I will always keep this place in my heart. 3 nights here released 2 years of stress on my shoulders. Serenity, astonishing views, jungles, animals, sunrises, sunsets, amazing food. The bungalow is spacious, spotlessly clean, brand new, where luxury meets rustic and bonds you with nature. Watching monkeys playing on baobab branches from the terrace of our bungalow was just mind-blowing. Mtende beach is like from sci-fi movies, just unbelievable, one of the most memorable and remarkable places I’ve visited on this planet. All this is possible thanks to the hospitality of Jeff and Suzi, who went above and beyond to provide the best experience of our stay in Zanzibar. We stayed on 6 beaches in Zanzibar, 9 accommodations, and this was the best place.

The restaurant offers a variety of delicious dishes. The mango avocado salad and the tuna tartar were my favorites. The hotel is located just a couple of minutes away from the sea and a semi private beach. If you wish to organise day activities, the owner has the best contacts for you to enjoy that. These included sandbank tours with snorkeling and sea food lunch.

One of the best stays we've ever had. If you're looking for a peaceful place to relax and recharge, this is the perfect spot. We even arrived earlier, and the owner had no problem allowing us to check in at 11:00. They warmly welcomed us with a welcome drink. The breakfast is also fantastic and diverse and the staff is very friendly! We highly recommend it!

A great place to relax! Clove Island is a small boutique resort located in a quiet and picturesque area, right on the ocean. The hotel has everything you need for a perfect holiday. We really enjoyed the rooms, and their unique and very fancy decor, such as furniture made from traditional boats from Zanzibar, is really impressive. We would like to thank the managers very much for their very warm and friendly welcome and their help in organizing a trip to Jozani Forest, the managers are really knowledgeable about Zanzibar, always ready to help or advise. We hope to return here someday!

Palmera Zanzibar Eco Boutique Hotel

Dimbani (Near Mtende)

Set in Dimbani, 800 metres from Kizimkazi Dimbani Beach, Palmera Zanzibar Eco Boutique Hotel offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a private beach...

What makes Palmera so special is its inspiring mission. The hotel and restaurant operate as a hospitality school for local young women, and the exceptional service they provide is a direct reflection of their training. From their warm smiles to their impeccable attention to detail, you can feel the genuine pride they take in their work. The hotel's setting is pure paradise. The infinity pool overlooking the turquoise sea is mesmerizing, and the lush, immaculately kept gardens create a perfect oasis for relaxation. It was wonderful to be able to walk barefoot through the fine sand and simply enjoy the tranquility. For anyone, but especially for vegans, the restaurant is a must-visit. The creative and delicious vegan dishes, all beautifully prepared and presented by the talented students, were a true highlight. It's a testament to the high-quality training they are receiving. The breakfast, in particular, was the best I had during my three-week stay in Tanzania, the homemade warm bread and homemade chocolate spread were unforgettable. For lunch and dinner, with main courses priced between $11 and $13, it offers exceptional value. This 15-room hotel is a quiet retreat. I stayed when it was almost empty and had no issues with noise, but even when full, the large garden and pool area should provide plenty of space for guests. The price range for double rooms in the 2025 high season was 70-100 USD. All rooms face the sea, though the view can be a bit limited from some of the downstairs rooms. While the large windows are beautiful, the curtains don’t fully cover them, which could be a privacy concern for some. I prefer a firm mattress, and the bed was perfect for me, but it might be a bit too hard for others. The solar-powered hot water worked flawlessly. The road to the hotel is a little bumpy on the last kilometer, but there are plans to improve it. In the bathrooms, I would have appreciated a bit more space to dry towels, or a drying rack on the terrace.
