Petit déjeuners copieux avec choix important Établissement calme et serein avec uniquement le murmure des animaux , un bonheur ! Clientèle calme et bien éduquée. Oui , la plage un peu désuète mais c’est aussi ce qui fait le charme de cet hôtel .

    “Zanzi truly is a paradise - we only stayed two nights but fully immersed ourselves in the wonderful space that it offers. the resort only has 14 villas, all very private, you can go days without seeing any other guest... the privacy here is great. The resort is so so lush and green, it seems to be inside a rainforest. the villas are beautiful, very big, the private space outside amazing. we couldn't have asked for a better ending to our time in Zanzibar.”

    “Очень уютный и приватный отель.Остались довольны выбором на все 100%.Когда катались на машине по популярным пляжам Занзибара,вечером с еще большим удовольствием возвращались в свой маленький райский уголок Zanzi.Еще хотелось бы отметить сервис в целом,и уборку номера 2 раза в день.Вечером,пока вы на ужине,номер заботливо подготавливают ко сну.Отель располагается на западной стороне острова,потому тут нет таких сильных отливов как на востоке.Рекоммендуем👍🫶”
