MyBlue is a nice hotel direct on the beach, owner is an Italian family, so it's a little bit like in Rimini...
If you wnat to have a sun bed on the Beach, you have to pay!!
At least Myblue rent these sunbed to everybody for 10$.
For 10$ you can stay the all day on the most beautifull beach of Zanzibar, bring your own drink and food, have a free internet the all day. Is that not nice!
I paid 3000$ for 9 nights and have to pay extra to be on the beach.
Next time i will take an cheap hotel and will spend my day for 10$ at Myblue...
When you are booking a room add the information that you don't want a room next to the Disco!!!

Great property

The first room we got, when we opened the door, there was a cat inside staring at us, then we were moved to the second room, where we could not sleep ALL NIGHT because there were termites chewing those woods inside the room and the chewing noise was so loud that we could not sleep! We even recorded it just make the front desk people listen, and they were astonished! Then we were moved again to a third room. This was a really painful hotel stay!!

Pleasant 5 nights stay. The two housekeeping ladies are genuine with big smiles. Dinner options are satisfactory (considering the standard in Africa). Rooms are old but with this price point it is fair. The rest of the hotel including swimming pool and bar area are pretty.

Beach and food is world class!
Really value for the money

Enjoyed my stay 4 nights at My Blue. If you’re looking for a good vibe, friendly staff and cleanliness then this is the place.

La struttura esternamente è tenuta molto bene. Le camere sono spaziose, seppur arredate economicamente, pulite e il bagno con doccia e asciugamani cambiati giornalmente. La spiaggia privata di sabbia bianca è in ottima posizione per godersi il tramonto. Sdraio moderne e nuove. La cucina un pò ripetitiva e l'angolo pasta da migliorare. La serata con cena in spiaggia e musica é stata bellissima. Il frigobar sempre rifornito con acqua e bibite. Non mi è piaciuto non avere una bottiglia d'acqua a tavola ma dover sempre chiedere ai camerieri che riempivano il bicchiere. Il mio giudizio, comunque, a parte qualche pecca è molto positivo

Stunning grounds, large, comfortable rooms, great location. I was thrilled to arrive. But the staff need better training. 2 issues—1 minor and common, 1 major and shocking—spoiled my stay.
Minor—the breakfast area staff are TOO aggressive about taking away plates. Every 3 minutes someone tried to take my half-finished plate and coffee. Let a man enjoy his breakfast in peace without being rushed!
Major—checkout was AWFUL! 5 staff behind the desk, only me and 1 other couple in front of the desk, but it took nearly 30 minutes. When I presented my door bracelet, and said "checking out," the staff looked at me blankly. I was ignored for 10 minutes. They finally got around to it, another 10 minutes later they came with a US$2 bill for tourist tax. (I paid $180 for the night, but OK...I gave 5,000 shillings) "Are we done?" "we check the room now." "Just now?!!" 20 minutes into it, I tried to leave (had a boat trip departure for my 50th birthday that was NOT flexible due to the tides).
They LITERALLY held me captive. The security guard seized my bag from me and protected the gate, crying that he would be fired if he let me out. Shocking! I said: "look if you want anything at all from me, simply ask for it and I will gladly give whatever it is, but I MUST leave NOW" but they wouldn't budge until I made an ugly scene. I arrived 15 minutes late to my destination and was lucky to board the boat.
Sum: More "Pole Pole" needed in the dining area, and far LESS needed at checkout.

Staff was very friendly and helpfull, food was good with a large choice of items during the meals, rooms need a refresh but they are spacious and comfortable

Overall the hotel property was nice. The included meals were good and buffet style. The Friday night dinner on the beach was great. A small point for some perhaps is that the pillows were small and a bit lumpy.
The beach was fantastic apart from the annoying touts or "beach boys as they call them who harass you endlessly to buy things and tours. They hang out right in front of the hotel property, and spoiled every visit to the beach as they follow you even after you tell them you're not interested. If the hotel can't move these people on it would be great if the authorities would do something about it. Either move them away, or allow them to set up a tour stand with the proviso they don't harrass visitors.

We had no hot water for 4 days of staying, we offerd no compansation from mannegement and the one thing that they could tell us about it is "welcome to Zanzibar". The room was old and smelly. We paid around 200 U.S dollers for this lowsy treatmant and old room and facilities. We were at our Honeymoon and we got no champaine or any notification of it and the Hotel just ruined our Zanzibar vacation. The worst value for money. The same food in every meal. I wouldn't seggest my enemys to go there

This is a nice and comfortable hotel. Location is great, food is amazing and in general, staff is very pleasant. The only bad experience was at the reception upon our arrival. They were rude and kind of nasty. At one point, I called them because I wasn't satisfy with the room I got (I have asked for two beds and got only 1), and the lady was even screaming to the man on the phone, obviously mad at me. Even at the check out they were rude! Finally, if you drink, stick to beers and wine as the cocktails is nothing but juice!

Mattress was not good, it was too soft. Could not sleep whole night.
Please ask the hotel to change the mattress.

The hotel had one of the best place near the beach. Yet, the facilities were way below average. 1. I got food poisoned on my last day, right after I checked out. Be aware of their lunch menus that wait very long. 2. The towels were grey, not possible to use.
There are two nice hotels nearby, Z hotel and Diamond.., just consider them in case the price is comparable.
4.2
Amazing spot to relax!
Staff very friendly. Hotel very Good In general but the room was 'asking' for manutenaince (toilet, AC, etc)
Good entertainment during a Beach dinner very well organized. A positive experience.

The food is good with plenty of choice and the staff are all very friendly and efficient. This is very much a holiday resort for Italian guests. Th rooms are not so good... Shower leaking and the bathroom in genera need of maintenance. TV initially didn't work at all, then after being "fixed" gave half blue screen and half yellow making all viewing like some sort of smurfs meets Simpsons episode. Not that the tv was majorly important with nungwi beach being so accessible. Beds very hard but still had a good sleep. Aircon in room very bad and temp can't ups not be changed. All inclusive price only includes food and drinks at meal times... Therefore calling it all inclusive is misleading so be prepared for extras.

Great hotel with all the expected amenities for a 4 star hotel. Absolute paradise with the best beach on the island.
It needs to be noted that the hotel is an Italian establishment, which isn't a problem, however the staff are mostly only proficient in Italian or Swahili and not English.
I did expect more of a buffet selection, and the quality of the food is variable.
It wasn't for the food, I would have given it 5 out of 5.
Thanks for a great stay.
