Excellent hospitality and relaxing private sea areas as well as good foods including buffets for breakfast and dinner. The room well designed and clean. Jetty restaurant was also very nice to see the Indian Ocean. Definitely recommended.

Honestly, leaving this place was the hardest part. If I had my way, I’d have stayed for months. ESSQUE ZALU wasn’t just a hotel—it was an experience, a paradise, a place where every moment felt like a dream. This has undoubtedly been one of my best vacations so far, and I owe a huge part of that to the amazing team at ESSQUE ZALU. If you’re looking for a place to unwind, be pampered, and experience pure luxury in Zanzibar, ESSQUE ZALU is the place to be. I highly recommend it.👌💖

Our family trip to Essque Zalu was absolutely amazing! The stunning views, especially the saltwater pool overlooking the sea, made our stay unforgettable. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, adding to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The rooms were well-kept, though a touch of modernization—while preserving their authentic charm—would enhance the experience. The food quality was great, and we truly enjoyed every meal. We will definitely recommend your hotel to our family and friends and can’t wait to return for another stay!

Tuvimos una estancia increíble en Essque Zalu. Desde la cálida bienvenida a nuestra llegada hasta las habitaciones amplias e impecables, todo superó nuestras expectativas. La vista era absolutamente impresionante y la comida de primera categoría. Aunque no tuvimos la oportunidad de probar el buffet de la cena, el menú a la carta que disfrutamos fue fantástico. El personal fue amable, atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Definitivamente, estamos deseando volver y seguir explorando más en el futuro.
