The 11 exclusive villas are all massive and have their own private sea view terrace and plunge pool. Everything is meticulously designed for comfort and utmost luxury. The four course meals at...

One of the most luxurious and well designed villa I have ever stayed at. Running a 5 star resort in a remote part of the world has its challenges and this property has overcome these challenges and proven it as a well managed true luxury resort.

Special thanks to our main butler (Salim) who for religious beliefs could not stick around when my wife wanted to unwind and let her hair down. However, he did manage to always be there within a moments notice. The villas are an architectural marvel. Food was top notch. Customer service was awesome. We were basically spoiled during our entire stay.... More

Our villa was very spacious and every detail had been considered, it was perfect. There was everything you could possibly need for... More

The staff is very helpful, excuse small errors, because you see a sincere... More

After a wonderful safari we were delighted to spend several days at the Zanzibar Star of the East. Our Villa (Star of India) was very comfortable, and well appointed. The level of service we received across the board, was top shelf. We all enjoyed the lovely beach and the daily afternoon volleyball games. The food and beverage at Ocean Blue... More
