Spent a lovely week at Coral Rock, enjyoing the peace and quiet and sublime views. Staff were friendly and the private bungalows are lovely. The hotel has an enviable location on a rock cliff, which affords incredible views of the ocean and the changing tides. Local villagers can be seen harvesting seaweed. It's away from the hustle and bustle of... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at Coral Rock in summer 2012 and had an absolutely fantastic time. The room was lovely with a private balcony and fantastic views. As noted by other reviewers, the service in the restaurant was a little slow however they were up front about it and it allows you to enjoy the views/atmosphere/company. They have created... More

There is no beach. Our room was full of cockroaches. It's much more expensive than any of the other hotels along that stretch of the coast (which all do have beaches). $170 vanished from our safe and when we asked them to look into it, we were simply told, "Our staff are beyond reproach". While the staff were friendly, the... More

The place is OK, and definitely has a relaxing atmosphere with hammocks and sunbeds spread out on the place. Others here have rated and described facilities in more detail, but I would like to add one important piece of information about the restaurant: As others have noted, the food is delicious but it takes time for it to be served!...

We planned to stay 4 nights, but left already after 2 nights. We paid quiet a lot of money for a bad service. During dinner one of the employees did try to sell all kind of excursions, even after we told him we didn't appreciate. Finally the employee asked to use our laptop for skyping with his friends... When we... More

We live and work on the island (north Zanzibar) and needed a little relaxing break... Coral Rock turned out to be the perfect place for just that. The food was absolutely incredible, the best we've eaten on the island ('real' chicken!), the place itself has a relaxing air about it, it's quite charming with a lovely layout for the restaurant,...

The facilities of the hotel are quite nice: pool, rooms, and restaurant. We stayed in the cottage 12 with a nice private patio outside with benches, sun loungers, hammocks and a nice view of the ocean and dawn. One of the big issues in some African countries is power and during our stay in Zanzibar we had several long power... More

My parter and I went straight to Coral rock after a few nights in Dar. We researched many places in Jambiani while in Australia but are so glad we chose to stay here. The staff are fantastic, they go out of their way to make sure you are happy and are willing to sincerely apologize for even the smallest of... More

My friend and I stayed here during our African trip in November. This hotel is quite out of the way, and takes about an hour to get to from Stonetown by taxi. This hotel is a nice hotel, but we had the most basic room, with twin beds (we asked for a twin bed room) It seemed all the other... More
