TOA Hotel & Spa Zanzibar 5 stars

Hotel in Pongwe

Located in Pongwe, a few steps from Pongwe Beach, TOA Hotel & Spa Zanzibar provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden. We loved absolutely everything! The staff were so-so kind and helpful, food tasted amazing and there was always so many different types of it. Air conditioning was better than any else hotel we have visited in Africa or Asia and rooms were clean, big and nice. We also loved the pool area where you can get literally everything you want- deeper and lower water, sunshine and not if you've had enough of it already. And best coctails in pool bar!! We had already booked another hotel too before our trip to Zanzibar (a bit more expensive one actually) and we regretted this decision every day and wished we had spent our whole trip in Zanzibar in TOA's hotel.

Aurora Boutique Hotel Jambiani

Hotel in Jambiani Beach, Jambiani

Located in Jambiani, 400 metres from Jambiani Beach, Aurora Boutique Hotel Jambiani provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. This is a amazing place. The hosts, Marisa and Simone, are such friendly people. Our car arrived in front of the hotel at 9pm, the dog ran out to meet us at the gate as if we are its owners. A warm and attentive reception from the owners. Before check-in, you will be served drinks. The grounds of the hotel are very beautiful. The layout of the bedroom, bathroom and toilet is very neat, tidy and meticulous. There is a small restaurant on site serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. I really like the playlist in this restaurant. Breakfast was varied and delicious. Staffs are professional and helpful. The beach is only a 5-minute walk from the hotel. Perfect !

Casa Paradis

Hotel in Jambiani Beach, Jambiani

Casa Paradis has a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and bar in Jambiani. Casa Paradis is what I would call a rare find, a true gem of a place. It is by far one of the best places I have stayed in, for all the possible reasons: the design which takes you straight to 1001 Nights, the lovely owners who will immediately make you feel like home, the heavenly food, the pool and beach area, quiet location and so much more. The whole atmosphere is unique and gives you an otherworldly feeling, watching the lovely views at low tide and local people going about their daily grinds on the beach. Cleanliness is top notch, I loved the barefoot policy which just comes to show how well the place is maintained. Attention is paid to the smallest of details, from decorations and fresh daily flowers in rooms and bathrooms, to the restaurant where chef Denisa prepares breathtaking dishes, with the menu changing on a daily basis. Dinners at Casa Paradis are a must, as are cocktails enjoyed on the rooftop terrace at sunset. We cannot wait to be back! Thank you, Denisa and Valentin, for a making our stay special and for offering us an incredible home away from home.

There is a supermarket nearby, but no restaurants, cafes, or parties. It is an ideal place for those who want to relax, swim, and dive without disturbing the city.
