“Delightful and Peaceful”

the breakfast was very delicious, though the fruits were a bit sour. the staff were really friendly, whatever we needed they were available at any time. Hamisi was excellent and arranged a bouquet of flowers. The pool was clean, and perfect temperature ant any time of the day, it was such a lovely environment to rest and relax. The beach was relatively clean and peaceful during this time. There was a super CUTEEEEEEEEEE cat called arya too! we loved our stay here.

“Nice little hotel”

Near beach. Good clean pool. Small boutique style. Quiet but with local restaurants within a few minutes. Room with tv air con and fan therefore comfortable. Breakfast had a choice of courses but mainly comprised fruit fruit juice and another item. Same breakfast menu but you had a choice of options. Staff pleasant. Drinking Water provided daily. Wi fi okay.

“Amazing staff and relaxing atmosphere”

We chose this hotel for its natural and relaxed atmosphere, hoping to rest properly and enjoy the sea and sun, and it was just perfect. The beach is only a one-minute walk away. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful from the moment of booking until check-out, showing great care and attention, especially on special occasions. Everything was spotless, both in the room and in the common areas. The location is ideal for relaxing by the beach or the swimming pool, and the Wi-Fi worked very well. They truly do everything possible to make your stay memorable. The highlight was the therapeutic massage by Miriam — she was amazing! Many thanks to Laura, Fatima, Lucas, Miriam, Omar, and Amis — an excellent team. 🌺

An oasis of peace and quiet. Beautiful pool, comfortable rooms and tasty breakfast.

Arya Boutique is a serene green oasis — peaceful, beautifully kept, and very relaxing. The staff are truly amazing: attentive, warm, and always helpful. The owner, although not on the premises during my stay, personally messaged me before arrival and made sure I felt genuinely welcomed throughout my stay. It felt personal and very special.

“Amazing and peaceful place”

Everything Lucas from recepción was absolutely kind and attentive to our requests

We had an excellent three night stay at Arya Boutique Hotel. Laura was extremely responsive and helpful both in the lead up and throughout our stay; the staff at Arya are also gems, with a special shoutout to Mudy who is a really great guy! The breakfast was fresh and really good value, and the overall ambience is one of peace and relaxation. Less than 100m from the beach, the hotel is ideally located for those looking for a quiet getaway. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and hope to return again in future. Many thanks Laura and team for a lovely stay.

“I want to say: thank you for these days 🩷”

Staff 6/5. So friendly all the time - also before our holiday they were reachable via Whatsapp. When we got there, they helped us with our hopes to get different attractions. They also arranged my purse back from the taxi where I missed it.

“A cozy chill out place with friendly staff.”

it is a truly boutique hotel as it only has like 6 rooms, our group was in 3 of them and no other guests, so it was like our own little hotel. Hanging out within the hotel was relaxing and enjoyable. The staff were friendly and attentive to our needs. The pool was nice, tasty breakfast, daily room cleaning, air conditioning worked well. The location on the island is good if you want to explore the northern part and middle. It was a good place to recharge after a safari or a long day around the island - sleep, swim in the pool or lay in the sun beds by the pool and have good breakfast. One of our rooms had a faulty door lock, the hotel reacted quickly by moving us to a new room, which was a free upgrade as well, so from day 1 we felt taken care of in the best way. Thank you!

“Had an amazing stay!”

Very clean and close to the beach!Staff is very friendly 😀

“Paradise in Zanzibar”

What can we say, it was above our expectations and we didnt expect more than just to have a great time. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by wonderful staff, Deogratius, Muddy and Mwana! Laura, you should be very proud of them! We were very lucky to have an entire resort to ourselves due to big group cancellation very last minute and we felt like the queen and king for the next 3 days! Please, do not hesitate to stay at Arya! You will not be disappointed at all. Location, beautiful staff, amazing breakfast which was just perfect for our honeymoon, we were very teary to leave this cosy paradise! Thank you from all our hearts for looking after us, for beautiful surprise and presents and flowers and for everything else ❤️❤️❤️ We will see you soon. Deimante and Khosru

“Best hotel boutique in Zanzibar”

Wonderful place to stay. Only little amount of rooms, personalised service, very close to the beach (1min walk), the pool is also amazing (worth to spend a day chilling there) We had constantly support to organise our activities The people working there are outstanding, very nice, and pay attention to detail. Food and massages are also great! We will definitely come back!

