I stayed at few hotels in Zanzibar and here it is different - original bush has been saved , added flowers and endemic plants.African style architecture blended inside the garden , tastefully decorated rooms and some villas, each has different theme. I like the local arts around.Pool on the secluded beach , so wonderfully relaxing …Life slows down🌴☀️The cuisine is absolutely delicious. I enjoyed Zanzibar traditional music band

Tulia was an absolute beauty- luxurious. The staff service was top, the details on the building, the place is soo serene. I can’t praise it enough… it was calming. Michaelle treats you like you are her only guest- with much care and attention. They do fine dining so there is two options to pick on for main course each day- which might be limiting for some. It was not the case for us. We loved Tulia and hope to be back again next time in Zanzibar!

    You need to take into consideration the feelings of your visitors....we do not like being targeted by people pestering us to buy from them every time we go to the beach. It really is a negative factor of visiting your wonderful island paradise....it spoiled it for us. Also this happened to us on other beaches in Zanzibar so not just a Pongwe problem....its endemic to Zanzibar.

    Pongwe is an isolated beach, at low tide the sea is very far away and, even at high tide, it is very shallow - you cannot swim. Kiwengwa beach, next door (10 minutes by car) is much better, more lively, with many shops and good hotels.

    It has a beautiful setting, a wonderful beach, it is a small quiet and peaceful resort with very friendly staff. Went for a snorkel out on a boat with local fishermen that was organised by the staff. Beach 1 minute away, directly accessibly from the hotel. Great experience. If you want lots of action go elsewhere. A note for vegans: They made me a superb vegan breakfast on request, with fresh fruit and grilled vegetables. Lunch/supper option always had 2 vegan / plant based meal options. Just bring your own plant milk.

    Beautiful location! Opening your doors onto that most beautiful view of the Indian Ocean is the most incredible things about this! The pool area and Temple bar is also wonderful. Breakfast is adequate. We ate at the hotel 3 times. Twice we had lovely food, once was not so good. We had burritos and they were deep fried and incredibly greasy. We loved Mwini and Perdo, they made our stay really happy. We also loved the hotel dogs, although did feel sorry for them as there never seemed to be food/water for them.

    It is challenging to find an accommodation that can meet both kids' and adults' expectations and TOA Hotel was able to meet our needs and expectations. Their food, from breakfast to dinner, was scrumptious. They also have different entertainments, including dinner by the beach. Their staff is amazing, from the cleaners to management. Very friendly and always willing to help with a smile.
