1. Elewana Kilindi Zanzibar - Adults Only

2.2 km from Tazari Caves

"Property is nice, but the area is not the best in Zanzibar. Beach is right where a working fishing village is located. Not very private at all! Property is nice, grounds are ok. Overall upkeep of the property is below expectations. We switched villas and the second one was better, but not in pristine condition. Villa layout is awkward.

"Glad I took a gamble and stayed at this rustic boutique hotel. Its was totally worth it and sat quite well with my budget. As a 1st timer in Zanzibar I chose to stay @ Nungwi but was flooded with options of specific hotel to stay at without breaking the bank or having regrets about choice. It was my 1st time over expericing and out dorsy reception ...they sure made that style work for them.Thd front office staff were so welcomig with a wet hand towel and a cold glass of hibiscus drink.

Top Tazari Caves Hotel Reviews

Kendwa Rocks Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel sits on the best part of the beach in Kendwa and Nungwi. Very comfortable beach beds. The staff are very friendly, however the service from the beach bar in the day can be very slow and confusing. Our rooms in the pool villas were fantastic, very clean and spacious. Would recommend"

Zuri Zanzibar

10/10 Excellent

"This was the best beachfront property we have ever experienced in our many years of travel, Tranquil, well maintained, superbly attentive staff, bungalows lost within the forest with the feeling that there are no others around, best outdoor pool ever, incredible beach, I could go on ........... One of the few properties I have been to where the pictures on the internet do not do it justice."

Hotel Riu Palace Swahili

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely fantastic! The hotel and our room was spotless and as soon as we walked in we were welcomed and made to feel special. Our room was incredible, so spacious and comfortable. Every single staff member at the hotel could not have done more to make our holiday unforgettable, everyone went above and beyond, were polite and friendly. Food was delicious and there was so much variety, the restaurants were fantastic with the best steak ever!! The pools made it feel like we were in complete paradise, overlooking the beach, plenty of sun loungers, brilliant entertainment and fantastic staff always there to get us a cocktail!"

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place & beautiful people. Very welcoming, food was gorgeous and different every night. They upgraded my room as returning customer and I fell in love all over again 😍.. no moans over here, just smiles ✨️"

My Blue Hotel

8/10 Good

"Property grounds were nice. Rooms are a bit dated. The TV and telephone in our room did not work. Manager at reception was very accommodating and made our stay much better. The massages were excellent. Highly recommend them.! Wifi is awful! Love the balconies! The other downside is the beach, the beach is beautiful but you have to pay 25$ for 2 chairs and umbrella every day if you want to be on the beach. Otherwise they do have beach chairs on man made beach near infinity pool. Just depends on your preference! Food is ok. Nothing to rave about but something for everyone!"
