Breezes is exceptional value for money. It may be a large hotel, but it delivers a trusty and excellent product.
It is our favourite in the ‘large hotel’ category and perfect for families and honeymooners alike.
Having been running for longer than most of the other properties on the island, you can expect the years of experience to shine through.
The facilities are excellent, and the lovely, long, pristine beach makes its size all worthwhile.
If you are looking for something smaller with a good beach and facilities, consider Ras Nungwi on the north of the island. We also love Breezes.
Breezes Beach Club
Breezes is located on the southeast side of the island, on arguably the best stretch of beach.
Although it’s tidal, the fine white sand epitomises Zanzibar. Breezes has two sister hotels next door: Palms, with only six rooms, and Baraza, with 30 rooms.
The main area is vast, comprising a single large restaurant that primarily serves a buffet.
There is also an inside main bar where a band sometimes plays (or a lone trumpeter).
There are two other restaurants that you must book and pay extra for. The central area features an enormous pool and a daytime bar, where you can also order lunch.
Between here and the main beach are sun loungers covered with small thatch roofs.
There are three different room categories: standard rooms, suites and deluxe suites.
All categories are great value for money, differing in location and size. None of the rooms is seafront, and they are all in small blocks of about 8 rooms.
They have all the mod cons, including air conditioning, lovely bathrooms, and balconies.
