Das Ocean Paradise ist ein grandioses Hotel. Großzügig geschnittene Zimmer in Rundbauweise, ein weitläufiger, sehr gepflegter Garten, ein weißer Traumstrand - die Hotelanlage hat uns sehr beeindruckt. Dazu kommt ein vielseitiges Frühstücksbuffet, das man mit Blick auf den Hotelgarten und den Ozean genießen kann. Zum Abendessen gibt es wundervolle Themenbuffets bei dezenter Livemusik unterm Sternenhimmel. Die Auswahl an Gerichten ist mehr als großzügig: Fisch, Hähnchen (ein Hähnchengrill) , Schwein, Lamm, frische Pizza aus dem Pizzaofen, frisch Gegrilltes, eine Pastastation und ein tolles Dessertbuffet. Aber was uns am meisten begeistert hat, war das wundervolle Hotelpersonal. Jeder einzelne Mitarbeiter ist uns mit großer Herzlichkeit und Freundlichkeit begegnet. Wir sind berührt von unvergesslichen Begegnungen mit Menschen, die uns nicht nur als Gäste sehr zuvorkommend umsorgt haben, sondern die unsere Zeit im Ocean Paradise unvergesslich gemacht haben. Angefangen vom F&B Manager Scott, der seinen Job großartig macht und sowohl die Gäste, als auch sein Personal im Blick hat. Aber auch Frank, Leo, Laurent, Mary, Hosea und Raymond haben mit Freundlichkeit und Professionalität serviert und sich während der Mahlzeiten dezent und unaufdringlich, aber sehr zuvorkommend und individuell um uns gekümmert. Nicht zu vergessen, die tollen Desserts von Devynus und die guten Gespräche mit ihm. Dazu kommt der tolle Service von Neema, Tabitha und Bwigane. Und alles perfekt gemacht haben die Animateure. Daisy hat ihr Team so ruhig angeleitet und wir haben die Zeit mit Juma, Godgift, Maisala, Yusuph und Irene als sehr bereichernd empfunden. Besonders zu empfehlen sind die Village Tour& die ReefTour mit Juma. Er ist ein sehr kluger Kopf und man lernt bei beiden Touren so viel über das Land. Aber auch die Wassergymnastik mit Maisala, Juma, Godgift & Irene ist toll. Danke an Yusuph&Juma fürs Bao-Spiel-Lernen. Etwas nervig waren die Massai am Strand, die etwas verkaufen wollten. Aber an der Stelle ein dickes Dankeschön an Robson vom Sicherheitsteam. Er hat sich so gut um uns gekümmert und ruhig und freundlich, aber bestimmt für Sicherheit gesorgt. Wir sind schon viel gereist und waren bisher immer beeindruckt von der asiatischen Gastfreundschaft. Aber das Team im Ocean Paradise hat unser Herz berührt. Wir sagen von Herzen Danke für eine unvergessliche Zeit in einer paradiesischen Hotelanlage mit einem beeindruckenden Personal! Es stimmt, was viele sagen: man lässt sein Herz in Afrika!

A beautiful hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. Scott (food and beverages manager) went above and beyond to help us, make us feel welcomed and to offer advice on anything. The food really was fantastic- and such choice! Highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed at Ocean Paradise for 6 nights with our two girls aged 18 and 20 after a busy safari and what a place! It totally exceeded our expectations in every way. We liked the fact that it was a smaller resort and the hotel never felt over crowded. All the staff were so friendly and went over and above in their commitment to ensuring we had a perfect stay. Michael and Scott in particular were a constant presence around the hotel and dining areas. The food was varied and of excellent quality. Indeed Scott went above and beyond to ensure that we had an early breakfast package before we left at the end of our stay. The hotel rooms were large and comfortable and were kept immaculate by the chamber maids. We liked the fact that there were interconnecting rooms which gave the feel of a small family Villa. We can’t recommend the hotel enough.

Jambo! Ocean Paradise was perfect for my family (2 adults and 3 teenage girls). It has such a relaxed and welcoming vibe. The staff, all the staff, are genuinely welcoming, friendly, proactive and nothing feels like too much trouble. EVERYONE greats you with a welcoming 'Jambo'. The resort itself feels sympathetic with the ocean and Africa - with its wooden beams and roofs and the 'African hut' bedrooms (which are lovely air conditioned, spacious & relaxed spaces). The girls loved having a room to themselves! The breakfast is exceptional, the dinners are varied, cater for all and change every night... and they are delicious. The pool is really good, never crowded during our stay, and has a satisfying deep section as well as shallower parts. The hotel does a good job of organising trips and is pretty fair when it comes to prices and exchange rates - they are also very open about the increased taxes imposed by the government. We would not hesitate to recommend Ocean Paradise - especially to those that don't love the cookie cutter, more concrete looking hotels.

