amazing people, amazing interior, best stay during our trip in Zanzibar. next time must have is to take an option with included breakfast, we were sad that we did not choose this option. room nr. 1 was amazing, our best recommendations to our friends and everyone. super location, you can walk for few hours, than come back and go for a walk again, because everything is very close and you do not need to leave the hotel for all day.

A wonderful Resort where you might feel like Tarzan and Jane in the midst of jungle. If it wasn't for the most friendly and helpful staff. And if it wasn't for the kitchen, every bite a delight, be it breakfast or dinner. The birthday-surprise will make a lifetime memory!

Thank you so much, Royal Apartments, for your incredible hospitality and for taking such great care of us! I want to especially thank the owner, Mr. Thabit, for his kindness and warm personality in welcoming us and ensuring all our needs were met. The luxurious rooms were amazing, and the sauna was a highlight for my family—it truly made our stay unforgettable. A big thank you to Chef Ochu for the delicious meals and the entire team at the restaurant. The wooden finishing in the restaurant added such a warm and unique atmosphere, making every meal even more special. The experience with the horses was another memorable part of our trip—riding on the beach was just awesome. Besides the place being spotless, the horses were well-maintained, and the trainers were charming and polite as well. Thank you, Royal Apartments team, for such a memorable stay! We hope to visit you again on our future holidays.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Andrea . The house is cosy and felt like a home away from home. Violeth, our host, was incredibly kind and patient. Even when we arrived later than expected, she stayed in touch and made sure everything went smoothly. Communication was clear and friendly throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend anyone looking for a peaceful and well-hosted stay!

The convenience of having golf facilities just steps away from my accommodation, combined with the service and amenities of the hotel, made for a truly good stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to any golfer looking for a golfing experience paired with the comforts of a luxury retreat in Zanzibar. After all the hotel has the only Golf Course in Zanzibar.

Amazing, friendly and nice hosts that were available for any requests or help at any time. We felt very respected and welcome at Zava House. On our arrival to Zanzibar a transfer from the airport to the accommodation was handled which went smooth. We liked entering and leaving the property and having small interactions and chats with the hosts as they were super friendly and nice to talk to. I would recommend Zava House to anyone looking for a nice affordable place to stay in Stone Town, close to the beaches, shops and market.

Those staff were the most friendly I’ve ever met. Been to different countries and different accommodations but the ones from Golden palm take the crown. While planning the trip I kept thinking this would be the most difficult trip because of my infant. Those guys came through for me and it was the most smooth stay I’ve ever had.
