Beach Hotels in Africa

"Staff service was exceptional. Especially receptionist Imane. Location is very good, very central. Can walk to Menara mall and walk over to old town too. Across the road there is a taxi rank and horse carriages station. "

"A very special stay. As our first Riad experience we can hope but probably not experience such an authentic stay. What made it more special over and above the attentive service was the hamam, and the in incredibly vibey Bistro Aribe with its evening show. Dining here is a must for any stay"

"The staff at the hotel were just fantastic people and very patient. The rooms were very clean plus the housekeeping staff do not hesitate to help when asked. The guest services team at the restaurant are just fabulous. Making my 18 year old daughter's birthday a very special day to remember. Thank you all at Sarova Panafric. "

"The hotel was great. Very nice swimming pools, clean room, and close to shopping. I enjoyed staying there. Also the food was excellent. "

"Stay was beautiful and the staff were amazing. The breakfast was good as well as the club lounge. Just that the first room we were given had squeaky floors but we swere quickly given another room"

"All great only the pool service could be faster. Restaurant great food, service the same menu all 5 days. Front desk great. Don’t book anything prior they can organize it all. "

"Overall, a very nice stay. It is conveniently located in Stone Town and for catching day trips out to Prison Island. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Food and bar options plentiful. The rooftop restaurant, bar, and pool area is quite nice. "

"Amazing, beautiful, welcoming staff! Cannot recommend enough. Perfect because it was right inside the Medina, but not really in it."

"My recent stay at Hivernage Hotel and Spa was overall pleasant, thanks to the incredible staff and their dedication to guest satisfaction. The hotel staff went above and beyond, and the service in the restaurant was particularly exemplary. Imad, one of the servers, handled a minor issue with professionalism and kindness when I found a hair in my food. While this was disappointing, he made every effort to make up for it, which I truly appreciated. Karima at the front desk was outstanding—she went above and beyond to accommodate my requests, making my stay much more enjoyable. Fadua (from client relations, I believe—apologies if the spelling is incorrect) was also incredibly kind and attentive. While the staff was exceptional, there are a few areas for improvement. The beds and pillows are much too hard, which affected my sleep quality. Additionally, the windows on the Nobu side of the hotel need better soundproofing, as outside noise was quite disruptive at times. If you’re planning a stay, I’d recommend requesting a room on the Sofitel side for a quieter experience. Thank you again to the wonderful staff for their warmth and professionalism—it made a significant difference during my stay. With a few adjustments, this hotel has the potential to offer an even better guest experience."
