Ocean Boutique Hotel
9.6 (51 reviews)

Ocean Boutique Hotel ★★★

📍 Zanzibar, Dongwe

"Hotel is located just on the beach, kept cleaned every day by Hotel personnel. Diving center really besides the hotel, managing snorkeling, scuba, surfing and other activities. The Blue Lagoon is some like 500 meters from hotel, easily allowing nice snorkeling after a 10 minutes boat trip. A little longer after the Blue Lagoon there's a zone where you can fine hundreds of Star Fishes, very beautiful! Restaurant is fine, we really enjoied our meals. Tide changes the landscape every 6 hours. When tide is high, you can bath, when it is low you can walk to be reef."

The Sands Beach Resort
9.0 (78 reviews)

The Sands Beach Resort ★★★★

📍 Pingwe Village Rd, Dongwe

"We have just finished our journey at The Sand and we already have nostalgia, an amazing location, few people, super "pampered" by a truly professional staff, a place for those looking for peace and relaxation, with unique cuisine, immersed in palm trees with a very white beach. The rooms are comfortable and are cleaned twice a day! Highly recommended place, we will definitely be back. Don't miss the breathless sunsets."

Hotel Club Dongwe
9.6 (40 reviews)

Hotel Club Dongwe ★★★

📍 RG9H+6W6, Dongwe

"The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this resort for couples and families, as it offers plenty of activities for children as well. Although the resort was fully booked during our stay, we never felt crowded because the property is so spacious. The standout features include the exceptional service, the beautiful beach, and the impressive 350-meter-long pier extending into the ocean. At the end of the pier, you'll find the renowned Blue restaurant, the perfect spot for a superlative romantic dinner featuring an exquisite shellfish menu."

The Palms Zanzibar
9.9 (49 reviews)

The Palms Zanzibar ★★★★★

📍 Bwejuu Beach Paje Michamvi Road, Dongwe

"Do not go here if you want to run around at speed, play loud music and meet loads of people. Do visit if you want perfect peace, wonderful food (hats off to William), friendly and intuitive service (thank you Ngasa, Maulid, Kibalabala and Jackson), warm professionism (Siriak runs the place beautifully), the widest skies, massive rooms and beds, a great pool, your own cabana on the private beach (not to mention a plunge pool outside your room), access to a spa and water activities from (larger) adjacent sister hotels - and almost total privacy (just seven villas in all) within manicured flower beds and lofty palms, all giving out onto ocean views."

Ocean Boutique Hotel ★★★
"This magical boutique hotel made me fall in love with Zanzibar all over again. The view from my room was spectacular, the staff is super friendly & helpful and the tranquil atmosphere is wonderful for optimal relaxation. The Ocean Boutique Hotel will be perfect for a romantic honeymoon destination or a relaxed breakaway spot for memorable holiday. The beach in front of the hotel has crystal clear blue water and the most beautiful white sand strips for long walks next to the ocean. I can 100% recommend this hotel will all of my heart! 10/10 :)"

The Palms Zanzibar ★★★★★
"For many years we travelled extensively over the world in pursuit of the perfect place for a senior couple like ourselves to spend the Christmas season in the sun. Since we found The Palms at Zanzibar some years ago we don't have to search any longer. Perfect service, the best food the Indian Ocean can offer and very nice wines from South Africa. We shall return. Jan Guillou, Stockholm, Sweden"
