Top 8 Condos in Zanzibar Archipelago, Tanzania

May 3, 2023 Myesha Cogley

A group of islands and islets some 25 miles off the Tanzanian coast, the Zanzibar Archipelago is headlined by Unguja (often referred to simply as Zanzibar) and Pemba. Once a separate nation, Zanzibar has a long history of trade with the Arab world, dating back to at least the 11th century. The capital, Stone Town, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has many interesting historic attractions. Zanzibar's bright white beaches and nearby coral reefs make it very popular with the sun and sea set.

AHG Waridi Beach Resort & Spa

A charming and welcoming resort situated on one of the most beautiful beaches of Zanzibar, where you can experience the island with the right balance between comfort and informality. Waridi Beach Resort & Spa is located only 40 kilometers from the international airport and the city of Stone Town. It is located on the north-east coast, in Pwani Mchangani, in front of a wide beach of fine white sand that stretches between the sea and palm trees.

Amazing week

Reviewed By 101erikaf

Relaxing week spent at the Waridi Beach resort! It is such a nice place to spend your holiday when you need time off from a busy life! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious and cozy. The food is buffet style; healthy, with good quality and variety. The beach is so white that you need sunglasses on! Lots of opportunities for excursions. I would highly recommend it.

Tourist - Trap

Reviewed By MichaelGFrankfurt

Location: this is the only positiv aspect, it is nearly on the Beach; 1st you habe to pass the local city and the house is embedded in between a Restaurant, Diving Station and Union Appartement House: it are not Bungalows, this are appartements in a bad shape, they need to be refurbished, the only good thing are the wooden beds, bathroom is in a very bad shape Arrival: there was someone on time for handing over the key, but his only aim was to offer us a sunset boat trop; I refused and he got angry and from than on we got no informations any more; you can’t rely on the given informations, they are fake

We stay at MAISHA MAREFU 20 days this March, the apt is very good size, comfortable, very clean (spot on) and full of stuff that you need. The location is strategic, close to all village amenities and to a wonderful beach just at few minutes walking. Warm welcome by all staff Ulica,Jessica,Winny and Rama always smily, friendly and available. We met the owner Mr Moreno a very gentleman and genius handyman...many thanks for the amazing time spent together with you and the other beautiful people staying in the other apt (Lara,Elisa).

Nakupenda Apartments

beautiful, silent and well maintained getaway

Reviewed By Sandro N

We stayed 15 nights here. A couple who was looking for some privacy and retreat on self catering. Very well maintained! World class shower (i know about what i am talking about) The view was for us exeptional. 500 meters from the beach. The local community infront and this beauty of coulours from the indian ocean. A lot of common places to relax or even working on the computer. The pool has a very good size, even to have a sporty swim. The flat is very stylish and modern but still with a lot of local influences. Big compliment. The kitchen is basic. For long term stays the kitchen equipment can be more detailed for cook lovers. All our few needs been serviced very nicely by Fazil and his team. We never felt disturbed or over serviced. We could be ourselve. But we also have to say that we had the whole property only for us. What a pleasure and our review is written based on this. We would like to say thanks a lot for this warmly stay. It help us a lot to come down as we wanted to.
