Eden Paradise

eden paradise er er super dejligt lille hotel med en dejlig have og få minutter til stranden. jeg har boet her i en hel måned og har nydt mit ophold her. der er dejligt rent og en mega hyggelig lille paradis have. sandra gjorde alt hvad hun kunne når strømmen af og til går. og det gør den tit- men det gør den overalt på zanzibar. der var to piger ansat til rengøring og madlavning og jeg havde intet at klage over. et dejligt lille hjørne i michamvi og stille og roligt sted.

I booked the hotel for thirty days and ended leaving after 4 days.

The pictures may look pretty and filtered, and the name sounds wonderful. But the experience was not, this place should be named Eden Encampment. How this is labeled as a 3 star hotel is beyond me. This is at most a 1 star hotel on its best day.

It was advertised on hotel.com as having free wifi, to my dismay there was NO WIFI. The owner tried to play it off by providing me with a sim card 2 days later, I was charged for loading data on it for some internet.

I booked a queen bed on the 2nd floor, and was put on the first floor with a full bed. The wooden bed frame itself makes you feel claustrophobic, I can reach both ends from head to toe, and I am only 5'6". There is only a ceiling fan in the room, and often times there is blackouts in the city. One night the power went off for at least 6 hours, leaving for a sweltering night without the fan. The breaker box was also outside the wall of my room, making it more intrusive everytime the maintenance guy reset it.

The shower had barely a trickle for water pressure. The toilet kept flowing past the fill line, I would have to adjust and wiggle the fill sensor.

Only the owner has the only key to the front entrance, they will sometimes open it when they are there, most of the times it's closed. You will have to use the backdoor. It leads to the beach about 160 meters away through a narrow alleyway.

Det ble veldig varmt på rommet om natten.
Husk det er ingen aircondition.
Takviften går sakte fart om natten pga. lav spenning.

Close to a nice beach

The room was very clean and cozy with a comfortable bed. It’s very close to the beach which is great. I was welcomed by the nice, helpful and friendly staff.
I really enjoyed my time in Eden Paradise, it was like living in a little forest full of beautiful plants! :)

Super friendly staff and a lovley location

Lovely little place just one or two minutes from a nice peaceful beach. Really friendly and helpful owners. Nice comfy room with good mosquito nets. We had a delicious meal here one night as well.

Exterior decoration and the staff

The guest house is only a few minutes walk to the beach. The staff and owners are very friendly and quick to provide service. The breakfast was delicious and the room itself good value for the price.

The hotel was exactly I was looking for: boutique hotel in the middle of nature, very clean, near by the beach, restaurants & beach bars. The blue lagoon is 10 minutes away from the hotel.
Sandra, the owner, is very welcoming, she makes you feel at home. I have really enjoyed my stay there, I ll recommend it a lot

Wonderful little oasis within a few minutes from the beach. The staff are warm and helpful and made my stay there special.

beautiful, staff were lovely and so helpful. very clean, garden and surrounding area lovely

The breakfast was nice like a family one with little variations every day. It gave me an idea what is the best orange marmalade I ever tried in E. Africa (will not advertise here ;) ).
The location is good with ease walk access to a lot of things - beach, small shops, village bar.

This certainly exceeded my expectations! I stayed for a week alone (really, I was the inly guest) and it was perfect. The Staff is so friendly and welcoming, felt at home immediately.
The place is located one minute away from a white sand beautiful beach. The room was new, big shower, & the bed very comfortable. The fan worked perfectly.
The breakfast amazing with fruits, fresh tropical juice, and home-made pancakes!
Free drinking water, and I had lunch there and they made a special vegan dish for me, super tasty veggie curry and rice.
I was skeptical when I read the other reviews, but this is definitely an excellent place to stay. 100% recommend.
Thank you Mohammed for the lovely food, and big thanks to Salum, the owner, who gave me the opportunity of witnessing a Zanzibar Village wedding. Will stay in my mind forever 🌞
Many blessings to you.

very nice and caring staff. good location (2’ walk from the beach), good price, food breakfast, comfy room, clean bathroom. everything you need for a perfect stay!

Peaceful & beautiful surroundings

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Eden Paradise. The facilities were excellent, the owners Sandra and Salem were very welcoming and helpful, breakfast buffet was great. Plenty of spaces to relax in and the coldest beer in Michamvi. Highly recommended, great value for money

amazing staff super friendly! The breakfast is great as well. Only 1 minute from the beach and cool look - the best budget option IMO

Great owner who really loves what he is doing.
Definitely recommended!
