Zanziblue  |  Hotel in Matemwe

A very nice hotel in a quiet location with stunning views. Very clean and tidy. The food was delicious. We had breakfast included and opted for the early bird a la carte dinner – delicious and affordable. The staff were fantastic, professional, and took great care of us – honestly, we felt very lucky to have found this hotel.

Our time at Zanziblue was idyllic. The beach out front was quiet and clean. We really loved how the whole property was calm and relaxing. The food at the restaurant was excellent! A great variety on the menu. Lots of fresh fish options but also great comfort food. The bar had fantastic, fun cocktails and great mocktails and smoothies. They also figured out how to make me a rooibos latte. At high tide the waves come right up to the property and then at low tide a guide can take you out to look at all the creatures in the ocean. I loved coming back to a tidy place with the beds made and fresh towels. We had massages and the massage therapist was fantastic. We also took a tour out to Mnembe arranged by the hotel. The spice farm they recommend was also amazing. Sometimes internet was spotty in certain rooms but generally worked great throughout the property. No real concerns there. We had to make a local phone call to the airline and they helped us make the call no problems. This was a once in a lifetime trip for us and Zaniblue made it a dream come true.

Excellent beachfront property. Great beach that is not crowded. Can safely enjoy the property and beach area. We had friends visit us for lunch one day, they were staying at other resorts and were impressed with our site. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend the site and would definitely return.

We loved our stay! The hotel was so on top of it. Since we just got engaged, they brought us breakfast in bed. I highly recommend. We also had a romantic dinner on the beach and massages. They were right on time and the shower was amazing! Best hotel in Zanzibar!

We had a wonderful stay at Zanziblue. The hotel is beautifully located right by the beach, in a calm and quiet area that’s perfect for relaxing. The staff are incredibly friendly and service-minded, always making sure you feel welcome and well taken care of. The breakfast buffet, served in the main building on the second floor, with a beautiful view of the ocean and garden. Here you’ll find fresh fruits, bread, and a selection of hot dishes among others. We stayed in a Deluxe room with ocean view, which had direct access to the nice pool area and the beach from our terrace. The bed was comfortable, and the room was cleaned upon request, which we appreciated for its flexibility and sustainability. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here. Zanziblue is a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beauty of Zanzibar in a peaceful and well-cared-for environment. Highly recommended!

I was completely satisfied staying at this property. The staff was wonderful. Any excursions outside the property were handled for us with a fair charge, including transportation. The restaurant staff was also friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. We had a walk out directly to the beach room and it was the best choice! A beach walk during low tide was arranged for us with a guide and was so fun and interesting. The beach right in front of the hotel is great with minimal interruptions from beach boy sellers. The ambiance was quiet, classy and elegant overall. A perfect place for a honeymoon! I didn’t want to leave!

Amazing place with super friendly staff and great food! Very quiet and nice to relax!

Very nice hospitality very beautiful ocean view secluded and quiet

Amazing staff, we came as tourists and left as friends …

We absolutely loved our stay at Zanziblue! Everyone who worked at the hotel and restaurant was so professional, gracious and kind. They were helpful when we needed laundry done and a driver to Stonetown and back. The meals were especially memorable. Beautiful presentation and so delicious. In all our travels, we had the best meals there. Sabina, the manager there, was so welcoming. It was clean and comfortable and the grounds were beautiful. It was a profusion of color. We enjoyed the pool area, finding both shade and sun lounge areas. Zanziblue was the perfect place to relax after a 10 day safari!
