We had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were beautifully clean and comfortable, and the breakfast each morning was delicious. Every detail was perfect, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. On our last night, we were surprised with a special romantic dinner prepared by the hotel at the pool, which made our experience even more memorable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay!

It’s not an area with the most beautiful beach you can find on Zanzibar. If you’re interested in experiencing the white sandy beach and the ocean, you can join a boat trip on some days and visit the neighboring hotel for a day of beach relaxation.

The staff were amazing from the time we arrived. Martha recieved us well and got us checked in, very freindly, helpful and welcoming. Ibrahim explained all the available tours they had on offer. The resturant staff were also so wonderful. A big thank you to Harouna, Theresa and their manager. Thank you to Peter, for the supprise dinner and beautiful romantic dinner setting in the garden on our final night.. To Fathma, and the housekerping team who were on top of things, servicing our room promptly. Very neat and clean.. Thank you to Mariam the massage therapist for the relaxing and professional service . To all the Barman who prepared our drinks, the entertainment team and finally to each and every staff member at Filao Beach Resort who contributed towards ensuring that we had such a wonderful stay and superb experience. Our deepest gratitude to all of you.

The beach was not ideal for swimming.

Nice bungalows and beautiful grounds. Friendly staff. Many nights they bring in local entertainment or have an event.

The beach tide is complicated and never very good for swimming. Also there are determined tour and souvenir sellers so you cannot easily relax on the beach. Far away from everything.

Nice little quiet resort with amazing staff that always make you feel welcome and at home. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The gardens and the beach bar are amazing. A wonderful place to spend a few nights in Zanzibar if you prefer a small cozy resort.

It isn't the best beach to swim at and it isn't the best location, however, there are many ways of getting around so it's easy to go around the island to other beaches (Which are usually quite busy) and there is a tour guide which can help you organise trips.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of spending two unforgettable nights at Filao Beach Resort. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism by the incredible staff. One of the highlights of our stay was the special private dinner they prepared for us. It was a truly exquisite culinary experience, and the attention to detail was remarkable. The ambiance was heightened with a beautifully decorated room, adorned with candles, which created a romantic atmosphere that we will cherish forever. What truly stood out during our stay was the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that every moment of our visit was perfect. Their genuine smiles and willingness to assist with any request made us feel like cherished guests. Filao Beach Resort is a hidden gem that we fell in love with. The tranquil surroundings, pristine beach, and the overall serenity of the resort provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. We cannot recommend this place enough. Our heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Filao Beach Resort for making our stay truly magical. We look forward to returning in the future and creating more beautiful memories at this exceptional destination.

Amazing staff, very kind, accommodating and proactive from checkin to checkout, delectable breakfast, the dinner surprise was amazing and appreciated. Also, thank you very much for the room upgrade. A very peaceful place

They went out of their way to make a special dinner for my partner and I and they were very friendly.

The set menu’s and there was not a snack menu at the bar which I recommend. There was also not a lot of restaurant around the hotel so you didn’t have a lot of options to choose from.
