We have just returned home after a dream holiday at the Melia Zanzibar. From the moment we passed through the main gates and entered the hotel grounds, we felt instantly 'at home'. The warm and friendly welcome/treatment we received on arrival to the day we left, shone above everything else. The Management team and Staff were simply awesome.

The hotel, rooms, villas and pavilions, all overlooking the Indian Ocean, are set amongst the array of beautifully designed gardens. The hotel offers 4 restaurants, of which we tried them all, and found every meal delicious.

To get to the beach you have the choice of using the Hotel's bus service or enjoy a 15 min or so walk. On our first morning there, we decided to walk down ourselves, and from that moment forth, despite the heat, we preferred to stroll down the lane to contemplate the wayside, adorned with flowering shrubs and trees, and to breathe in the warm African air.

We would like to thank all the staff at Melia Zanzibar for making our stay really comfortable. They prepared our room beautifully each day, took care of our wine glasses at dinner time and served us plenty of cocktails at the pool. We were absolutely satisfied with our Terrace room which was large and had ample space to hang our clothing. The bathroom was great. The bed was perfect, not so soft - just perfect and the air-conditioning did a great job without making too much noise.

The infinity pool was big enough for all the guests to enjoy and never felt crowded. Fresh, clean towels were offered immediately when arriving - and always with a smile and some welcoming words.
The weekly BBQ held on the beach was really great. During our stay the rhythm of low tide offered space for long relaxing walks. The sand cleaned every day.

The food at Melia was amazing. Every day dinner had a certain theme, and throughout the day different menu selections were provided. If you love fish, fresh meat and lots of vegetables and fruits - this is the right place to go. Portions were big enough. Melia also has a gym onsite open 24 hours. The resort offers good Wi-Fi coverage. We really enjoyed staying at Melia and can honestly recommend this for relaxing vacations. Thanks.

We had our honeymoon at Hotel Melia in Zanzibar. Our room had a wonderful view to the Indian Ocean. The Restaurants are inviting and very pleasant. Everything was perfect. We are hoping and expecting to experience other Melia hotels worldwide, perhaps even returning to Melia Zanzibar in the near future.
