1.環境非常好!2.主餐廳感覺大廚是印度人,吃了一頓比較可怕的晚餐。還好第二天改BBQ,好吃一點點。其他餐廳,不算好訂。得提前一整天比較有保障。3.入住當晚海邊的趴體持續到夜裡12點,非常吵。十點開始打了幾個投訴電話。在Safari習慣早睡早起,就會覺得體驗很不好。4.房間有蚊子。不像住野奢帳篷,管家每天會專門除蟲。我一進屋就習慣性打蚊子,也不是特別多,四五衹的樣子。但是還是害怕被咬,怕瘧疾。

We stayed for two days, from February 13th to 15th. We booked rooms in different locations to experience different views, and both the garden and the ocean views were beautiful. The staff were all friendly and the food was good. However, we had to check out at dawn on the 15th, so we asked the reception, and the staff at the desk during dinner treated us very disappointingly. They made fun of our English pronunciation in a comical way, even though we live in a non-English speaking country. They also told us to go back to our room and get another card because the Mastercard logo was on the card machine, and when we asked them to try paying, they sarcastically asked if it was the right card. Of course, the card machine recognized the card and the payment was made perfectly. I didn't know that it was the management policy of this resort to make fun of customers who are not good at English and treat them like thieves. If I had known, I wouldn't have made a reservation, but except for that problematic staff member, all the staff were friendly and the facilities were satisfactory. I think I need to think more about whether it is worth enduring the ridicule.

Wonderful clean hotel. staff were always very helpful. Food was very good in the restaurant and at the pool bar. we had some excellent food at the Jetty restaurant. the hotel is over a vast area, so there is quite a lot of walking. there is a shuttle to the beach. Nice beach but spoilt by traders pestering you when you went to the waters edge. We had a meal served on the beach one night, with entertainment which was good. The entertainment in the hotel wasn't very good, this definitely needs improvement. The staff around the pool were brilliant, getting fresh towels and drinks.

Wir waren für einen entspannten Abschluss nach einer Safari für 9 Nächte im Melia. Wir haben das Melia ausgesucht, weil es zum einen kein Betonklotz ist, der überall auf der Welt hätte stehen können und weil es hier einen Bereich für Erwachsene gibt mit einem Plus an weiteren Annehmlichkeiten- The Level. Die Hotelanlage ist eine sehr weitläufige, parkähnliche Anlage - wunderschön bepflanzt, so dass ständig Shuttle unterwegs sind, um von A nach B zu kommen. Wir hatten den Strand Pavillon Nr. 60, erste Reihe und direkt am Zugang zum Gabi Beach- besser geht es nicht.Sehr geräumig und schön eingerichtet, begehbarer Kleiderschrank, 6 Kopfkissen zur Auswahl, eigene große Terrasse mit Liegestühlen und Blick aufs Meer. Die Zimmer werden täglich 2x hergerichtet. Es gibt 4 Restaurants + Poolbar und Beach. Wir können alle empfehlen. Vielleicht könnte man auch im Level Restaurant einmal die Woche das Abendessen als Buffet anbieten- für die Abwechslung. Das SPA ist hervorragend. Die abendliche Unterhaltung ist hochwertig. Die Mitarbeiter sind alle -ausnahmslos -überaus freundlich u. hilfsbereit. Der Strand hat Ebbe und Flut, hat uns nicht gestört, Weil wir am Level Pool immer zu jeder Zeit Platz bekommen haben. Wir waren sehr zufrieden und können das Hotel ohne Einschränkungen empfehlen! Ein Tipp, wenn man sich vom Hotel entfernt, wird man sofort freundlich angesprochen für Ausflüge u.s.w. IMMER und auch für „nette Gefälligkeiten“ (z.B. bei Ebbe wandern) als erstes nach dem Preis fragen. Sonst gibt es böse Überraschungen- NICHTS ist umsonst. Das ist noch verständlich, aber der erwartete Preis dafür ist es nicht. Deshalb vorher klären.

Melia Zanzibar is a very special place for several reasons. The property is vast and that is rare. Beautiful mature gardens are bordering the coast line which is varied from the caves easily accessible from the jetty during the low tide to the swimmable beach a mile away. The carts run there non stop. Don’t let the fact that the beach is 5 minutes ride away to discourage you from booking this property. I hesitated because of it, what a silly thing to do! Location: very favorable near Kiwenga town, and you can take a walk towards it along the beach. The service is outstanding. They make sure that every guest is happy. Dietary requests or a room change were handled promptly- no problem here! Every single person working in this resort is making an extra effort to satisfy the needs of the guests. The entertainment/ music was great and especially during nightly diner service created pleasant atmosphere. Food was good. Many restaurants to choose from. The only one thing I would say could be improved are the drinks, the quality and the taste wasn’t as good as at some other all inclusive resorts. Beer and wine ( both tasty and included) was the way to go here. Also it’s worth noting, and hopefully I am not mistaken, they are upgrading slowly older rooms. Thank you for a wonderful vacation. I can’t wait to return and try other Melias in Tanzania.

We spent six nights at Melia Zanzibar. We had originally booked the Garden Room and the next day upgraded to the Level. I will give this place 4 stars instead of 5 because we were not satisfied at all with our Garden Room in building 16. It was not terrible, but it just does not correspond to a five star hotel at all. The mosquito net was too short, generally there were quite some mosquitos, the bed was the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept in, the doors are very thin, so you can here everything going on outside, the fan was very noisy and generally the room we stayed in needs to big refresher. Fortunately, we were able to get an upgrade to the Level and then spent five nights in a beautiful beach bungalow. From then on, everything was absolutely lovely and definitely corresponding to a five star hotel experience. Generally, the hotel facilities were very well kept, the food was very nice (we ate at the Gabi Beach Bar, the Level Restaurant and at Tamu) and the staff were very attentive and kind. The beach is very nice and calm. During our stay, we were often the only guests at the beach until noon. So - I would recommend this place, but only if you book the Level.

Had the most wonderful time at Melia Zanzibar, full of the kindest people who made our trip spectacular. The food menu at the beach club is great, as the jetty restaurant. Breakfast is delicious too!

Our party of four capped off a week long Tanzania safari with a 3 night stay at Melia Zanzibar! We were looking to just kick back and relax and Melia Zanzibar delivered. We enjoyed spending time at the pool and beach, enjoying the phenomenal views as well as delicious food and drinks that were attentively provided by the staff. All of the food was delicious, we often found ourselves ordering the same thing for lunch as the previous day because it was so good. We particularly enjoyed the Jetty restaurant. It was our last dinner at Melia Zanzibar, as well as our last dinner of our Tanzania vacation. The vibes of the restaurant were elegant and the food and service was outstanding! We had wonderful service from check-in to check-out at the resort. We were quickly driven to our rooms via the property’s golf cart service, as well as had all of our bags taken in for us. The exact same thing happened as we checked out, where from the moment we called the front desk, we had a driver at our door within 5 minutes. Overall, our stay at Meliz Zanzibar was perfectly relaxing and filled with delicious food and drinks, all made possible by the phenomenal team working there!
