I stayed here for 4 nights in February. It is about an hour drive from stone town. It is nicely located for those who want to go snorkeling or scuba diving. The staff is very friendly. The room is very large and cool.

We spent our honeymoon at Azanzi - what a magical and special holiday it was! The accomadation was superb and the rooms were immaculate. Azanzi cannot be described as your "standard beach hotel" as it is small in comparison to other hotels and therefore not overcrowded and noisy (a real piece of paradise!) The pool is beautifully shaded and perfect... More

The location is remote and beautiful, the beaches are long, power white with crystal clear water. Sunrises are sublime. The sea urchins however do prevent you from actually swimming in the ocean and although stomping around in the reef shoes once is an adventure it’s no way to really swim. The pool is nice, but unless it’s scorching hot it... More

Just back from Zanzibar this weekend, we stayed at Azanzi. From the moment we arrived the staff were so helpful and welcoming, our room was beautiful and spacious. The unusual cocktails were delicious. The dinner and breakfast were yummy! Our snorkelling trip was fantastic, we saw so much but swimming with the dolphins was breathtaking. Next time we would take... More

We went to Azanzi for our honeymoon and found it was perfect place to relax and have fun together. The hotel is small, so it doesn't feel like one of those canned massive hotels further down the beach. In fact it often felt like we were alone on the beach. The food was incredible, prawns, crayfish, sail fish, tuna. The... More

'Wow' is a great descriptor. To qualify - this is our 5th visit to good hotels on the East Coast of Zanzibar, and by far our best. The reviews explain all the positive physical and service aspects (especially the one about the food not being typical ''conveyor belt'' resort fair.... it was really good), but our clear winner was being...

Where to begin? Words fail, you need to visit to experience the truly amazing hospitality this resort has to offer. From the management ( Greg & Cara) right down to service personel. The friendliness & willingness to go the extra mile to accomodate requests far exceeded our expectations. The rapport that Greg & Cara have with their staff is that... More