“Magical place in Zanzibar”

We wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional experience we had during our stay in Arya. Before our arrival the communication with Laura was amazing, she answered always fast all my questions willing to help to make our stay perfect. From the moment we arrived in Zanzibar, the level of communication and warmth extended by Christian, Laura from the distance (she wasn’t at the moment there) and the entire team was truly outstanding. The genuine hospitality and kindness we received made our stay memorable. It's evident that you all take great pride in ensuring your guests feel welcomed and valued :)) Everything in Arya is just perfect! Starting from the breakfast options that were not only diverse but also incredibly delicious. The dishes were also a beautiful visual delight with the beautiful flowers ;) It was for sure a fantastic way to start each day of our stay. And of course a big compliment to the comfort of the hotel. The attention to detail in the rooms, the soothing ambiance, and the overall cleanliness truly made us feel at home. We enjoyed the pool in the evening because it was still sunny to enjoy a swim. It was during our stay my boyfriend’s birthday and Laura helped me to prepare him a beautiful surprise for his day. We finished the day having an amazing dinner at the pool! The amazing combination of floral decorations and delicious food (special compliment to the tiramisu) created a a truly magical and memorable evening!!! We will always remember it! Thank you for creating such a wonderful haven for travelers like ourself. We will undoubtedly be returning, and we highly recommend your establishment to anyone seeking a remarkable hotel experience.

“5 star treatment in beautiful intimate boutique hotel”

The staff were amazing, they went out of their way to make our stay full of surprises, full of Love, with impeccable service and exceptional personal and bespoke treatment. The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable and spacious. The lunch & breakfasts were the best food we had in Kiwenga. Marie was amazing at making sure we had all we needed. Laura was always available via WhatsApp to ensure we had 5star treatment. The gardener and room cleaner were such a delight, creating beautiful displays for us! Nothing was too much hassle for anyone. We had an unforgettable stay and are so grateful for all the attention to detail. The pool is perfect for kids and to dip into during hot afternoons. The beach is beautiful and super close!

“Wonderful, memorable stay.”

Beautiful small hotel with lovely garden and pool accessed directly from our two bedroom thatched cottage. The whole place has been really well conceived and offers a peaceful oasis away from the hustle and bustle. Our kids loved the walk in pool. Friendly, helpful staff and owner Laura who arranged a really special surprise and gifts for my wife’s big birthday. Tasty food for dinner and breakfast with the kitchen happy to accommodate our kids requests. The massages from the spa were excellent! We had a really memorable stay and would recommend. We had read about the beaches on the east coast being really tidal and difficult to swim in due to the sea urchins but didn’t find that to be an issue here. There were a number of shops and restaurants along the beach front.

“Incredible experience at Arya Boutique Resort”

Our stay at Arya Boutique Resort has been an absolutely amazing experience! This was a trip to celebrate our honeymoon and we were certainly treated like royalty (which I saw so many others had stated in their reviews and yet my expectations were still exceeded!). The staff were ever so polite and genuinely willing to assist when we needed something. The cherry on top was Laura's kindness, generosity and transparency of her personality. We felt so comfortable and were incredibly spoiled by Laura and the staff. This truly was a hearty experience. Arya Boutique Resort is a very special place indeed. I would highly recommend it.

“Great experience”

Small relaxed hotel, 20m from the beach, in the heart of a cute miniature garden with swimming pool, with nice, comfortable and clean rooms. Very good breakfast and dinner. Truly dedicated and gentle staff always ready and happy to assist you to reach the best possible experience : Laura (manager) always available, Alì at the restaurant very sympathetic and Mubarak at the desk. Very pleasant stay!
