We had a truly wonderful stay at Sea Cliff Resort, which served as a peaceful oasis during our time in Zanzibar. The accessible room was not only spacious but beautifully designed, and the staff went out of their way to ensure my wife felt comfortable and included. The only downside was a small issue regarding accessibility to the beach and the cleanliness of the jetty area. Overall, it was a memorable experience we would highly recommend to any family or couple looking for a relaxing getaway.

I had a wonderful stay at Sea Cliff Hotel, where the views were breathtaking and the activities abundant. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the beach area had its limitations at low tide. Dining was diverse and enjoyable, especially the Zanzibari night. The service was mostly good, though some interactions felt a little off. Overall, it's a great place to unwind and explore beautiful Zanzibar, but keep in mind the beach situation.
