It was appreciated. The location is great, away from the chaos of Paje but still keeping that accessible and close to Jambiani. The beach is a stone’s throw away and absolutely stunning.

Passion Boutique Hotel Zanzibar - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Firstly, I cannot praise Madalina the hotel manager enough. She is an absolute asset to the hotel with the best management skills I have come across in my many years of travel around the world. Very attentive, always making sure you are happy and have everything you could possibly need without feeling intrusive. The hotel aesthetics are beautiful and the property is extremely well maintained with staff always making sure there are high levels of cleanliness. Wonderful food (thanks to the great chefs) with a daily lunch and dinner specials board along with their standard menu, so, you will never get bored. The breakfast is very tasty with a wide selection of options for all. You are also able to order more than 1 item if you are feeling extra hungry. The waiting staff are lovely and friendly, service with a huge smile. We booked transfers to various attractions and airport transfers. The company used by the hotel made us feel safe and the drivers very friendly. The hotel is right on the beach, with a beautiful sandbank which you can walk to about 1 km out at low tide. If you are looking for a relaxed, low key stay. This boutique hotel and the Jambiani area is for you. I hope this little bit of paradise remains that way for many more years to come."

"Relaxed beyond words during our stay @ Blue Reef. This place is a vibe…chill. Luxuries abound in our rooms (we stayed in the apartment). So much space for our family of 4 to really spread out and regroup after a week of safari in northern Tanzania. Snorkeling right from the hotel was perfect for the kids. The breakfasts were spot on for everyone in our group of picky eaters to find their favorites…GREAT COFFEE!!! The staff is laid back and welcoming while also taking care of business. We’ll be back!"
