"On it's own away from the outside area, this is an excellent property.
The beach can be accessed by others but that is not an issue and the beach traders are not intrusive.
Shopping, dining, leasure and activities all catered for on site but trips out can also be organised from within the complex.
But the the thing that makes this place are the staff, from the gardening team to head chef, each and every one was courteous, helpful and happy.
Well done staff you make this place."

"Vi havde generelt et godt ophold. Servicen var god, og de ansatte var imødekommende og kommunikerende. Værelset var fint, og AC virkede upåklageligt. Eneste minus var badeværelset, som var uden afskærmet brusekabine og bestemt ikke lever op til standarden for et godt hotel. Hotellet har god beliggenhed helt ned til havet, og stranden er dejlig og umiddelbart mindre turistet end andre steder på Zanzibar. "

"The staff at La Perla were super friendly and couldn’t do enough for you.
The room was very clean but basic and more African style rather than modern which for me was the attraction.
The pool area is extremely clean and there’s plenty of sun beds both around it and on the beach.
Food is the restaurant is very decent and doesn’t cost the earth. The view of the beach from the restaurant is amazing. The resort doesn’t sell alcohol but the restaurant next door does if that’s important to you."

"Property grounds were nice. Rooms are a bit dated. The TV and telephone in our room did not work. Manager at reception was very accommodating and made our stay much better. The massages were excellent. Highly recommend them.! Wifi is awful! Love the balconies! The other downside is the beach, the beach is beautiful but you have to pay 25$ for 2 chairs and umbrella every day if you want to be on the beach. Otherwise they do have beach chairs on man made beach near infinity pool. Just depends on...

"Great place but we were there in early June and there was a lot of construction going on everywhere and we might have been the only people in The place. Breakfast definitely leaves something to be desired, it's a good attempt at American or English breakfast but basically it's bread and you can get eggs any way you want. Do you want pancakes you can have honey or chocolate syrup but they don't know what's maple syrup. The food was okay but not exciting and we didn't get out of the hotel much....

"Beautifully laid out, beach right out every front door, very clean, staff was helpful and friendly, great food and a quiet but still family atmosphere. You can tell the owners give a lot of attention to the details. Pool was so clean and beautiful. Also the landscaping was stunning and gave it an upscale resort feel while still having an intimate feel. They set up an excursion and airport ride and made the whole process easy. Would HIGHLY recommend this place and would stay here again!"

"Tembo Kiwengwa Resort is amazing, hotel is very clean and staff are caring and helpful. This is place is actually 100/10 rating. I have no words to add. The hotel itself is a vacation. Towels were a little musty, just bring your own towels."
Hotel Riu Palace Swahili - All Inclusive - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is new And the staff are great we had an amazing time.
The only issue is that the property was poorly built and already has signs of distress it will probably look worse in a few months"

"Fabulous. Team is improving property to keep up with use but what makes this place magic are the PEOPLE. Wow — words do not suffice to express the care and comfort they offer."
"The hotel was beautiful with access to a stunning beach and views. Sunbeds were enough.The rooms were more than comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. The food was varied, plentiful and delicious. The pools were awesome, all four being a standard 1.2m deep. The activities and entertainment was fun and exciting. Wifi was great! There is something for everyone. Superb hotel for adults and kids alike. Access to a 24hr lobby bar, beach bar and 3 themed restaurants with delicious food (booking via Riu app). Nothing to fault. Taking home a memorable stay at Riu Jambo."
