Drifters Zanzibar

The staff, including the owner and bartenders, are exceptionally helpful, friendly, and welcoming. The location near the beach provides easy access to tourist and clubbing activities.

Spent a week here and could have stayed longer. Amazing view, pool right on the beach. The food is great and the bar is super fun, super social so a great place to meet other travellers. Location is great, can walk everywhere and right on the most beautiful beach. Ca t wait to come back.

Horrible is not enough to describe it. I don’t usually review places if I don’t like them but this place doesn’t deserve the rating it has and if you have a minute read this before booking this hotel. We arrived late in the night by prior communication because of car issues. Once arrived it was very difficult to find the entrance of the hotel and we spent twenty minutes around the area looking for the place. They asked us to wait for the check in in a dark not illuminated area with our bags next to huge trash bins standing for ten minutes with a horrible smell. We had booked a room with the sea-view and terrace and instead they gave us another room with no sea-view (which has a lower price) As you can see in the pictures the room was unbelievably dirty and with no privacy conditions. The entrance door has a huge gap as well as the windows and anybody (the room is at ground floor) can see through outside to inside also because the curtains don’t cover properly all the space. The bedsheets were dirty and the shower is in disgusting conditions. At that late time of the night we could not find another place so we stayed the night. In the early morning we got awaken by loud speaking voices of the workers of the property just next to our window. Not only they gave us the wrong and cheaper room they also made us pay the full price of the room we booked but didn’t stay in!!!
