We were looking for a genuine homely place that will give us thw true feeling of Zanzibar. We didnt want to be in a big hotel where we are just a number and our stay was amazing. Max the owner is true gem in hospitality, he really loves hosting and giving you the true Zanzibar experience, the staff is also nice & if you looking to be treated as if you are home Babalao is the place. Theres also great Resturants that Max recommended and we tried them...our favourite was Barack and the "fresh from the sea" seafood barbaque on the beach is an amazing experience. Theres tons of activities at your doorstep and you spoiled for choice and come back to your home fully welcomed and its peaceful like a small "big" family. Thanks Max and your lovely wife for giving us the true Zanzibar holiday experience.

I liked everything. However, the places I liked the most were the pool, volleyball court, and restaurant.

We spent nearly a week at the newly opened KAI Zanzibar Hotel & Spa in Nungwi as the final stop of our honeymoon — and what a perfect ending it was! From the moment we arrived, the KAI team went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. They personalized so many details for us, including a beautiful floating breakfast to celebrate our honeymoon. We stayed in a villa with a private pool, which was absolutely stunning — and yet we still found ourselves admiring the gorgeous common pool area too. When we arrived after a long safari tour, I wasn’t feeling well, and the team immediately made me a fresh ginger tea. They even arranged a dinner takeout and brought it to our room so I could rest — it’s these thoughtful gestures that really stood out to us. The entire facility is peaceful, relaxing, and beautifully maintained. Our villa and pool were cleaned daily, and it was such a joy to come back to a fresh, welcoming space every day. Mounir and the whole team were so warm and attentive — they truly made sure we were looked after from start to finish. The location is great too — close to the beach and nightlife, yet tucked away enough for some serenity. We’re so happy we chose KAI for the final part of our honeymoon and we’d absolutely come back again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a boutique luxury experience with exceptional, personalised service! Thanks again for this memorable stay 💗

The Oasis Blu provides a private and most luxury boutique experience. From the slightly off the beaten path location, with is own breathtaking sand bank beach, the views are spectacular from day to night. The rooms which are all separate oceanfront villas, are large, well decorated and modern. The individual pool allowed us to have complete privacy and still experience the beautiful outdoors. All the staff, including the chef, are extremely friendly, welcoming and professional. They made my husband and I feel so comfortable and truly went over and beyond to make our stay exceptional.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The property is located right on a beautiful sandy beach with crystal-clear turquoise waters, making it the perfect spot to relax. The breakfast was a pleasant surprise, offering a good variety of options like meats, fresh fruits, and eggs made to order—though it’s not a buffet. The room was spacious and exceeded my expectations, and the bathroom was equally roomy. The water pressure was great, and I had a lovely sea view from the balcony. Internet was fast and reliable throughout my stay, which made working remotely a breeze. Plus, the hotel has a generator, so there were no issues with power outages. During the day, I enjoyed working in a quiet, shaded area of the hotel, and in the evenings, I dined on fresh seafood with wine right on the patio by the sea—such a special experience. The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing a detailed note with local price tips to avoid being overcharged, and sharing some great information about the island. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing, stress-free stay with good service and a beautiful setting!

The whole thing is perfect. In the first few days, I was sick and uncomfortable during my physiological period. The hotel staff cared about me very much, insisted on sending breakfast to my room, and bought medicine for me for free. I care about my health and happiness every day. After I recovered, I booked a trip for me and found a great dance for me. Everything is perfect and everyone is fine. I will come again ~

Amazing location right by the beach - 10/10. Staff were really helpful and set up a tour for us when we arrived late the previous evening so that was really useful! Gave good restaurant recommendations too. They washed our clothes for us too for a very reasonable price. Good breakfast. Very clean room.
