Jambo Essque Zalu Team! Asante sana for the wonderful stay and for making our time in Zanzibar so special. We truly enjoyed everything — the beautiful hotel, the delicious food, and especially the amazing staff. Everyone was incredibly warm, kind, welcoming and always smiling. You really made us feel at home and made our stay unforgettable. We’re also leaving Zanzibar with a few Swahili words in our vocabulary… and of course, we now know the Jambo Jambo song by heart! 😄 Hakuna Matata! Asante sana for everything. We will keep beautiful memories of Essque Zalu and Zanzibar. ❤️
