An absolutely wonderful stay – beyond our expectations!

Liked:Due to cancelled flights we had to unexpectedly extend our stay in Zanzibar, and choosing Spice Island Hotel turned out to be the best decision we could have made. Before arriving here we had stayed in two other hotels on the island, but this one was truly exceptional. Everything about the place exceeded our expectations. The rooms are beautiful, spacious and luxurious, and the cleanliness is at a true European standard. The atmosphere is peaceful, elegant and very welcoming. What impressed us the most, however, was the incredible hospitality. Everyone – from the staff to the owners – was extremely kind, attentive and genuinely caring. We were travelling as a family with our 4-year-old daughter and felt completely comfortable. The pool is wonderful, the food is delicious and diverse, and the whole place has such a warm and relaxing feeling. We arrived quite stressed because of the cancelled flights and the uncertainty about our trip, but staying here made us feel calm and truly at home. A very special thank you to Tatyana and her wonderful family for their kindness, care and hospitality. They made our unexpected extra days in Zanzibar truly special. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Zanzibar and we would absolutely love to come back again.

Liked:The resort is very beautiful and well maintained. The gardens, the pool, the restaurant are very clean and tidy. The spa treatment my wife had was very good and they went above and beyond for our honeymoon with the decoration, free prosecco, room selection and the heart cookies they baked. The jetty bar was lovely and wifi reached pretty much everywhere. If you want somewhere quiet it's perfect. The breakfast was nice and the chefs were skilled.

Disliked:The restaurant menu was too small, we barely ended up eating there as there were only three options, one which was vegetarian and it was almost always pasta. The food was also a little too expensive, although all of Zanzibar is. The resort was very quiet, which for us was a negative thing. We expected some live music, or some BBQ or social scene of which there was none. The resort was also incredibly windy all the time, it is next to Paje which is a famous kite surfing spot so this is constant. If we had known we probably wouldn't have chosen it. That being said it did keep us cool when sunbathing in the day. The curtain rails weren't attached so every time we used the curtains they fell off the wall which was frustrating and somehow every time we went in our room there was 10+ mosquitos, although they would spray for the at the end of the day and they didn't bite much. Small things really but worth mentioning.
