Christina and George were incredible hosts. Very accommodating and helpful. Were very quick to offer their assistance. Staff in the dining area as well, Amos was a God send. If you are looking for a home away from home, this is the right hotel.
Sahari is the best hotel I have stayed at because if the AMAZING staff working there. Everyone is genuine and knows what is involved in the term "hospitality". I love everyone here! I will return next year on my annual visit to Tanzania. Thank you all!!!
The staff - particularly in the restaurant - were wonderful. We stayed for 6 nights and were very happy with our choice! It appeared to be a gem within the area.
Extremely hospitable and lovely staff, great food and drinks, beautiful rooms and views - this place has the whole package. We were very pleased.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I felt like my room was a little small and dark, but the bed is pretty comfortable. There are in-room wifi so I was able to work in my room at night which was super nice. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful...my taxi was late and the security guard pulled up his chair for me to sit down by the door and wait. Also, the restaurant has really good pasta. The pizza was just okay, but I had the gnocchi with prawns...it was delicious!
I had a great stay at Sahari Zanzibar. The beautiful pool and gardens feels like Bali. The rooms are comforable and the sound of the ovean every night was a beaitful plus. I enjoyed wood stove pizzas and friendly and accomadating staff. The owners are lovely people. This place has a cool luxurious vibe to it. It is a true gem.
Nice small shabby/chic hotel. Pleasant stay if you want complete relaxation. The food was very good and it is located not far from the Iconic Rock Restaurant. Which is definitely worth a visit for a unique experience.
Lovely and stylish place right on the beach, many cosy corners to chill and relax. Great breakfast room/ restaurant on the waterfront. We have really enjoyed our stay and could definitely recommend this accommodation.
Excellent location and comfortable rooms which have "shabby chic" decor. This means a bit tatty finish but big comfortable room with great ac.
Staff in restaurant particularly good. We arrived at 10.20pm and was a bit disappointed that check-in guy (Soulaman?) was unable to get us a drink from the bar! Didn't expect food but surely a drink could be found.
Hotel is not too big and perfectly located for a totally relaxing stay. Would suggest a walk up the beach to Paradise Beach Resort where beer is much cheaper.
Sahari was a beautiful hotel and we had the most amazing stay. The property is stunningly decorated and the staff were just amazing, so friendly and helpful and there isn’t enough that they can do for you.
