Zanzibar: Avontuurlijke vakanties

View over Indian Ocean was magnificent, but no beach was disappointing.

We had a lovely stay at the Baraza Resort. Although the beach, villa and food were top notch, it is the staff that deserve six stars! The entire staff are so wonderful and cater to your every need. This was the perfect stop after 8 days of Safari before our long journey home. I can’t recommend the hotel more highly. We also enjoyed the spa which was fabulous.

Our stay at Diamonds Mapenzi Beach had several positive aspects. The location is good, the pool area is nice, and the staff are friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout the stay. That said, there are a few points worth being aware of. The rooms appear more worn in reality than the pictures suggest, which detracts from the overall impression. In addition, the food unfortunately falls below expectations. Considering the price, the culinary experience could have been significantly better. This becomes particularly noticeable when compared to similar hotels in destinations such as the Seychelles or Cape Verde, where the food standard is often higher within the same price range. It is also worth mentioning that the Hotels.com Gold benefits (Early/Late checkout, Upgrade) do not seem to apply here (even when listed on confirmatio). However, this appears to be more an issue with Hotels.com rather than the hotel itself. Overall, a perfectly acceptable place to stay, but somewhat overpriced for the experience it offers.

De kamers zijn dringend aan renovatie toe,waterinsijpeling in de muren, douche heeft zeer grondige dieptereiniging nodig, met name de voegen die vol bruine schimmel en barsten zitten. Het hotel is meer 4 sterren dan 5 sterren in vergelijking met andere 5 sterren resorts/hotels.Akke zwembaden moeten zeer drinfend gereinigd worden, tegels kapot en de voegen zijn zwart. Personeel en management zijn ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam 10/10, restaurant 9/10 , er is voor elk wat wils en indien je onwel bent kan je uw ontbijt. lunch of dinner op uw kamer krijgen

Prachtige accommodatie. Vriendelijke staf en vriendelijk personeel. Soms wat chaotisch maar dat is Afrika..
