We visited Royal Zanzibar for 2 weeks and had an amazing time. They offer a huge selection of food each day from 2 restaurants and popcorn is distributed at the beach bar each day. Ice cream is also available at the beach at a cost of $2. The hotel does many themed nights each week and our highlight was the beach party that included a live band with fresh fish, prawns and lobster available amongst an array of other selections of meat and pastas etc. All inclusive allows for you to enjoy local liquors.

The hotel is in a very good location and the beaches are beautiful. The sea is turquoise. Royal Zanzibar is advertised as a 5 star hotel and you won't be disappointed. The staff here have been nothing short of wonderful for us. We've showed them some attention and they have returned it three fold. Lovely local people who are a credit to the country and are genuine.


We stayed on the top floor that offered sea and swimming pool views over the whole hotel. The TV offered many channels which spoke English and 3 or 4 films at a time along with CNN and British news. We didn't spend an awful amount of time watching the TV but its there if you want it. The actual room has a huge comfortable bed & is regularly serviced and leave fresh water, new toilet roll and offer a turn down service with flowers etc.

Throughout the day the guest team offered many activities which varies from day to day. We particularly enjoyed water aerobics but got involved with most things. Beach volleyball and water polo is quite hard work but if you want something less taxing then boules and aerobics is for you.
We would definitely come again & will be telling our friends

I have stayed at Royal Zanzibar once before and returned again for my honeymoon. It was really great to come back and see the amazing staff again. It’s so amazing to see how they keep the hotel clean and tidy. Every day there are sports activities such as beach volleyball, and aqua gym.

The rooms are huge and are cleaned at twice a day. The food is really good and every night a different show for entertainment. For sure we will come back to Royal Zanzibar - to this amazing hotel and staff, beautiful beach and great energy
