Delicious Local Cuisine

“During my stay at Promised Land Lodge, I was thoroughly impressed with the delicious food options. I recommend trying the local dishes, which were mouth-watering and diverse. Pre-ordering dinner by 5 PM was a great tip, ensuring that I never had to wait long for my meals during dinner service. The lunch and dinner menu had a great variety, although I found myself yearning for more traditional Zanzibarian food as I went through the days.” view full review

Stylish and Comfortable Room

“My room at Promised Land Lodge was a true highlight of my stay. It was well-appointed with stylish minimalism and featured a comfortable, new bed with crisp white sheets. The room design embraced local building traditions, allowing for natural ventilation with screen sections that let in the sea breeze. I particularly enjoyed relaxing on the balcony with a lovely view of the sea, where I could hear the soothing sounds of waves throughout the night.” view full review

Perfect Relaxation Spots

“One of my favorite aspects of the lodge was the various leisure spots available for relaxation. I found many artistic elements scattered around the grounds, providing good nooks to unwind. There were swinging beds, hammocks, and plenty of lounge chairs available both in the sun and shade. The lovely pool was a wonderful way to cool off, and I really enjoyed the overall relaxing atmosphere that the lodge offered.” view full review

Comfortable and Spacious

“The bedroom I stayed in was not only spacious but also extremely comfortable. The design was in line with the overall aesthetic of the lodge, which was a charming blend of local traditions. Notably, there were fans to circulate air instead of air-conditioning, which suited me well as the natural sea breeze helped keep the ambiance cool. Overall, the space was thoughtfully arranged and provided a peaceful escape that enhanced my stay.” view full review
