This was the best resort we have stayed at. Nothing was too much trouble. They even gave us a late checkout for free as we had an evening flight. Everyone went above and beyond to meet all our needs throughout the stay. And the food was also delicious. We stayed in the romantic pavilion and it was worth everything.

Very nice place and pricey for sure. Ate at all the places here - food was fine but not the greatest. They have a restaurant in the water on a Jetty - great views. Had some good drinks - enjoyed the Washiwashi. Beach is a good walk from the main area but there is a shuttle. Beautiful property with various animal sightings.

This hotel was the cherry on the cake for our trip to Zanzibar. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a bungalow with a sea view where we had absolute peace and tranquility. The staff is all friendly and helpful. The food was amazing and the best value for money and we would recommend Melia Zanzibar to everyone. There is a variety of activities to keep you busy all day long, thank you for taking the best care of us. Until we visit again…..

We stayed at the Level for our Honeymoon and absolutely loved it. We initially booked at the regular part but were looking for a more quiet place for our honeymoon, and the Level was just it! We stayed in a beautiful bungalow, the food was absolutely amazing but most importantly the service was truly on point and exceptional! Every single person of the team did everything they could to make our stay as comfortable as possible. A special thanks to Lilian and the reception team for offering us a great solution for our late departure. A stay we’ll never forget! Asante Sana!!!

We stayed for 6 nights in Meliá Zanzibar with all-inclusive (our first time experience of resort holiday). And could not be happier about the wonderful week we spent there.
The resort is employing wonderful people who not only take care of guests 24/7 but also offer environmental and sustainable contribution to the communities, talent groups, and caregivers for animals of the Zanzibar. They grow their own vegetables, take care of abandoned animals, and have their own bee farm (!) all in perfect shape and free for visit.
The food every night was incredible delicious and versatile. Full board and lots of various drinks offered in all restaurants. Activities are plenty: tennis courts, swimming pool and great gym facilities.
The rooms are getting a bit dated, unfortunately. But the staff is trying to take care of it and renovate frequently. Also, cleaning services are quite good
Thank you to the staff for making our stay so memorable!
