I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beachside hotel. The location is perfect, right by the ocean, which makes the atmosphere very relaxing and peaceful. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. Everything from the service to the environment was excellent. I truly enjoyed my time here and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway

Hotel with big potential, a few hickups

Ifa Beach Resort is a nice hotel in what used to be a small village (Jambiani), but which has grown quite a lot in recent years. The hotel itself has a beautiful beach setting, coconut trees which are lit at night, two swings, a clean pool (children area and for adults), direct access to the beach and tasty food. They allowed us to enter our room 2 hours earlier than anticipated. Nice balcony with a sea view. Shout out especially to Haji for being a splendid employee, he really cares for his guests.

Traumatic experience

Traumatic experience at reception before we could checkin and left the premises due to security and safety concerns. A family, current guests at the resort, were robbed of their valuables in their room, while they were sleeping. We left the resort after a private discussion with the owner. Police are/were investigating the incident.

Relaxed, serene beach holiday

Situated directly on the beach, with pool and loungers overlooking the sea. Relaxed holiday club atmosphere, with a good selection of different restaurants close by. Quiet fishing village atmosphere, with many dhows sailing in and out giving it a feeling of serenity. Friendly, helpful staff. Numerous activities in close reach (Dhow rides, snorkelling, Paje, caves, Jozani & mangrove forests, butterfly and reptile park)

À wonderful stay, like Paradise, couldn’t dream better !

My family and I had an absolutely perfect stay at IFA Beach Resort ! The hotel is beautifully maintained, ideally located in a calm and peaceful setting, and the reservation team took a good care of my requests to give us an incredible spot right by the sea. Falling asleep every night to the soothing sound of the waves was simply magical … But above all, what made our experience unforgettable was the team ! They are wonderful I would like especially to mention : Mr Ali who took care of our reservation and made sure we were nicely welcomed Said, Andrew and captain Haji who taught us swahili and took care of us always and made sure we were not missing anything and tailing their service to make us as comfortable as possible. Our superstar Sihaini and Ahmed feeding us with excellent dishes always with a big smile and a funny word to put us in a good mood ! They quickly felt like part of the family, always warm, attentive, and ready to share genuine moments of hospitality coming from the heart. We enjoyed many convivial and memorable times together, which made our stay even more special. Everything was flawless from out arrival until out departure, and we will definitely be coming back !
