The nearest airport is Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ), located around 50 km from SBH Monica Zanzibar. By car, taxi or private transfer, the journey usually takes between 50 and 70 minutes. As a guide, a taxi or pre-booked transfer generally costs between USD 30 and 50 each way, depending on the season and type of vehicle. We do not operate our own transfer service, but we work with local companies that can arrange one with prior booking; if you wish, you can contact us to organise it. There is no direct public transport connection from the airport to the hotel; for greater comfort and safety, we recommend a taxi or private transfer booked in advance.

The hotel offers free outdoor parking with a limited number of spaces (reservations are not possible), and free public parking is also available nearby.

Yes, free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel, including guest rooms and communal areas; please ask at reception for access details.

We offer a varied, high-quality buffet breakfast with hot and cold dishes, bread and pastries, fresh fruit, cereals and dairy products, a selection of cheeses and cold cuts, a live cooking station, as well as hot drinks (coffee and tea) and juices. If you have any allergies or intolerances, please let us know on arrival and speak to our staff, who will be happy to guide you in your choice. The service is designed as an open buffet and does not include personalised menus; however, we will be pleased to help you select suitable options according to your needs.

We offer a range of room categories to suit different types of stay, including Double Rooms and Family Rooms. All are fully equipped with air conditioning, satellite TV, free Wi-Fi, a mini-fridge, hairdryer and complimentary amenities. In addition, all rooms have a balcony or terrace.

Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is until 11:00.

You can pay for your booking on arrival by credit/debit card (Visa, Mastercard) or in cash. Depending on the rate booked, advance payment may be required (for example, for non-refundable rates).

No, pets are not allowed at the hotel; only certified guide or assistance dogs are permitted, free of charge and with prior notice.

Children of all ages are welcome; for booking purposes, children aged 13 and over are considered adults. Free cots are available for children under 2 years of age, on request and subject to availability. Maximum occupancy and bed configuration depend on the room category booked; regulations require the booking to state the exact number of guests and their ages, so children or babies who are not included in the confirmed booking cannot be added.

Due to the characteristics of the resort, which is made up of several separate buildings and bungalows set on natural terrain, the hotel does not have adapted rooms or step-free access throughout the communal areas. If you have reduced mobility or any special requirements, we recommend contacting us before booking: we will review your needs and let you know clearly whether we can provide you with a comfortable stay.

We provide pool and beach towels against a refundable deposit. Sun loungers and parasols are available on a first-come, first-served basis and must be left free when not in use; to ensure everyone’s comfort, reserving them with towels or personal belongings is not permitted. Staff may free up sun loungers that remain unoccupied for an extended period.

For dinner service in our restaurants, in keeping with hotel tradition and the preferences of most of our guests, a smart-casual dress code is required, with neat clothing and appropriate footwear. For breakfast and lunch, appropriate casual attire is acceptable.
