Sultan Sands Island Resort

From the moment we stepped into Sultan Sands, I felt like I’d found a little piece of paradise. This wasn’t just a hotel—it was a beautiful escape with stunning views that melted my stress away. The hotel is perfectly nestled against an amazing beach, and the ocean views were breathtaking—changing every hour of the day. Don’t forget to swim in the morning when the water is high! I didn’t even want to sleep; I just wanted to soak in every moment, from the incredible sunrise to the late night. Normally, I’d search for trips outside the hotel, but there was always something to do right there (trips are still highly recommended). Hotel offered painting sessions (I brought home my own piece of art!), cooking classes, a coconut show, a visit to a local village, volleyball, and evening shows or concerts. Gerthrud and Isaac’s invitations were hard to resist—I wanted to try everything! Check the calendar so you don’t miss anything that interests you. Our bungalow was perfect—clean, tidy, and just right for three friends. The food was great, with a different variety and theme every day. As a salad and fruit lover, I was in heaven, and the local specialties were amazing. Everything was made with care, making each meal a delight. But what made Sultan Sands unforgettable was the staff. I’d love to name everyone, but the list would be too long! They were helpful, smiling, kind, and caring—everyone made us feel so welcome. Their warmth turned a great stay into something truly magical. (Warmest greetings from colder Poland to all the amazing staff!) If you’re planning a trip to Zanzibar, Sultan Sands is the place to go—it’s beautiful, fun, and feels like home. I left refreshed, happy, and already dreaming of returning.

Excellent services satisfied with costumer services looking forward to visit again. Happy with the smile from the gate warm welcome in the reception elegant and natural light just make the place looks owesome. Response from services providers is commendable

Sultan Sands Resort is truly one of a kind. The quality of the service, accommodation and facilities are exceptional. The crew is so friendly and welcoming that you immediately feel at home. Delicious food with lots of fresh seafood and veggies. I usually would not stay in one place for a long time but here I did not mind at all. The rooms feel very secluded and private, and are beautifully designed. The management and staff service is remarkable. They go above and beyond to make sure you will truly enjoy your stay. Highly recommend and will definitely come back. From the resort you can easily to day trips to explore the rest of the island.
