Reviews for Essque Zalu Zanzibar
Perfect hotel
This has to be my favourite hotel that I've ever stayed in. The grounds and rooms are beautiful and immaculately kept. The food is excellent, there are plenty of amenities and entertainment was regularly on offer. The greatest part of this hotel however is its staff. Everyone is so helpful and kind. Desperate to go back! Thank you for an amazing stay.

Wonderful stay
Everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish, the rooms are clean and quite large, the view is amazing especially at Jetty restaurant. Don't even get me started on the food, we were suprised with the variety and how each item on the menu and buffet were cooked and seasoned to perfection. The staff made the stay 100 times better, everyone was nice and welcoming, specially Mahmoud, Islam Moussa and Amina. The themed evening events and music were sooo pleasant. Overall one of the most beautiful stays we ve ever had in a hotel.

Amazing experience #Zalu
Amazing stay with kids. The view to the sea, the warm welcome of the people and the service were excellent. Buffet with a lot of variety. Very good location and safe. Really big swimming pool. And the sunset from the bridge is just a unique moment.

Trip
I recently stayed Zalu with a group of friends, and we had a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were welcoming, friendly, and always willing to help, especially Moreen who constantly checked on us to make sure we had anything we needed. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making it easy for us to enjoy our vacation. We also enjoyed the food, which was delicious with a good variety of options. What made our stay even better was the overall atmosphere. The hotel felt peaceful, safe, and perfect for both relaxing and spending quality time with friends. We created some amazing memories here. Thank you to the entire team for your excellent hospitality. I would definitely recommend Zalu to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and I'd be happy to visit again.
