    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The Melia Zanzibar's a 40-acre garden property set right on a white-sand beach, with two infinity pools and a spa.

    The main infinity pool here's surrounded by palm trees and sunloungers, and there's another one in the spa*. Dining and drinking options range from a library-inspired bar to a restaurant on the beach. Other facilities include a 24-hour fitness centre*, a beauty salon* and Bali beds* on the sand.

    The hotel's on the edge of Kiwengwa, a village in north-east Unguja – an island that's part of Zanzibar. It's set right on a white-sand beach, with a coral reef just offshore. You can get to the nearby Gabi Beach if you hop on one of the golf carts run by the hotel.

    While you're away, you can speak to us anytime - we're available 24/7 via the TUI App, phone, SMS and email. The easy-to-use TUI App is also packed with info and tips. It sends you important updates, like your airport transfer times, too.

    After somedays doing a safari, we went to Meliá Zanzibar to finish our honeymoon. The choice could not be better! Everything is organized and for some days we forget that a Pandemic is around the world (all the needs for covid-19 where there, hand-gel alcohol, face masks,..) We stayed at Romantic Pavilion, the view from the room take our breath away. The quick access to the beach and gabi beach bar were really nice. We have been lucky that we could dinner in all the restaurants of the hotel, everything is working even when the hotel looks like its open only for you. I must say that going in this time makes even more special your days at Meliá Zanzibar. But like every business, is the workers who also make the house and here we can find such a great team of workers, a little family that you win for some days! I wonder I could remember the name of all of them, Mohammed, Martin, Paul, Said, Shani and some much more. When they sing a friendly song for you at one dinner, you can’t feel more special than that! “Jambo, Jambo bwana, Habari gani, Mzuri sana” We hope one day go there again because without any doubt this is a great place to be! Asante my friends!
    Magnificant Stay & Service

    Last July 31st my GF and I went for the weekend to celebrate her birthday. We were treated like royals. On her birthday nite, the hotel made one of a kind cake. It was memorable as the tea came and sang for her..what a surprise. Managers checked on us each time wanting to know if everything was going on well. They send us champagne in the room. The dinners were so great, still cant get my mind out of that Tuna dish. The service was extraordinary and the experience was epic. The barman made the top-notch drinks. The pool always clean and you felt safety was well-considered especially during these COVUD19 times. From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank you Melia Zanzibar Team for great service and memorable experience, we will sure come back.
    Perfect place for your engagement and more

    Also one person can make a difference in the world. And if you have full hotel of such people, they make your life very special, at least for the time you stay in Melia Zanzibar. It is difficult to express in words how grateful we are for all the efforts of Melia Zanzibar staff, including the management. They always went the extra mile. They don’t only work with hands, they work with their hearts. They always strive for excellence. We would like to thank all of them from our hearts for all the care, attention, endless energy and support they gave us during the whole stay, including the very special night when we got engaged. What we also very much appreciate is the paradisal location, the exclusivity of services and the strong attention to details. We wish the whole team and Melia Zanzibar all the best.
    Amazing experience

    Me and my fiancee had a wonderful time at Melia! We stayed 5 days before moving to another hotel which we booked for 6 days in Nungwi. We checked out but came back later the same day and decided to stay 6 days more. The room was very comfortable and clean, but it was the great,friendly staff who made our stay so awesome. We were treated like family, and made new friends, thanks so much to all of you, we will most definitely come back. A special mention can be made of the food, the superhero chef Arjun with his magic hands gave a new meaning to food for us. Thank you Melia, you are simply the best!!! I would not look any further than Melia when choosing a hotel in Zanzibar. Carel and Ksenia

    We were walking down the beach and suddenly manager rishi came and introduced himself and talked about his restaurant and claimed the best seafood and pizza in town. So we decided to check this place. We were surprised the food and service was top notch, fish tuna was cooked to perfection. We had almost been to all the hotel in zanzibar but this place was the best so far.unfortunately it was our last day in zanzibar so we couldn't gave another try. We hope to be back to zanzibar by November. Thnks melia thnks Mr rishi
