The hotel is right at the beach with a spectacular view

The drive to it has you worrying as it roadways are a bit rough and there’s quite a bit of rubbish. I don’t know why the hotels and resturant that use the same road (and there must be a few) don’t team up to clean the road so you’re not walking over flattened plastic bottles.

Front side Location was stunning and it was clean and tidy as well

A little bit of upgrade would have made a big difference to the overall experience

Mostly all is good. Only thing dont order salad in the restaurant (food in general very good) its a big joke for 15 000. 3 slice tomato, 3 slice cucomber and 5 small Alices avokado 😂

Close to beach. Nice backyard and pool.

Humidity causes a smell in the room that requires to keep air conditioning always ON

The internal garden is fabulous with wild animals around the pool!

Very basic accommodation. The only plugs that worked in the room were in the bathroom and the fridge plugs. The bathroom could do with remodelling. When we arrived the price was lower than when we booked… I guess they had available rooms but the rooms weren’t so great. We saw a huge rat and cockroaches. The card machine didn’t work and they had to get a taxi for me to get the money. There was an atm at walking distance that was off for all of our stay…

Very central location and near the beach. The staff at the restaurant were very nice. Very clean!

You can tell that in it's day the Langi Langi was a lovely facility, however, it is rundown now and probably hard to keep up with the maintenance. Décor and amenities are barely basic if you don't mind fraying towels and broken lamps. Breakfast included was comprehensive but other meals, not very appealing.

I booked the 3rd floor room because of the expansive view. To me this was the best part as I could watch the coming and going on the beach. As long as I closed my eyes to the rundown aspects of the place I truly enjoyed my stay there. Walking into the water directly off the steps was amazing. Be sure to check out the wildlife in the pool area.

Terrible internet. Constant hawkers on beach. (True for all hotels on this stretch of beach.)

Close to beach. Friendly staff. Clean. Great restaurant.

The place needs a little more maintenance but I understand how hard it’s to keep the properties near the ocean in perfect state.

Personnel very kind and ready to help. The location is perfect, right in front of the ocean. We really enjoyed our time there.

- I guess the bathrooms could be renovated but they were clean and the cleaning crew came in everyday and they were nice - the WiFi could be improved - I’m not sure if it’s still a problem but when we stayed there the horse tours were taking place right by the hotel.

the location is good, not too big not too small, the room was beautiful, the view was 10/10. pay more for the tumbatu room, it’s the best just beware that there’s no actual beach beach at the hotel at high tide: there’s like a deck you get into the water from, but it’s nice since you have much more privacy and no trespassers are allowed. low tide is okay, do not stay anywhere that’s more towards the north than Langi Langi - the water goes way far back and it smells. Langi Langi was perfect even at low tide although we never swam during it. - never got to swim in the pool, but the dwarf deers were cool

Room was very spartan.. was actually hard to find a power outlet to charge my phone at night.

The "continental" breakfast was actually better than expected. There was hot soup, pancakes/french-toast, and eggs (omelet) available in addition to some pastries, cereal, fruit. This place had the best Wi-Fi I've ever had in Zanzibar... was very good (all the rest of places I've stayed have been very unreliable). There were some interesting animals that seemed to live close to the rooms: monkeys, suni (dwarf antelope), and some chicken/turkey-looking animal. Was fun to watch them.

The rooms are a bit run down.

Their pool is hidden away and shady. so it’s nice for kids to swim at any time of the day. Good price for what you get.

The staff weren’t very helpful or welcoming. The rooms are very dated, with some fixtures in the bathroom falling apart. Had to wait some time to get extra towels. The breakfast wasn’t great with little options.

Located in a Greta location. The rooms were big with views of wildlife from the balcony.

The beds were very short (we're both 1.65 and reached the footboard!) and came with thick/hard pillows - though that was the case in every Zanzibar hotel). The AC quit working one night, which resulted in some tough hours. They fixed it first thing in the morning. Wifi was a bit spotted. A waterboiler and some tea/coffee on the room would have been appreciated.

Nice hotel at a great location, right at the beach (though we prefered Royal Beach, about 200mtr south). The garden room is pretty basic, but serves its purpose and is nicely located in the peaceful garden, which comes with a clean pool, and is also the home of some dikdiks. Breakfast was alright. We also had lunch a few times, loved the pizzas!

Rasta the owner has created a little wonderland ..with amazing lush green enclave with few free roaming domesticated animals on his property. A boutique feel and staff are very helpful and welcoming. If you wish to experience true Zanzibar warmth and welcome...then Langi Langi is the place. True to Zanzibar culture, emphasis is on hospitality and to make guests feel welcome rather then on pure commercial gain. Will surely come back...

The bed and pillows were so hard not comfortable at all. The aircondition/fan was very noisy.

The bungalow is just a few meters from beach, that was perfect. The seaview was breathtaking and the room was very spacoius.The staffs were very friendly. Food was good.

Stayed in December 2022

the beds were awful! the mattress was cheap and old foam and Uber uncomfortable. the sheets were low quality and the pillows were horrendous!

loved the location

The room felt a bit outdated an we were missing basic things like more hooks for towels - not that this is would hurt that much, but for the given room prices, such things should not be missing. Also the shower flooded the whole bathroom which was kind of annoying after a few days... The bed was ok for one or two nights, but after that it felt a bit saggy. The service at the reception was ok but also not too friendly - again something I would expect differently for the given room price. Also the staff at the restaurant was very slow. Most annoying were other tourists that were laying their towels on the hotels beach loungers prior to breakfast, so there was no free space anymore. The hotel staff should take care of that. All in all we had a very good time in Langi Langi, but again, in the aftermath it felt a bit too pricy for the overall experience.

Our room was located in a garden with a very nice atmosphere and many animals. The room was cozy and we had a safe in it. The location of the hotel is really close to the beach and the hotel-restaurant has a great view on the sea.

owner was told me to make sure to lock my things in my safe so my friend who was staying with me (who is a local) wouldn’t rob me or the hotel.

beautiful property.
