A Tropical Paradise at Hotel Isla Bonita, Zanzibar We recently had the pleasure of staying at the enchanting Hotel Isla Bonita in Zanzibar, and the experience was nothing short of magical. The first thing that struck me was the warm and genuine hospitality of the staff. The team at Hotel Isla Bonita goes above and beyond to ensure that every guest feels welcomed and pampered. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellent service truly set this hotel apart. The accommodations are simply stunning. My room boasted breathtaking views of the crystal-clear turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. The design seamlessly blended modern luxury with traditional Zanzibari elements, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The room was impeccably clean, and the thoughtful amenities provided added a touch of indulgence to my stay.

There are sometimes rare power cuts!

It was my 4th visit to Isla bonita within the last 2 years, and I m sure this will not be the last. A hotel located in one of the most beautiful beaches of this paradise.Mr. Metwaly, the hotel manager, is working hard to develop his business and deliver the best experience to his guests. Recently, he added a gym that will help you to maintain your body shape after enjoying the delicious meals prepared in the hotel cuisine.

Vacation was not that long

Everything was incredible and made our trip a dream! The property’s location is amazing and the sea view room we booked was perfect. From the warm reception and great service, to the welcoming + very helpful + attentive staff, the clean rooms, big pool and great food for breakfast, lunch and supper (buffet of course), everything was awesome and made our trip most enjoyable. Picture this: have your afternoon coffee on a cushiony swing right on the beach with a gentle sea breeze on your face as you stare out into the crystal blue ocean and bury your feet in the powdery white sand. Thank you Mustafa and Ahmed for your hospitality and for being kind enough to let us check out late because our flight was late in the evening.

I liked everything! Please keep it up!

We loved the hospitality of the hotel from the moment we got there the energy was welcoming and very family friendly. The staff are amazing and ALWAYS willing to help and accessible at all times.

If your family/kids don’t like cats like ours then unfortunately it’s something they can’t really control they are around but again the workers worked around the clock to make sure our girls were comfortable by keeping them away. There’s only so much you can do. The WiFi wasn’t great but hey you’re on an island in Zanzibar.

Everything at Isla Bonita was amazing. The manager Ahmed was excellent. He was available whenever we needed him and helped us book sightseeing tours. The staff was excellent and also available whenever we needed them. The resort is great and the views are amazing; our rooms came with a balcony and a breathtaking ocean view. The rooms are of a high standard and are cleaned every day. The food was delicious and the location was very safe. I strongly recommend Isla Bonita to everyone!

I liked everything. I do not have any complaints.

We were thoroughly impressed. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, with all the necessary amenities including a TV. The hotel staff were truly awesome - they were welcoming, friendly and always ready to assist with any request or inquiry. The location of the hotel is perfect, with stunning views of the ocean and easy access to the beach. The hotel's facilities and services were top-notch, with a fantastic restaurant serving delicious meals and offered a great selection of soft drinks and fresh juices. One of the highlights of my stay was the fantastic service provided by the hotel staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable, and their friendly and attentive approach really made me feel at home. Overall, I highly recommend the Isla Bonita hotel for anyone visiting Matemwe, Zanzibar. The combination of clean and comfortable rooms, stunning location, delicious food, and outstanding service makes it a top choice for accommodation on the island.

Isla Bonita is a wonderful place with friendly and helpful stuff. We were welcomed as old friends. The rooms are clean and cozy with fantastic sea view. Also you can go to the roof to see amazing sunrise. We loved this quiet place, we enjoyed walking along the wide beach, we miss our small talks with general manager. Thanks for unforgettable time at Isla Bonita! BTW if you enter the beach and turn left there is a nice place to eat called Spicy mama with tasty authentic food and european service.

Great location right on the beach, nice rooms and pool. Relatively small so felt more homely and staff were very nice and very helpful.

Meal service was a little slow and you were often asked to order for a few hours before meal times to speed up the process. Food was very nice though.

Breakfast is great. You ask them to make what you like. Fresh fruits, omelette etc. Staff is happy to help.

The new gym is under construction. Wish it was ready. Next time going there will enjoy the new gym. The manager Mustafa is doing his best with the new gym.

The staff here were amazing. They made my stay worth while. Rooms were cleaned everyday. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Given that the facility is a bit dated the rates could be better. The location is far from the road, good if you have your own car if not you can find some nice spots along the beach.
