My wife and I recently had the pleasure of spending two unforgettable nights at Filao Beach Resort. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism by the incredible staff.
One of the highlights of our stay was the special private dinner they prepared for us. It was a truly exquisite culinary experience, and the attention to detail was remarkable. The ambiance was heightened with a beautifully decorated room, adorned with candles, which created a romantic atmosphere that we will cherish forever.
What truly stood out during our stay was the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that every moment of our visit was perfect. Their genuine smiles and willingness to assist with any request made us feel like cherished guests.
Filao Beach Resort is a hidden gem that we fell in love with. The tranquil surroundings, pristine beach, and the overall serenity of the resort provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. We cannot recommend this place enough.
Our heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Filao Beach Resort for making our stay truly magical. We look forward to returning in the future and creating more beautiful memories at this exceptional destination.
There is no restaurant. The WIFI did not function, the tv did not function. There was no hot water. The staff didn't respond to any issues just laughed. They could not even provide a receipt. I was over charged and am still seeking a refund and they tried to take money on arrival having said they had taken funds in advance. There were people walking around with 14 inch knives on their belts. The hotel forced guests to wear irremovable wrist bands as if Alzheimer patients. The local beach is unpleasant, which is rare for Zanzibar, which is full with beautiful beaches. There were a group of women sat outside my window all day neither guest nor staff. If you risk booking please be advised that this is a remote location, if there is no scope to go elsewhere you will be compelled to stay. There are many other wonderful establishments on this island catering for all manner of needs and pockets.

Its about and hour and a half from Zanzibar city.
Its about and hour and a half from Zanzibar city.
Nothing much around we found a local restaurant and a grocery about 20min driving from the place we stayed.
You get very small local restaurants on the way and small local shops which we didn't stop and have look.
People are friendly and helpful.
Get your own alcohol from Zanzibar its cheaper.
Don't carry alcohol from Tanzania to Zanzibar as its prohibited but you can buy it from Zanzibar.
Unlike Paje where you get hotels bars restaurants shopping and activities, Uroa is very quiet and mainly has beach hotels.

The hotel is a resort and has everything you could need. We don't bother going in to Uroa as there is no need. We come for the hotel not the nearby town. Beaches are lovely nd people generally very friendly.

The sea and the air in Uroa are just fantastic.
The sea and the air in Uroa are just fantastic. A small danger though - you can meet a jellyfish in the sea and get painfully stinged.
A small walk away one can also find some local shops and some fruit sellers with ripe pineapples and watermelons.. ..and you can buy local sightseeing or dolphin watching trips either right at the hotel or just in beach. Cold drinks are available right at the hotel. So a wonderful place for just a relaxation.. ..if you want to often visit Zanzibar City shops, market, nightlife and sights, then it might be just a bit far.
I would stay there any time again...

This is not a hotel, it's a house at the beach (!), run by a man that is manager, service personel and almost everything else (there are two maids that clean the rooms daily and cook the food).
If you're looking for an AirBnB-like atmosphere, this place is recommendable yet expensive. Uroa beach is not recommendable as there are much nicer ones in Zanzibar.

