Guest Reviews 4.6 / 5
Our stay at Bamboo Hotel was wonderful. The property is small, not crowded, and features stunning architecture in a dreamlike location right by the turquoise waters. The views – whether from the infinity pool, the room, or the restaurant – are absolutely breathtaking. The staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful, and warm, making the stay feel personal. Rooms are clean, modern, and beautifully designed, with excellent housekeeping. A plus: laundry service is mostly included. The gym is surprisingly spacious and well-equipped, with both free weights and machines, and the spa offers great treatments for relaxation. The food at the hotel is delicious, from breakfast to dinner, and the atmosphere – whether enjoying a romantic candlelight dinner or a relaxed breakfast with an ocean view – is truly special. Minor downsides: Orders can sometimes take quite a while and occasionally something gets forgotten (“pole pole” – the local, relaxed pace). Service standards are not always exactly what you might expect in Central Europe – for example, red wine might occasionally be served a little too warm. However, none of this was a real issue for us, and it all felt part of the very laid-back island charm. Be patient! Conclusion: A beautiful, peaceful boutique hotel with a lovely setting, extremely kind staff, excellent food, and stunning views. Perfect for unwinding and enjoying a peaceful break.
I just wanted to take a moment to express my deepest appreciation for the wonderful hospitality and care you’ve shown even before our arrival. From the warm welcome message to the thoughtful offers and attention to every detail, it’s clear that you truly care about creating a special and memorable experience for your guests. Your professionalism, kindness, and personalized approach have already made us feel at home and incredibly excited for our upcoming stay. It’s rare to come across such genuine hospitality, and we’re so grateful to be spending part of our honeymoon with you. Thank you for making us feel valued and celebrated — we can’t wait to arrive and experience the magic of Bamboo Zanzibar in person. What I truly love about Bamboo Zanzibar is the perfect combination of natural beauty, elegance, and personalized hospitality. The property feels like a peaceful escape — surrounded by lush nature and the calming sound of the ocean, creating the ideal atmosphere for relaxation and romance. The design of the villas and spaces is stunning — blending luxury with a touch of local authenticity. It’s clear that every detail has been carefully curated to give guests a unique and memorable experience. More than anything, I appreciate how warm, attentive, and welcoming the team has been — even before arrival. It feels like more than just a stay — it feels like being invited into a peaceful paradise created with love.
Booked a 3 night stay at bamboo, one of the most pretty rooms I have stayed at with an amazing view. Booked the room in the jungle villa which was a surreal experience but definitely wouldn’t recommend for those who have insect phobias. The service was 10/10, the workers made our experience 10x better and tried to accommodate in every way they could. There was a 24 hour security at our villa which made us feel super safe. Also booked a night at the ocean view villa which was also absolutely beautiful. Definitely recommend and would visit again.
