Review of My Blue Hotel
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 31 Oct 2018via mobile
Lovely Ocean View Room. The staff are so warm, willing and friendly! Great food and in our week here we have so far had 2 wonderful beach BBQ's. Awesome food, ambience and vibes.
This has to be one of the best beach locations in the region. We know because we have been here before and have returned to Nungwi. The low tides do not affect the swimming here. You simply have to do a dhow sunset cruise or two or three!

All inclusive beverage side needs to be jacked up...lack of ice constantly, regularly told "no white wine".and got told...."the ship is coming with stocks....however the manager would sit with his nice bottle of white on his table in an ice bucket....hmmmmm"
The next day oooops ...run out vodka, then, no mint etc etc. Having said that if you can be more adaptable as to what to consume then "Hakuna Matata" (no worries).
Had a fabulous and very relaxing 9 day break. ...totally rejuvenated.

Room tip: Away from pool bar for a quieter room

The hotel was lovely, the rooms were neat and serviced every day. The hotel was nicely situated close to the beach and surrounding activities, nice for swimming and snorkling.
The only negatives was they often ran out of ice, beer and white wine which was rather frustrating as we had booked a all inclusive package.
Would definitely recommend the hotel.

Room tip: Would suggest away from the pool area for quietness.

PLEASE! PLEASE!!!!! DO NOT BOOK AT My Blue Hotel!!!!
They had us stopped at a police roadblock and wanted us arrested for a hotel bill of $14!!!!! Which was PAID!!!! The receptionist at My Blue Hotel refused to accept the proof of payment. She was adamant that we are to be arrested.As frequent visitors to a lot of countries in Africa and a love for this continent, this was the worst experience we ever had. It will take us a long time to put this behind us and come to terms with this horrendous incident. We are still traumatized!!! Neither had the hotel offered an apology yet.

The hotel is 2 min walking from Royal hotel, both are sharing the most beautiful beach in Zanzibar, no rocks, a lot of locals on the shore welcoming you.
Hotel is fine, the rooms are cleaned, smells good, desk is open 24h, but be pationed, ita the rule in zanzibar.

The food in the dining room is above the avarage, but don't expect too much.

The hotel is 10 minutes from the cholos/zen hotel where you can find restaurants and pubs.
Enjoy!

This was my second visit to the My Blue Hotel and although an excellent holiday and a place I will visit again, I hope that they improve their game a little
Overall the criticisms are minor and did not interfere with a relaxing holiday
The rooms are comfortable and spacious, the pool is clean and big enough, yet it is the little things....
Whilst you can not expect an all inclusive buffet restaurant to serve haute cuisine, the menu after a few days becomes boring, given that Zanzibar is THE spice island the chef could shake things up a little.
The bar has an extensive range of delicious cocktails, however there is poor stock control, one day no mint, one day no lemons etc.
The bed linen and towels are clean and yet slightly threadbare
I would recommend The My Blue to anyone, however, there is a danger that it may fade an become a shadow of its former self.