This hotel is very comfortable and the right one to relax...
This hotel is very comfortable and the right one to relax for a certain time. But there are two issues I did not appreciate very much. First, since the owner of this hotel is Italian and most of the guests are Italian, Italian language is dominating. As if it were natural the whole staff and even the hotel bus tour guide adresses you in Italian. This might give a familiar feeling to the most but not for everyone. Also the menue is rather concentrated on Italian food. This is not what I expected from a stay in Africa.
Second: Amazing is the white sand beach in front of the hotel area. Unfortunately the beach is mostly covered with sea grass. Sometimes they remove the grass to the edges of the hotel area but it comes back with the next high tide. As I was informed they use to bring it out to another place but this did not happen during my stay.
I've booked room at this hotel and one day before my arrival I've got a message via Booking saying that, there is a renovation and the hotel is relocating me an another hotel "which is just a few km away". The few km means that, across the bay is about 3-4 km, but on road is more than 40 km...at a totally different location.
Be careful with this hotel because even they said, there is a renovation, they still accepts booking to this facility.
At least I could cancel my reservation free of charge...but this is the minimum.
The hotel staff and manager were so hospitable and accommodating. The treatment is 5 star. Every request is seen to. We were so blessed to be here and to meet these exceptional people with the best hearts. The hotel is neat and clean and the WiFi is excellent. The manager arranges the transport and tours. Meshack the manager is on call all day and night and he and his staff have made memorable meals and bonfires even letting us use the kitchen. I'm going to miss them so much. This is the place to visit!!
Amazing hotel- we were a group of 6 people and all of us are fully satisfied.
We once had a problem with the water and the staff fixed it in 5 minutes- this is all the bad things I can say :D
The food at the restaurant is great, the staff is very polite and smiling, the rooms were cleaned every day and sprayed against insects. Overall the hotel is great- you wake up, open your door, pass through a frangipani and you are on the beach! Really amazing place for friends or for couples :)
Disclaimer! A 10 rating will probably never be had by me without paying a lot. So, i rate this a solid 7, which in my book, is good to really good.
Hosts were fantastic. Zanzibar was not what i was expecting, and Kau, Shany and Pilly really made my time there more enjoyable.
A/C! It's a must for northerners in the Zanzibar climate.
Food on demand.
Beds were hard. But, they were high-density foam of some sort. I liked the mattresses, but some may not.
The hotel was beautiful. Both swimming pools were amazing. The buffet restaurant was great, food was good, with lots of options at every meal. The breakfast in the a la carte restaurant was great too but only went there once as the service was very slow. The staff was very friendly. I kept missing the hotel activities even though there were plenty of them.
The rooms were confy, i liked how it was decorated.
This was my 4th stay at this hotel and everything is always top notch. Especially the hotel staff is obliging, nice and friendly to guests. I really wanted to appreciate the work of wonderful animators who make the hotel a pleasant place to rest in a good atmosphere. Abdul the animator is always happy to help guests and ensure a good atmosphere. I sincerely recommend! I will definitely come back there soon
Ali the reception manager was really professional. We had no request and idea what he could not have managed. He made our holiday memorable. The service of the staff of the restaurant (Eriely , setphano,chef manase,joshua) was also beyond our expectation. (Kambakocho restaurant). We had awesome massage treatments on 7 different days. We honestly offer this hotel for everyone.
Wonderful, peaceful place right on the beach, very clean and neat with private garden beach for the property, away from public beach and the bach boys. Pawe, the owner was most helpful in directing me for further exploration of Zanzibar. The staff was very nice and attentive but leaving just the right amount of privacy, not intrusive as is the case in so many hotels.

Our stay was wonderful at F-Zeen Hotel, the team and manager were very welcoming and made everything possible to make us feel like Home and enjoy our stay. It's very peaceful to watch the sea every morning directly from the hotel, you can walk along the beach, enjoy the pool, there is lots of space. AND food is SO GOOD!
Staff was exceptional, really great view and perfect hotel for a peaceful weekend. The breakfast was nice with fresh juice, fruits, eggs and toasts. The dinner served has a great choice and it's lovely to eat right on the ocean.
I can highly recommend it!
This is a quiet beach hotel on the beautiful beaches of Uroa. I got a nice, upgraded room and a very pleasant stay on a beautiful beach for a couple of days. The staff is super friendly and welcoming and I would certainly recommend staying here!
Beautiful B&B in a nice, little village. Nearby resorts offer great food and nightly shows. You’ll require a taxi to get to other parts of the island. Excellent place to stay to relax in Zanzibar!
My go-to place to stay in Uroa. The staff make this hotel fabulous. Can't wait to visit again. Everything is always great, facilities, food, atmosphere and environment.
