一直相信貴總是好的,找了這家,總經理一個加拿大女生,傲慢,虛偽,無理的,後來才知道來自北部對華人是極其不友好的,被浴缸龍頭熱水燙傷,竟然被這個女的教育應該如何洗澡,被蚊子咬的滿身包,一路在非洲都沒被咬,要驅蚊劑她們還要收錢,這麼貴的酒店不做驅蚊的?!出去回來還不開門,讓你門口站很久,餐食也是很差的,一個加拿大人生活在非洲這樣的地方,可想而知她奇怪的態度了

My wife and I spent 7 nights at Hotel Zawadi celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary...what a beautiful location and accompanying service to do so! Having spent 7 nights we had the opportunity to test the various reviews and assess the true standard and consistency of service...Zawadi team (from the Resort General Managers, Front of House all the way through to Maintenance team) all didn't disappoint! Every minute of our stay exceeded our expectations, with nothing we asked for being too much of an effort! And the team were exceptionally attentive... Two examples being, it was noticed my wife and I didn't like red onion in our salads so the team ensured future salds came without red onion. On another occasion we wanted to take advantage of the low tide, which happened to be at the same time as breakfast, to go snorkeling. We asked for some food to be put aside for us...instead the team kept us a table and offered us the full breakfast service, and never once did we feel rushed to finish our food. The team even started to notice we quite liked a banana milkshake at around 16h00 so started to serve us a milkshake at the same time every day, when we were lying by the pool, without us having to ask. There are many other things the Zawadi team did to make our stay extra special... So, if you are looking for a special, relaxing, rejuvenating and memorable holiday then don't look any further than Hotel Zawadi...you won't be disappointed! From those we had the fortune of meeting (Pema, Evelyn, Bernard, Iddy, Ally, Alan, Hamad, Innocent, Raza, Mabula) to those we didn't get to meet but who made our stay extra special and memorable - Asante sana!

My wife and I have just returned from an unforgettable stay at this exceptional resort in Zanzibar, and we are already planning our next visit. From the moment we arrived, everything about Zawadi exceeded our expectations in every possible way. The quality of the food was absolutely incredible. Whether it was the breakfast buffet with fresh tropical fruits, pastries, or the four course dinners with recommended wines, the food was consistently outstanding. Zawadi's food challenges many of the best restaurants I've been to. The staff here were nothing less than extraordinary. Every single person we encountered went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. From the genuine happiness at check-in to the attentive service during our meals, it felt like they genuinely cared about making our stay perfect. The villas were pure luxury. We stayed in a private villa with an ocean view, and I can’t imagine a more idyllic setting. The design was elegant yet comfortable, with every detail thoughtfully planned – from the spacious interiors to the outdoor plunge pool overlooking the beach. It was the perfect balance of privacy and luxury. Zawadi is set in one of the most beautiful parts of Zanzibar, with a small white sandy beach and crystal-clear waters, with brilliant snorkeling straight off the beach. It’s the kind of place where you can simply relax as soon as you arrive. This was truly a perfect holiday, and I can’t recommend this resort highly enough. If you’re looking for a luxurious escape in one of the most beautiful places on Earth it'll be hard to beat Zawadi

Zawadi was the final stop on our holiday to celebrate retirement. We could not have picked a better place . The setting is incredibly beautiful and peaceful. The accommodation is sheer luxury. The staff are delightful and are genuinely pleased to have you as guests. Special thanks to Pembe and Bernard who always made time to chat. The food was delicious and so varied. We were truly spoilt and it was so hard to leave !

Zawadi was the perfect place for my husband and I to relax, unwind, and disconnect on our honeymoon after an incredible but action-packed safari. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at ease — it was the most relaxed we have felt in years. The staff was so attentive and accommodating and it was such a personal touch that everyone knew each guest by name. Every meal was a treat — beautifully prepared, multiple courses, and so fresh. The pool and beach were beyond stunning — so pristine they almost looked unreal. Our villa was luxurious and peaceful with excellent air conditioning, a private plunge pool, and total quiet — we slept better than we have in ages. Zawadi is pure paradise and we’re already dreaming of the day we can come back!
