Hotels With parking in Zanzibar North Region, Tanzania

"The value for money is average; the price is a bit high, which is understandable since it's a tourist spot and a bit far from the beach. This is likely due to it being newly renovated. The hotel sign isn't even up yet. However, the owner's service is really excellent."

"The location and recreational facilities here are excellent. The staff are also generally friendly. However, there's a cultural difference that's worth noting: the local 'pole pole' (slowly, slowly) and 'hakuna matata' (no worries) mindset can clash a bit with the 'ppalli ppalli' (hurry up) tendency of Koreans. Haha. But if you experience it, you'll realize there's no ill intent, so as a traveler, it's best to just relax and go with the flow. I mention this because I had a bewildering experience where I booked through Trip.com, but upon arrival, the resort told me there was no reservation. In the end, I spoke with a Trip.com agent, and the issue was resolved well. I'm not sure of the exact cause, but it seemed like a booking system problem. I don't think it was solely Trip.com's fault; I suspect there might have been a system issue on the resort's side as well. The resort staff working that day did their best (honestly, there wasn't much they could do; it was evening, and they even showed me on the monitor that there was no reservation). Luckily, there was a room available, so I was able to book the same room on the spot. As soon as the payment went through, it seemed to appear immediately in the resort's booking system, and they gave me the confirmation. Haha. I was so tired, humid, and mosquito-bitten after flying in from Serengeti and arriving in the evening... it was tough. Haha. I'm so glad it was resolved; I don't even want to think about what would have happened if there were no rooms left. Make sure to send a reservation confirmation email to the resort and get it confirmed. On the way, I saw a Google review from another Korean who experienced the exact same thing and left an angry review. They booked through Agoda, and I booked through Trip.com, so I believed I wouldn't have this issue. That's because I've never had such a problem in the several years I've been booking through Trip.com. Yes. So, definitely send a reservation confirmation email directly to the resort and get it confirmed! The facilities are clean, convenient, and really great. For this price, I think it's excellent. And having a dive center attached is very convenient. The boat for the dolphin tour was really nice. Lolololol. Our boat was the best. Of course, it was more expensive. And I loved having unlimited drinks at the bar every day. I want to go again. It looked like they were building another resort next door, haha. I hope this review is helpful to everyone."

"Good hotel, the grounds are small but well-maintained. Breakfasts are standard, everything you need is there, nothing fancy, but it's a shame there's no variety. The hotel and restaurant staff are friendly and go out of their way for guests. The beach isn't perfectly clean, I wouldn't say that (trash cans, ashtrays, dishes are rarely cleared). The rooms are decent, with minor imperfections, but they didn't bother us. Overall, I recommend it, a solid 4+ star hotel."

"The entire island experiences intermittent power outages. I encountered this about three times a day in both the restaurant and my room, each lasting less than ten seconds before power was restored. Some of the staff, especially a female chef at one of the restaurants (the head chef rotates nightly), showed clear disdain for Asian guests. Upon check-in, a male front desk staff member saw that I only had a small backpack (a tiny summit pack, as my main luggage was left in Kilimanjaro and not brought to Zanzibar). I was already carrying it myself, but he forcibly took it from me, even after I told him it wasn't necessary, clearly trying to earn a tip. Once in the room, he kept making small talk and wouldn't leave, seemingly afraid I wouldn't tip him. I ended up giving him one. When I was checking out, my flight was delayed, so I asked if I could extend my check-out by an hour. The staff confirmed that an extension wasn't possible, but I could still use the hotel's beverage, snack, and other facilities. Since I had an all-inclusive package, I double-checked with a male staff member on the phone and a female staff member at the front desk about getting a drink, given my flight was delayed by three hours (my check-out was at 12 PM, and I hoped to leave around 1 PM). They both said it was fine. So, at 12:30 PM, I had a glass of orange juice by the pool. At 1 PM, as I was leaving the hotel, I was stopped and asked to pay. The staff member who had previously confirmed this with me, along with another server (not the beverage server), debated with me in front of their supervisor. Eventually, the supervisor, James, intervened and told me I could leave. One of the bartenders at the beach bar also displayed discrimination towards Asians, practically fawning over white guests. I sat there for ages, and he ignored me even after I politely asked for the menu twice, pretending not to hear. As soon as a white person sat down, he was instantly there, chatting them up. Overall, I'm dissatisfied with the service. Some staff members' English was poor, leading to communication misunderstandings (and I've studied English for many years and graduated with an English degree). The excessive debating in front of a customer also doesn't reflect good service. There were instances of discrimination and being forced into tipping. The entire service experience was very poor. The beach, however, is excellent, and the hotel's location is good."

"We had a lovely time at Zanzibella, the hotel was not too busy, but lively. The staff were extremely attentive as were the management. We would not hesitate returning. The meals although a bit on the small side were always very tasty. I would highly recommend this hotel."

"It's all cute."

"Отличное расположение, красивая территория, но маленькие номера"

"Расположение просто удачно, если вы любите уединение, массаи (анапские зазывалы-торгаши) вас не так сильно будут беспокоить, их тут мало. Общественный пляж совсем рядом, где их куча. Еда тут очень вкусная и недорогая, порции не маленькие. Сюда ходят обедать и ужинать посетители соседних отелей. Сервис за такие деньги желает быть лучше. Вода в отлив уходит на 600 метров. Персонал очень доброжелательный. Здесь нет привычных европейцам гигиенических наборов и тапочек😆"

"First of all, bad, 1. Booked an executive room, but this hotel does not have an executive lounge at all. I don’t know what the difference between the executive room and the cheap ordinary room is. The executive room is reflected in it. It is recommended that Trip.com . If you don’t have a lounge hotel, don’t sell the executive room type, or write down what courtesy is there? 2. There are frequent power outages and power outages, but it will come soon, and it is estimated that it has something to do with the local power system. 3. Living on the second floor, just arrived in the house, there is no water in the bathroom, and there is no water in the toilet. It took a long time to call to come. Let's talk about the advantages. 1. Have your own private beach, the quality is not bad The restaurant is delicious 3. The whole hotel view and exterior design are not bad, very beautiful 4. The service staff are not bad and very nice"

"Tui Blue Bahari is 5*+ There is space, good food, great private beaches, 5 restaurants, friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere. There were more sunbeds than guests when we stayed and towels are available poolside. There are bars in the garden, by the beach and at the pool, which are all manned with waiters and bar staff who are happy and efficient. The hotel has security and a private beach and the local tour sellers wait at the beach for you to engage. If you walk straight into the sea from the resort you'll find starfish, urchins and Dory fish. The room door we had wouldn't lock with a firm push and a couple times after the cleaners had been it was unlocked. Overall though 9.5/10 I'd recommend for any special occasion, or for those who want to safari in Tanzania, or swim with dolphins in Mnemba."
