A Truly Magical Stay at Ocean Boutique Hotel 🌊✨

Ocean Boutique Hotel was the perfect getaway. A special thank you to Yocinta, the manager, who surprised us with a birthday cake and Swahili singing, a late checkout, and her constant kindness. All the staff were amazing, Alfred, Aisha, Agustino, Carina, Debora, Kelvin, the pool team, the cleaners who kept our room spotless, and those who prepared our beds each night with mosquito nets. Everyone was always so kind and smiling. To anyone I missed, sorry! You made our stay so special. Beautiful location, peaceful atmosphere, and we left feeling truly cared for. Highly recommended.

Wonderful hotel situated right on the beach. I particularly enjoyed the dinning area with expansive views of the Indian Ocean. Bedrooms were very comfortable and clean. Staff were courteous and attentive. Highly recommended for quiet or relaxing escapade.

Fantastisk

Hadde et fantastisk fint opphold på Ocean Boutique i sommer. Beliggenheten er helt perfekt - rett på stranden med fantastisk utsikt og enkel tilgang til det indiske hav. Det rolige området gjorde at man virkelig kunne slappe av og nyte ferien uten støy og mas. Hotellet ligger strategisk plassert slik at man får den autentiske strandopplevelsen man drømmer om på Zanzibar. Personalet fortjener en særlig ros og var utrolig hyggelige, hjelpsomme og gjorde alt for at oppholdet skulle bli perfekt. Ingenting var for mye å be om, og de hadde alltid et smil på lur. Den varme og genuine gjestfriheten gjorde virkelig forskjell for hele opplevelsen, og jeg følte meg trygg og godt ivaretatt hele tiden. Maten overgikk alle forventninger og ga meg en deilig smak av både lokale og internasjonale retter. Rommet ble holdt upåklagelig rent gjennom hele oppholdet, og alle fasiliteter var i toppstand. Ocean Boutique er det perfekte valget for dem som ønsker en rolig, avslappende strandferie med førsteklasses service. Kommer definitivt tilbake!
