The resort was nice - quite pretty actually. The staff was very nice. The food was lacking (always a buffet, always late to be set up, and always with just one meat option and a lot of rice - we were constantly hungry). The staff spent a lot of time moving the dining tables around and re-setting the tables yet there was never enough cutlery and the meals were always late. Unfortunately, it seemed like this resort was not very used to being a resort - I forgive them for this, I suspect Covid hit Zanzibar hard-. I am giving the resort a 1 star (would give NO STARS if I could) because we ended up paying them twice: original stay was December 26-29 which we needed to extend to Dec 25-29th. Due to confusing directions from ******* and absolutely no answer from the resort whatsoever, we re-booked December 25-29th. Tanzanite Beach resort has completely refused to cancel Dec 26-29th booking and despite numerous calls where they have promised to refund me and many requests sent both prior to and post stay, they have not refunded me. In person, the front desk staff kept referring me to some unknown owner figure that would get back to me. I doubt they will ever refund me. I would not stay at this resort or recommend this resort to anyone. As a previous commenter said I would be extremely careful to provide them services or any sort of deposit. They will not say no to your face but if you were unlucky enough to have overpaid them or provided them a service without being paid immediately, they will pretend it never happened and keep your money. It is unfortunate that I had to leave this review.

Location is great next to the beach, if you are looking for relaxing place then it's the perfect place, the food is great and staff from the reception to the restaurant are very friendly and helpful, especially Esta and paulina at the restaurant.

I was pleasantly surprised by the lodge. I always book a place I can stay while on a business trip which looks comfortable, not only did it meet my expectation but was so happy with the kindness of the staff on arrival. They were very accommodating with my dietary needs and made sure I was looked after at all times. I feel rested even after a work trip. Will definitely be back

First time visiting Tanzanite Beach Resort but I will be back to this hidden gem with whole family soon! There is a small ***** of beach (sand) infront of the resort as well as amazing sand bank nearby. Rooms have just been renovated and have lovely views of the ocean!! Kitchen had variety of meals and different menu every evening. Although not a Vegetarian I actually enjoyed the veggie meal offerings (I tried almost everything on the menu!) Swahili Night (themed dinner) was the BEST!! The pool and loungers where my favourite area. All the staff where SUPER friendly and helpful! Asante :-)

The hotel is in a breezy location with quite nice rooms, simply furnished but our room needed some TLC. The cleaning was good, and the staff were friendly but the food was really rubbish. The food let this place down. Very African, many things not available, and the buffet was disappointing. At breakfast you could see what was fresh, usually one item each day whether mandado or croissant or a bread roll. Coffee was instant. The chef on the BBQ was burning and frying out the meat and seafood which upset me greatly. No wine choices, often only one or two types of beer. No ice one day. I started to going elsewhere to eat at the hotels nearby. There is no beach access at high tide, and be warned this is not a place for access for anyone with a disability as hard coral and urchins underfoot.

Be aware, business people: Tanzanite does not pay its debts. In October last year, I was invited to meet the owners of the Tanzanite Hotel for a business meeting. The idea was to see how the hotel could be improved, to train the staff and to bring some structure to the operation (which is lacking, that's why the service and the restaurant are getting bad reviews). My airfare was to be reimbursed. Now, a year later, it still hasn't been paid. They say they don't have the money and I should be patient. It's a disgrace, not just for the Tanzanite Hotel and the family, but for Sansibar and Tanzania.
