“It was a good risk 😁”
The location provides an easy access to public means because it's on the highway but it's way too far from town and from all the other excursions.

I had a wonderful stay at Dragonfly Hotel. The price is very affordable, making it great value for money. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, especially considering the price. The location is excellent, and the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to assist with a smile. While there’s no gym, the overall experience and hospitality more than make up for it. I would definitely recommend this hotel to budget-conscious travelers looking for a clean, friendly, and conveniently located place to stay in Zanzibar!

“A cozy quiet enjoyable stay”
Very good little resort with a small pool to dip in. Very nice and warm boss and staff, all ready to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Even upgraded the breakfast for me. The sweet breakfast was just delicious! Also offer some simple lunch and dinner when you are lazy to go out. Walking distance to the beach, small shopping area and the Kuza Cave.
