Amazing architecture, quiet and nice pool. Good access to the beach and close to many other attractions, restaurants, shopping etc. We were a bit underwhelmed from our expectations of the services and from the online pictures.

Honeymoon-vibe

Jag och min fru var här och vi fick en "honeymoon-vibe" trots att vi varit gifta i fem år. Vi blev verkligen bortskämda av allt från platsen, känslan, vyn men framförallt av människorna och servicen på hotellet. Alla såg verkligen till att vi hade bra och gjorde det lilla extra för att vi ska känna oss bekväma och välomhändertagna. Det gjorde inte saken sämre av att allt började med en uppgradering till sviten utan extra kostnad. Verkligen, underbar vistelse. En av våra absolut bästa. Många fina minnen och bilder kommer vi få härifrån. Stort tack Bamboo Hotel!

Highly recommend!

WOW! The view, the rooms, the food, the pool, the service, the gym, the yoga sessions, the private BBQ-experience. We could go on! Everything you want from a 5 star boutique hotel! I’m fairly well-traveled, and there is nothing I would change with this hotel or the staff. Incredible experience from start to finish. Cannot praise Bamboo higher all through our stay. Even after we left they helped us with hotel recommendations (when we had a bad experience with our second hotel of our stay), and offered to help us out immediately. The team makes it feel as a home and really care about your entire experience. This was our first visit, and will be on top of our recommendation list for friends visiting Zanzibar.
