An unforgettable stay – thanks to Mohamed Omar! Our family had a truly wonderful experience at Fruit & Spice Wellness Resort. The resort itself is stunning – surrounded by nature, beautifully maintained, peaceful, and full of charm. Everything from the villas to the food and the beach felt luxurious and thoughtfully designed. But what made our stay exceptional was our personal butler, Mohamed Omar. He is simply outstanding – professional, attentive, and incredibly kind. Mohamed took care of every detail with great efficiency and genuine warmth. He anticipated our needs before we even mentioned them, always with a smile and sincere care. His presence turned a great vacation into an extraordinary one. Mohamed represents the very best of hospitality – intelligent, proactive, respectful, and emotionally intuitive. We will always remember his kindness and the way he made us feel at home. We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a perfect combination of comfort, nature, and five-star service. And if you’re lucky enough to be assisted by Mohamed – your stay will be unforgettable— Ram Ben-Asher & Family

I spent my honeymoon at this hotel with my husband, we booked the Deluxe Room. Let's start with the positives: the hotel itself is actually very pretty with a nice pool. There are enough sunbeds located everywhere, you can rent out beach towels for free. The staff is very friendly, sometimes too friendly if you know what I mean (the constant "jambo jambo" and "hakuna matata" every 5 seconds was kinda irritating especially while we were eating). The room was big enough, with a nice shower with hot water at all times. We had a few power outages but only for a few minutes so it was ok. The internet is stable. We were visited by a cheeky monkey on our balcony many times, which was very cute. :) The food was tasty most of the time and we liked the special dinners on the beach / at the pool with live music twice a week. Now let's go to the negatives: the hotel beach really disappointed us. It was not "crystal-clear blue water" as advertised on their website, it was very dirty and the beach itself as well. We didn't go swimming there as we had planned because it wasn't inviting at all. What a shame. It wasn't how I imagined a beach in Zanzibar at all. I saw many much better ones in Europe for sure. Also, the lovely pier you can see in the pictures is non-existant. I was really looking forward to walking on it and taking some nice pictures at sunset but it just wasn't really there anymore. Not sure if they're ever gonna rebuild it. We wanted to rent out jetskis - they were under maintance. We wanted to use a jacuzzi in the spa - under maintanace. Quite disappointing for a 5* hotel to be honest. At first we didn't have a tv in our room - we asked for it - and then it turned out it didn't work. No working channels. I expected a Smart-TV in a 5* hotel to be quite frank. The staff was friendly but they liked to completely forget or mess up our orders quite often. Sometimes we had to ask three times for a glass of Coke. Sometimes it didn't come at all. Very annoying. Room service was quite bad, after two hours no reaction. They should definitely work on that. We had an impression that some of the staff don't really understand basic English at all. And like, they said they would come pick up our luggagge when we were about to check out and they never did. It wasn't a big problem to carry it ourselves, but my point is - if you say you're gonna do something - do it. We had a buffet breakfast and dinner - mostly very delicious, no complaints here. However, lunch was à la carte and the menu was very short, not too many choices and half of it was missing every day. You can't make such a short menu and then say that only 3 dishes are available. We booked the all inclusive option and half of the stuff was not all inclusive anyway, this was very annoying. Like, a beer was included but a glass of wine not. This coctail yes, the other one not. But maybe it's like that everywhere, I don't know. And then there little things, like they have the cheapest single layer toilet paper there, they take our dirty towels and sometimes give new ones after 6 hours or so; just very inefficient. OH, and don't use the laundry service - I paid 8 dollars for one item and they didnt even wash it properly, it still had stains. I washed it back home and it was no problem at all for my standard washing machine. Overall we had a nice holiday but there a few things they should definitely work on. 3/5.
