Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort
4.1/540 Reviews
Nungwi Beach
There are very few Chinese here, most Europeans. It is very big and beautiful. The rooms are also very large. There are balconies and bathtubs. The decoration style is very modern. There are more than a dozen houses without elevators. They are like a scenic spot, in fact they are. In this way, you should bring a bracelet after you come in. The facilities in the hotel and the swimming pool can be used. All meals are included, and unlimited drinks and beverages are included. It is a good place for leisure and vacation.

Very good resort. Facilities are top quality and well-maintained. Food was very yummy, although breakfast could offer more variety for a 5-star hotel (e.g. there was no smoked salmon for breakfast - I consider salmon to be standard at 5-star hotels catering to international clientele). Staff are well-trained and very professional. The resort also offers spa services as well as tour bookings, but we did not avail of these. For our travel dates the all-inclusive package on trip.com was by far the best value for money compared to booking directly or through any other website. One potential area for improvement is the provision of a mini rack on the balcony/veranda where guests can hang up wet clothes after a tour - would be a nice thing, which I've seen at some other resorts, as some guests just want their clothes to dry, not necessarily washed.

Nungwi Beach
We stayed here for 8 days. The property is aging and trying to maintain its charm. The staff are generally friendly and trying to elevate the guest experience. However, our stay was less than stellar missing the mark for what we have come to expect at a Hilton property. The beach vendors are extremely aggressive and not deterred by the security, several bartenders are working deals to reduce bar tabs in favor of their personal tips, and hot water in the shower was unreliable - varied morning to evening with no determined pattern or schedule. The menu at the property was also a disappointment. It was the same menu at the various places to order food, and the supply chain seemed to suffer while we were there and menu items became unavailable while the remaining food quality diminished daily over the course of our stay. We actually opted to leave the property and eat elsewhere toward the end of the week. Beyond these issues, the lack of ability for the property staff to provide change was a constant issue. Everything on the property is tip based and local ATM and banks only distribute larger bills in local currency. This limits our desire to tip, or leave us overtipping with the available bills we could acquire. The property seemed to have no ability or desire to assist us as guests, just hoping we would use larger bills. Overall, we are disappointed with Hilton and would not recommend to stay at this property.
Essque Zalu Zanzibar - Life's Perfect - Sometimes
4.5/560 Reviews
5 stars for the location, barely 4 for the rest. Beautiful looking hotel, good location, wonderful swimming pool, nice pier and the little islets for the rooms are quite nice. For the rooms it's another story, it may have been a 5 star 10 years ago but not today. Furniture stained and user, ditto for bedding, average cleanliness. Overall it deserves a major renovation to regain 5 stars. We had to ask to change rooms… Average but correct food, a big plus for the Jetty restaurant whose dishes are simply excellent. In short, in summary the value for money is very average, if you have this kind of budget, take another 5 *, otherwise pay less and take a nice 4 * at half price.
