Overall Ratings & Reviews Zuri Zanzibar

The place exudes luxury everywhere! Absolutely loved the moon shower experience with no fear of being exposed as the villa is all engulfed in a vegetation facade! The room itself is carefully laid out in a very thoughtful way with an air con system that flows through the bed for a slumber I didn’t want to get out of! The bedding was exquisite! It has a very spacious balcony with a hammock and some chairs. I got to be transported for meals in a buggey! I felt like royalty! I didn’t want to leave the villa honestly but had to grudgingly! Will definitely go back without even a thought! The place is to die for!!!!!!!

Amazing services added to the property. Eco friendly. Beach amazing. Just when we asked for milk to the room they did not bring it. Food is not that great at the buffet restaurant. Gym is not a gym, some outdoor park that needs work. Security is great at the beach. Service with drinks are great. Evening sunset experience is fantastic. Resort and room and plantation is to die for. My favorite beach in Zanzibar.

Great place & location!

The rooms and property are beautiful and every staff member was super friendly and attentive. The only downside is if you leave the property and take a walk on the beach you are hounded by people trying to sell you crap. One guy literally followed me for miles. I would go back in a heartbeat but wouldn’t leave the property.

The property was EXACTLY as it appeared on the website. Beautiful grounds, including the spice garden. HUGE bungalows and being surrounded by beautiful foliage. Clean beach and easy access to the ocean. Great staff. Two blue monkeys resident in the trees. GIANT African snails all over. The food was so good. Menus changed often and I was there for one week. Accommodating staff make arrangements to see things away from the property such as tours of Jozani Forest, Stone Town and Prison Island to see the giant tortoises.

Top quality result with understated but top quality accommodation, excellent food and outstanding customer service from all members of the team. I could not rate it overall a top score because one element spoilt the total experience for us. The beach is white sand, with clear waters, but certainly not relaxing much of the time. With good reason the beach is not private. Given that it is one of the best on the island, therefore there are a lot of passing visitors. The hotel does restrict them from coming in to the property. The issue is the conveyor belt of hawkers trying to sell. They stand looking at the guests on the sunbeams, and as soon as you go for a swim, pounce on you. Add to this, impromptu african dance routines (again looking for tips), and jet skis. A great beach for people watching, but not the best a lot of the time for total relaxation and to enjoy the beauty. Not, I would stress the hotels fault. We felt that the whole threat of over tourism is a big problem on the island and needs to be addressed urgently by the Government.

Beautiful property, delicious food, great service, and an absolutely perfect beach. It was an ideal place to relax for a few days after safari.

The resort is top notch. Highly recommended.

Amazing property and great service!

Beautiful Place Too expensive beverages!!

amazing

Excelent hotel

Good experienc, it sets the expectations HIGH 1for other places where its hard to compare

Zero hygiene at the breakfast kitchen. They handle eggs with used gloves , and their ‘clean ‘ plates had broken egg shells stuck to them. Service is slooooowwwwww. If you ask for milk, sugar and coffee - that’s 3 trips for the waiter .

Service was not great. Requests were often not understood by staff or ignored. Facilities and food was amazing

Zuri Zanzibar is INCREDIBLE!! 5 Star service, stunning setting, perfect beach, wouldn't go anywhere else in Zanzibar, we have done other resorts, with both incentive groups and privately, This is by far the best resort in Zanzibar! We will be back!

I couldn't rate this place highly enough - the pictures online don't do it justice! Everything from the rooms, restaurants, pool and beach are designed beautifully and we loved how each cabin is really secluded in it's own little jungle. The food was delicious - especially in the a la carte dinner restaurant and overall the service was great. We will definitely be back in the future.

Very, very nice! I've seen a fair share of high-end resorts and I can attest with confidence that Zuri truly is awesome! We stayed in a bungalow - it is very comfortable, clean, spacious, the terrace is lovely - facing the ocean and situated on a hillside so you catch the ocean breeze. The outside shower is amazing - you can see an attention to detail at every step. The resort has an abundance of tropical vegetation - a veritable garden of Eden! The food is pretty good but can get a bit boring after the 3rd day or so. The beach is very nice - just like in the pictures! The difference between high and low tide is small so you can swim all day. Overall - very nice and worth the money!

I loved the natural set-up, everything felt organic and in harmony with nature vs other more imposing resorts.

Excellent honeymoon destination, 5 star hotel and service with a rustic feel. Will defo go back.
