A friend and I stayed at this resort over Christmas and New Year 2011/12. The resort is lovely, with a great beach and pool facilities (5 pools I think). We were well looked after by the staff and enjoyed the food (one traveller also a vegetarian). There's a lot of focus on the italian guests (high numbers of) and we... More

I recently came back from from staying at the Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort and it truly is a "Royal Gem"! From the moment you enter the gates of the resort, you can feel and see the beauty of the grounds and sea ahead of you.

When we arrived we were welcomed with a refreshing drink and the breath-taking view of the sea from the reception. The rooms were nice and spacious with large bathrooms and balconies... More
