Surprisingly Good

We got a very cheap last minute price via Expedia but reading some negative reviews we didn't know what to expect. We liked Paridise Beach Resort. As others have mentioned you can't swim in the sea but there is a nice sandy beach & surrounding gardens with 'loungers' & a few hammocks. Also area beside pool. We went to the other beach & it was even nicer & we were able to swim. We had lunch there & were very disappointed by the food & thought it was expensive compared to other better hotels on the island. We went B&B and you can buy a buffet lunch for $17 or dinner $25 (including 1 drink). We upgraded to inclusive for $35 pp for the last day. The buffet food was OK rather than good. The furniture around the resort was very interesting, often made out of old boats. The rooms however are more basic, we had a double bed & a single bed in a large open area. The single bed was a proper mattress & big enough for an adult. Our first room was near to the kitchen & the drone of the ventilation kept me awake, they moved us to another room nearer the sea, which was much nicer. Both bathrooms were functional rather than luxurious. There is also the 'Ala Cart' restaurant beside the 'Zanzi Bar'. The food there was better than buffet. We stayed 3 nights & 2 nights at another hotel & 1 night in Stonetown. There's not much to do so a change of scenery was welcome. It was good to stay in Stonetown but probably better to go only for a few hours. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Skuffende mat

Skuffende buffet med råvarer av billigste variant, utvannet juice og lite variasjon. Nesten ingen sjømat selv om Zanzibar skal være et paradis for akkurat det. Stranden nesten ikke egnet for bading, men det visste vi fra før. Stort sett hyggelige ansatte.

Leider merkte man der Anlage die zwei Corona Jahre an. Wir hatten den Eindruck, dass kurz vorher erst wieder geöffnet wurde. Das Zimmer war der Horror. Überall Schimmel, feuchte modrige Betten und Kondenswasser lief von den Wänden und der Decke. Bei einem Bett war der Lattenrost gebrochen, als wir dies nach drei Tagen bemerkten, weil unsere Tochter solche Schmerzen hatte, wurde es repariert. Die Anlage an sich ist schön. Der Strand müsste besser gesäubert werden auf Grund der Flut und Ebbe Situation. Außerhalb der Anlage ist weit und breit nichts, außer drei kleinen Läden mit Souvenirs. Am Strand entlang sind alle anderen Anlagen leer und überall liegt viel Müll (Plastik, Bekleidung, Schuhe usw.) Auch wurden die Algen in der ersten Woche nicht immer weggeräumt. Wir haben für 12 Tage fast 3000 € bezahlt, da würde ich mir einen anderen Standard wünschen und hoffe ich bekomme einen Teil als Entschädigung zurück. Das Personal war motiviert und freundlich. Das Essen war reichlich und gut, wiederholte sich aber nach 10 Tagen. Außerdem buchten wir All Inclusive aber vor Ort gab es dann extra all inclusive und vieles war dann wieder nicht inkludiert. Preise für Getränke zwischen 5 und 7 Dollar sehr überteuert!

Technically you are not staying at Uroa beach, there is a shuttle that takes you to Uroa beach Free of charge every hour. The beach at the hotel is far less than desirable. The check in process is a joke and aggravating after a long trip. The Maasi,security is a pretty interesting concept, they very helpful. The food sucked, and are no 2nd options around the area to be had, nor any nightlife either after 930 you’re pretty much help hostage. The internet doesn’t work, I can’t count how many times I heard people complaining about the internet. Someone’s complaining about as I write this, I commandeered the Internet passcode for the reception desk that seems to be the only place that the Internet is working .

Finition des chambre laisse un peu à désiré (porte voilée, peinture qui a coulé sur le sol, ancien câbles électriques qui dépasse du sol, très très peu de rangement) Ménage toujours impeccable.
