"Pros: Warm water pools (3 of them), sugar white powdery sandy (absolutely no sea-weed) beach with warm sea water better than the Maldives, Maasai shops next to the hotel and in the village within walking distance, large roofed restaurant with seating on white sandy floor, plenty of beach loungers, friendly restaurant staff
Cons: Dated rooms, water leaking from shower to rest of the washroom which they could not repair after multiple attempts"

"An absolutely amazing stay! The rooms were really nice and comfortable. The place is right on the beach (literally, you step onto sand once you enter through the gate). And I can not say enough about how thoughtful, considerate, and kind ALL of the staff are - (for example, they stood by our chairs when we left our towels etc to go into the ocean without us asking or anything!). Definitely will be recommending to all my friends."

We stayed only one night on a quick pit stop to Zanzibar on our honeymoon inbetween safari and Seychelles. If we had to do it over again we would have spent all of our time in Zanzibar here with a quick day trip to stone town. Siriak is a very attentive but not intrusive host. One of the best things about this property is that there are only 6 villas so it is very peaceful and each villa has its own private cabana by the ocean which is a fantastic way to spend the day inbetween meals.

When you book a hotel you always read reviews with a pinch of salt. This hotel has fantastic reviews and with good reason. Everything from the welcome to our departure was absolutely first class without exception. A few members of staff deserve a special mention - Bernard, Mtoto, Nema and Baracka all helped make our stay extra special. The staff in general are exceptional including the kitchen staff who turn out superb food time after time and catered to my wife’s vegetarian requirements...

My wife and I found a little bit of paradise at Royal Mandarin Resort! Very very nice property. We booked this room for five nights following our Serengeti Safari in the hope of some beach relaxation. We got that and so much more!

Amazing service, and nice staff. It felt like a community and I was able to meet people from all around the world and we all started hanging out and doing activities together. I will definitely visit again.

Room is clean and tidy
So is the pool
Breakfast is delicious and good portion
The view and direct ocean view was magical
Very quiet and cozy
Staff they’re all friendly and professional especially Mr Jameel he was amazing and Koraiba
Only thing I would be aware of is that this location is secluded and not very lively mainly for couples or groups that want to relax and rejuvenate without many activities around
Not a great fit for solo travelers as unfortunately not much to do around and...

First experience on an all-inclusive hotel. very nice service, the staff is super friendly and helpful. The location is amazing, lovely beach and coral reefs to explore. no snorkeling or dolphins, that is on the other side of the island. The buffet and drinks service is ok, nothing special, although I'd have liked to have some local/african foods or drinks to experience.
General facilities within the hotel and the beach side are very nice, the wi-fi is limited to some location only...

The service was great! The entire staff were very friendly to me. From small conversations to any questions that I had all were answered with smiles and laughter. From guess services and the front counter staff to the bar, waiting, and recreation staff, I can honestly say that they made my time there more enjoyable. My room was amazing, I like how I was given a tour of my room when I first arrived when you walk into the rooms. It is easy to tell that the resort takes pride and care in...

This is an excellent escape from a stressful world. If you want to chill and read a book at the pool or take a walk along the beach, this is the place for you. If you’re looking for nightlife and excitement, you might want to try elsewhere. I would go back in a minute.

This property was absolutely magical. If you’re looking for a low key off the grid vibe, this is the place. There’s no Wi-Fi in the room but it’s available in the common area overlooking the beach. However, the level of privacy you’ll receive in your individual room is worth it.

Hotel is mainly occupied by Italians and Germans. It is located on the beach which is nice but the sea water is full of sea weed and it is not really nice for swimming. There is a small pool which is ok. Bungalow rooms are nice, stylish... It is not advisable to go out of the hotel at night since it is located an a very poor village (as all of them are) and there is no road infrastructure, there is no night light outside hotel...

Beautifully laid out, beach right out every front door, very clean, staff was helpful and friendly, great food and a quiet but still family atmosphere. You can tell the owners give a lot of attention to the details. Pool was so clean and beautiful. Also the landscaping was stunning and gave it an upscale resort feel while still having an intimate feel. They set up an excursion and airport ride and made the whole process easy. Would HIGHLY recommend this place and would stay here again!
