Facing the beachfront, Royal Mandarin Hotel & Resort offers 5-star accommodation in Pwani Mchangani and features a fitness centre, garden and private beach area. Featuring room service, this property also has a restaurant and a terrace. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a kids' club and free WiFi throughout the property. The moment you enter this beautiful hotel, you enter a world you have never experienced before. A world that becomes in a wink of an eye your new home. And people who you'll quickly consider your Zanzibari family. This new family always goes for the extra mile to offer you the best stay you ever had. At this hotel the word 'no' doesn't exist. Their smile and service comes from the heart. The hotel is very clean, the rooms are clean, spacious and very well equipped with everything you need. The food and drinks are great. All your new family members will ask you everyday if everything is okay. And if any issues, they'll be resolved immediately. This proactive attitude of the team, and the honest and meaningful service that you'll experience, is nurtured by Mr. Ahmed who is not only taking care of all the guests, but also of all the staff. Seeing them celebrating and having their staff party was a great example of practice what you preach. There are so many people we want to thank, because everyone has been so nice to us, and thanks to them we had a wonderful time, and therefore a very hard time leaving our Zanzibari home. Besides mr. Ahmed, we want to thank Amina, Mariam, Judith, Ghati, McDonald, Munira and many more of the beautiful new family memebers. And last but not least, one of the greatest souls and most beautiful person we met, our dearest Maria. The auntie of all the kids in the hotel. My daughters loves her so much. She really knows how to connect deeply with kids and they adore her. Thank you for giving them and me the best time. We'll definitely come back in shaa allah.

Located in Jambiani, 300 metres from Jambiani Beach, Zanzi Soul Luxury Boutique Hotel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a private beach area. This 4-star hotel offers a kids' club, room service and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy African and American dishes at the restaurant or have a cocktail at the bar. Loved the energy of the place, it is a tuktuk ride away from Paje which is the part of the island I prefer. The staff was super attentive and helpful. The room itself had the perfect video of the water. I totally recommend this spot, and when I asked for a late check out they agreed right away. There is a restaurant inside the hotel that has fresh food and a great breakfast!
