Sea Cliff Resort and Spa Zanzibar

We stayed for a week as a couple with our 7 year old. Every day she stayed at the kids club, who took great care of her. They played tennis, lego, did drawings, made a handbag, jumped on a trampoline and played mini golf. They also have a PS5 that sometimes attracted older kids as well. A big thank you to Sakina and Mwanahora! The resort is a green paradise with several swimming pools, and offers many activities. We enjoyed mini golf, billiard, the gym, swimming and greeted the horses. April is rain season, and the weather is a bit unpredictable and ranges from full sun, cloudy to heavy rain in a couple of hours. That makes planning activities a bit difficult. On the plus side we preferred cloudy weather and the resort and excursions are not crowded. The resort has an activity centre that can arrange excursions for you. We went by boat to Prison Island to see the giant turtles and learn some history. The boat trip took 50 min each way and on the way back we could have a swim in the sea and they served some fruits. Our daughter enjoyed the day, and particularly to see the big turtles. We also took the free shuttle to Stone Town with its labyrinth streets and many markets. The shuttle took 50 min. At the shuttle meeting point in Stone Town, there are official guides (wearing a card) that can walk you around. Our guide was well worth, as he was both a good companion, sharing his knowledge and giving us helpful advice. He also called the shuttle driver so we could return an hour early. Our daughter enjoyed the day in Stone Town and particularly buying colourful dresses and necklaces and having a strawberry smoothie by the sea. You can also get henna painting and have your hair braided. All staff is very friendly and helpful to ensure that you have a wonderful stay. We recommend this hotel for families travelling with kids up to 10 years due to all the activities. The resort is also very compact, so we had to walk a lot less compared to all other resorts we have stayed at. As we had an evening flight, they let us stay in another room until our departure. Tip 1: Bring a lot of dollars to Zanzibar. Visa and taxi is paid cash, we paid 230$ for visa and taxi airport-resort-airport. You also need cash for excursions and tipping. If needed you can withdraw dollars at the reception or local currency in Stone Town. Tip 2: It is appreciated if you leave tips in the tip box on the reception counter. Tip 3: weather is a bit unpredictable in the rain season, but locals say it usually rains when the sea level is high and heavy rainfalls only last a short time.

Sea Cliff is an absolutely amazing resort! The staff was super friendly, cheerful, and accommodating!!! The environment was fantastic, with two lovely infinity pools, tennis, golf, padel, mini golf, and water sports available. The food was plentiful and varied! I can truly recommend Sea Cliff.

Rooms are not the best ones in the island, but the services are exceptional. Whether you go with family, friends or work. I go 3 to 4 times per year with different objectives: Tennis tournament, golf with friends, relaxing weekend with the kids... They have everything you need.

It's time to write a review of my stay at a great place in Zanzibar. This place is Sea Cliff Resort and Spa. I stayed there for two exclusive weeks in February / March. My admiration began with the reception, the staff immediately surrounded me with care and attention. Arrival was late (11 at night), but the staff found the strength and desire to put me in comfort and cook for me wonderful pizza , in the refrigerator, in the room I found fresh fruit. Everyone, exclusively all the staff were very friendly. It's like being in a loving family.Smiles and greetings, a sincere interest in your comfortable stay. I would like to express special admiration and gratitude to the restaurant. The quality and variety of cuisine pleased me every day. I liked the fact that the choice of food and treats was decent, wide enough but at the same time very high quality. Seafood - squid, fish and octopus, this is what I really love. Then two or three options of meat products every evening. A variety of vegetables, and the most delicious desserts in assortment. I would also like to note the outstanding work of the restaurant manager Nitish and head chef. They were both available every evening in the restaurant, you could always talk to them and discuss the menu, this suggests that they care about their business and carefully worry about the guests' tasty and comfortable meals . The entertainment program was amazing, you can’t rarely see this anywhere else. I want to name the stuff and special thanks to those who made my holiday unforgettable. I hope that the management will find a way to reward these workers! Grace -the restaurant waitress.👏 Mariam -Bar waitress🤗. Charles-the lifeguard/towels 🙌 Frank-the jette bar.👍 Amina massage.🪄
