The rooms are really spacious, beautifully decorated and we had an amazing view at the oceand We saw many dolphins and the snorkeling was just... more

I have never before understood why anyone would take the time to join up to a website and review a holiday destination...until i visited Unguja Resort ... I guess I had never been anywhere before so worthy of a good review! My husband and I visited Unguja lodge as the first stop of our two and a half week honeymoon... more

I was looking for a holiday a bit different and special to celebrate my 60th Birthday in January 2009 with my wife and grown-up daughter and son. A UK travel agent (“PureZanzibar”) recommended Unguja Lodge, as they had one family villa with just the right accommodation for us (three en-suite bedrooms and air-conditioning). I booked this in early July 2008,... more

Stayed here on the second week of our honeymoon. Upon arrival we were greeted by the Dutch host (nice to hear your own language in a foreign place). We stayed in one of the rooms with a beach view. Great. The suite was very large and clean. The tea service in the morning was a great touch. Food was good,... more

The couple that run the resort are wonderfully friendly. The pool is very nice. The food is fantastic. And yet I am left with a... more

We liked this place; the food, the people, the rooms and the no fuss relaxation offered. There are only ten rooms which makes for a less package holiday experience and are designed with a blend of safari and Arabic and are a pleasure to be in with lots of open aspect and views of the sea a few metres away... more

I stayed at the Unguja in September for 8 nights with my mum and two children- aged 8 and 6. It was the most wonderful place I have ever stayed. We were given a very warm welcome by Elies when we arrived and shown to our Lodge. We had been offered the family lodge and none of the pictures on... more

My wife and I stayed at Unguja Resort (or Lodge as it seems to be sometimes known) with our two teenage children for six days at the end of July and into early August. Prior to our stay, we had undertaken a 16 day overland trip through Kenya and Tanzania that included safaris and basic camping out, so we were... more

This was a wildly and almost unjustifiably expensive stay. The 'huts' you stay in are luxuriant in their design, but not always in the execution of the design. (The shower leaked, the private plunge pool was just that little bit too cold to stay in, the basins were loose in their mountings). If you crave privacy and intimacy this place... more
