Jambiani Holidays from AU$3,447

After reading so many excellent reviews we had high expectations for this hotel unfortunately for us it didn't quite reach the mark. Pro's - smooth & quick check-in (after a pre-check in via email) - App is helpful to see what's happening/bookings etc - Hotel grounds/ facilities well maintained & clean - friendly Staff - Clean & tidy room - beautiful setting - Taste of Asia recommended for lunch - Excursions are worth booking available through hotel (we did Jozani Forest/Stone Town) We also did Cheetahs Rock (booked directly with facility for this one) highly recommended con's - Restaurant food for lunch/dinner is very similar and can get boring - Bookable restaurants not always available (book in advance) - We found the lunch food on offer far better than dinner - no bar snacks when having a drink - nuts/crisp etc - this would have been a nice touch - Turn downs were hit and miss - sometimes it happened others not - not what we expected for a premium room - especially when there was limited water to drink in the room when the turn down was missed - sometimes really early as well 5pm -lots of extra charges - all inclusive isn't all inclusive (some cocktails /drinks are extra along with 1 of the restaurants) Overall we enjoyed our stay but didn't feel like it was 5-star.

The Mora was the best hotel I have ever been to. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was super clean. They cater to your every needs. I felt super safe! Security is everywhere to ensure your safety. I will be back.

The beds & pillows were terrible. 2 single beds stuck to each other which shake as you move. No grip whatsoever on the floor.. pillows were hard as rock too. Hotel service & meals were fantastic. Beach was amazing as well.

It is a great resort but there are several things which you should consider: 1. Dining - being a vegetarian, I found the options were limited. The chef tried hard to create some additional options but it did not change much. There are not many good restaurants nearby so you are out of options. 2. They are experimenting with pricing - food prices can change from day to day. Pizza was $7 one day and $15 next day 3. The food is expensive. 4. There are a lot of stairs which cant be avoided - no lifts. If any one has mobility issues, consider that you will have to go down or up at least 50 stairs from the entrance to your room 5. Service is good but inconsistent. You may see inconsistent housekeeping 6. They are not very transparent with pricing. Buffet dinner was supposed to be $35 but at checkout it was charged in local currency eq of $40. The bill was in local currency and converted back to USD which cost us even more. 7. Infinity pool closes at 6. Spa closes at 6 or earlier. The beach is gorgeous. The resort is clean and everyone is polite, helpful and nice. Spa is pricy but good.

Beautiful hotel . You didn’t feel as if you were in Africa !! Felt like a Caribbean country
