This place was truly memorable. My girlfriend and I had a wonderful stay, especially enjoying the Romance Pavilion right in front of the ocean. The service was exceptional, and both Bruna and Lisbetty were incredibly professional. They genuinely cared about our comfort and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The hotel is the perfect place to relax and unwind, with a wide variety of delicious breakfast and lunch options. Everything exceeded our expectations, and I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Zanzibar.

Me and my girlfriend had an amazing time at the Melia Zanzibar resort. Food at the buffet and other restaurants was very good. Nighttime singers were good as we were eating but not much happened after. Rooms were very clean, and we were given an upgrade which was even better. We were very close to local dive centers which was very handy as we did dive. It was pretty quiet around the hotel, but could be the possibility that we came slightly off season. Two servers that were very happy and friendly that I would like to commend were Muhidini and Elly. Always brought a smile to our faces and were extremely helpful. They are definitely two faces to bump into if you choose to stay here!

My spouse and I spent 9 days at Melia Zanzibar in late April for our honeymoon. Despite it being the rainy season and the resort undergoing partial renovations, the team turned what could have been a "quiet" trip into a world-class, movie-like experience. ​The "Level" Upgrade & Exceptional Service ​Recognizing it was our honeymoon, the resort upgraded us to a Beach Front "Level Package" room. The suite was breathtaking, featuring a massive balcony and premium all-inclusive service. The sheer scale of the resort is impressive, yet the buggy transport was so seamless and efficient it made the entire experience feel incredibly elite. ​A Masterclass in Hospitality: Chef Tara Singh & Sujeet ​Being vegetarian, we initially struggled with menu variety and felt a bit homesick. That changed when we met Executive Chef Tara Singh and his colleague Sujeet. It was deeply humbling to realize these two talented chefs traveled from India to Zanzibar to serve guests from across the globe. ​Chef Tara personally took charge of our experience, booking us into the specialty restaurants and hand-crafting fresh, diverse vegetarian meals that were simply spectacular. His nature made us feel completely at home; he didn’t just feed us, he cared for us. We also want to acknowledge the local staff—Lilian, Bruno, Nyosolo, and the reception team—who travel long distances daily to commit themselves to the guests. Their humility, respect, and "good laugh" made every day brighter. ​Mind-Blowing Safari & Unique Soul ​The resort helped us book a once-in-a-lifetime Safari experience that was executed with military precision. From the pickup and the scenic plane ride to the full day of wildlife and lunch, the return transport was flawless. It was truly mind-blowing. ​Back at the resort, the soul of the property shines through their donkey sanctuary (saving mistreated animals) and their bee sanctuary. We also highly recommend the Village and Cave tour for a humbling and unique look at the local culture. ​Final Thoughts ​Melia Zanzibar is a place of immense heart. To the staff who travel far to greet us with smiles, and to Chef Tara and Sujeet for their international dedication: Asante Sana. Our only wish is for more permanent "tasty" veggie options on the standard menus, but the bespoke service we received was better than any buffet. ​We left with memories that will last a lifetime and cannot wait to return one day with our future children.
