Z-Lodge Zanzibar

Hotel in Kiwengwa

Located in Kiwengwa, a few steps from Kiwengwa Beach, Z-Lodge Zanzibar provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. Wow, the best holiday ever :-) We liked the breakfast and restaurant. Fresh food, happy staff, nice juices and funny dog Bambisha around. We miss you already :-) Nice experience with bush baby in the night. When we ate dinner, the staff showed us a bush baby on the coconut tree. We were very happy to see something unique in Zanzibar. We book Deluxe Room for 2 people with nice ocean view. Also close to the pool. The room was clean, we don't have any complain. The hotel has laundry service, also it helped us a lot :-) Thank you Z-Lodge, soon we will come back!

Mahali Zanzibar

Hotel in Paje Beach, Paje

Featuring a private beach area, a year-round outdoor pool and free Wi-Fi, Mahali Zanzibar is set in Paje, Zanzibar. The hotel features a sun terrace and views of the sea. Spacious and clean rooms with great sea view. Helpful and hospitable staff and owners. Good, well-maintained facilities and a lovely pool. Breakfast is 'a la carte', starting with a fruit platter and continuing with a great variety of options. There was no restriction - you could order everything you liked from the menu. Hotel was very helpful in arranging our transportation to/from Zanzibar ferry terminal (it is strongly recommended to book a taxi through the hotel, as it is much cheaper and safer than any 'driver' approaching you outside the ferry). The hotel also arranged for us a visit to the Blue Lagoon (again at a much lower price that what tourists could find on their own), where we had a chance to see the spectacular coral reef and its exotic marine species. One of the greatest assets of the hotel is its location right on the beautiful Paje beach, ideal for relaxation, jogging or water sports. (First-time visitors are advised not to pay too much attention to locals trying to sell you stuff, as they will not leave you alone until you buy something from them - usually overpriced at 'tourist rates'.) Around the hotel there is a local market, where you can buy spices, local handicraft and other goods. For handicraft, be prepared to negotiate hard, as the initial quoted prices are quite high.

Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar

Hotel in Mtende

Located in Mtende, 22 miles from Zanzibar Butterfly Centre, Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar has accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. I travelled with my kids and to be honest this place did not feel like a lodge or hotel, it felt like home away from home. Everyone from the owners Eric and Sophie to all the staff were so warm, friendly and welcoming. They made it so hard for us to leave. We really enjoyed our vacation and we will for sure go back there. Thank you to all of the Lodges staff and a big thank you to Eric and Sophie for make our trip a memorable one. We will always remember this holiday.
