I spent 4 wonderful days in Zanzibar in August of 07. the beach was SO beautiful-and I LIVE 1 mile from the beach here in the states.So relaxing. The sunsets are amazing. Diving is easy and lots to see. make sure you go to the Northeast corner where the lighthouse is - great photos. The fruits and veggies grown here. WOW! Stone town is not to be missed. Food was otherwise OK. People were very nice too!

The best holiday ever!
Happy to find this peaceful, friendly place in Bwejuu at the eastcoast.
I will come back to get more of the relaxed atmosphere, the fantastic beach and the delicious food!
The warm welcome with flowers in thet cosy and tidy bungalow...fantastic!

I moved to Canada to seek a better life but I am moving back. No words can express the beauty of Zanzibar. There are a million cities in the word more dangerous than the beautiful island. The nicest, most humblest people in the world.
Try to go there and you will never want to return back to your home.

My husband and I recently travelled to Tanzania from Australia on our honeymoon and were absolutely delighted to find two of the most amazing properties. We overnighted at the Kilimanjaro Hotel Kempinski which we are told only opned last year (lovely hotel and superb food particularly the Asian restaurant), then we travelled onto Zanzibar by ferry ...

Dhow Palace Hotel in Tanzania is one of the most lovely I've been to. It's in yhe middle of Stone Town and fairly close to e.g. the local market and most sights.
When going to Zanzibar, be prepared to be amazed. The old slave island has wonderful beaches and taking the "Spice tour" is an experience in itself.

Might experience ...

hi , ihave just come back from pongwe beach hotel zanzibar and it was the the best beach experience of my life , in a private cove with palm trees giving shade in the hot day, the service and food were a delight and it gets a 10/10 highly recommend jim

It was 1996... spent three weeks in Zanzibar. Most of the time was actually underwater getting SCUBA certified! Emerson House is lovely - they have a beautiful 'restaurant' on the rooftop, overlooking the town.

I always said that if I ever had a honeymoon, I'd go back there. What a lovely place. Very poor, as you would guess, but very lovely.

There is so much spice grown there--wonderful spice farms. Also the home of the red hair monkey that flies through the trees. His hair is really fright red and he is fun to watch.

I have been to more than 20 countries but this one where I want to go again and again its wonderful and peaceful place you just forget all your problems and in another word you will take a nice break from every thing ….. great hotels, food, people and the best is their beaches

I have been there 2 times and I am looking forward for the 3rd visit
