Entspannt, grossartig einfach wundervoll

Die Unterkunft liegt nur 150 m vom Strand sehr idyllisch und nah am Zentrum, Restaurants und Shops in der Nähe. Das war super. Die Massage im Hotel war grandios.
Sauber, alle sehr freundlich und sehr familiäre Atmosphäre.

Fantastisch!
Pros:

Ontzettend vriendelijk personeel, fijne faciliteiten zoals een beach volleybalveld (en bal), zwembad, en een spa. Heerlijke massage bij Minnie gehad! Ontbijt was goed, mis je iets dan kun je de medeweten altijd vragen wat er mogelijk is. Elke avond werd de kamer gesprayd met anti muggen spray. De locatie is top, vlakbij het strand en met een supermarktje op nog geen 20 meter afstand. Verder biedt het een fijn restaurant voor lunch of diner.

Cons:

De wifi op de kamer werkte matig maar dat is eigenlijk overal in Tanzania waar wij zijn geweest zo.

Impressive
Pros:

An Exceptional Stay at Paje by Night – A True Gem in Zanzibar.
I had a wonderful stay at Paje by Night, and honestly, it was one of those places that makes leaving Zanzibar a little bit harder.
From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed. The entire property has a beautiful, relaxed and authentic Zanzibar atmosphere. It is surrounded by lush tropical greenery, beautifully maintained, peaceful, and at the same time perfectly located within walking distance of Paje Beach and the lively part of Paje. It offers that rare balance between feeling connected to the local atmosphere and having a peaceful place to retreat to.
The room and accommodation were excellent. My room was comfortable, clean and well maintained, and I particularly appreciated the attention to detail. Everything felt thoughtfully arranged rather than overly commercial or impersonal. The whole property has a warm, intimate character that makes you feel like you are staying somewhere with a soul, rather than simply checking into another hotel.
But what truly impressed me was the food.
The quality of the food was genuinely outstanding. I was especially impressed by the breakfast. It was not the typical basic hotel breakfast at all. There was a wonderful variety, everything was fresh, beautifully presented and prepared with great care. There were different options to suit different tastes, fresh fruits and juices, eggs, healthy choices and delicious dishes that made breakfast something to actually look forward to every morning.
I have stayed in many hotels where breakfast is simply something you have because it is included. Here, breakfast was part of the experience. The quality, freshness, presentation and variety were all at a surprisingly high level.
The restaurant was equally impressive. The menu offered a lovely range of choices, from Italian dishes and pizza to local Swahili-inspired food and seafood. Everything I tried was beautifully prepared and full of flavour.

Da evitare
Pros:

Il chioschetto di Winnie per il pranzo, appena esci sulla destra. La nuova stanza spaziosa.

Cons:

La poca chiarezza e poca professionalità dello staff, la poca pulizia del ristorante (piatti, tazze per il caffè, posate). La stanza (che ci è stata cambiata) che non rispecchiava le foto su booking, nonostante il prezzo medio/alto. Un' ora e mezza di attesa al ristorante per un piatto di pesce con un po' di riso.

Hôtel agréable et tout près de la plage
Pros:

Tout près de la belle plage de Paje, idéale pour le Kite surf. Mais pas sur la plage et aucune vue mer. Les bungalow sont mignons et spacieux, le jardin et la piscine très agréable. Le restaurant est bon et le personnel très sympa.

Cons:

Il y a des odeurs désagréables de fosse septique et pas mal de bruit la nuit car le petit marché de la ville donne sur l arrière de l hôtel. Prévoir les boule quies pour dormir !
Je déconseille le club de Kite avec lequel l hôtel a des tarifs préférentiels : ils ne sont pas sérieux et les instructeurs sont peu qualifiés. Il y a d autres écoles plus qualifiées sur la plage.

Soggiorno a Paje
Pros:

Il villaggio è piccolo e raccolto, immerso nel verde. Offre molto silenzio e privacy. Il personale è veramente gentilissimo e pronto ad aiutare in ogni momento. Molto bella la zona della piscina circondata da palme stupende e tanti alberi dove si vedono animali graziosissimi come deliziosi uccellini gialli e famiglie di scimmiette. A noi è piaciuta moltissimo la colazione e la cucina a cena: davvero tutto buonissimo ed abbondante. Non dimenticheremo questa vacanza. Posizione a pochi passi dal mare e dal centro di Paje.

Cons:

La stabilità dei sanitari che sono davvero bellissimi.

Heart of Paje
Pros:

Paje by Night is in an excellent location, a short walk to the beach. Has an amazing 24 hour supermarket nearby. Very central to a lot of the good spots in Paje. The food is great - their pizza is great, but all their food in general was really great.

Cons:

A little better organisation with the booking process. I had to switch rooms on night 2. Internet a little iffy especially if you needing to do a little more than simple browsing.

Gutes Hotel, jedoch finden wir der Preis war recht hoch.
Pros:

Das Personal war nett und zuvorkommend.
Das Zimmer war recht gross und geräumig und sah sehr gut aus! Das Essen im Restaurant war ebenfalls gut! Vorallem die Pizzanight hat uns sehr gefallen.
Der Pool war auch recht toll!

Cons:

Was uns an meisten gestört hat, war das der Hotelbereich für jeden zugänglich war und somit immer wieder Leute und zuteil Kinder kamen die um Geld gebettelt haben oder uns was verkaufen wollten (nicht
vom Hotel). Noch dazu hatten wir eine kaputte Klima als wir ankamen, wurde aber schnell, nachdem wir uns gemeldet haben, bei der Rezeption behoben. Leider hatten wir mal einen Stromausfall und somit konnten wir uns nicht duschen, dauerte leider ein paar Stunden bis wir wieder Strom hatten, wir haben uns da gefragt wieso das Hotel nicht den Generator starten möchte.

Pros:

standart kahvaltı çeşitleri var size uygun olanı seçiyorsunuz. otel direk olarak plaja açılmıyor ama yakın.

Cons:

en büyük sorunumuz sıcak su oldu. 5 gün boyunca donarak duş aldık 3 kere otel yönetimine söyledik. hiç bir sonuç alamadık.