Wir waren als Familie 2 wunderschöne Wochen in diesem Resort. Was soll ich sagen, hier stimmt alles. Es war klein und sehr familiär... Also kein Betten und Partybunker!! Die Angestellten waren alle sehr nett und hilfsbereit und vorallem Kinderlieb. Wir fühlten uns total wohl. Das Essen jeden Abend war abwechslungsreich und sehr sehr lecker. Wer hier meckert ist selbst schuld. Riesen Lob an Scott und Simon! Wahnsinn! Unser Sohn trägt das Tshirt was er zum Geburtstag bekommen hat fast täglich. Er vermisst Euch sehr!Passend zum Geburtstag unseres Sohnes haben wir eine Safari auf Tansania gemacht. Wir haben es im Hotel gebucht und es war auf jeden Fall jeden Euro wert. Wir haben mit einem guten Freund (Massai) eine Dorf Tour gemacht und Ebbe Wanderung im Meer. Hier haben wir die tolle Unterwasserwelt kennengelernt. Die Seesterne sind der Hammer. Dann haben wir noch die Blue Safari gebucht. Es war alles sehr schön. Das Resort lädt zum ausruhen ein und Animation findet in sehr kleinem Angebot statt was auch völlig okay ist für Familien die Entspannung und Erholung suchen. Wir kommen defenitiv wieder Scott und Team.

Le site est beau mais sachez qu’ici on ne vous fait pas confiance et on vous traite comme si vous étiez un criminel. À notre départ, nous avons laissé la clefs de notre chambre à la femme de chambre. Nous avons été pourchassé sur tout le site et conduits de force à la réception car ils ne trouvaient pas la clef. Une fois à la réception la clef de la chambre était simplement à sa place ….. Pourquoi autant de remue ménage pour une simple clef de chambre ????

My two teenage daughters and I had a wonderful 8 night stay. The resort was beautifully located on the beach and our interconnecting rooms acted as a detached villa only 50 metres from the beach. Some might say the rooms could do with updating and although they won’t compare to some 5 star resorts they are clean, comfortable, spacious and authentic in style. We had the all inclusive plan which worked perfectly with plenty of meal options of very good quality. The evening entertainment was fun and not intrusive. Other than the beautiful location the main outstanding feature is the staff. They were friendly, happy, engaging and everyone motivated to ensure you enjoy your holiday. Of particular note is the Food & Beverage Manager, Scott from Scotland, who was brilliant! A huge thanks to everyone for making our stay so enjoyable!

WOW, what can I say other than this place is a little piece of Paradise!! We arrived here after a 7 night Safari around Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti, so were looking for something totally chilled and relaxing, and this delivered in every way! We were lucky enough to have booked Villa 104, which is one of the Ocean View ones, and right in the middle of the view, and it was stunning. The rooms are bright, fresh and spacious, with double doors that open on to some decking with padded seating available so you can have a beer while looking out to the beach and ocean, (we were AI and the mini bar in the room was restocked daily, so cold drinks and water always on hand. The grounds are beautifully tended, with large coconut trees and plants all around. The staff are tremendous, whether that's the Grounds staff, reception staff, the bar staff or the waiting staff, all are so friendly and available to get you a drink at anytime. (Tips are always very gratefully received ). The food selection is just amazing, so much choice on every night that you just can't try everything even if there for 2 weeks, (we were 6 nights). Special shout out to Scott Anderson the F&B Manager, (he's from Scotland!), what an amazing guy, so helpful, friendly and funny, he truly understands hospitality & service, a tremendous asset to this hotel. A HUGE THANK YOU SCOTT! Also a special mention to the following - Nancy & Happy in the restaurants and Venusto who was serving the beach drinks while we were there, while everyone was amazing, these 3 went above and beyond to make our stay so fantastic, absolutely beautiful people. 2 things to mention - We did get a fair amount of bites while there, so take some repellant and some cream for bites just in case, (This isn't just this place, so don't worry) 2nd When you go on the main part of the beach, you do get approached by Masai people on the beach selling bracelets, trips, jet ski rides etc, while persistent, they are very friendly and eventually get the message and move on, after a few days they recognise you so approach you less, again nothing to worry about and doesn't spoil your holiday. If you stay on the hotel side of the beach, they do not approach you, only when you enter to go for a swim. Also - Stone Town is well worth a visit, but do it with a private guide, we did and saw things and places other who just took a taxi didn't.
