Quiet location with wonderful and spacious rooms overlooking the pool and sea with a bar on the side. Mark/Max is a wonderful person who looked after our needs from the time of checkin to checkout and it was totally hassle free.

The shower in the bathroom was old and not working properly and once reported to them they immediately sent someone to repair but it should have been replaced.

The place was very nice in a serene environment. Staff were friendly. Was cosy, and the food was nice. The manager went out of her way to decirate our apartment for my husbands birthday. Thank you, Leah, and thank you, Calamari. I would surely recommend friends over 😊

The road going to the villas needs a lot of attention as it doesn't really portray a good picture of what's ahead. Once someone books, all costs should be mentioned to clients.

We were a group of 6 travelling from various countries. When we arrived, we were met personally by the villa Manager, Sergei, who had been a great help and friend throughout our stay. Everything we needed was provided for to ensure our comfort. The breakfast was good, with some variation. Additionally, the hygiene was unmatched and very pleasant. Our WiFi connection was consistent and we had Netflix and Youtube in each apartment for the days we just wanted to lounge. The area is very tranquil and peaceful, a true getaway in the middle of nature. We were also fortunate to have the pool to ourselves overlooking the sea, which added to the peaceful and calm atmosphere. Our experience was beyond our expectations and the staff were amazing. It's not easy hosting a number of people with different preferences but they handled it with grace!

There is nothing I can say I did not like. We had a truly pleasant stay. However, it is a distance from the city and some activities other than Safari Blue, but the tranquility is definitely worth it if that is your preference.

The staff are so kind and super friendly. The food was one of the best highlight of our trip here in Zanzibar. The view was super fantastic. Leah and other receptionist were super helpful to us in many ways. They helped me with payment methods even outside of the resort. It was the best experience that i wish to live for again. Highly recommend staying here during trip to Zanzibar.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The location is also perfect very calm, the resort is very clean and it has a nice pool area and a very nice sea view. And the food is also delicious. The resort does offer transport services too which was very handy for moving around without any stress.

I personally think that the resort could use so entertainment from time to time.

the staff was so kind and very responsive. Leah is the best. the facilities were cleaned daily and we were able to get transport to and from wherever we wanted to go. We also got recommendations of things to do from Ali who was also wonderful. Really great staff!!!!!

the wifi truly sucks, only works in certain areas of the house like the living room, so I felt like that could be improved

It's a hidden gem! The drive towards the property doesnt give the best impression but when you arrive at Calamari villas you will be delighted. It has a very calming, serene vibe. The staff are great and very helpful, we were travelling with a toddler and the staff were great with her. The apartment was well laid out, modern and clean. The view was exceptional and the pool was great.

As we had a toddler it would have been useful to have a microwave in the room or some pots for heating her food and milk although the staff were veru happy to warm the milk for us in the main kitchen. The taps in our bathrooms were both ready for an upgrade as water came out too powerfully.

A beautiful and serene place to stay with a fantastic view of the pools, sea and the very well maintained garden. A little hidden bijoux in Fumba town (Bweleo).

Just the fact we had to leave Calamari Beach Villas.
