Ending our honeymoon at Zuri Zanzibar was like stepping into paradise. The resort is breathtaking, with its prime beachfront location and beautifully designed spaces. We were thrilled by the level of service, attention to detail, and overall atmosphere at Zuri! The beach at Zuri is the best on the island—pristine and private, with perfect sunset views. We enjoyed sunset drinks and a beach barbecue featuring incredible seafood, which became one of the highlights of our trip! We also booked the romantic beachside dinner which was everything we wanted and more. From all the people we spoke to, Zuri is definitely the nicest resort on the island. The staff, including Richard, Regan, Francis, and many more, were attentive and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed. The food and drinks were outstanding, and the resort itself offered everything we could want without needing to leave. Zuri Zanzibar was the perfect end to our honeymoon—a luxurious, peaceful retreat where we felt pampered and relaxed.

The best thing about Zuri is definitely the pool, which is great - overlooking the beach, almost empty most of the time, very spacious (and not some weird shape - ideal for swimming laps), and the perfect temperature - not too hot to swim, not too cold to lounge. The beach is reasonably nice as you enter it, but majorly, majorly spoiled by the truly hideous view to the right of it (which you won't see in any of the advertised photos of course), which overlooks a massive concrete construction site. Yuck. The beach is a lot nicer in the other direction, but quickly becomes very touristy if you go for a walk that way, and you'll also get approached by people trying to sell you stuff. Overall a bit of a let down. My room (55, in the "Ginger" section) was just OK - no bathtub, which is pretty disappointing for the price. I think the room areas closer to the pool / beach are a bit more convenient so if you're going, ask which ones they are and request one of them ("Lemongrass" was one of them). The resort has a very family feel to it, so if you're a solo traveller like me looking for a quiet island paradise this isn't really the place.

We spent 4 nights at Zuri for a girlfriend’s 40th birthday. The resort property is beautiful. However, there are a few items of concern. 1) our AC in the room did not work. When we brought it to the attention of the manager we were told it was because we turned it off. They brought us a fan and said it was fixed. Offered to move our room, but why would we since it was “fixed.” Night 2, the AC was not fixed. It was so hot in the room, I had to take a shower in the middle of the night to sleep. Day 3 the engineer came, fixed the AC. 2) The resort was out of all white wine except Chardonnay. Super disappointing. 3) The food is a buffet every other night. I feel for the price the food should be better. Finally, the restaurant managers, waiters (Juma) and waitresses (Safina) and bar tenders were amazing! My recommendation is if you do stay at Zuri and have an issue resolve the bill before you leave. We asked for a reduction in our room because we didn’t have proper AC for 2 days and 2 nights and were told no because they offered us a fan and to move rooms(although they told us it was fixed).

Top notch experience! Managed very well. They don’t miss anything making stay unforgettable. Perfect add-on after African Safari. Located on beach at northern end of Zanzibar about hour drive from airport. Provide beach security so local beach vendors unable to enter private areas.

Our entire stay at Zuri was absolutely amazing. The resort itself is a paradise—I travel a lot, but I have never experienced such a breathtaking environment. The staff was incredible—friendly, always smiling, and endlessly helpful. They truly took wonderful care of us. The services were exactly what you would expect from a 5-star luxury resort! The food in all three restaurants was simply perfect. I read some previous negative reviews, but based on our experience, they do not reflect reality at all. A huge thank you once again—we will definitely be coming back!
