We had a wonderful stay at The Mora. The facilities are great, the beach is lovely, the spa is magical and the dive school was awesome. We enjoyed the variety of food at the various restaurants and highly recommend the Teppanyaki one night. All the staff were fabulous and very friendly, Elizabeth was particularly helpful ensuring we got restaurant bookings - Asante sana!

This is a new resort. It is sparklingly clean due to the efforts of all the lovely staff onsite. Of special note are staff members Edgar, Sadik at the pools, Khadija on the beach and George at reception. So welcoming! The facilities, food and guest rooms are top rate.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff at this hotel made our stay exceptional! We were celebrating a birthday and they went above and beyond to make sure it was special. If we ever needed anything all we had to do was ask. The restaurants were fantastic and the property atmosphere was excellent! A huge shoutout to Viola at front desk, Atanas for the entertainment and Ajay, Sanjeev and the team for making the birthday extra special!! Can’t recommend this place enough - thank you to the fabulous Emerald team!

"An exquisite stay"!

Hej, just back from a fantastic holiday at Emerald Resort in Zanzibar. The hotel was "exquisite" with beautiful rooms with African wooden carved furniture, bubbles, fruit and chocolate up on arrival and every day spotless clean. But the best of all were your staff who everyone was so genuinely friendly. You were always greeted with a "jambo" or "I'll hope you're enjoying your stay and is there anything I can do for you?". You felt that they always "walked that extra mile". We'll definitely come back and next time hopefully with our sons and their families. Just a couple of "small tips" to the Hotel management: -a hand rail on the balcony to hang up wet clothes would be good.. - a cover sunshade over the children's play area, so they can also play when it's hot -an ATM at the hotel, especially for those days when local craftsmen were invited to the hotel (we didn´t bring much cash) - and a pram ramp at the outdoor stairs, as there are many families with children at the hotel So thanks again for making our stay so fantastic! Specially to you "Sea", that greeted us every day with a joke and a big smile 😊 Best regards Kim&Björn
Kim, 11-night trip

6/10 Good

Overall very clean and nice resort. Would be better if it were closer to stone town and some of the other main cities, it was an hour drive or more everywhere we went and rides were expensive. The resort was also extremely colonized, Iike there wasn’t a single African restaurant out of the 5 that were there. If you wanted to experience any African/Tanzanian culture you had to leave the resort. The staff is underpaid (which we learned through talking to some of the staff we befriended) so the workers relied heavily on tips (yet there was no atm on site?). The property was Arabic owned but all local, underpaid workers which kind of felt like modern day slavery :( the staff was extremely friendly but unfortunately dropped the ball a few times during our stay. For example, we booked a taxi through the front desk for an excursion we had in 2 days. The taxi never showed up and there was no record of a taxi being booked so we missed our excursion and had to reschedule. Also, I was there for my bday in which my bf planned a whole surprise day in which the staff was supposed to decorate our suite & bring a cake - they never did and my boyfriend had to complain 3 different times before they finally did but it was at 10pm when they came? We made 2 different requests with the house keepers for the mini fridge that were never fulfilled. Lastly, there was no gift shop/convenience store on site, so if you forgot toiletries or needed snacks or anything, you had to leave the resort (far drive

My Honeymoon at The Mora Resort Zanzibar

I had an unforgettable honeymoon at Mora Resort Zanzibar. The room was comfortable and beautifully maintained, providing a perfect retreat. The beach was pristine with clean white sand, and the clear sea water made for stunning views and relaxing swims. The customer service was absolutely top-notch—friendly, attentive, and always eager to help. The dining options across all the restaurants were fantastic, offering delicious food with a variety of choices. But what I loved most were the breathtaking views of the beach that made every moment even more special. Overall, it was a truly memorable experience, and I highly recommend Mora Resort Zanzibar for a romantic getaway.

Property was beautiful, but the room furnishing and condition of the bathroom could be updated if this is to be 5 stars. There was mildew on the shower walls that I couldn’t unsee while taking a shower and the couch in the room looks basic for 5 stars.
