My wife and I stayed at Next Paradise for three nights this past week. It was one of the better holiday experiences I have had. Because it was off-season, I think, the beaches were quite empty and so felt even more restful. The white sands are pristine. The service at Next Paradise is top class: thoughtful, warm, calm, you feel... More

Firstly I should apologise to Stuart and Marina for not submitting this review sooner, having stayed for a week as part of our honeymoon in July 2011. We stayed in the honeymoon suite which we thought very reasonably priced for a large room with balcony from which you could walk straight onto the idyllic beach. It was appointed to a... More

We spent 4 days here and didn't feel like moving much from the beautiful surroundings. Swam in the sea at high tide and cycled along the beach when the tide was out. Dinner was good - four courses with fresh seafood - and the staff excellent. Perfect for lazing around.

The beaches were covered in seaweed and there is only a local village nearby. We found ourselves regularly catching a $25 taxi to the northwest of... More

This hotel has just one word to describe it: perfect! The decoration is worth appearing in these magazines of great hotels. Typical swahili furniture combining the white with the sand and the brown of the palm trees, the hotel harmonizes perfectly with nature and the surroundings. I loved the attitude of the host. Each night there is a small band... More

The food was amazing, the rooms large, comfortable, and decorated very tastefully with really comfortable huge bed. The attention to detail was really amazing and the location was stunning. So the beach, food, staff, hotel were all superb. For anyone looking for a beach holiday that is a bit more personal and very Zanzibari, this is the perfect spot. Would... More

We stayed here for 9 days after our safari, and had booked this hotel based on the good reviews. We had a delightful stay. The hotel area is stunningly beautiful and the staff exceptional attentive and friendly. The food is very good, fresh sea food every day. We really liked the arrangement with the menu being written on a board... More

A truly wonderful find!! Am very happy we chose this place over anywhere else on the island for a special 4 day break with my 2 best friends. It is tasteful, well-run and beautifully located. The food was excellent and the service great. Relative to some of the other larger hotels on the island that cater to a different type... More
