The seafood in the restaurant was absolutely amazing — truly some of the best we’ve had. The staff was always smiling and ready to help, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The private city tour they arranged showed us some beautiful spots, and overall the hotel offered a very pleasant experience.

Excellent hotel, excellent facilities and outstanding service of all staff without any exception. Staff from reception, housekeeping, bar and restaurant, the security make you feel like at home. We had to call an ambulance in the night due to a sudden illness and remained in the hospital for 36 hours and the support of hotel staff was remarkable. Under the management of the responsible/manager they all act in a very diligent and kind manner, took care of us, specially of our children, who stayed alone at the hotel, while we were at the hospital,… their care and honest interest made us all feeling like at home and in family. We frankly recommend this hotel for the location, facilities, food and service, and overall by their staff approach. Congratulations!

The hotel was so Ply lovely and amazing. I was so happy that we chose this accommodation. The rooms are beautiful very nice decorated and well thought. The views are amazing and it was a very quite and peaceful place since there are only 13 rooms or something. The pool is huge and the beach setting wonderful. The service was extremely good. Everyone is super friendly and helpful and well trained. The food definitely great as well. The manager , a very friendly Italian person is always around and gives everyone a good feeling, very familiar atmosphere. We loved it and would recommended it warmly !

I stayed in BaraBara for a couple of nights and had a wonderful experience. The rooms are simple yet carefully designed, with a lot of small details that help make it a comfortable and cozy stay. I also liked how they included many upcycled items. The breakfast was amazing with a lot of options to choose from. For dinner, the restaurant serves pizzas which I highly recommend you try, it was one of the best meals I had on the island. The highlight of this place though is the staff, they are so welcoming, kind and give a lot of attention to their guests. The location is also very practical with many little shops around and the beach within a 10min walk.

My stay at Belvedere Resort was truly remarkable, offering a serene and peaceful retreat. Everything was perfectly balanced and available, including personal sun loungers that added a touch of privacy and comfort to my experience. The pool was a delight, becoming a favorite spot to relax and enjoy the sun. Breakfast was exceptional, featuring a wide variety of options to start the day on a high note, and the dinners were equally impressive, showcasing a fantastic selection of dishes that were both delicious and beautifully presented. I appreciated the tranquil atmosphere throughout the resort, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The arrangement of the dining tables was superb, ensuring a pleasant mealtime experience. My room was not only stylish but also immaculately clean, reflecting the high standards of the resort. The attention to detail and the effort put into maintaining such a welcoming and pristine environment did not go unnoticed. I highly recommend Belvedere Resort to anyone seeking a peaceful getaway, where every aspect of your stay is thoughtfully curated to ensure a memorable experience. The excellence of both breakfast and dinner adds to the allure, making it a perfect destination for those who appreciate fine dining in a relaxed setting.

A Slice of Paradise – Perfection from Start to Finish Our stay at Xanadu Luxury Villas & Retreat Zanzibar was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, everything was flawless — the warm welcome, the seamless service, and the breathtaking surroundings made it feel like we had stepped into paradise. Our personal butler Abel was absolutely perfect — attentive, discreet, and always one step ahead of our needs. The chef’s cuisine was truly exceptional, with every dish crafted to perfection. Each meal was a culinary experience that exceeded all expectations. The attention to detail throughout the entire resort is remarkable — from the villa design to the thoughtful touches that made us feel so special every single day. Every moment was pure luxury, comfort, and beauty. If you’re looking for a place that offers privacy, impeccable service, and an unforgettable atmosphere, Xanadu Luxury Villas & Retreat Zanzibar is it. We can’t wait to return.

Paje Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Zanzibar.

Paje Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Zanzibar. Long, wide, and naturally wild, with white sand, turquoise water, and endless space to breathe. The tides create constantly changing scenery, and the beach never feels crowded. Perfect for long walks, swimming at the right tide, and watching kitesurfers. Relaxed, authentic, and unspoiled — a place you want to return to.

Jambiani Beach is one of the most beautiful and authentic beaches in Zanzibar. Long stretches of soft white sand, calm turquoise waters, and a peaceful rhythm shaped by the tides create a place that feels untouched and timeless. Life here moves slowly — fishermen at dawn, women collecting seaweed, gentle evenings painted by the sunset. It is quiet, spacious, and deeply relaxing, yet full of character and soul. Perfect for long walks, swimming at high tide, and simply being present. Jambiani is not about crowds or noise — it is about beauty, simplicity, and harmony with nature. A beach that stays with you long after you leave.

The beach is beautiful and the water very warm.

The beach is beautiful and the water very warm. Because of the strong tides there's only water in the morning and the afternoon but it makes the beach very interesting and beautiful and gives the oportunity to walk far out and find seashells and starfish. The only downside to the beach is the many very insisting sellers who make it impossible to go for a walk without being approached.

A peaceful and welcoming town with a strong sense of community and a safe, relaxing atmosphere. We stayed in a peaceful part of town, where there were noticeably fewer street vendors selling beads and souvenirs compared to other areas. This made the atmosphere even more calm and relaxing, allowing us to fully enjoy the local charm without feeling overwhelmed.

Just up the beach from Paje town, a little quieter but thats what was nice. Wandered to different restaurants along the beach for lunch and dinner. Limited during off season but enough open. We came via Dar Es Salaam airport and ferry. If you can't get an e-visa before arrival, plan 2hrs to exit the airport. We missed our booked ferry and had to pay again for the last ferry on a different company. Used Zanzibar Quest to book the ferry and transport with exemplary service and support via whatsapp and email. The new travel insurance requirement $50p/p on top of the $50p/p visa fee is a scam that mars the experience. The amount of times we had to show our passport and visa / travel insurance was reminiscent of the cold war. Inefficient and overboard. So if you can fly direct to Zanzibar and use e-visa or have patience and a loose schedule. The drive to the Page beach area took about 1 ½ hrs with the first ⅓ taking ¾ of the time with a typical african road experience. Get a good driver. Driving licenses are issued by testing payment of fee. The driver booked by Zanzibar Quest was excellent. Great beach, wind was consistent during the afternoon to either kite or cool down. Bring sunscreen and mosquito repellent. Not a fan of the immigration process or the fees.

I've been in Makunduchi before and if you don't want to be in the tourist hotspot it is great! The beach is fantastic (but be aware of the low and high tides). I would recommend arranging for a driver to get around as there are many great places to visit and you shouldn't stay put in just one place.
