This is my second time staying at Meliá, and it won’t be my last. It’s not only because the hotel and grounds are beautiful. It’s the staff, they are exceptional, they’re the most friendly, smiley, professional and provide amazing service. Every room is cleaned twice a day and I’ve left valuables lying around and everything has always been safe.
My only complaint this time was that there was no working light in the shower but other than that everything was 10/10.

The hotel was nice although the food quality did not meet a 5 star standard. The food at the buffet and pool bar were very low quality and I was indeed surprised by the small variety of options. The rooms were nice and spacious.

We had our honeymoon at Meliá Zanzibar and had the best time. What we thought that really made the hotel exceptional was the service, staff, amenities (pools, beach), food and the grounds were all fantastic. We were made to feel very much at home. The staff were all friendly, attentive, and welcoming. They really made our stay very special. We have nothing but fantastic memories of Melia Zanzibar.

Beautiful hotel
The property is beautiful and spacious. Unfortunately, our shower never heated properly despite multiple requests to the front desk. Maintenance came several times to address the water heater, but it wasn’t fully resolved until our last day, which was the fourth day of our stay.

Beautiful property! We really enjoyed our stay. We were in a bungalow that was at the complete opposite end of the beach which at first seemed like it would be too far away but actually didn’t end up being a problem. Super easy to get around the resort by golf carts and the staff was all so friendly and helpful.

Excellent stay. Staff was wonderful. The food was excellent. The property was clean. My husband and I stayed 10 days. We upgraded to the Level it was a good deal. Better food options, beach access, it was well worth it. BTW to enter Zanzabar you must have a Visa if you are from the USA . Overall the stay was wonderful.
