Very nice hotel with amazing surroundings, great staff, great rooms and a beautiful pool area! Also the small towns nearby are super fun with some great food options. Definitely recommend this place — enjoyed it a lot more than other places in Zanzibar.

Boa estadia mas não perfeita
A nossa estadia no Fun Beach em geral foi boa, no entanto, não classifico como excelente pois durante a nossa estadia nunca conseguimos tomar banho de agua quente e achámos que o staff no geral podia ser mais simpático e solicito na resolução de problemas. No caso da agua, tivemos que noa deslocar à recepção por tres vezes durante o dia e só a terceira vez e já sem estarmos muito satisfeitos é que disseram que iriam resolver. No entanto nunca ficou resolvido. Na altura em que estivemos choveu bastante e por isso não estavam aqueles dias de calor abrasador que poderiam ter ajudado a que tomar banho de agua fria não fosse um sacrificio. O hotel é muito bonito. Os quartos também, mas achámos que a maior parte do staff não tinha muita formação. Alguns falavam mal o inglês e poucos foram os que achámos realmente simpáticos. A piscina principal é fabulosa e a zona de praia quando a maré enche também é boa. No entanto, quem for para aqui terá poucas horas de maré cheia pelo que aconselho este hotel para quem gostar mais de piscina. A comida no hotel é boa mas o buffet do pequeno almoço achámos que podia ter um pouco mais de variedade.

A wonderful location and great restaurant inhouse. The head Chef Bharat was always ensuring the guests were well fed, and went out of his way to cater to any special needs. Kudos to him and the resort.
