What a paradise !! I've resently visited the Karafuu for the 4th time and I'm definitely going back there in 2010. I've come to really enjoy my stays at the Karafuu with it's friendly staff, not to mention the management, always there to accommodate and make you feel so much at home. There is always such a great variety of... more

Karafuu hotel is amazing. Great place, relaxed and really enjoyable. What really makes the place great though is the Diving Centre. Professional, helpful with everything (even not divign related!). Lars and Daniel are incredibly patient and really do make diving a great experience that you can enjoy. It was great fun to be out there with them. Thank you so... more

After 6 days on safari, my wife and I came to Karafuu for some rest and relaxation before returning home. I disagree with those who are not satisfied with the service--everyone was both friendly and attentive, and took care of all our needs. The food was also very good, amongst the better we had. And last, our room, about 30... more

We were staying at Breezes Hotel, close to Karafuu Hotel and wanted to scuba dive. Breezes fees were very high and we came across Karafuu on the internet. They picked us up whenever we needed a ride to their hotel and allowed us to use all of their facilities without a problem. We went diving with Lars, who really looked... more

My stay at karafuu was one awesome experience. First I want to say that the staff are all very friendly and helpfull. Everything was taken care off upon arrival. Even our luggage that went missing at the airport in Nairobi. The hotel manager took care of it and we got our luggage the next day. My diving experience was one... more

In Octobe 2008, my wife and I got married at Karafuu, what I can say about this hotel is that is has an incredible service, fantastic food and an accomodating staff that managed to handle all of our concerns. The management of the resort were so kind and accomodating with all our requirements, all in all we were about 50... more

We visited Karafuu from 12 - 19 September and it was really a wonderful experience. We have been to Zanzibar before but the stay at Karafuu was even better than our previous hotel. The staff have some difficulty speaking English but they try very hard and their service is really good. We stayed in a garden room which is more... more

My wife and I spent a week in northern Tanzania doing safaris in Ngorongoro and Serengeti. By the end of that week we were really tired and had booked a week in Zanzibar to go there and relax. We got to Karafuu and we received a warm welcome from the staff and had our room ready to start enjoying our... more

I really enjoyed my holiday in Zanzibar, especially in Karafuu Hotel because the location was wonderful and the hotel really fits in well with the surrounding nature of the island. The service was quite good, the rooms were clean and the food was tasty, and although the weather was cloudy we enjoyed the excursions anyway. I really enjoyed my time... more
