What a gem! This hotel is right on a stunning, peaceful beach, perfect for total relaxation. The rooms are modern, spotless, and super comfortable. The food is delicious (the beach dinner was a highlight!), and the staff are incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive. There’s so much to enjoy without even leaving the hotel: beach games, fun evening entertainment, a beautiful pool with a pool bar, a gym, and a relaxing spa offering massages. We also loved exploring the beaches on both sides of the hotel, pure paradise, and totally worth the walk. Don’t miss the sunrise either, it’s magical and absolutely worth waking up early for. We had such an amazing time here and would come back in a heartbeat!

I stayed at few hotels in Zanzibar and here it is different - original bush has been saved , added flowers and endemic plants.African style architecture blended inside the garden , tastefully decorated rooms and some villas, each has different theme. I like the local arts around.Pool on the secluded beach , so wonderfully relaxing …Life slows down🌴☀️The cuisine is absolutely delicious. I enjoyed Zanzibar traditional music band

We originally booked White Paradise in Zanzibar for one night thinking of it as a good stop off between Paje and Nungwi. We loved it so much though that we ended up staying for another 3 nights and never even going to Nungwi! The whole place is paradise and the property is perfectly thought out in every way from the amazing pool, to their private jetty and sea pool. Without doubt the best place we stayed in Zanzibar.

Tulia was an absolute beauty- luxurious. The staff service was top, the details on the building, the place is soo serene. I can’t praise it enough… it was calming. Michaelle treats you like you are her only guest- with much care and attention. They do fine dining so there is two options to pick on for main course each day- which might be limiting for some. It was not the case for us. We loved Tulia and hope to be back again next time in Zanzibar!

It has been my second stay at Santa, but for sure not the last one. The place is amazing for relaxation and experiencing the lazy, beach holiday at a true paradise. Santa Maria makes you feel like home, and the staff - like the part of their family. In particular, special credit to Sarah, Jeni and Musa for how they made us feel very welcome at all times. Along with the rest of the staff, they're making Santa a place you will be eagerly coming back to. Also, the food is delicious! They have one of the best octopus I have ever had.

The property is amazing. There are birds nests all over, the pool has cool water and the view over the bay is breathtaking. The property manager, Ali, but also all the staff( Clarice, Eddiec the Chef ) were so warm and they attended to our every need. It was like a family away from home. The room were cleaned every day and ther sprayed with insecticides for the mosquitos every evening. The food at the restaurant was simple and very very well cooked, especially the fish and seafood! I loved our stay there and we will returned for sure!

Really nice breakfast with lots of fresh fruit, cereals, egg station etc. Friendly staff. Decent sized pool (about 18m long). Great location, right on the beach which was great for a long walk. "The Club" which is located at the end of the long boardwalk/pier has a very good restaurant, and you can also rent kayaks there and play pool. The room was large with a comfortable balcony.
