Great little Annex hotel, to the main hotel tembo house (less than 1 minute walk between the 2) We had a family room which had 3 large double beds and plenty of space for 2 adults and 2 kids. Breakfast was very nice, with a varied selection. Pool facilities and restaurant were both great. Hotel staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The front of house manager (Kassim?) provided a great service and they assisted us with advice and helped arrange activities in stone town. Would definitely stay again!

Prezados Senhores, Venho, por meio desta carta, expressar minha mais sincera gratidão e apreço pelo atendimento excepcional que recebi durante minha estadia no Tembo Hotel, ocorrida entre os dias 10/05/25 a 17/05/25. Gostaria de destacar, em especial, Munir rashid abdallah cuja conduta profissional e dedicação superaram todas as minhas expectativas. Desde o momento da minha chegada, fui recebido com um sorriso caloroso e uma atenção ímpar, que imediatamente me fez sentir acolhido e valorizado como hóspede. Munir rashid abdallah demonstrou não apenas um domínio exemplar das suas funções, como também uma sensibilidade admirável para lidar com as necessidades dos hóspedes. Em diversas ocasiões, antecipou minhas solicitações, ofereceu sugestões valiosas sobre passeios locais, e resolveu rapidamente pequenos contratempos com uma postura proativa, empática e extremamente cortês. Atitudes como as do seu e dos seus Funcionário são reflexo de um profissional que ama o que faz e carrega consigo o verdadeiro espírito da hospitalidade. Ela é, sem dúvida, um grande ativo para a equipe do Tembo Hotel e um exemplo a ser seguido. Fico extremamente satisfeito por ter escolhido o Tembo Hotel como minha hospedagem e, certamente, pretendo retornar em futuras visitas a Zanzibar. Reforço meus parabéns pela equipe exemplar que construíram e, principalmente, pelo excelente trabalho de Munir rashid abdallah, que merece todo reconhecimento. Com votos de sucesso contínuo a toda a equipe. Atenciosamente, Da Fonseca, Joaquim Jorge Suíça/Portugal 17/05/2025

Not a good stay!
The hotel is on the beach. Little did I know that we would get a room in another building behind the hotel. Air condition did not cool enough. The safe did not work…they tried to fix it… they could not. Only 3 towels, only 3 water bottles. We were 4 people. Bathroom not clean. Floors not clean. Not nice pillow. Restaurant got everything about our order wrong. Food not nice. The smell of diesel when we had lunch was horrible. Sorry to say, but I Can not recommend this hotel.

Stora rum och helt ok sängar.
Tyvärr var jag sjuk under min vistelse men övriga sällskapet tyckte frukosten var rätt tråkig. Frukt och sötsaker
