Nothing at all.

It is a very quiet place to stay in. Excellent location, by the Jambiani beach. Staff pay attention to every little detail. The manager and his team take good care of you. You are not a room number, you are "guest"! The room is super clean. I wish I had stayed longer or at least finished my Zanzibari trip there. It was a top choice!

Check-out at 10.45 is no-sense. It should be at 12 as in all hotels. It’s a bit odd such time giving the room rate per night you pay. They propose late check-out for 70$ which is no good value for money if you leave in the early afternoon.

Walking barefoot between the beach, the room, the restaurant. The staff is super welcoming as well as food that is really delicious

Everything was fine.

The room with poolview was amazing. Very comfortable bed and very clean. The restaurant cooked very delicious food and prices are affordable. Nice seafood pasta. Breakfast is also very good.

There was nothing to complain about

The hotel and area was MUCH MUCH better in real, than pictures and comments on booking.com The staff at the hotel and restaurant was the best and very very sweet and helpful. When we went for a walk on the beach none of the hotels was better than Sharazad. We will for sure come back to meet the staff and our new Masai friends on the beach. See you

The standard of food was not as great as I would have expected and the veggie options were very limited. We informed the hotel before our stay that we had a requirement for veggie options but this was not taken into account.

The facilities were great. There's space at this boutique hotel.

Its a green-energy focused resort, and outstanding serenity and tranquility in the area of the hotel. Beautiful and empathic staff they have. Unfortunately i had to cut my holiday short and travel back to my home, they were understanding to an extent and they refunded a portion of my money back. Still grateful for that. Will definitely consider this hotel when i come back to you Zanzibar

the menu didn’t change much but there were other restaurants to eat from.

loved that it was on a beach, hotel/villa was beautiful and we were glad to have the only one with air con. loved that it had three pools each in different locations of the hotel. the silent one was a really good choice. bonus that the hotel was near other hotels with restaurants so when we wanted to try something different we were able to without having to go out the hotel area. staff were friendly and welcoming.

There was a relaxed and nice atmosphere. A nice outdoor area where you could find your own spot. Garden, beach and pool. Everything you need! Yoga every day hold by a yoga teacher. Nice food in the restaurant.

I can't say there was anything that was really bad in the hotel. In retrospect, it might have been interesting to know how the hotel is organized to be considered an eco-hotel. This includes the question of where the electrical energy comes from or where the wastewater is discharged.

We enjoyed the friendly and courteous hospitality. The view of the well-kept palm garden in front of the beach and beyond to the sea was paradise.

It is a great hideaway place on the east coast. We were welcomed by a drink, lovely smiles when we arrived. They also took time to show us around. The staff was friendly, the facilities are great (they provide you during your stay a beach bag, robe, manual fan) as well as a awesome local spa, several seating/lying area, and 3 pools. So you have plenty to do-s meanwhile low tide. Most of the programs are close to this part of the island so you are not stuck in the car for hours. There are some windsurfers, but not to bothering. You can find some digital nomads in the hotel ,which fit maximum 60 guests, they have a dedicated working area, which is great. It has an awesome yoga sala as well. They also clean the shore every week, and there are limited ‘beach boys around’, and even if there is no option for a buffet breakfast the amount and variety was great. The octopus was the best we have ever tried! Definitely will book it again if any time we come back to the island.

Nothing! Ah may the rooms could have had the UK plug points like the 'Zoom' area but this didn't make the experience any less pleasing, I will just remember to bring an adaptor next time.

EVERYTHING! This hotel was absolutely exceptional from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. The staff were incredible and really made an effort to get to know you. I was lucky enough to have an elevated room which meant I was greeted in the morning by several gorgeous monkeys which was an experience in itself. The food was divine and the spa....wow! Let's not forget the overall vibe of the hotel, it was just everything and more. Please, if you intend to visit Jambiani, make sure you spend your time at Sharazad, you won't regret it.

At breakfast Jenny and Myajuma were very friendly and Jenny has the most welcoming smile. Moses helped us a lot with our list luggage. Joyce was incredible in every way: beautiful smile, beautiful spirit, helped us contact all of our tour operators to make special arrangements, helped us book our romantic dinner, helped us book a spa appointment at a fabulous resort, opened up the gift shop after hours to help us get Safari supplies. At our special dinner, Zayna was very friendly, kind and made everything perfect. Everyone was wonderful - we felt right at home!
