No words can express how wonderful Zawadi Hotel is! Booking this hotel was kind of an afterthough of our month long travels and it ended up being the most amazing part of our journey. From the moment we contacted Zawadi, their communication was seamless and impeccable. We were very apt to go scuba diving the morning we arrived in Zanzibar and they arranged with Rising Sun Dive Center everything! We didn't have to worry about a thing except to go diving! In order to make the dive, Zawadi had our taxi drop us off at the dive center and then Zawadi and the dive center took care of all of our luggage and personal belongings. When we were done with our 2 tank dive, Rising Sun dropped us off directly on the beach in front of Zawadi Hotel, and we were warmly greeted by Isaack with 2 fresh cocounts in hand and cold towels! This was the most special arrival ever! And all of our luggage were already neatly placed in our villa! The villas were incredibly spacious, clean, and effortlessly decorated so that the views of the Indian Ocean could take center stage. The food was incredibly fresh, flavorful and delicious! The chef catered to my gluten free sensitivity and I never had to worry about my meals having gluten in them. But by far, the people who helped us every day are the ones that made our stay truly memorable. Evelyne, Isaack, Iddy, Bernard, Raza, Iddy, Ally, Innocent, Hamad, the chef and everyone else we forgot to name, are stars! Everyone we met were incredibly kind and made us feel like family. We can't wait to come back! Much love to everyone at Zawadi!
