Everything! We are very happy with our stay here. This hotel has an amazing view! They are situated on a private little cove. It's so quiet here, it feels like you have the resort all to ourselves. A special shout out to Clyde and family and the staff at Mahi Mahi for taking such good care of us. The room is new and clean, bed is comfy and wifi works well. They clean the room daily which is really nice. The food in the restaurant is really good. You really don't need to go anywhere else. We love watching the tide changes every morning after breakfast and walking the sea bed (must do). You won't get this anywhere else. The sea recedes up to at least 2km. We booked a Dhow cruise from the front desk and it was MAGICAL! When you are on the Dhow sailing the ocean is when you truly appreciate the beauty of Zanzinbar! It's spectacular. It's also easy to walk the beach to nearby resorts and restaurant. Couple of nice bars and restaurants within a 10mins walk. Easy and nice to explore Jambiani. We would totally recommend this hotel.

This was a remarkable experience and everything was perfect. If felt like a 5 stars boutique hotel ambiance. The rooms were spacious, the food was delicious, the breakfast was very rich, tasty with quality ingredients. The team including Plil was super kind and patient to all our needs but above all there was Anna - the manager of this diamond place . She is AMAZING lady that other than her management and hospitality skills, have a great personality and in parallel to her full devotion to make her guests happy with her high class Italian standards, she is helping local children to have proper education. A truly remarkable place with a real magic that wins any other luxury hospitality that you can think of. Thank you Anna!!!

The hotel operates exactly how it is described on its website. I do appreciate "quiet luxury" which can be experienced by a good quality of textiles, large availability of sunbeds, cleanliness, unobtrusive and helpful hotel staff. The focus on sustainability is what caught my attention and I really appreciated it during my stay. The hotel helps you to organize trips around the island and the local boat is available for sailing and snorkeling close to the hotel (at additional cost). Within walking distance you can reach several kite spots. Breakfast is rich, served buffet style. During daytime you can use the beach bar - very convenient, accessible in your swim suit, and in the evening the restaurant opens at the first floor of the main building (where the breakfast is served). I really enjoyed the view while eating. The hotel is located at the beach, but at the same time in the center of Jambiani town. Therefore you can easily experience the local life or stay at the quiet hotel area if that is your choice. The changing tides allow you to experience both the wide beach and the water reaching right up to the hotel, covering the entire beach. Hotel offers the sea shoes for 1 USD a day to protect your feet against sea urchins which are very common there. The lack of swimming pool is not a problem at all in my opinion. I occupied double room which was very spacious and sufficiently equipped.

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at The Loop Beach Hotel. From the moment our group arrived, the service was impeccable. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. I’d like to especially mention January, Lucy, and Veronica for their outstanding hospitality—though every single team member played a part in making the stay memorable. The hotel was spotless throughout, and the flexibility offered by the staff made everything feel easy and stress-free. The food and beverages were consistently excellent, and the inclusion of entertainment added a lively touch that elevated the entire experience. There’s honestly nothing negative I could say. The hotel exceeded my expectations in every way and I would recommend it blindly to anyone looking for a truly enjoyable getaway.

A peaceful and welcoming town with a strong sense of community and a safe, relaxing atmosphere. We stayed in a peaceful part of town, where there were noticeably fewer street vendors selling beads and souvenirs compared to other areas. This made the atmosphere even more calm and relaxing, allowing us to fully enjoy the local charm without feeling overwhelmed.

This place is a gem! A new hotel with a big heart, right by the ocean, surrounded by peaceful gardens and a stunning pool. The rooms are spacious and stylish, the breakfast is fresh and delicious, and very friendly staff. The connection to the hospitality school is inspiring—it's not just a great stay, it’s also supporting something meaningful.. It’s rare to find a place that feels this good in every way. Thank you, Palmera!

If you have only stayed at Sheraton, Marriott, Ritz, King George or similar hotels - this is not your place. But if you are looking for clean beaches, clear sea, delicious food, peace, close contact with nature, friendly and courteous staff - this is it. There are many bars and small restaurants along the coast that offer a variety of food. In addition, in the town (of course African) you can buy products that are very fresh, and the people are friendly. Here you can buy handmade jewelry and souvenirs from the local population and the Masai.

Just up the beach from Paje town, a little quieter but thats what was nice. Wandered to different restaurants along the beach for lunch and dinner. Limited during off season but enough open. We came via Dar Es Salaam airport and ferry. If you can't get an e-visa before arrival, plan 2hrs to exit the airport. We missed our booked ferry and had to pay again for the last ferry on a different company. Used Zanzibar Quest to book the ferry and transport with exemplary service and support via whatsapp and email. The new travel insurance requirement $50p/p on top of the $50p/p visa fee is a scam that mars the experience. The amount of times we had to show our passport and visa / travel insurance was reminiscent of the cold war. Inefficient and overboard. So if you can fly direct to Zanzibar and use e-visa or have patience and a loose schedule. The drive to the Page beach area took about 1 ½ hrs with the first ⅓ taking ¾ of the time with a typical african road experience. Get a good driver. Driving licenses are issued by testing payment of fee. The driver booked by Zanzibar Quest was excellent. Great beach, wind was consistent during the afternoon to either kite or cool down. Bring sunscreen and mosquito repellent. Not a fan of the immigration process or the fees.
