Most relaxing place I know on the planet. Locally built, owned an run lodge in a not very developed part of Zansibar. Not for people who wants parties and beach life, but if you're after beautifull surrondings, friendly environment and comfy, relaxing days this place is highly recommended. Food selection is a little limited, room standard is not european, and its about as remote as you get on Zansibar, but none of this matters to me.

We stayed one night at Salida Beach. It is located a bit outside of the centre of Kizimkazi. By scooter, it takes you around 5 minutes to get to the main road and the main beach. The room was perfect. Every room has a little balcony or a terrace. It was superclean, the waterpressure was strong, and there was even a mini-fridge in the room. The ventilator is very fast and in gerneall the room was very well temperatured, no AC necessary at all. The wifi was stable and fast. The place has a generator, so there are no problems with powercuts. The area of Salida Beach is quite big, with a lot of trees which keep the place cool. There are some sunbeds directly at the coastline on the small cliff over the water, where you can watch the sunset or just relax. There is also a hammock. There is no sand beach, but stairs lead you down to the ocean if you want to swim, which I highly recommend, especially if it is high tide. The breakfast is out of this world. Everyone gets a big plate of fruits, then the eggs as you want them with guacamole and bread and 2 pancakes. For drinks, they had coffee, tea, and a very very good juice. There is the opportunity to have dinner at Salida Beach as well, but we did not try that. The staff was super friendly, they welcomed us, showed us the place, and were helpful with all our questions. We will definitely come again😁

Location right on the beach, the staff were exceptionally kind and willing to help with anything. We celebrated my son’s birthday there and the staff went above and beyond to celebrate him and make him feel special.

Good food and nice staff 🫶🏽

Liked how peacefull it was ,Was definitely an eco friendly place. Activity offered was great such as Dolphins watching . Staff were brilliant and food was really nice

The bungalow i booked is beautiful, very spacious with interesting round layout, unique roof/ceiling. There is a small private deck outside surrounded with lots of greenery. Private bathroom. Bright and cozy interior. Very conveniently the kitchen is open all day long and the food is delicious. Hosts are super friendly. Restaurant, pool and chilling area is facing the ocean and the most amazing sunset/s. You can access the ocean going down the steps. Otherwise you can enjoy the amazing view onto the ocean and fishermen passing by on local sailing boats from above. Thats magical. Boat to Pungume ( Safari Blue) takes less time to reach sand bank so its a good spot to start the trip. Massage with Frida was a top notch. Thank you all for wonderful stay! We will be back.

Staff and quite for serenity and leisure

We loved the pool and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The property had a generator for lights and fans which if you have visited Zanzibar before is key because they have many power cuts.

Staying at this beachfront hotel in Zanzibar was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The location alone is stunning waking up to the sound of the ocean and stepping onto soft white sand felt like something out of a dream. What truly made the stay exceptional, though, was the food and the staff. The meals were consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. From local Zanzibari dishes rich in spices to international options, every meal felt thoughtfully prepared. The seafood, in particular, was outstanding clearly fresh from the ocean and cooked to perfection. Equally impressive was the staff. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever being intrusive. They went out of their way to make sure every detail was taken care of, always greeting us with smiles and making us feel completely at home. Their hospitality added a personal touch that elevated the entire experience. If you’re looking for a relaxing beach getaway with amazing food and truly caring service, this hotel is an excellent choice.

I had a really lovely stay at Palmera Zanzibar Eco Hotel! What stood out the most was the incredibly kind and attentive staff. Their warmth and hospitality truly made the experience special. It’s clear the hotel prioritizes service, and I really appreciate that they offer hospitality training programs, which is reflected in how well guests are cared for. One of the highlights was how helpful the team was in arranging a taxi for us to visit Paje for the day. Everything was easy and smooth. The low tide at Palmera was absolutely beautiful and made for a memorable experience. The overall vibe at Palmera is peaceful and welcoming, with a genuine eco-conscious spirit. I also really enjoyed the vegan food. It was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
