"The staff tried to scam us for breakfast. The receptionist that checked us in was nice and friendly. The men that cleaned did a good job, but be aware of other staff, as they will mock you and speak badly of you right in front of your face, very disrespectful. Impossible to find space at the pool, it’s also very loud and chaotic at all times. The food was mostly old would not recommend to stay here. "

"A wonderful eco resort! Cute bungalow's with compost toilets. We slept with all the windows and doors open to enjoy the ocean breeze. staff and food fantastic. Good snorkelling. Coconut crab night walk was fascinating. We climbed up the lighthouse and walked around the island on low tide - saw heaps of starfish and crabs!

Top Masingini Forest Hotel Reviews

Tembo House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Comfortable, classic property right on the beach. Staff was friendly and accommodating, the food was good. The only negative was the hotel is not licensed, but that is understandable given the location in the Muslim part of Stonetown."

Hotel Verde Zanzibar - Azam Luxury Resort and Spa - Dry Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Spice Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed for 1 night came very late 2am but the staff and hotel was very accommodating, contacted the hotel ahead of time and they was able to send info to chk into there portal so that I can chk in before I landed, when I arrived the process wasn't even 5 mins and I was already in my room, and dont forget the free breakfast which was great. I definitely recommend and will stay here again. Thk you spice palace for all your hospitality."

Mizingani Seafront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay at the Mizingani Seafront hotel. Extremely helpful and friendly staff, comfortable/clean rooms and tasty extensive breakfast. Would definitely book again"

NEW AMAAN HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing customer service!!! Everyone there is so helpful, professional, and nice. The place is well maintained! I will definitely come back!"

Mangrove Lodge

8/10 Good

"I stayed one night at Mangrove Lodge and overall had a very nice experience. The property is a beautiful, secluded compound with a really peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The lodge itself is very nice and well-maintained. The staff were exceptionally nice and helpful. There are two things future guests should know: First, the road to the lodge is in terrible condition - because of it, it takes a full 15-20 minutes just to get to the compound from the main road. Be prepared for a very bumpy, slow drive. Second, my only complaint about the lodge itself was that there was a noticeable smell of cigarette smoke in the room. I believe they allow smoking in the rooms. Despite those two points, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend it if you're looking for a quiet, secluded getaway with great service."

Chuini Zanzibar Beach Lodge by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent

"The resort was very clean and well maintained, there was a peacefulness which you would not get in the more busier resorts. The staff were helpful and very friendly. Only thing I would say is that the dinner service was quite slow, however food was quite good."
