Well Done White Sand Lux team and Camille!
Truly excellent boutique hotel, with 1st class service and team. Attention to details is second to none. Our butler Idrissa was excellent. Food quality really good. After few days at the White Sand, we moved to another 5* hotel up North... Hmm... Not the same category.

Very beautiful hotel and good kite surfing school
The hotel is very beautiful and people working there are very kind. The kite surf school is very good. The food was good and they organized also a African night with shows and African food. We recommend this hotel for 100% and would love coming back. The AC was not working but was immediately repaired. We got a free wellness treatment for the inconvenience.

L'hôtel est tout simplement magnifique, sa place est une des plus belles de l'île. Les petites villas sont superbes et œuvres de surprises (piscine privée, douche et baignoire d'extérieur...) Mention spéciale pour les repas, on se croirait dans un restaurant gastronomique :-)

The villas are beautiful spacious clean and beautifully decorated. The gardens around the villas were stunning and the plant name plaques were useful for the amateur horticulturist ;-) the staff is super friendly and professional. The food was great and there are some fun daily activities to enjoy. It’s a great place to stay if you want some luxury and piece and quiet! There aren’t even any sellers on the beach trying to constantly sell you stuff.

New Love
Our stay was more than I ever expected. My new beau suggested White Sands in Zanzibar for my birthday getaway. This is where we fell in love and experienced the life that would could have together. I would have loved him no matter where we were but White Sands made it the sweetest dream. We promised to do a two week stay next year. The private villa and the staff were just amazing. We had a butler who drew my bath in the outside bathtub...perfection. The food was also fantastic.

Most Amazing hotel ever!
Honestly the most incredible hotel we have ever stayed in. The location is stunning, right on the incredible white sand beach of Paje. The villa will literally take your breath away, but then there is the staff; nothing is too much for them at all, and the butler service was impeccable! Definitely stay here!

Tolles kleines Hotels mit Service der Extraklasse
Traumhafte Urlaubstage in einem kleinen Hotel der Extraklasse. Ausserordentlich guter und freundlicher Service. Hotelmanagerin hat uns jeden Tag kontaktiert und nachgefragt ob alles passt. Das Restaurant ist sehr gemütlich und wir wurden mit köstlichen Gerichten verwöhnt. Das Bungalow Cinnamon 1, das günstigste im Angebot, war sehr geräumig und komfortabel ausgestattet und bietet genügend Platz für 4 Personen. Das Hotel liegt an einem sehr schönen Strandabschnitt von Paje. Zu beachten sind jedoch die Gehzeiten des Meeres. Schwimmen ist nur bei Flut möglich. Lange Strandspaziergänge oder Fahrradtouren am Strand sind möglich. Wer trotzdem Schwimmen will, kann dies im Hotel eigenen Pool tun. Ebenso gibt es ein gutes Wellnessangebot. Wir können das Hotel uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen und kommen gerne wieder.
