Tulia Zanzibar Unique Beach Resort

All was perfect, rooms are amazing, the staff is there for you, but very discrete, anticipating all your needs and smiling all the time. Kindness is the master word in a peaceful place.

Stunning hotel with very attentive staff where nothing was too much trouble. A great place to simply relax and do nothing. Excellent breakfasts and good choices for lunch and dinner with menus changed daily. Spotlessly clean with large air conditioned rooms.

Top notch service from check in to check out. The staff was incredibly kind and accommodating to any request. Highly recommended!

We had an unforgettable experience at Tulia Zanzibar during our honeymoon. The food was absolutely amazing—truly high-end and exceeded our expectations. The service was beyond phenomenal; the staff were some of the best we've ever encountered, with Joseph standing out as an exceptional member of the team. They made us feel incredibly special, surprising us with thoughtful little touches throughout our stay. The property itself is stunning, offering a serene and picturesque environment. We also loved the farm, which provided fresh, garden-grown fruits and vegetables, adding to the overall charm. Highly recommend!

Our best holiday EVER. Amazing people awesome villa and fabulous food. Perfect in every way x

Absolutely exceptional. Everything about this resort was sensational, from the friendly service that goes the extra mile, the wonderfully curated dining options every day, to the gardens that were so immaculately looked after, down to the wonderfully serene pool area. I'm privileged enough to have visited many world class resorts across every corner of the globe and this very much ranks amongst the best of them.

Tulia is truly a amazing hotel that goes long over expectation. Everything from the lovely garden, to the farm where the grow all vegetables to the food, the beautiful setting and design of the hotel, ocean views, coctails, nice spa, free sups and cayaks and sailing, to the most friendly staffs and great service from the first minute you arrive until you check out. It is a truly gem! I rarely give a 5, but Tulia is one of a kind!

We stayed at Tulia for 5 days following a safari. The resort was amazing but the best part was the staff. They did everything they possibly could to make our stay the best it could be. They were the friendliest, happiest people we have come across in our travels. The food was outstanding, with plenty of options. We had our flight get delayed and they allowed us to stay on property and use the facilities while we waited. They even arranged for us to shower in the spa before we left. One of the best resorts I have ever been to and hope to go back.

I stayed 4 days after a safari its a lovely small hotel was makes it special is the service and food, there is night intertatianment , quiet in the day if you want a quiet time this is a great choice if you want a lot of activities and moter sports this not for you

This is an incredibly beautiful property with an amazing staff. It's a slice of paradise.

Firstly, this is an amazing place. The staff are an absolute asset to this place. So so lovely we felt like family. Had my vow renewal here and very decent price for this- mostly complimentary. Thereza was amazing and very concerned about weather on the day as had unexpected amount during our stay. The food was fabulous. Sit down meals, not buffet which was lovely. Chef will make you anything you want although there is a set menu. Had all inclusive stay. Beach villa did not have a private pool. I wish we booked a cheaper villa with a private pool (note messais are security and walk around the villas often so not fully private). Not massively child friendly- no TV channels or much to do- but staff were lovely to my kids. Very clean villa and hardly any bugs inside. Restaurant entertainment were great every night. Dinner starts at 8 which is late for kids but they will serve for kids earlier. Complementary room service. Now for the price, the villas are not amazing. Bathroom is not luxury, no toothbrushes, poor hairdryer, no hand soap as I would have expected. Kids bed faced directly on our bed which wasn’t great. You are paying for the amazing staff and food. Great spa and you get complimentary massage per person staying (including kids). I was expecting a much better resort and facilities for the price but staying elsewhere in Zanzibar made me realise how important great food and service is which Tulia definitely has. I would stay again purely for this.

From the free return transfers, to the welcome on arrival, to the staff, the food, everything was amazing! All inclusive includes a la carte menu for all meals of the day (not buffet). The staff are the best thing about this place. They were very welcoming and friendly. The free 60 minute massage was amazing. There is entertainment at every dinner. We saw some really good performances with all guests and staff getting involved in singing and dancing. I dont have anything negative to say about my stay here. We definitley received luxury treatment, however I do still think its slightly overpriced per night. My sister celebrated her 10 year wedding anniversary here and Tereza and the team did everything they could to make the day special. The feedback would be given the price of the hotel, I'd have expected more to do at the resort. For e.g. there are treatment rooms for massages but no spa fscilities such as jacuzzi, sauna, indoor pools etc. I'd have also expected more luxurious decor. For e.g. the bathroom is very basic. We have checked into another hotel (residence zanzibar) and already i can say this does not compare to Tulia at all! When we left we were given a small gift which was very lovely from Tulia. Will definitley miss our stay here and all the people we met.

The place is magical ! The beach right off the resort is heavenly. But the best part was definitely the kindness of all the staff !

Everything at Tulia was lovely. The gardens surrounding the rooms were exquisitely manicured and the vegetable garden was impressive. the entire property was very picturesque and the staff could not have been nicer. They made us feel like family. i would highly recommend this resort

Heavenly tropical paradise. Wonderful in every way. Feels so private and secluded - I can't imagine finding a better resort anywhere else in the world. Stay as long as you can (4 days was not enough!!)

We had a great experience here. The staff was so helpful and friendly. Henry was a great host and answered all our questions and took us on an interesting tour of the hotel--vegetable garden, duck and chicken yard, eco-friendly aspects, operations with explanations of staff experience. The only draw back is that there is a large tidal shift everyday and there is not a traditional beach at this hotel. The hotel is actually set up on a rocky bluff. They have built a sandy area on the bluff and you can look out over the ocean. You take stairs down to the water and can walk to the next hotel over and sit on the beach when the tide is out. The villas are not set up for kids as there are no railings and there is quiet a drop off the bluff. The villa had a wonderful porch with lounge chairs, a couch and chairs. It was wonderful to watch the sunrise! We also enjoyed a great massage at the spa again the staff was super friendly and made for a great experience!

Tulia is where dreams are made. Beautiful villas, ours was only seven steps to the water and had everything to make our stay comfortable, excellent bed, quiet, great shower and bath area, nice seating, good wifi and a desk for my computer. The grounds are magnificent and they have their own farm so all the food was super fresh. The food could be a reason to come here on its own. Gourmet Traveller magazine would be thrilled to do an article. We have been to Michelin restaurants which don't measure up to the presentation and ingredients in every meal . There is a decent wine list and a very comprehensive bar. The shining light though is the amazing quality of their staff, charming, knowledgeable and just perfect. We will certainly come back, we were so sorry to leave.

We have stayed at many beach resorts in different countries around the world and none of them would top Tulia. It is just a fantastic small resort and everyone there seems to go out of their way to make you feel welcome and make your time there enjoyable. As we're from the United States we just wish it was closer but if we have the opportunity to visit that part of the world again we will definitely try and stay a few days at Tulia Zanzibar.

The food was excellent, compliments to the head Chef! I was celebrating my 40th birthday and this property with the beautiful white beach and clear ocean blue water was amazing! The hotel staff were friendly and thought of everything! And the best part of the trip was meeting, Hassan, an excursion tour manager on the beach 255-772-866-086! His services were excellent! He took incredible care of us from beginning to end. We did three tours, Safari Blue, Quads (ATV's) and Stone town/Prison Island. He and his partner were extremely professional, drove us everywhere and stuck by our sides to answer any questions we had. And for my birthday he arranged for a traditional band to play music, sing and dance, and they even brought me a cake. This was the best trip ever. If you you think about doing a tour, do it with Hassan and his team! They will take GREAT care of you!
