The staff are so kind and super friendly. The food was one of the best highlight of our trip here in Zanzibar. The view was super fantastic. Leah and other receptionist were super helpful to us in many ways. They helped me with payment methods even outside of the resort. It was the best experience that i wish to live for again. Highly recommend staying here during trip to Zanzibar.

Everything! I can’t fault it. Starting from the gate, very warm welcome. Made me and my wife feel and get in tune with the happy mood. Very exceptional service from staff, spectacular amenities and access and good value for money. I felt very happy and can recommend this to anyone with my eyes closed. Made a lot of vacation memories with my wife here.

A beautiful and unique example of private conservation. The reef and fish life underwater eye superb, as good as anywhere we have seen in the world. Loved the accommodation, composting toilets, water conservation measures, commitment to Florie conservation. An amazing holistic approach. The staff were all committed to the beliefs and values of Chumbe.

The vibes of the resort are amazing. There are many places to relax and just chill and forget about the world. My favorite place was the far end of the deck. The rooms are comfy, and the view is a life changer. There was a pop up outdoor cinema, that was pretty cool, and we found out about it by chance while we were roaming around. The food was great, three delicious meals per day, felt like home 😅 the staff are very nice, the manager Ms. Marilyn I think, I'm not sure I got it right, she's a magnificent person. Mr. Nestori is also a really great person. And the Arabic chef is extremely amazing. All the staff were very cool. Overall, if I ever went back to Zanzibar, I'm definitely going to stay there.

    The convenience of having golf facilities just steps away from my accommodation, combined with the service and amenities of the hotel, made for a truly good stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to any golfer looking for a golfing experience paired with the comforts of a luxury retreat in Zanzibar. After all the hotel has the only Golf Course in Zanzibar.

    The view from this hotel is excellent. The bed was comfortable. One could walk down to the beach easily. If you are on a very tight budget, this is an ideal place to stay, do not expect the usual luxuries associated with beach resorts. If you like a rustic feel of an old inn, with weathered walkways, steps and exteriors of the buildings, then you will be at home.

    We spent 2 nights in this place. our goal was to play golf in there. what can I say - it’s a big resort hotel, there are a lot of activities you can do. they have tennis, golf, billiard and mini-golf there are several swimming pools a lot of plans, ocean view is really nice about the room - it’s a big old-fashioned and maybe need to fresh a bit, but clean and comfortable to problem with water pressure (what is normal in Africa) we had all-inclusive, they have enough variety of food you can choose
