Blue Moon Resort

Clean room, great hospitality shown by the staffs. Thank y’all for your services.

In the middle of nowhere so need to get taxis to get to places. Our stay was nice HOWEVER they charge for everything!! Only one free refill of a glass bottle of water in the room and they charge for 500ml bottles of water for $1 each. Every lunch and dinner we had we were given free refill water (we were informed the glass bottles were refilled with drinking water however if you ordered plastic bottle you were charged $2) on the last night we ordered FREE water that was refilled but got the bill and they back tracked and said that the water was not free. We felt that reason was because they could not be bothered to adjust the bill to the correct amount even though previous times we were informed the refilled water was free. In terms of cleanliness the towels always had some stains on. Although there were faults we were content with our stay as the view and food was amazing.

The staff were phenomenal. Unfortunately, I witnessed a couple of incidents where they were spoken to in such disrespectful manners by manager and other guests.

gorgeous spacious resort beautifully designed, best in Zanzibar for a boutique hotel we have visited.quite good kitchen. Service is fine, not experienced. Front desk is quite inexperienced

Staff was amazing. Room was very clean and tidy. Made our stay very memorable and we had an amazing time. We will defo visit again.

* Access: bumpy road to access the hotel. * Violation of privacy: the general manager entered the room with his own key without knocking / saying hi / saying sorry / saying goodbye, while we were resting in bed. We complained twice at the reception, but received no feedback / apology from the manager. This is clearly unacceptable. * Bathroom: urine smell in the toilets. * Services: no activities proposed.

We planned to stay at Blue Moon Resort for three nights but loved it so much that we extended our stay. The staff were friendly, hardworking, and welcoming. Check-in was simple, and we got a tour before heading to our private pool room, which was clean, spacious, and quiet. The pool was surrounded by large palm trees, making it incredibly relaxing to float and watch them sway. The room had a minibar, Netflix, and an Alexa station, and housekeeping cleaned it daily. A couple of minor issues: the wardrobe only had four hangers, which wasn’t enough, and the shower temperature fluctuated between hot and cold every 30 seconds. The restaurant overlooked the sea and served great food. I had local traditional meals, and one night, a BBQ buffet with live music created a lively atmosphere. Breakfast was à la carte, and the vegetarian option was excellent, with fresh avocado, stir-fried vegetables, and pineapple juice. The grounds were well-maintained and peaceful. We loved relaxing on the jetty and swimming in the warm, calm sea. The beach was rocky, but we visited a Maasai shop nearby. Bring cash (USD), as the card machine had issues. My wife had a reasonably priced full-body massage. The dogs and cats were tame, but a monkey on a lead seemed unfairly restricted.

The location is calm and peaceful. Away from the noise. Staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to be welcoming. Room was beautiful.

This is going to be a lengthy one, however, if you are interested in staying at here, this will possibly be the only review that is need. For starters, the ride is about an hour and a half away from the airport, which we were aware of. The scenery is beautiful, roads are pretty bumpy but nontheless, it’s beautiful. Upon arrival to the hotel, we assumed we were being kidnapped because the hotel is in an alley on an extremely rocky road with absolutely nothing surrounding it besides trash & wild animals. We were even afraid to leave the van. However, once inside, the grounds are beautiful! Staff is amazing, pools are cleaned daily, food is great & the grounds are very clean. The 3 stars come in when we entered our room. If you are not a fan of insects, do NOT stay here. You will not sleep peacefully! After waking around the room to check things out, we came around tons of dead insects, termites were visibly chewing away at wooden baskets in the bathroom, you can see the wood dropping little by little, huge spiders & dead worms were on the sink, crickets were everywhere, we were killing insects & the robes were as hard as the wooden baskets. I decided to lay on the bed & read my kindle since it was pretty late & the pillows had tons of dead bugs on them. While reading my kindle, I felt something drop on my chest. It was a WORM! The ceilings are decorated with tree trucks and worms constantly fell from the ceiling. We stayed for 3 nights & I am still suffering from insomnia.

Very nice and quiet, the water and lights goes out quite a bit here, always a low tide so swimming is not possible shoreline coved in sharped rocks, Paje is a much better area and magnificent beach please go there, not much here in blue moon.. very nice people here, if your looking for peace and quiet maybe then this blue moon is for you.

Very nice and welcoming staff

Internet issues. Bad connection

The place is fabulous, quite Weather is nice you can see all seasons in one day The resort is quite and nice There are some small details the resort need to consider like: 1- water in room .. 2 bottles for a day is not enough and shouldn’t be chargeable if I need more. 2- the need to install Shattaf in bathroom since many muslims visit this resort. 3- the water in the bathroom is salty 4- must provide tissue in the room

I enjoyed my stay very much. Other than my now fiancé(I proposed there), Ayubu was the highlight of my stay. He was gracious, kind, always smiling, and always uplifting and upbeat of a host. I’ll definitely come back here for my wedding if he is still there!

Loved it

Nice place to relax and enjoy the moment. Very friendly and welcoming staff. breath taking view.

We liked quality of the furniture around the pool area. We had a pool room that was lovely and spacious inside and out although the beds are a little firm for our liking. Everywhere was very clean and well tendered. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Down side is its a little isolated and quite expensive to get anywhere by taxi. The quad bikes are an excellent idea but we found them overpriced for the 4 hours you got.

Defiitely a nice place. Very good food although a little expensive. Check out time at 10am is really too early!

Small friendly resort very well run The pool area is really nice with a large pool, rooms are very spacious and spotlessly clean. As there is nothing much around the resort most people stayed on at nighr to eat and good was excellent. The best thing about the resort is the staff they are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble by the time you leave you feel like family.

I loved staying at Blue Moon Resort. However, I wish they had communicated that there is no beach at the resort. It would also be great to have a bigger menu.
