Hotel advertises all inclusive however nothing is indeed included. Hotel charges surcharges for almost everything which was not appreciable after paying additional fees for all inclusive packages.

We stayed in one of their newer Ocean facing suits with 3 beds. upon arrival, a few things were not in place as expected but the staff worked hard and fast to fix or repair anything that was not as it should have been. I greatly appreciated all the effort and hospitality of the following team members; Athumam, AKA "King Arthur", Tomas, Lemalali, and Felisse in the dining room. Each and every one of them deserves recognition and a reward for their hard work and dedication. Cleanliness: The staff worked hard keeping the common areas and grounds clean and manicured. Our room was cleaned daily and sprayed for mosquito's ever night during the turn down service. Thank You! Spa: We received excellent and professional massages at the spa, highly recommend All-inclusive package: was not worth the money for us, since we were not at the hotel all day to take advantage of the meals and the food was average at best. The drinks were just ok as well. Location: about 1+ hour away from town

A big heartfelt thank you to everyone at Bluebay Beach Resort & Spa for making our stay truly special for the second time. From the amazing Group General Manager Mr. Bhakti ‘Dass’ Bangar to the kind and professional Guest Relations Manager Mrs. Fatima, to Mr. Manoj who even took his day off to show us the beauty of Zanzibar, and to every single team member from housekeeping, front office, restaurants, and beyond your warmth, smiles, and genuine hospitality touched our hearts. It’s not just the location or the facilities that bring us back, but the people who make it feel like home. Bluebay will always be our favorite hotel in Zanzibar and we are truly grateful for everything you’ve done to make our stay unforgettable. #BluebayZanzibar #ThankYou #HospitalityWithHeart #UnforgettableStay #ZanzibarLove #GuestExperience #GratefulMoments

I had an unforgettable experience at Bluebay Beach Resort & Spa. From the moment I arrived, Mr. Dass, the General Manager, made me feel like I was home. He is kind, professional, and incredibly welcoming — a true leader. The staff were also amazing: Atila, Rashid, Khadija, Khalfan, Chef Oscar, Erick, Yaya and others (whose names I sadly can’t remember) were all so friendly and always addressed guests by name — such a thoughtful and rare detail! The rooms were cleaned daily, mosquito control was done regularly, and the entire environment felt calm, safe, and relaxing. Breakfast was smooth, and dinner was a beautiful experience every night — with live African performances, Maasai dances, singers, and a buffet that changed daily. I had so much fun and created beautiful memories. Even though I’m back home now, my heart is still in Zanzibar. Thank you, Bluebay team — I’ll definitely return, and I already started recommending you to everyone I know! Highly recommended — one of the best resort teams I’ve ever met!

It was a wonderful experience in paradise with a truly African flair - the staff were amazing and I loved the spa - a place to be pampered and to let go of all the stress and mental baggage - what a happy place! As a solo traveller and female at that, it was a place to find me again! Highly recommend!!

Amazing beach views & the pool was wonderful. Spa was very nice and they gave us good tea. We stayed with a group and the buffet was good as well we all enjoyed it. There are also some restaurants on the beach for the all inclusive price. Cute cafe as well.
