“Best All Inclusive Hotel I’ve ever Stayed”
Best hotel I’ve stayed in my life. The attention from the staff can’t be better. The food, the swimming pools, the drinks. Everything is truly amazing in this hotel. I HIGHLY recommend. Some all inclusive hotels doesn’t offer good quality in services and food, The Mora is the opposite. Super High quality in everything they offer.

“An exceptional resort where luxury meets deeply personalized service, making our anniversary stay truly unforgettable.”
A Remarkable Anniversary Stay at The Mora Zanzibar I recently stayed at The Mora Hotel in Zanzibar, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Exceptional Hospitality & Leadership The check-in process was seamless, especially since I had already used the mobile app. We were greeted with a refreshing welcome drink, but what truly stood out was the personal touch from the General Manager (GM). He came specifically to welcome us on our first day, and throughout our stay, he was visible every day, checking in to ensure we were having a perfect experience. Special Anniversary Touches When the GM learned we were celebrating our wedding anniversary, he personally took the initiative to arrange a beautiful setup in our room. It was a thoughtful gesture that made our celebration even more special. Dining & Services The culinary experience was outstanding. There are about five restaurants on-site, and every single one served delicious, high-quality food. • The Main Restaurant: I was impressed that it stays open 24/7, providing excellent service and great meals at any hour. • Pool & Beach: There are three large pools, and the service at both the pools and the beach was top-notch. Atmosphere & Safety The entire staff was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional. We also felt very safe as security was present and attentive throughout the resort. Additionally, the daily activities and evening shows were entertaining and a great way to end the day. The Grand Finale: Late Check-out Since our flight was late in the evening, the GM went above and beyond by granting us a complimentary late check-out until 5:00 PM. He even extended our access to the restaurants and bars as part of the stay, which was incredibly generous and much appreciated. Verdict A huge thank you to the management, the GM, and the entire team for their hospitality. They truly made our stay beautiful. Highly recommended!

“Wonderful long stay with great food, beach, pools, and entertainment”
We spent nearly three fantastic weeks at this hotel and truly loved our stay. The room was perfect for us—clean, comfortable, and well maintained—and we would like to thank the housekeeping staff for their excellent work. The food was outstanding throughout our stay. Our absolute favorite was the Jua Grill, where we enjoyed amazing grilled dishes, including lobster. Special thanks to the friendly and attentive staff there for the exceptional service. We were also satisfied with the main restaurant, and over such a long stay, the variety offered by the themed restaurants was greatly appreciated. The hotel has a beautiful beach. While the tidal changes are significant, they did not bother us, and we were able to swim in the sea every day. One downside was the constant presence of beach vendors, who frequently approached us even when entering the water. There are several swimming pools at the hotel, and our favorite was the garden pool, which provided a relaxing atmosphere and delicious cocktails. Among the bars, the Eclipse Bar stood out—special thanks to Asha, our always-smiling and wonderful waitress, who made every visit memorable. The evening entertainment was varied and enjoyable, and we especially loved the live music. Overall, we had an amazing stay and would happily return anytime. We definitely recommend this hotel.
