The hotel was at the end of a 6 night safari in two fabulous resorts, Jongomero Camp and Selous Safari Camp This was a restful place but the food was distinctly ordinary in the evening with a buffet that failed to inspire. The Lunches which were from order were excellent with great Lobster and Tiger Prawns. The rooms were comfortable... more

We spent a week at Ocean Paradise resort in February and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. As we approached the road where the hotel as situated, we were slightly hesitant, but as soon as we arrived at the resort, we were struck by the beautiful plants and trees along the driveway and the gorgeous reception area. On arrival we were warmly... more

A wounderful hotell with people that makes us have to go back, so we booked a new visit in nov-09. The staff was half the stay, and the breakfast and dinner was to die for. The room 147 was the best with our wounderful cleaninglstaff Lucy and Roger. The hotell was beautiful designed and the big pool perfect. It was... more

The Ocean Paradise was just what we needed after bouncing around on game trails for a week. The views of the Indian Ocean are impressive and the public areas are quite attractive and well-maintained. Sitting in the lounge having a cocktail watching twilight fall over the grounds with the ocean in the background is a perfect way to end the... more

Even aiming off for Africa (don't see why I should though), this is a basic beach front hotel. We were there over Easter and found the staff generally very slow and the bar staff were particularly surly. The pool was particularly dirty and one wondered what bugs it contained. Lunchtime food was OK and the pizzas were particularly good but... more

We stayed at this resort for 5 nights while in Zanzibar. If you want to just relax wth a few good books this is a great resort, but if you are going for entertainment, spa or swimming in the ocean this is not the resort for you. The staff at this resort were for the most part great. The rooms... more

Being a frequent guest of the Gulf Hotel in Bahrain who operate the Ocean Paradise we decided to give it a try and were not disappointed. It is a great hotel to just get away from everything and relax. The beach bungalows were well appointed and very clean. What was amazing was the overall friendliness of the staff, to be... more

Just returned from Zanzibar and had a great stay at the Ocean Paradise. In summary: Staff - wonderful, helpful and friendly (I was astounded when some previous reviewers said they were not welcomed - the staff couldn't have been nicer to us! ) Rooms - spotless and well maintained - we had a junior suite beside the beach - it... more
