Vi hade en härlig vistelse på Oasis som överträffade våra förväntningar. Tack till personalen som gjorde allt för att vi
Pros:

Stället var en riktig oas - det var välstädat, vackert, lugnt, en skön stämning och personalen gjorde sitt yttersta för att leverera exceptionell service. Frukosten var utmärkt och det bjuds på rent vatten hela tiden

Cons:

Det låg lite avsides och det var lite svårt att hitta bra restauranger i närheten.

Une salle de sport très bien équipé !
Les villas sont juste immenses, très propre.
L’hôtel dispose de deux piscines, il est très bien entretenue.

Nous avons pu assisté à une soirée typique de la bas, avec buffet, danseurs, acrobates c’était super
Un sans faute pour cette hôtel, loger au calme et à la fois à proximité de la plage!
L’un des meilleurs séjour de ma vie alors merci

Can We Move In Permanently?
Pros:

From the moment you step into the resort, you are greeted by a breathtaking view of the pools, bar area, and reception. The entire property is immaculate, beautifully designed, and instantly creates a feeling of peace, relaxation, and luxury.

We stayed in the villa with the private pool, and honestly, words cannot do it justice. It exceeded every expectation we had. We paid €167 per night, and in our opinion, this is exactly the kind of price that good quality hotels in Zanzibar should be around.

Everything was spotless and exceptionally well maintained. The beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable, and the villa itself was tastefully decorated with great attention to detail. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed for those who prefer to prepare their own meals.

What impressed us most was how thoughtfully everything had been planned. Every detail seemed carefully considered, and throughout our stay there was not a single thing we felt was missing.

Another detail that truly impressed us was the private pool. It was cleaned twice a day and was always crystal clear, spotless, and inviting. The water temperature was perfect, making it enjoyable at any time of the day. It was evident that the staff took great care in maintaining it, which made our stay even more relaxing and luxurious.

The restaurant served delicious food, with excellent quality ingredients and beautiful presentation. A must-try dish is the octopus with coconut sauce — absolutely outstanding.

We also felt completely comfortable eating and drinking throughout our stay, including cocktails with ice, which is something many travelers appreciate when visiting Zanzibar.

The resort is surrounded by lush tropical gardens filled with palm and banana trees, creating a true paradise-like atmosphere. Even the gym becomes a pleasure to use when you're exercising while surrounded by such stunning scenery.

This was easily one of the most memorable and enjoyable stays we have ever had.

Cons:

Honestly, the only thing we disliked was having to pack our bags and leave. If that counts as a complaint, it says everything about how wonderful our stay was! ⭐😄

Value for money.
Pros:

Everything, good variety for breakfast. The staff is 100%. Shout out to Kidawa, Joseph, Irene, Joshua. Chef, security and house keeping, you guys rock. 10/10 minus nothing.

The Oasis Jambiani, you owe us nothing. You were good to us day after day

Cons:

The transport guys organized by staff are very expensive.

Our stay exceeded all expectations; the comfort, hospitality, and service were truly unforgettable. I would highly recom
Pros:

First of all, the fact that the property is located in Jambiani is a great advantage for tourists, as it is both a safe and well-developed area. From the very first moment we arrived at the hotel, we were welcomed with warm smiles, and we were extremely satisfied with the staff’s attentiveness and the quality of service. They were always helpful, incredibly kind, and genuinely friendly.

The design, comfort, and spacious living areas of the residence we stayed in made us realize once again that we had made the right choice. As an architect, I was particularly impressed by the hotel’s common areas, landscape design, and the circulation relationship between the buildings and their surroundings. The architectural approach of the property was truly impressive in terms of both aesthetics and functionality. The architect behind this project has done an outstanding job.

I would also like to express special thanks to the hotel manager, Mara. She was an incredibly sweet, caring, and elegant person. She took wonderful care of us throughout our stay. We would also like to sincerely thank the team for the surprise birthday celebration and room decorations prepared for my cousin, which made us very happy. It was a truly thoughtful gesture.

We greatly enjoyed our time here and truly grew fond of everyone. We hope to see you again soon.

Cons:

Everything was absolutely perfect. It was impossible not to be satisfied.
