Due to Corona things are still ultra quiet in Zanzibar, so Jemma gave us a free upgrade to her best rooms, right at the beach. Beautiful! Service was great, excursions were wonderful.Especially the 'blue safari' was a delight. I wish I was still there 😊

SĂ©jour de 9 jours Ă  Karamba Resort et on ne regrette absolument pas. Logement sans ĂȘtre luxueux bien suffisant pour venir se reposer des visites et activitĂ©s de journĂ©e et environnement merveilleux. Tout invite Ă  la relaxation donc pas d’activitĂ© festive le soir mais cela ne nous a pas manquĂ©. Personnel trĂšs aimable. La piscine est super aussi.
