SafiraBlu Luxury Resort & Villas

This is the best resort in all of Africa, spectacular and world-class in every way! Just 12 villas nestled in over 100 acres of land, every possible amenity is there, wonderful restaurants, chef Keith and manager Ahmed were personally attending to our every needs!

What an unbelievable honeymoon we had at Safira Blu. We were accommodated at late notice and met by Harry and the team, checked in promptly after giving only 1hr notice of arrival (a long story) and were given a choice of two outstanding villas The villas are beautifully appointed, each with great privacy and ours was extremely spacious with an amazing outdoor area with breathtaking views of the ocean and the beach with private steps leading to the beach which is just idyllic The beach is so private and most of the time it felt like we were the only people there- just perfect for a honeymoon The staff are all so accommodating, every wish is attended to so quickly and the service is immaculate The star of the show though is Keith the head chef, such an asset to this hotel, he not only is head chef he went out of his way to make sure we felt special. His cooking though is just something else- world class and on one night the team arranged a beach table for us and on another Keith set up a table in the kitchen and allowed us to meet his team- just next level personal service Harry managed every other need so well. The Masai guys make you feel safe although to be fair the estate is super secure and remote If you are visiting Zanzibar for a special occasion or just a great romantic holiday, you must visit this hotel- the most enjoyable travel experience I have ever had and the team completely made our honeymoon Well done guys, we will be back!

We have spent five nights at Safira Blue and the whole experience was nothing short of spectacular. This is definitely the best luxury hotel in Zanzibar that offers outstanding accommodation and services. The gardens are incredibly beautiful and very well maintained as is the whole place. We had a sumptuous family villa with a breathtaking sea view offering the perfect comfort and privacy. The staff exuded professionalism and warmth, being both attentive and discreet. The restaurant offered a diverse range of gastronomic experiences, from local delicacies to international haute cuisine. The service was impeccable. The overall experience exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank enough chef Keith, as well as managers Ahmed, Malay and their teams for making our stay an unforgettable one.

The place was stunning and clean, the service was beyond amazing. Thank you for showing us the traditional way to hunt in Zanzibar and the singers who preformed for us at dinner. However, i would recommend if you added a mini market that has snacks and pharmacy we both will benefit from it. Thank you soo much for this great experience.

My friend and I just ended our stay at Safirablu and our experience was a 10/10. As someone who travels very frequenty, I can be quite particular about my accomodations and Safirablu far exceeded my expectations. The villas were huge, very clean, and stocked with snacks and drinks. We loved our private pool and space overlooking the sea. The hotel grounds were equally beautiful. The pool was lovely and it was so nice to have a quiet and private beach. The service was amazing and all of the staff members (too many to name) were professional and kind. Chef Kevin’s food was excellent. We could tell how passionate he is about his job. I am grateful for the tour he gave me of the grounds and the garden and was so pleasantly surprised to learn that the hotel is very self sustainable. Harry was a huge help in organizing our transfers and offering recommendations and Mr. Juma was constantly ensuring that everything was smooth and that we were comfortable. We also received massages from Esther which were amazing. As two women traveling we felt incredibly safe and secure. Thank you Safirablu for an amazing stay and experience. This was exactly the R&R we were looking for! I will be back and plan to share my experience with friends and family!
