Certainly! Here's an exceptional review for Sea Cliff **A Slice of Paradise at Sea Cliff Resort** I recently had the privilege of staying at Sea Cliff Resort in Zanzibar, and it was an unforgettable experience that truly exceeded all my expectations. Nestled along the breathtaking coastline, this resort is a paradise that offers the perfect blend of luxury, relaxation, and adventure. **The Setting:** The moment I arrived, I was captivated by the stunning location. Perched on a cliff overlooking the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, the resort offers panoramic views that are simply breathtaking. The lush gardens, swaying palm trees, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore create an idyllic atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. **The Rooms:** My room was an oasis of comfort and elegance. Spacious, beautifully decorated, and meticulously clean, it was the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The private balcony offered stunning ocean views, and I loved waking up to the sight of the sun rising over the water. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the amenities provided added a touch of luxury to my stay. **Dining:** The dining experience at Sea Cliff Resort is nothing short of extraordinary. The variety of restaurants on-site offered delicious options that catered to every palate. From fresh seafood to local Zanzibari delicacies, each meal was a culinary delight. The breakfast buffet was particularly impressive, with an extensive selection of fresh fruits, pastries, and hot dishes. Dining with a view of the ocean made each meal even more special. **Activities and Amenities:** Sea Cliff Resort offers a wide range of activities to suit all interests. The infinity pool overlooking the ocean was a highlight, providing a perfect spot to relax and soak up the sun. For those seeking adventure, the resort offers water sports, golf, and excursions to nearby attractions. I also enjoyed a rejuvenating massage at the on-site spa, which was a serene experience that left me feeling completely relaxed. **Service:** The service at Sea Cliff Resort is exceptional. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and attended to my every need with genuine warmth and professionalism. Whether it was arranging excursions, providing dining recommendations, or simply ensuring that I was comfortable, the team went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. **Location:** The location of Sea Cliff Resort is perfect for those looking to explore the beauty of Zanzibar. It’s close enough to Stone Town for a day trip but far enough to offer a peaceful retreat. The resort’s private beach is pristine, offering a secluded spot to enjoy the sun and sea in tranquility. **Overall Experience:** My stay at Sea Cliff Resort was nothing short of magical. It’s a place where every detail is thoughtfully designed to provide guests with an exceptional experience. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or simply a place to unwind, Sea Cliff Resort is the perfect choice. I can’t wait to return to this paradise in Zanzibar and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a luxurious and unforgettable escape.

We were warmly greeted by the staff at the entrance. I had booked a deluxe room and had arrived early, would have appreciated an early checkin but the room wasn’t ready so meanwhile I explored the resort amenities. It has a private beach with a mini golf area and a bar alongside. The staff is friendly but most of the staff is new, a bit slow but they get you what you need. Maybe that’s how they’re wired, I’m unsure but they were kind. Pictures don’t do enough justice to this property. It’s massive, beautiful interiors with high end quality products. Loved the spa, felt so rejuvenated and I loved their bathing product line, the shower gels, etc. It’s ace quality. Food was good. They had live performance that got everyone on flood. It’s one of the best properties I’ve stayed at.

The room is not as big as expected, but relatively compact! In addition to normal taxes, there are some other hidden taxes!

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.

Honestly the hospitality here is phenomenal! I would come back here over and over again. The staff are so friendly and the activities, food, scenery, weather, beach and facilities are TOP CLASS! They interacted at every opportunity with my wife and 3 year old child to make them smile with the typical Tanzanian charm. Thanks you very much!

This was such a great experience. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Plenty of things to do on the resort such as riding the horses, canoeing, tennis, and mini golf. Massages were at a decent price and very good. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
