The Residence Zanzibar

It was beautiful, staff were lovely and the accommodation was excellent

Beautiful villas, super private and spotless. Lovely staff and they thought of everything we needed before we did. Tip trip

From the time we stepped into the property, we knew we were in the perfect place. Calm, peaceful with the sound of birds to greet you as soon as you walk into the reception. The staff are absolutely out of this world- their kindness was remarkable. I find it hard to mention all the names here, as each and every single member of staff was exceptionally warm and helpful- to find this is extremely rare. Benjamin helped us out in literally almost everything- including arranging for some medication and testaments for our baby girl. Nitin, the bar manager helped arrange a custom baby chair for her as well and checked on us everyday. The general manager himself lent us the baby chair from his house- it was a truly heartwarming gesture.The property itself is green, lush, luxurious and absolutely opulent. Going for bike rides was something we looked forward to as the beautiful Zanzibar breeze lifted us away into a magical world of nature and its bliss. The backyard pool only steps away from the sea was something we absolutely loved as well. Now coming to the food- the food was magnificent and the service in both restaurants more than perfect. Service with a smile all the way! We looked forward to the meals while we walked down or biked down to the restaurant- anticipating what would be on offer that day :) Grill station was OMG ! The dinner entertainment was also carefully selected- not too loud, just right and very very enjoyable! We will miss this stay for a long long time, no matter where we go, there was something uniquely beautiful about the place.

The residence is a paradise on earth. The residence consists of different classes of villas. The villas contains all the comfort you need for an enjoyable and relaxing stay. The staff are very nice and very very welcoming. They are also very supportive and helpful. The residence has two restaurants and a bar on the beach. There is an activity club inside the residence where you can arrange some excursions and activities in Zanzibar.

What was there not to like? Everything was perfect. We went on our honeymoon and had an amazing time. Our room was very big but confy at the same time. The pool has the right size and the sunbeds are to die for. A lot of natural shades were a big plus ( the sun is so strong that we could only be in the shades ) The bathroom is amazing.!!! The outdoor shower is great to cooldown during the day and the bathtub is perfect for a relaxing bath during the hottest hours of the day We left the room to go for breakfast and dinner. Otherwise the room has everything you need. A cofee maker, a water heater, bottles of water are given every day, fruit
