We stayed at Seasons Lodge Zanzibar for 10 days for our Honeymoon and had the best time. Chris and his staff were very accommodating and always went the extra mile to help us in anyway they could whether it be booking transportation or activities at short notice. The staff were very friendly and always happy to accommodate our wants/needs including room service and answering any questions we had. The hotel was stunning with the private cottage being beautiful to stay in with the incredible sea view whilst the communal areas were fantastic with a lovely pool, various beds and seating areas and easy access to the beach. The food was great each day with the changing menu, and we enjoyed every meal we had. The hotel and area was very quiet, which suited us and what we wanted. It’s also well located on the island to be able to travel to other parts within an hour’s taxi ride easily. All in all, we had an amazing time here and would strongly recommend Seasons Lodge Zanzibar as a place to stay whilst your enjoy and explore Zanzibar.

This is a great place to stay while visiting Zanzibar. The rooms are quite nice and it's great to have a little private lounging area for yourself. The shared areas are also nice, and there are games and kayaks/ SUP to use free of charge. Only downside is that the ocean has quite a bit of seaweed right in front of the resort. But there is also a pool which is nice to lounge around as well

Beautiful and Relaxing

We had an amazing stay in this beautiful place. Seasons has a perfect atmosphere: laidback, simple, stunning setting, freindly and helpful staff. We woke and went to sleep with the sound of the Indian Ocean. The menu was varied, reasonably priced, and delicious. Best of all were the friendly staff who made us feel welcome and helped us with queries. The chalet was comfortable and perfectly simple. The atmosphere atvrhe lodge is relaxed and laidback. Whether it's a swim in the pool or sea, a walk on the beach at low tide, or just hanging out in the chalet, this was the best place to spend a few days.

Gorgeous ocean views from our lovely bungalow. Welcoming staff. Food was good, could be improved. I would return but they are closing and going to be a much more expensive resort when they reopen. Too bad.

Amazing place, if you like a small and personable experience this is the place for you. The small number of guests allow the staff to cater to the individual. Nice quiet beach and the lodges have their own personal beach overlook yard area. The lodges are gated so it really is your own space with room and outdoor area. Definitely will be returning in the future.
