Beachfront HotelSummary of reviews related to the 'Beachfront' categoryPark Hyatt Zanzibar is a lovely beachfront hotel located ideally close to several restaurants and a public beach that offers a perfect location to enjoy water activities and sports along with experiencing the local culture. The hotel boasts a gorgeous beach view and is situated at the end of the beach, providing guests with a nice location to unwind and relax. However, the beach in front of the property is quite busy and some guests may be bothered by the beach vendors who harass customers. Despite not having a private hotel beach, the hotel is directly on the beach offering guests quick access to the water. The hotel is conveniently located both in the heart of the historic Stone Town center and by the sea with a charming small beach at the foot of the hotel. Some guests enjoyed the experience of mingling with locals and participating in their activities, while some others found the beach small and unattractive due to boats everywhere.

Beachfront Resort

Summary of reviews related to the 'Beachfront' categorySea Cliff Resort & Spa offers a mix of beach experiences for guests. While some reviews mention that there is no proper beach or that the public beach a 10-minute walk away is not clean, others rave about the nice private beach near the golf course where one can swim off the jetty. The staff at the beach is known for being welcoming and respectful. Though some found the private beach not suitable for swimming due to the presence of rocks, others enjoyed swimming off the jetty or in the spa pools overlooking the ocean. The beach may be far from the hotel, but it offers beautiful views of the ocean. High tides may limit access to the beach at times. Despite some negative reviews, guests who discovered the white and fine sand next to the jetty had no qualms about swimming without worry. Ultimately, Sea Cliff Resort & Spa seems like an ideal place to relax and enjoy the magnificent views of the ocean from the beach.

Chuini Zanzibar Lodge by NEWMARK

From $116

Beachfront HotelSummary of reviews related to the 'Beachfront' categoryChuini Zanzibar Lodge by NEWMARK offers a peaceful and stunning oceanfront location, overlooking a fisherman's bay. While there isn't a beach directly at the hotel, the best beaches on the island like Kendwa and Nungwi are just a short distance away. Guests appreciated the communal areas, gardens and breathtaking views, especially of the sunset. The hotel offers beach access through a small beach at the end of the bay, but the water may be murky. Although some reviewers found the beach dirty or unsuitable for swimming due to fishermen and boats, others found it typical of Zanzibar and enjoyed the local vibe. Overall, the hotel is a lovely and tranquil spot for a romantic getaway, but it may not be the ideal place for swimming in the sea.
