The best place to be in Zanzibar
Rockson, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very stylishly designed hotel. Beautiful decor & tropical gardens leading to a picture perfect white sandy beach. Gorgeous large comfortable rooms. The perfect place to chill after our safari’s & stay in Stone Town. Thank you to the chef for fantastic food, especially the curries. All the staff were so lovely and the service was great. We also enjoyed the low tide sea safari with one of the staff. We highly recommend this as a beautiful chilled place to stay.

Wonderful resort with personalized service, gorgeous pool and equally fantastic beach. Staff is pleasant and always willing to go the extra mile. Half board meant breakfast and dinner were included. Food was varied and good. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

The workers there were well mannered and hardworking. I noticed that the first day I was there. They make sure your arrival is very welcoming and will go out of their way to make everything as comfortable for you. And of course the property there is beautiful. Everything is cut to perfection, cleaness, and beauty. I loved every minute I spent at Lux Marijani Hotel.

I celebrated my honeymoon on June 8th at Lux and was thoroughly impressed with the experience. In fact, I plan to return next year at the same time. I hope to see Grace, who works at the reception. She truly deserves to be a manager. Lux, I am coming back and would love to stay in the same room, number 65. Thank you for making my honeymoon a magical experience for my wife and me.

8/10 Very good

poor menù a la carte with too high prices and especially the cost of the wines for the quality they suggest. In two weeks no a single dish changed.Room service is too slow (one hour is the average waiting) and the food arrive completely cold, I tried this service twice. The housekeeper once opened the room door not knocking at 8.30 am and they knock the door at 9.30 pm to sanitize.

An unforgettable experience at Lux Marijani ZNZ

Our stay at Lux Marijani was magical, and it’s hard to find enough words to describe how unique this place is. First and foremost – the staff! Every single person we met was outstanding. You quickly build a personal connection with many of them, and they bring joy and attention from morning till night. We had the most contact with Clementina, Gloria, Mustapha, Mildred, Olivia, Mirsho, Isaac and Reemha – all smiling, welcoming, humble and genuinely kind people who truly want to give you the best holiday. Manager Sumit was always present, engaging with guests and ensuring everyone had a wonderful stay. It’s clear he leads a team that truly cares. The dining experience was superb – both buffet and à la carte. Head chef Nitesh impressed us by creating dishes outside the menu, while pastry chef Desi crafted desserts on another level. The bar team – Alex, Michael and the rest – were a joy every day, full of energy, humor and professionalism. Special thanks also to Abu, the animation manager, who kept the atmosphere lively and made sure all guests felt included. Housekeeping kept our room spotless with twice-daily service and evening turndown – a real touch of luxury. Flexibility is excellent – meals in the restaurant, beach lounge, on the beach or in-room. Going on an excursion? They prepare a lunchbox. All in all, we had an unforgettable holiday. A warm thank you to Sumit and his team – you made our stay something we’ll never forget. And by the way – no mosquitos!

Fantastic hotel with amazing rooms. The staff are fantastic and extremely polite. The hotel puts on activities which are great for children and adults each day. Definitely recommended.
Luke, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing hotel and staff! My every need was met and there was always a staff member close by who was willing to help. We arrived early and our rooms were not ready, they took our bags from us and allowed us to get ready in the change rooms. We went to our excursion and came back to find our luggage in our rooms! They even offered late check out for us! Ahmed is the best bartender ever! Made the best drinks and always had a smile on his face! Too many amazing staff to call out. I will miss Lux Marijani and the memories I had made over that week! The only down side I would say is the location is a bit far from stone town and other excursions around Zanzibar. However, the remote location makes for relaxation, quiet and great beaches! Expect a minimum of 1.5 hours each way to commute into the city areas like Stone Town. Other than that, for what you get in quality and celebrity treatment, the distance is the minimum of your worries! The staff literally cater to your every need! One other story, I came back from an excursion and needed dental floss. A staff member was prepared to call a pharmacy to get someone to deliver it to my room. I declined because it wasn’t necessary but just goes to demonstrate how serious they take guest satisfaction! Loved this place and will miss it tremendously.
The best bartender ever! Ahmed!

My husband and I didn’t spend a lot of time on the property as we got married on the beach at a nearby hotel….but they decorated the room and had flowers for us at reception when we returned from our wedding. The staff is super friendly, grounds are clean and customer service is great.

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at LUX at the end of May — the place is absolutely beautiful! From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, the staff made our experience truly special. A big shoutout to Kennedy at the front desk — his hospitality was out of this world! So pleasant and polite, he took the time to show us around and made us feel at home right away. Huge thanks to Abdul at the cashier desk for the amazing upgrade to the Executive Beach Front Room #9 — what a treat! And Ali at Café LUX, thank you for your help — such a well-mannered young man. We will definitely be coming back again!
