It was honestly one of the best experiences I’ve had in all my travels around Zanzibar. The service was absolutely perfect. Every staff member was friendly, helpful, and always ready to make sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere makes you feel at home the moment you arrive. The food and drinks were a huge highlight. I’ve tried many places around Zanzibar and the meals here were truly some of the best I’ve ever had. Fresh, full of flavor, and prepared with so much care. The bar also serves amazing drinks, from fresh juices to cocktails, everything was top-notch. The property is big and full of things to do. There is a volleyball court where people gather every day, a super cozy fire pit area where you can relax at night under the stars, and lots of games and activities that make the social vibe unbeatable. It’s the kind of place where you can meet new people, relax, or stay active, all in one spot. Another huge advantage is the location. The hostel is only a five minute walk from the beach, which makes it very convenient whether you want to swim, explore, or just enjoy the ocean. Overall, this hostel combines comfort, community and great energy perfectly. If you’re coming to Zanzibar, don’t think twice, stay here. You won’t regret it.

The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a concierge service and free WiFi throughout the property. Stone Town House exceeded my expectations. I booked a bed in a four bedded dorm and I was taken aback at the spaciousness of the room which was air-conditioned and had 2 fans. The beds were tidied up daily by the housekeeping staff. The shared baths and toilets were spotlessly clean. The additional bonus was having a tea and coffee trolley outside the room. Aishah who works there as a receptionist is a gem of a person... helpful, kind and soft spoken. The other staff there are equally very polite.
