The Palms was luxurious and relaxing. The accommodation was great, food was varied and good (although 4 course meals three times a day got a bit much toward the end of the week). They had some nice south african wines as well as a bar. The private banda on the beach was great and very relaxing. The staff were friendly... more

White Sandy Beaches....Beautiful, Large Villas, Crystal Blue swimming pool, attentive, professional staff and fabulous fresh food....WOW - what more can I say about The Palms!? We spent a fantastic 5 days at The Palms after Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda and Safari in the Mara - what a fabulous way to end a perfect vacation. The Palms is top notch, first... more

We stayed here for 5 nights as part of our honeymoon and loved it! Everything about this place is fantastic. The villas are lovely and each have a private banda on the beach which is great. The service is fantastic - so friendly and personal, they really couldn't do enough for you. The food was also excellent, the only criticism... more

I have traveled the world since I was young and never have I had such a great all around experience as at The Palms. I have stayed at the sister resort, Breezes and had high expectations. I was not disappointed. This is a luxury resort that has a high ratio of staff to guests. Every time I needed something someone... more

Some years ago, before Palms opened, I spent an enjoyable holiday at Breezes with friends and having since married, my husband always wanted to visit Zanzibar so we decided to spoil ourselves at Palms and we were not disappointed. From the time we arrived to the time we left the staff could not do enough for us. Our villas were... more

Our first experience in Africa I have to say, it was really fantastic. We kept our expectations broad to enjoy the whole experience based on a compilation of all the previous reviews we read. With clear comminication with the staff to look after what were minor details I feel we had a great experience. The Villas were beautifully decorated and... more

Having stayed at Breezes ( Palms sister resort located next door ) for the first week of our honeymoon and had an amazing time with great staff and service, upgrading to the €500 PP a night Palms luxury 5* villas for the final week , i have to say we were disappointed. Please note that this review takes into consideration... more

We got married at the Palms a few weeks ago, and have nothing but praise for the staff, the accommodation, the food, and how well the wedding day itself was organised. We had the Cinammon villa. It's beautifully furnished, with fabrics and furniture in perfect harmony with the tropical garden surroundings. Huge bathroom, beautiful bedroom, dressing room, all there. The... more

The service staff make this place. They are excellent and can not do enough to please. The food on the whole is good, though the same ingredients/leftovers keep re-appearing for days, which does get tiresome. The quality of the accomodation is by no means five star. The fittings and facilities are cheap and nowhere near the quality that one would... more
