Casa del Mar is an exquisite refuge from the generic sea side resorts of the world. Here, instead of noisy generators running air conditioning, the quiet of the ceiling fans allows for the sound of the surf to lull you to sleep. The cost of healthy meals cooked to your specifications has not been inflated for the tourist dollar. William, Fred, and Wilimina were personally warm in addition to professionally efficient. They arranged a bike for me (where else is the sand of the beach so flat and hard that you can ride a bicycle on it?), taught me to play Bao, and took me to the New Year’s parties in town (a much better experience than the $50. visit to the Massai village while on safari). Before continuing on to the airport, Salim allowed me to leave my baggage in his car, while he had business in Stonetown, so that I could explore the city without having to arrange for a special day trip. I chose to stay in Zanzibar in order to recover from my climb of Kilimanjaro; it turned out to be a lovely destination on its own. If I lived in Europe, instead of California (a total of 20 hours air time), I would return regularly. |

As a tour leader for a leading UK operator, over the past few years I have spent time in more hotels than most people would in a lifetime. None sticks in my mind more than the Casa del Mar. Initially I was sent to this beautiful place to report on the hype surrounding a newly created hotel in Jambiani in 2005. Well, I couldn't stay away. Not only is this paradisiacal hotel set on arguably the most beautiful beach in Zanzibar, I defy anyone to find a more accommodating group of hosts anywhere in the world. I've been back three times and hope to return again very soon. Certainly a visit never to be forgotten. |

We spent 3 nights at the Casa in December 2006, and it was a perfect ending to our safari. The staff were the best of any in our travels across 5 continents. It is just very relaxing. We highly recommend! |
