This small resort is located in the fishing village of Jambiani on the east peninsula of Zanzibar. This is a three star getaway by Zanzibari standards, but frequent travellers should expect something more akin to a two star eco-resort. Coral Rock recognises this on its own website. The Beach Bungalows and Hotel offer comfort and a relaxed service, rather than luxury facilities and perfection. Accommodation is either half (breakfast and dinner) or full-board (includes lunch).

The staff and managers at Coral Rock are really friendly and warm even though most are local and have broken English. Employing locals and helping them develop their language is part of the hotel's community investment policy. Service on offer is polite but laid-back.

Things to do at Coral Rock Beach Bungalows and Hotel


When it comes to activities the hotel has much to offer. The local village and beach can be explored by foot or on bicycle. Although the beaches are quiet and unspoilt, they are also left natural, meaning seaweed and sea urchins are characteristic. Some water-sports equipment is free to hire and one can also hire snorkelling and fishing gear. The hotel has its own dhow boat which guests can go sailing in; trips are organised regularly. The hotel pool is a good size for swimming or just taking a dip in to cool off from the sun.


The hotel can arrange many excursions and tours including, swimming with dolphins, visiting Stone Town and the spice plantations or the Jozani Forest. Though trips can add up in cost they are worth doing if one is staying in one place on Zanzibar for any length of time.


The hotel has its own TV lounge with laptops and internet available for guest use. The hotel also offers a massage parlour for those looking to completely de-stress.

The complex is about an hour's drive from Stone Town or Zanzibar Airport. The hotel will arrange transfers for approximately USD 55 one way (up to four people sharing). Alternatively one can take a taxi or hire a car.


Much of the coastline of this peninsula has been developed to reflect the luxury requirements of Western travellers. However, the surrounding villages and the roads reflect the poverty of Tanzania. Although hotel websites may advertise these places as ‘charming and traditional' they may simply appear run-down.
