I felt like my room was a little small and dark, but the bed is pretty comfortable. There are in-room wifi so I was able to work in my room at night which was super nice. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful...my taxi was late and the security guard pulled up his chair for me to sit down by the door and wait. Also, the restaurant has really good pasta. The pizza was just okay, but I had the gnocchi with prawns...it was delicious!

Hidden Zanzibar Gem
I had a great stay at Sahari Zanzibar. The beautiful pool and gardens feels like Bali. The rooms are comforable and the sound of the ovean every night was a beaitful plus. I enjoyed wood stove pizzas and friendly and accomadating staff. The owners are lovely people. This place has a cool luxurious vibe to it. It is a true gem.

Nice small shabby/chic hotel. Pleasant stay if you want complete relaxation. The food was very good and it is located not far from the Iconic Rock Restaurant. Which is definitely worth a visit for a unique experience.

Excellent location and comfortable rooms which have "shabby chic" decor. This means a bit tatty finish but big comfortable room with great ac. Staff in restaurant particularly good. We arrived at 10.20pm and was a bit disappointed that check-in guy (Soulaman?) was unable to get us a drink from the bar! Didn't expect food but surely a drink could be found. Hotel is not too big and perfectly located for a totally relaxing stay. Would suggest a walk up the beach to Paradise Beach Resort where beer is much cheaper.

we had a great time at Sahari. the room was a bit tight as we were 3 but we enjoyed all the hotel's lounges and shades. i would have liked more airing for the shower. all in all it was a great stay, food was also tasty and the pool was pure heaven for our daughter. also, the tour options that were offered by other agents at the hotel was very good for us and we used it daily.
