Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa

We recently spent a few nights at Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa for a girls’ getaway, and honestly, we’re still buzzing from the experience. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome — the staff were incredibly warm and genuinely seemed happy to have us there. What really stood out was how personal everything felt. Every morning at breakfast and again in the evening at dinner, someone would check in on us — not in a forced way, but with real warmth and friendliness. Every “jambo” from the team came with a smile, and we noticed how they took the time to learn our names and make each of us feel seen. The food was another highlight — there was something new to look forward to every evening thanks to themed dinners and entertainment. The variety was great, and the quality exceeded our expectations. We especially enjoyed how lively the evenings felt, without being too over-the-top — just the right vibe for a group holiday. Our rooms were always clean and comfortable, with daily housekeeping that didn’t miss a beat. We also found the all-inclusive option to be great value — it really allowed us to relax and enjoy everything without constantly thinking about costs. We also loved that there were optional activities on offer. It felt like the right balance — enough to keep us engaged without overwhelming our schedule. One lovely surprise was seeing a local artist painting as we walked to dinner. We later found out he offers painting classes — it would’ve been amazing to do a beachside sip-and-paint session! That’s definitely something we’d pay extra for and would love to see more clearly advertised in future. Huge thanks to Isaa, Richard, and Enoch — they really made our stay extra special. They were so kind, fun, and professional, and they added so much positive energy to our time there. The only small suggestion we have: we absolutely loved the Jerusalema dance performance one evening and thought a daytime African dance class would be a great addition for guests who want to try something active and cultural. We would’ve been first in line! We made so many special memories and are already talking about coming back.

From the initial welcome to the last goodbye we have experienced really amazing customer service. A beautiful team always on hand to help you have a great day. Great facilities also and a lovely beach with warmish waters - would certainly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The room was great, the food was delicious and we had good conversation and a lot of fun with the animation team Isaah and Shaaban, who played ping pong and volleyball with us and taught us the game bao. Thanks do all who created a great experience for us! :)

I called Gold To See if i and my fiancee who we just got engaged can book a table for dinner. I got Connected to Mr Anthony who is the head of food and beverage.

Everything from the moment we step in. The Care, the ambiance, the service. We are so Thankful Gold gave us this experience it was everything we needed and we have decided we will have our wedding there..... Thank You Gold and Mr Anthony
