since they were building a bed, no toiletries at all as mentioned,
Water was not working properly; lights went off in 1 room and the ac and water not working in another.
Then went in total darkness with no back-up generator available and we were told it happens all the time.
Staff was hard to find even with a 'reception' area.
All around a horrible experience. Plus, we forgot to take 1 item...

"Property was ok with good location. Soft furnishings within the complex were dirty and require replacement especially the mattresses on the pool chairs by the pool . . Electricity went off whilst there."

"Zuri Zanzibar is an outstanding resort and easily deserves 5 out of 5 stars. I travel extensively and regularly stay at Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton and other luxury resorts, and Zuri matches that level of quality and service.
The property itself is stunning. I was especially impressed by the beautiful landscaping and gardens, which are expansive, meticulously maintained and cared for daily. We stayed in a suite with my partner and her best friend, and it was exceptional. The suite was very spacious, with a separate living room that easily accommodated an additional bed, plus a large patio with a hammock and dining table.
Our butlers, Peter and Pia, were outstanding. They were incredibly helpful and available 24/7, arranging everything from restaurant reservations and taxis to nightlife, excursions and airport transportation. Nothing was too much trouble.
The food was excellent throughout our stay, including the breakfast buffet, beach barbecue and poolside restaurant. The beach is beautiful, the beach bar is terrific, and the nightly sunset fire is a wonderful touch. The water sports and activities staff were also friendly and professional.
We visited several other hotels in Zanzibar, and Zuri was by far our favorite property and had the best beach. Beautiful resort, exceptional service and a truly five-star experience."
"My stay at Canary Kendwa Beach Resort was one of the most beautiful vacations I’ve ever had. Everything exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived.
The resort is perfectly located on the stunning Kendwa Beach, with crystal-clear turquoise water, soft white sand, and breathtaking sunsets every evening. Swimming in the warm ocean was an unforgettable experience.
Our room was spacious, spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The bathroom was modern, and housekeeping kept everything perfectly clean throughout our stay.
The staff were exceptional—friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. No request was too much, and they made us feel welcome every day.
The food was delicious with plenty of variety, and the beachfront bar served amazing cocktails at great prices. Enjoying drinks while watching the sunset was one of our favorite moments.
We also loved the daily activities and evening entertainment. Playing table tennis and watching the international shows made every night fun and memorable. The reception team was always available and very helpful whenever we needed assistance.
Canary Kendwa Beach Resort offers the perfect combination of relaxation, beautiful scenery, excellent service, delicious food, and a wonderful atmosphere. We created unforgettable memories here and can’t wait to return. We highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Zanzibar—it truly deserves 5 stars!"
"I don't really stay in resorts so I don't have much to compare. The grounds, facilities and rooms were immaculate and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The view from my room was stunning and the beach was also immaculate. Some things did come up that made my stay a little less enjoyable.
This is an alcohol free resort, this was my fault for not realizing but there were restaurants nearby that served alcohol
We left our previous hotel to catch a flight to Zanzibar at 4am. We arrived at the hotel starving. Unfortunately it was in between breakfast and lunch so no food options. We were advised that there were restaurants that serve all day which was not the case for us. We went door to door and were told 12:30. We finally found one and it took 1 hr and 15 minutes for our food which was past 12:30! We would have been fine with a premade sandwich
Other minor things, we could not have 2 keys for our room so my friend and I couldn't really do our own thing without one of us being locked out. It also would have been helpful to have an ATM nearby. We wanted to leave tips but ran of of cash"
"Beautiful place & beautiful people. Very welcoming, food was gorgeous and different every night. They upgraded my room as returning customer and I fell in love all over again 😍.. no moans over here, just smiles ✨️"
