We stayed for 3 nights (part of our honeymoon) and we couldn’t be happier with this decision! The hotel itself is amazing but the staff is next level. Our private butler Simon was literally the best.

A little piece of Paradise, some way from Stone Town, but so worth it. Fabulous jungle location with a stunning beach. Meals can be eaten wherever you want (and are lovely!). Huge beautiful rooms/villas, everything very very private, and the personal butler is just a dream, I wanted to take ours home!
Pre-payment was a bit of a kerfuffle, but i'm really looking for something to write here...
-Breathtaking location and unique Villas. -Mike, Michelle, and our driver Abu Bakar were amazingly kind. The manager was also kind enough to give us a tour of the property. -The beach felt private -The food was great -We had fun playing with the resort cats and baby goats.
-The bed headboard has a big hole in its design that unfortunately lets your pillow slip while you are sleeping. -The transportation prices are high.
I dont' want to sound like one of those who say "We stay in the best places", but we do stay in some amazing properties, and Xanadu, might have just topped every other place and spoilt every future holiday! We aren't sure how we will top this! We were welcomed by huge smiles and the team made us feel at home within seconds guiding us to our villa. We stayed in Villa Nyota it is unbelievable, it's ...

We stayed at Xanadu as part of our honeymoon trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar. It was certainly our most luxurious accommodation, no detail is left out. Ismael who looked after us during our stay couldn’t do enough for us and really made us feel at home during our stay. The food was also incredible, definitely a highlight of our stay
Amazing staff, Toby, Michelle, and Ali, our butler, were absolutely amazing and thoughtful

Our stay at Xanadu completely exceeded all expectations. From the moment we got there we relaxed thanks to the fantastic guest relations staff who greeted us. Xanadu is beyond peaceful, it's architecture and setting make you feel like you're the only people there. The service we received from our personal butler, the food we ate, the rest we had was more than we could have ever asked for.

The customer service, hospitality, cleanliness, ambience, and tranquility from before, during and after our trip was first class service. Xanadu goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is perfect!! Not once were we bombarded with bills. We accorded the respect and treated like royalty!!! Best vacation and highly recommendable - definitely a value for money!!!
nothing!!! everything was perfect
The villa was beautiful, stylish and comfortable. Our butler Rashid was exceptional, he was extremely courteous and efficient without being too intrusive. He was very good at listening to our requests,remembering and responding.
The only thing we did not like about the villa was the shower arrangement. It was not possible to shower without wetting hair, the spray diameter was wide and so did not provide a good central pressure but also, because of this, it caused considerable areas of the floor to get very wet which then became very slippy, especially if wearing the slippers provided.
hidden gem, perfect to relax, incredible service, beautiful villas, probably the most luxurious experience in Zanzibar. The food is unbelievable, approaching michelin star quality
the beach isn’t really nice, so you spend most of the time at your villa or go for a tour. it’s perfect if you like relaxing, otherwise you can get bored after some nights
