The only downside is advertising a gym when in actual fact there is only a yoga instructor. A bit disappointing

By far my favorite

Such a beautiful property. So many privat spots all on their property. The whole hotel is about ecologically friendly design with much love for details. The staff is very knowledgeable, genuine and friendly.
Food was excellent. There are two restaurants to choose from one being Vietnamese. They have two spas and a variety of fitness classes, yoga and a jungle gym. I would recommend it to everyone to stay there for a few days.

Best stay in Jambiani

We enjoyed every minute of our stay at this beautiful boutique hotel. The location, room and beach are just stunning and exceeded our expectations. We like exploring and trying different places while on holiday, however we returned to Sharazād for dinner most days as their food and cocktails were just the best - especially when it comes to vegetarian options. Variety of breakfast and lunch/dinner changed daily, so we were spoilt with choices. Staff was helpful and approachable at all times and we felt very well looked after. Hoping to return to Sharazād Villas very soon.

Good resort with a little to gain still

A nice resort, but mainly for romantic couples I believe. As so many places in Zanzibar the food was not up to standards as I am used to, but it is fair. The prices for extra services such as laundry was VERY expensive compared to other hotels/resorts I visited in Zanzibar.
And.. of course the staff....
For English speakers they were friendly, polite and nice.
But (also as so many other places in Zanzibar) when they spoke Swahili among themselves they gave bad characteristics both of the guests and the owner. Lot of not so good voicing when they believe you cannot understand them.

Lovely hotel but needs air con

My husband and I enjoyed our stay, the service from the manager Hanis was personable and professional. The beach is not great for swimming due to the amount of seaweed but it is lovely to swim there, just needs to be timed. The food is lovely and the area quiet. Disappointly , the room did not have any air conditioning, just two fans. In high temperatures like what we experienced we feel this is a must.

Ich war Ende Mai in der Nebensaison im Sharazād Boutique Hotel, und das Wetter war eine wunderbare Überraschung — fast kein Regen, nur Sonnenschein die ganze Zeit.
Der Strand ist magisch. Man kann endlos spazieren gehen, und es fühlt sich absolut sicher und friedlich an. Das Hotel selbst ist mit so viel Liebe und Detailverliebtheit gestaltet, wie ich es noch nie zuvor gesehen habe — überall sind Hängematten und gemütliche kleine Rückzugsorte versteckt, die einfach zum Entspannen einladen.
Das Essen ist außergewöhnlich, und die Mitarbeiter sind etwas ganz Besonderes — herzlich, aufmerksam und in der Lage, einem jeden Wunsch von den Augen abzulesen, bevor man ihn überhaupt ausspricht.
Ein echtes Highlight war das Yoga. Der Lehrer ist wunderbar professionell, und da ich in der Nebensaison fast alleine war, hatte ich private Stunden — entweder im überdachten Yoga-Tempel, umgeben von Dschungelgeräuschen, Affen und Vogelgezwitscher, oder direkt am Strand. Beides war unvergesslich.
Einer der besten Hotelaufenthalte meines Lebens. Ich komme auf jeden Fall wieder.
