Our stay at Haber Apartments was fantastic! One of the standout features was the large, beautiful pool, which was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The rooms were incredibly spacious—much bigger than other hotels we’ve stayed at in Zanzibar, giving us plenty of room to unwind. The food was equally amazing, not just in taste but in presentation. Every meal was beautifully decorated and tasted just as great, adding a touch of luxury to the dining experience. The staff was another highlight—they were incredibly friendly and truly went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed, and the service continued to impress us throughout our stay. We highly recommend Haber Apartments for anyone looking for comfort, space, and exceptional hospitality in Zanzibar in a beautiful scenery!

The peace and tranquility. It is a small hotel but very personable. The staff are very helpful and friendly, it's very clean and the rooms are so comfortable. The food is great and the pools are lovely. The beach is lovely to swim in when it is high tide only and you can walk along the lengthy beach. There is use of bikes and kayaks also.

The staff were outstanding! Thank you Maurizio and crew! Words fail me. The location.....😮 paradise ♥️ and the food....punching well above it's weight for such a wee hotel. Myself and my wife were made to feel like the only people in the world. The only negative is how far from Scotland this slice of heaven is. ♥️ Already discussing our return 🤣😁

It is a very cozy and wonderful place, full of nice spots to relax! my bungalow was super spacious, very clean and wonderfully decorated. I had yoga classes every day in an ideal place and really enjoyed it so much! The food was very good as well, try the zucchini pasta and the poke bowl! Everyone in salama was very kind, making you feel like home. Maria and Paco are the best hosts ever. I really hope you to come back one day

We had a wonderful stay at Ocean views villas in north Matemwe. The villas are spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything you need. The private garden and pool are perfect for relaxing. The staff are friendly, helpful, and attentive to every detail. The breakfast is delicious and varied, and the location is ideal for exploring the beautiful Matemwe beach and the nearby attractions. We highly recommend Ocean views villas for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in Zanzibar.

The owner is very nice, helpful and will give you all recommendations you need. She even allow me to use her phone to call the airline company and change a flight. The location is ideal, next to a very nice beach, diving centre and some bars and restaurants. The bungalow is big enough, very clean (it gets cleaned every day). The fans which help with the heat. Breakfast consists of fresh fruit, eggs, a small salad, and toasted bread. It’s simple but what you need. Thanks again
