Hotel terbaik di Marumbi

R&R in a friendly and welcoming environment. Zanzibar was on the bucket list and using this hotel as the base for us to explore the island was a good choice. As you do, you read reviews and then make the choice based on reading between the lines. The hotel food, accommodation, entertainment and facilities were value for money and representative of similar priced hotels in other third world tourist spots. We thought the buffet offered a good variety, often having different themes. Our all inclusive holiday package proved to be cost effective and the drinks available, 24/7, were most enjoyable. The hotel has three pools and sun loungers were always available. The beach was ok to stroll along, when the tide was out, and you could take this opportunity to visit the nearby village and interact with the locals. The hotel does provide a free shuttle bus every day for guests who would like to experience a beach that is more commercial and user friendly. The bus drops you off at a beach cafe where you can use their sun loungers when purchasing food or a drink. This was perfect for spending time sunbathing, swimming, browsing in the numerous souvenir stalls and interacting with the Masai beach boys. We took advantage of using the travel agents onsite at the hotel to book excursions which enabled us to explore the island and we found them to be reliable and competitively priced with our tour operator. Five of us also took a trip on a local's motor boat across the bay to visit a sandbank and mangrove forest for $15 each. Be prepared to haggle to get the price down to what you are comfortable to pay. We also took the opportunity to eat at a Said's Bustani Local Restaurant located 200m from the entrance to the hotel, walking along the road towards the village on the left handside. Two Tanzanian meals with drinks for $20 was an enjoyable experience as was the 200 shilling ride in a Dala Dala to the village beyond Marumbi which we boarded outside the hotel. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel and our visit to Zanzibar.

If you want to enjoy your holiday, please do not book at this resort! The first day we arrived in the evening around 23:00. To check-in, they are making a copy of your passport (while this is not happening in other resorts in zanzibar or tanzania). Coming in to the room we saw that the beds were full of stains and there was a huge nest of insect eggs in the shower. After going back and forth to the reception they finally changed the bedding and removed the insect eggs. The next day they came for a deepcleaning of the room. The power at the resort keeps falling out, hence your aircon will stop in the middle of night. In two weeks time this happened a couple times every night. Everytime, we woke up from the heat and then noticed the aircon was off again. We also stayed at another resort where there was no power outage at all, thus this was a problem specific to paradise beach resort. Likely due to overload on the power network. At a certain point the aircon stopped working all together. Luckily they were able to fix the aircon. The matrass in the main room was sagged. My mom already had pain in her back and it didnt get any better sleeping on that matress. We went to another resort for 3 days and here the matress was good and my mom didnt have that much pain in her back anymore, until we returned to Paradise Beach Resort, where it started all over again. Since I cannot eat meat, garlic or union we checked out the a la carte restaurant before we arrived, but unfortunately this restaurant was closed (without notifying us beforehand), only the snacks could be ordered. This made it very difficult for me to eat something nice on holiday. At a certain point the entire coconut bar was closed, which meant I did not have any food at all. We had to contact more than 3 people from the resort in order to get some food, each time telling us its not possible. Eventually the chef of the restaurant did make the samosa for me, but it took us more than an hour to even get it arranged. Additionally, the walking buffet was not clean at all, as the first day the yoghurt was sour but the second day it was not, indicating to me it was kept outside the fridge for way too long. There was also some blue/white stuff on the cheese, and the guests in the resort are touching the food with their bare hands and tasting the souces from the spoon and putting it back in. The resort didnt pay attention to all of this and just let it happen. My mom still has stomach ache from eating the buffet. The bathroom has a horrible sewage smell, as the sewage smell comes up through the toilet. This is also something we havent experienced in the other resort we stayed in or in the lodges of the safari. So again something specific to paradise beach resort. The pillow outside had been pooped on by birds, and instead of cleaning it, they just turn it around. Not acceptable and really disgusting! Last but not least, one of the last days we went to the butterfly centre, and I had left my sigare

新酒店，印度人投資的，環境很好，服務業比較熱情。包三餐的套餐，住了兩天，飯菜品質挺好，還不算重複。酒店前台可以安排出海到對面的半島海灘看日落，不過對面海灘需要付費，每人一萬先令，通常海灘有活動，表演等。酒店屬於休閑風格，安靜，整潔。 他們的總經理塞班先生很熱情，有個服務員Maxmillion，服務很到位，推薦品嚐他們的石頭城玫瑰葡萄酒。 另外，藉機會推薦一位當地的好司機，老家來自阿曼的默罕默德.阿里，人好，找的海灘去追海豚，看海星，浮潛等等，包船才30刀，前後三個小時，船長還贈送了水果，感覺服務很到位，自覺給了小費，很不錯的體驗。圖片裏有這個司機的名片，大家可以找他。

Every things are excellent and everybody are very pleasant, welcoming and always smiling. Kennedy, Edina, Peter, George Chef and all of them, without forgetting garden & housekeeping teams and Massaï people make the success of this paradise ! Abdel, Ino and Idi from Coralia always professional to provide excellent hospitality ! Thank you for your respect and kindness !

Les plus : La vue de l'entrée de l'hôtel est magnifique, surtout de nuit et le grand patio en bois qui abrite la réception est magnifique. Le parc est joli et bien entretenu. Les chambres sont spacieuses avec une belle vue sur la mer et les lits sont impressionnants par leur hauteur. Les salles de bain sont propres et le personnel est très gentil bien qu'ils ne parlent pas très bien anglais. Les moins : La piscine n'est pas très propre et devrait être mieux entretenues. Le personnel déguisé en Masaï alors qu'ils n'en sont pas. La nourriture n'est vraiment pas terrible (poisson trop cuit et viande très dure) mais le burger végétarien et les soupes sont bonnes. Les coktails, vraiment imbuvables. Difficile d'avoir des bons coktails dans un pays musulman et Zanzibar ne fait pas exception.

The service was splendid, the receptionist was so gentle and understanding. Their restaurant service is top tier. I won't mind staying there again on my second trip.
