Ocean Boutique Hotel

I had an unforgettable stay at the Ocean Boutique Hotel in Zanzibar during September 2024. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this hotel goes above and beyond to ensure its guests have an exceptional experience. The facilities are brand new, the rooms are beautifully designed, and the standard of cleanliness is outstanding. Every corner of the hotel felt fresh and well-maintained. However, what truly sets the Ocean Boutique Hotel apart is the incredible staff. They are not only warm and welcoming, but they also go out of their way to make sure your stay is more than just enjoyable—it's memorable. Whether it was helping me plan activities, recommending places to explore, or simply offering thoughtful gestures, the team made every effort to ensure I got the most out of each day of my trip. The location is perfect for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. Set in a quiet and beautiful part of Zanzibar, it’s an ideal getaway from the hustle and bustle of busy city life. The serenity of the surroundings combined with the excellent service made for a truly relaxing experience. I absolutely loved my week at the Ocean Boutique Hotel and wouldn’t hesitate to return. If you're looking for a place to unwind and recharge, I highly recommend this gem in Zanzibar.

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 :)

We stayed at Ocean and was like in paradise. A perfect oasis of calm. The peaceful atmosphere is truly unmatched, from the quiet beach and pool area to the serene dining area, overlooking the beach and the ocean with local fishermen's boat view. The staff made us feel right at home, and whether we needed a fresh towel or a drink they were always there with genuine friendliness. If you are looking for a place to relax and recharge, away from the hustle abd bustle, thisi is it. A week felt like the bare minimum to fully appreciate the change of pace this fabulus place offers.

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.

Wow, what a blast at Ocean Boutique Hotel! Just wrapped up my second Zanzibar trip in a few months, and this place knocked my socks off! First off, big shout-out to Ally and Kevin - you guys rock! Your smiles and top-notch service made the stay even better. Last time I was next door at The Sands, their sister hotel. Loved it there too, but honestly? Ocean takes the cake! These folks have outdone themselves this time. Both spots are absolute gems, proving the management really knows their stuff. But Ocean? It's on another level entirely! If you're heading to Zanzibar and want a slice of paradise, look no further. Trust me, I'm already plotting my return!

Ocean Boutique Hotel was the perfect spot for our couples' getaway. The beachfront pool and terrace views are stunning! We loved the peace and quiet, both in the hotel and surrounding area. The food was irresistible - I definitely overindulged. Watching the tides change daily was mesmerizing, revealing new colors and allowing for long walks to the reef. Paje is just a short drive away if you want nightlife, but we rarely felt the need to leave. The tranquility at Ocean was too good to give up. If you're looking for a peaceful escape with a touch of luxury, this is it. We're already planning our return!

I've just returned from a 4-night stay at Ocean Boutique Hotel, experiencing it during its first days of opening this July. What a find. The hotel is a haven of tranquility. My room offered a spectacular view of the sea, a mesmerizing canvas of blue and green hues, striped with the white foam of breaking waves. It's the kind of view that invites contemplation and instantly melts away stress. The design of the hotel strikes a perfect balance between elegance and simplicity. Everything feels thoughtfully curated, creating an atmosphere of peace and refined comfort. Service is excellent. The staff, invariably smiling and courteous, anticipate needs without being intrusive. Their warmth adds significantly to the overall experience. The tidal phenomenon is quite pronounced here. Rather than being a drawback, it offers ever-changing scenery. At low tide, the exposed seabed reveals fascinating marine life. High tide brings the soothing sound of waves closer. It's a natural rhythm that showcases the island's diverse beauty. For those seeking a place to truly unwind, Ocean Boutique Hotel delivers. It's a pocket of serenity where time seems to slow down, allowing you to reset and recharge. This hotel is a welcome addition to Zanzibar's offerings, ideal for travelers who appreciate understated luxury and natural beauty.
