Feriehjem i Pongwe

"Et gammelt stort hotell med sjel. Fantastisk beliggenhet rett på stranden og hjertet av gamlebyen. Et supert utgangspunkt til å oppleve byens smale gater og pulserende liv. Hotellet har en lang historie og det ser man på hele bygget. Vi hadde bestilt rom med havutsikt, men vi måtte legge en smule godvilje til for å se havet. En del av rommene vender mot en bakgate på hotellets sørside hvor både hotellets egen og nabohotellets kjøleanlegg lager støy. Samtidig som at nødstrømagregatet er plassert samme sted, når strømmen går (hvilket skjedde flere ganger i døgnet) så høres duren fra aggregatene rimelig godt. Personalet forsøkte etter beste evne å finne et annet rom til oss men det var så fullbooket at det var ikke mye å velge mellom."

"We had a very enjoyable stay at The Mora Zanzibar, and overall it was a highly positive experience. The food was excellent—both in quality and variety. There was a wide selection of dishes, and everything we tried was flavorful and well-prepared. One thing to note is that many of the dishes had a slightly Indian-inspired touch, with similar spices used across several meals. That said, the food was consistently good and enjoyable throughout our stay. The hotel itself is impressive, with a wide range of facilities that make it easy to relax and enjoy your time without needing to leave the resort. It truly lives up to its “luxury all-inclusive” concept. The staff deserve special recognition. They were exceptionally friendly, professional, and always service-minded. Every interaction felt genuine, and they consistently went out of their way to be helpful and welcoming. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. We were also pleasantly surprised by the WiFi connection, which was reliable and noticeably better than what we have experienced at most other hotels in Zanzibar. All in all, this was a very positive stay, and we would happily recommend The Mora Zanzibar to others looking for a high-quality, all-inclusive resort experience."

"We had a truly memorable stay at Konokono Beach Resort, including time in the Isaraya Over Water Villa, and overall this was one of the highlights of our trip. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, and we genuinely felt we built a good connection with several of them during our stay. A special mention also goes to the Maasai guards, who not only provided security but also added a unique cultural touch by entertaining guests with singing and traditional jumping dances—something we really enjoyed. The food was consistently very good, and the overall cleanliness—both in the villa and around the resort—was of a high standard. The setting is simply stunning. The area is incredibly idyllic, and honestly, it rivals—or perhaps even surpasses—places like the Maldives in terms of natural beauty. The water is crystal clear and perfect for swimming, although it’s worth noting that the current can be surprisingly strong, especially during low tide. One thing to be aware of is the pricing of drinks, which we found to be very high. If you are staying in a villa, it may be a good idea to bring your own beverages. The only real downside during our stay was the lack of shade on the terrace outside the villa. Around midday, it became extremely hot, and we missed having a parasol or some form of sun protection to make better use of the outdoor space during those hours. Overall, this is a fantastic resort with a unique atmosphere, excellent service, and breathtaking surroundings."

"Utrolig bra hotel!"

"Alle var veldig vennlige. Flotte rom. Nydelig utsikt"

"All in all a very pleasant place with friendly staff who took good care of the guests . The only downside is the slightly worn bathroom with poor water pressure. A male pushy salesman for SPA and massage was annoying. We were not interested and it took 5 days before he gave up."

"Helpful staff and good food. Also a lot of things nearby to do"

"I loved the place, beautiful with room towards the swimmingpool."
