Tikitam Palms Boutique Hotel

We booked with high expectations, but were very disappointed with the food quality as well as the staff’s attitude and poor service standards.

The staff, people are more than excellent there!

Le personnel était très gentille, ils ont eu une attention particulière pour mon anniversaire qu'il ont rendu exceptionnel

The extremely friendly and attentive staff, the wonderful Sultan Villa, the fresh and excellent food, the beautiful park, the pool area… simply everything!

Todo, las vistas de la habitación, la zona de playa, el color del mar, la comida, el personal encantador…

This was the nicest venue I stayed in during my time in Zanzibar. The team are always looking after you and ensuring you are comfortable. The beach/pool area is so relaxing and beautiful. As a solo female traveller I was worried I wouldn’t feel relaxed, but honestly this resort is just perfect! Huge shout out to Jumani - a true gentleman
The resident cats for me were fantastic, so friendly and desperate for attention and soooo cute!
Really great value for money and I’ve already booked to come back in December!
I would recommend doing the reef walking one afternoon with Juma. He knows all the spots to find starfish and makes you laugh every step of the way!

Das äusserst freundliche und zuvorkommende Personal, die wunderbare Sultan-Villa, das Frische und hervorragende Essen, der wunderschöne Park, der Poolbereich… einfach alles!

Superbe établissement très confortable

Super schön! Toller Garten und schöner Pool. Direkt am Meer, in das man über einen Steg gelangt. Einen richtigen Sandstrand gibt es nicht, aber den habe ich persönlich auch nicht vermisst.
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Erkundige sich ständig ob man was braucht und ob alles ok ist. Das Hotel hat auch nur 8 Zimmer und maximal 16 Gäste. Gibt also immer eine Liege.
Das Essen war auch sehr gut!
Wirklich eines der schönsten Hotels in dem ich je war. Auch die Massagen waren top.

Outstanding place to stay! Very quiet and relaxed. Staff was wonderful.

Fantastic place. Friendly staff, great flavors, and service. We enjoyed everything, especially that there was no crowd:) The maximum number of guests is 18. The garden with the monkeys and other animals is paradise. The monkeys are not aggressive, like in Kenya. They don't steal:) The beach when we were there was unfortunately full of seaweed, but I think it was because of the time of year (March)

The staff here are absolutely wonderful, the service is fantastic, the room was perfect and my stay was relaxing!
This is the place to stay if you just want 100% downtime and quiet. I had planned a very ambitious and busy stay in Stone Town following my stay here, so I wanted this portion of my trip to be relaxed. I couldn't have chosen a better place for peace and quiet. The premises is really pretty and I walked around a lot, seeing Red Colobus and Blue Sykes Monkeys and petting the various cats. In the evening, the air smells incredible . There isn't much of an ocean beach area, but there is a long floating pier that is nice to walk out on and the pool is kept beautifully. This is a small boutique hotel and there were only 4 other people there when I stayed, which contributed to the quiet. I did not take advantage of the spa services while I was there and can't review it.

What a magical place to stay. The rooms are big, clean and tastefully decorated. The surroundings are so peaceful, full of greenery, its as if you're in the jungle. We saw the red colobus monkeys, blue monkeys, and even a bush baby at night time just all in the hotel grounds! There are not many rooms there so it feels ever so personal and the staff treat you like family. We loved the tranquility of the place, no screaming children in sight, and you can just relax. There are beautiful views of the sea, yes the beach is rocky but you can swim at high tide. Food was excellent, compliments to the chef and all the kitchen staff. Service has been excellent all round and the staff can't do enough to help and make you feel welcome. My only suggestion would be that I would hope the hotel would offer more eco-conscious tours, I think the sort of guests that would stay in this sort of hotel would appreciate this more. We went on one tour from the hotel to Mnemba island and it was so overcrowded and over-toured it really wasn't a great experience. They are many other independent eco-conscious tours such as to Chumbe Island and to Tumbatu Island where we were the only boat there snorkelling. Other than that, Zanzibar is beautiful and what better way to experience this than staying at this special hotel. Thank you to all the staff.

Magnifique hôtel intimiste : 4 chambres et 4 villas. Très beau site avec des très beaux jardins.
Mention spécial pour la villa plage spacieuse et lumineuse. Avec une vue magnifique et une très belle décoration et un niveau d'équipement haut de gamme. Petites attentions comme la mise à disposition dans la villa d'un tapis de yoga.(génial pour des séances quotidiennes face à la mer !)
Très bonne literie et très bonne douche avec une bonne pression d'eau.
Cuisine excellente avec un super chef passionné et très gentil.
Personnel aux petits soins et adorable.
Massages excellents avec un très bon rapport qualité prix.
L'ensemble des extras est d'ailleurs d'un très bon rapport qualité prix.
il n'y a pas de plage a proprement parler (rochers) mais cela n'empêche pas la baignade à marée haute et c'est ainsi dans ce coin de l'ile. l'hotel met à disposition des chaussures de plage bienvenues pour marcher sur le reef
nous avons apprécié aussi les petites activités proposées (balades sur le reef, tressage de feuilles de palmier) et globalement les équipements mis à disposition (jeux de carte/dominos, badmington, paddle, masques etc...)

The location, service, staff and food were all excellent. I couldn’t fault anything. The staff were very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us.

The best hotel I've ever been to! Amazing staff - not intrusive but very helpful. Diverse, delicious food. Beautiful, spacious room. Unbelievable garden with monkeys and bushbabies. Spa with a wide range of massages. Last but definitely not least, lots of cuddly cats :)
I recommend this hotel to everyone who looks for some peace

Le calme et l’accueil

Superb! This has by far been the most luxurious and calm hotel stay my husband and I have ever experienced. If you are lucky enough to find an available room/villa here - book!!

The area and gardens are so beautiful and well kept. The staff is amazing, so calm, personable, happy and polite. The food is amazing with a new theme every night. The rooms and villa (we got to see both) are stunning. The spa treatments are great. Each time we had a question, the whole staff, and when applicable even the manager, were so engaged in helping us.

We thought that we during our stay in Zanzibar would want to visit different beaches, but we decided to stay in the hotel and the beach here every day since it was so perfect. Paradise! We did not want to check out.
