LUX Marijani Zanzibar

LUX Marijani Zanzibar

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is even more beautiful in person. The rooms are lovely, they have a choice of pillows (!!!) nice toiletries, all vegan! There are many other amenities in the room too. Even a TV that you can cast to from your device & nets on the windows/doors so you can enjoy the air without being inundated with insects! They have mosquito nets on a rail around the bed so you don't have to tuck it all in. (IYKYK). They fumigate regularly. The gardens are lovely, beautiful flowers/trees/plants, a little endemic forest and herb garden! The beach is gorgeous, it is private up to a point but there are beach boys and people selling stuff on the beach - they're not intrusive. There aren't many sea urchins. The reef walk provided by the hotel is excellent. The pool is very nice, they have yoga/water aerobics/village tour each day and other games if you want. The food is great, large variety at dinner, different themes most nights, kids sections and cups/plates. Great desserts! Fussy eaters will be fine. There is evening entertainment which is a bit hit and miss (singing) but generally good like silent cinema and local culture displays. The BEST part of the hotel is the staff. They can't do enough for you, they're so lovely, engaging, not intrusive, just love all of them. I can't say enough good things about them honestly <3 Abdul, Musa, X2, Isaac, Lucy, Lucia, Furahi, Salome, Abubakar, not enough word count to thank everyone! Can't wait to come back. Thank you for a memorable stay xxx"
