I'm probably lucky. I got a great hotel room with a kitchen, a seating area, a huge bathroom, I paid only 3000 rubles when buying a tour. The ocean is warm, there are many locals on the beach in the evenings. No one is touching you. Expensive food. The place is not touristic, unaffected and cheap. You need to rent a car and everything will be cool.
The hotel itself is nice. But... We need to take the superior rooms... The conditions there are great. Huge rooms under 100m. sq. m. In ordinary standard rooms, the conditions are bad. Another disadvantage of the hotel is that there is nowhere to go. The territory is huge. Three pools. You can just walk around the territory in the evenings. That's what we did on warm January evenings.
It is better to choose rooms in the main building. The territory is fenced and cultivated, the cuisine is varied, there is no alcohol (but you can have your own). The beach is great, but you need to be careful - there are a lot of hedgehogs.
A good hotel in a non-tourist location. On the beach, instead of aunts in pareos, local teenagers are playing football - it's great. The hotel is big, the rooms are good. Minus: very poorly fed. Although, this is a problem for Zanzibar as a whole.
Great huge rooms, which are in separate houses. Small comets speak in the general building. The beach is a little far away, but I liked everything so much
If you decide to relax on the island of Zanzibar, choose your place of residence carefully. Even in one hotel of good stardom, there may be completely different rooms in terms of comfort. We did not save money and chose a room in the main building on the 3rd floor (without elevator). Economy rooms are more like a corridor system barracks: tiny rooms without windows, or rather, windows facing the common corridor. Breakfast and dinner were not bad, fruits, 3-4 kinds of hot and vegetable snacks. The private territory is large, several detached cottages with a private pool, which compensated for the lack of its own coastline and beach.
Nice hotel, friendly staff. Of the disadvantages, the restaurant's menu is not diverse, which is natural for Africa.

it is a very quiet place, it is quite convenient to go to the beach, but no one has canceled the tides. Everyone was at work during the day, so the beach was practically empty. We went on New Year's Eve. It suits us. It is better not to take budget rooms in this hotel. The superior comfort rooms are excellent. We got here by accident, we wouldn't have returned a second time, but we got a good company, so we had a good time and, in any case, we tried to explore the island and visit a few places
The Ostoy hotel . The food is terrible. The prices are horse-drawn. Five for the price of three. What service fees are hidden . The bike is rusty junk for $20-25 a day . A shabby hotel and service

A new, nice hotel, but a very, very modest dinner and a COMPLETE LACK of alcohol! It's good to spend the night, but it's boring to live for more than 2 days.
