非常驚喜的一家店 小而精緻 我個人和朋友都非常喜歡 價格也很美麗 最主要是樓下就是海灘 沙非常細軟 老闆是意大利夫婦 很和善 唯一對很多遊客來説麻煩的是 必須包車去 在一個比較偏遠的海灘 沒什麼遊客

Very charming boutique hotel, with very nice rooms and common areas. Direct access to the beach, and very nice restaurant inside, with great and varied cuisine.

Not only is this hotel situated in an stunning spot looking out onto the white beach between matemwe and paje, this hotel also boasts of a beautifully designed interior and delicious food, a curio shop and amazing staff. While we were they kindly helped us celebrate our parent’s 22nd wedding anniversary and baked a wonderful cake for us . But one of the best things about this place is that as much as it seems like paradise it is not a completely cut off from the activities and life on the island, the staff are more than happy to organise trips and give advice about excursions to the local villages, and out to sea . It’s a beautiful hotel in harmony with the beauty and hustle and bustle of the island. It is honestly very hard to leave.

I had a lovely stay at Zanzibar House for 10 nights - if you’re looking for a place to relax away from the crowds, this is it! It’s a beautiful spot overlooking the beach. As there are only 7 rooms, it felt like a home from home - the family who own the place were lovely & friendly and the staff were excellent, they were on hand for anything you needed. The masseuse was superb - I highly recommend a massage. The family organised multiple day trips for me & kindly took the time to talk me through available options. The room was large with a massive balcony - it was clean and housekeeping visited twice a day. Dinner was a four course meal every night, with generous portions - the octopus carpaccio and fish ravioli were real highlights. Thank you Maxi & Miria, I had a wonderful stay!

Our stay at the Zanzibar House was amazing. The team, both front and back of the house, is a credit to themselves and to the hotel. Care, attention to detail, service, quality of drinks, and unforgettable meals were second to none. Our rooms were tidy, clean, comfortable, and serviced exceptionally well. The manager was an excellent aid for many things and possessed great organizational skills. He was the man to go to for trips and specific needs. With seven rooms and more than adequate space for a relaxed stay, I would not hesitate to say to anyone, "Go and enjoy!"

I am a solo female traveller. Zanzibar House is an excellent property in so many ways. The staff are friendly and helpful. The grounds are a delight to be in, with lots of comfortable places to sit and read or contemplate the beauty of the area.
I did not use the pool and I am sure it would be lovely.
At night time I had an evening meal which was tasty and they accommodated my dietary requirements very well. I am gluten intolerant. I recommend this hotel if you like quiet and beauty filled places

t's taken me a long time to write this review, but it's never too late. When I first arrived at the hotel, I found it quaint, pretty, and very unusual. Within a week, I had totally fallen in love with the place. Literally right on the beach, I could take walks in either direction, leading to various locations—from beachside massages to enjoying drinks in the local pubs. The hotel offered a wonderful view of the ocean, which was a delight. The evening food was spectacular, truly incredible, and hard to compare. I'm not referring to the daytime snacks, but to the exquisite meals cooked in the evening. The room was comfortable and airy, and the people were absolutely dynamic. If I could give it a 5-plus rating, I would. Don't miss this quirky, incredible, and artsy hotel on your journey!

We had an awesome stay in the hotel and we would come back for sure. Everything was great! The food was delicious (especially dinner), everyone was very friendly and helpful! We (family & friends) were there for a wedding and for our vacation – everything was just perfect! The manager/ hotel owner(s) organized the beach wedding perfectly. Thank you!
