We really liked the hotel itself – beautiful surroundings, a nice pool, excellent cuisine, lovely authentic bungalows, and wonderful staff, especially Esther, who was always cheerful with a big smile, the delicate Melania, and, complementing these lovely ladies, the wonderful Julius. The hotel also arranges excursions, and we went on the Blue Safari. We were lucky to get private tour just for my husband and me, and it was cheaper than group tours offered elsewhere. We highly recommend it. We wish the owner Anick (conductor of a magnificent orchestra) continued prosperity for this wonderful place. Thank you for everything. Karina and Simba

The coco reef ecolodge was a great adventure for us! We highly recommend! :) The hosts are extremely hospitable and staff is very kind - all with great sense of humor what is a big plus! :D They are very helpful with all requests, providing reliable information on the area and attractions. They organize amazing trips with local guides for very good prices. The lodge is offering more authentic experience of Zanzibar than big resorts. We were close to the local people of Kizemkazi and got into unforgettable interactions and trips (including spontaneously arranged successful trip to hunt big yellowfin tuna in the open ocean and invitation for the dinner made of it in the village). The food was great, and I was personally impressed with French crepe on breakfast - one of the best I ever ate! Grilled seafood was very fresh, big portions! Summarizing, this was a great, unforgettable experience with loads of fun and action - whenever opportunity arise we will be back!

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.

From the very first moment we entered the hotel, we felt completely at ease and genuinely welcomed. Every single wish and need was taken care of with warmth and attention to detail. Special thanks go to Chef Ally, a truly world-class chef who created outstanding dishes every single day. His food was simply incredible, and we already miss his exceptional cuisine! Beyond that, he always came to us personally with great recommendations and heartfelt conversations. The entire service team deserves praise – especially Ali, Akim, Miriam, Roman and Joyce who were always there for us with a smile, impeccable service, and wonderful, friendly energy. They made every moment feel special. Also, a huge thank you to the reception team, particularly Fatima, Mary, Asye and Mohammad, who helped us with absolutely everything – from taking photos to organizing activities and even assisting us when we forgot mosquito repellent. The General Manager, Arjun Kumar also deserves special recognition for running this place with such passion and professionalism. It’s clear that his leadership sets the tone for the entire team – everything runs smoothly, and you can truly feel that everyone enjoys what they do. The hotel itself is beautifully designed with so much taste and attention to detail. It truly leaves nothing to be desired. We felt incredibly comfortable throughout our entire stay and can only highly recommend this place to anyone looking for warmth, hospitality, and excellence in every detail.
