From the moment we arrived, the staff attended to our every need and made us feel truly cared for. The manager, Claudia, along with Omar, were especially outstanding—both were incredibly helpful in facilitating all of our plans and were always flexible and accommodating. They even helped arrange romantic activities on-site, which made our stay extra special. The villas were spotless and cleaned daily, which added greatly to our comfort. This ended up being one of my favorite places I’ve ever stayed, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Zanzibar. Anything that wasn’t readily available at the resort was seamlessly arranged by bringing someone in from town, making it feel like there was almost no need to leave the property at all. An unforgettable experience from start to finish. ##### Adedamola Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kenneth 2 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This resort is pure luxury, all of the staff was amazing.

We stayed in a beachfront villa Y3\. Everyone was amazing from Tess at the front desk to Emile and Esther in the restaurants. They made our anniversary very special. So thankful. Omer on checkout was amazing as well. ##### Javanell Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Lasse 27 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service #### Looks like luxury, run by amateurs Unfortunately the only luxury thing about this resort is the aesthetics. Upon check-in we were informed the three restaurants advertised is not open simultaneously, which means you only have one place to have breakfast, lunch or dinner, which is misleading when you are booking a resort that says it has three restaurants (it’s more accurately one restaurant that changes location). Additionally they push you to pre-order your dinner hours in advance “to have a great experience”. Upon check-in we were also informed that if we had any issues they were there to help. Which is true, the first night our bedroom didn’t have curtains all around which means it was bright as day in the room at 6:30am, when we raised the issue that morning additional curtains was hung in the room. However, throughout our entire stay we encountered problems every day and despite willingness to fix any problems we had, we didn’t go on holiday to get any problem fixed, we went on holiday to have no problems at all. Staff is very friendly but clearly not very well trained. Out of 5 waiters we had only one looked to have any real experience in working in the service industry. We were missing items with our orders daily, they came into our villa/garden three times unannounced, they took our robes and didn’t return them, turndown service was missed and generally just very insecure service. We also ended up having breakfast at the villa on occasions as there were too many bees to eat at the beach lounge. ##### Lasse Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mohammad 2 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had an exceptional stay at Ycona Luxury Resort—truly one of the best resorts I’ve ever visited. The villa was beautifully designed, combining luxury with lush greenery and a variety of trees that created a peaceful and refreshing atmosphere. As a wildlife enthusiast and photographer, I was thrilled to spot incredible species right from the resort grounds, including a Zanzibar Red Colobus monkey, a Red Squirrel, and the stunning Woodland Kingfisher. Everything about the stay felt curated and serene—from the elegant layout of the resort to the natural surroundings. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious yet nature-filled retreat in Zanzibar. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e7486ed-5559-409f-b753-422520283b9c-1754130898146.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0d190dcf-ad0a-4559-b428-d5973674fb1e-1754132270539.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7e24511d-a9f5-4934-8068-16c663e7d917-1754132276011.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/852609a3-07bc-4b3d-8ef4-ae69a95cae90-1754132403936.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mohammad Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### BARRY NELSON 26 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities 1\. We scheduled a special birthday dinner on the beach but they forgot it was a special birthday and didn’t bring the cake or sing happy birthday. Dinner was over and they asked us if we wanted dessert that was our clue they forgot about us. So, with hurt feelings we left for our villa. They tried to make it up to us by offering to sing and give us a cake after the next days dinner. We declined. They then wanted to bring our cake to our room. We declined. We felt that they wanted to just sell us the cake. You know. Make the sale. We were leaving in the next few days. One other surprise was that we discovered was that the room service charge was $10 per person not per room. The way they mentioned the charge “it will be $10 for room service” lead me to think it was per room not per person. ##### BARRY NELSON Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gerd 2 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wunderschönes - großes Haus mit rooftop pool.

Wir verbrachten zwei Wochen im Ycona Luxury Resort auf Sansibar – und es war in jeder Hinsicht einfach exzellent! Der Service, die Sauberkeit, die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter, der wunderschöne Poolbereich, die Restaurants und die Qualität der Speisen – alles war auf höchstem Niveau. Eine glatte 10 von 10 mit Stern! Man spürt in jedem Detail, dass hier mit viel Liebe, Achtsamkeit und Professionalität gearbeitet wird. Das gesamte Team hat uns mit einem Lächeln empfangen und dafür gesorgt, dass wir uns vom ersten Moment an rundum wohlfühlen. Das Resort liegt in Uroa, einem eher ruhigen Teil der Insel – perfekt für alle, die Entspannung und Abstand vom Touristentrubel suchen. Wir wollten genau das: Ruhe, Natur und Zeit zum Auftanken. Einziges kleines Manko: In der direkten Umgebung gibt es nur wenige Restaurants oder Bars – dennoch war das kulinarische Angebot im Hotel so hervorragend, dass wir kaum etwas vermisst haben. Zudem haben wir auch viele Ausflüge unternommen. Alles in allem war es ein traumhafter Urlaub, der uns noch lange in Erinnerung bleiben wird. Ein Ort, an den wir definitiv gerne zurückkehren. Besonders zu hervorheben ist, dass wir kostenlos auch früher einchecken konnten in unsere Villa und ebenfalls wurde uns auch das Frühstück für diesen Tag nicht berechnet. Danke an das gesamte Ycona-Team für zwei unvergessliche Wochen im Paradies! 🌴✨ ![Jungle Villa](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5076b782-e2dc-4040-b8a1-0ecceab618ee-1761297391558.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Pool](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f202e28d-a817-48cd-9f90-a6fd7700285c-1761297392050.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Eingang](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c9a338f8-a67d-4b04-aefe-64b4d2cd5379-1761297391735.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Hotel Anlage](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7e55007f-bdb8-4c86-b0a7-f9315520054b-1761297391804.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Anna Maria Stayed 13 nights in Oct 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Abdelrahman 22 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service ##### Abdelrahman Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dominique 9 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Dominique Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rahel Carmen 31 Jan 2025 ##### Rahel Carmen Stayed 14 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### christophe 22 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### christophe Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ---
