Amazing architecture, quiet and nice pool. Good access to the beach and close to many other attractions, restaurants, shopping etc. We were a bit underwhelmed from our expectations of the services and from the online pictures.

Highly recommend!
WOW! The view, the rooms, the food, the pool, the service, the gym, the yoga sessions, the private BBQ-experience. We could go on! Everything you want from a 5 star boutique hotel! I’m fairly well-traveled, and there is nothing I would change with this hotel or the staff. Incredible experience from start to finish. Cannot praise Bamboo higher all through our stay. Even after we left they helped us with hotel recommendations (when we had a bad experience with our second hotel of our stay), and offered to help us out immediately. The team makes it feel as a home and really care about your entire experience. This was our first visit, and will be on top of our recommendation list for friends visiting Zanzibar.
