Lux Marijani Zanzibar

A very relaxing experience at LUX* Marijani! The massages at the spa were wonderful, and the peaceful surroundings made it easy to switch off and enjoy the holiday. We also loved spending time on the beach, where the staff surprised us with special treats These thoughtful gestures, combined with the warmth of the team and the beautiful tropical setting, made the experience feel special. A lovely place to recharge!

I had mixed feelings about my stay at LUX Marijani. There are definitely some lovely aspects to the hotel, and for most of my stay I thought the staff were fantastic — warm, friendly, attentive and genuinely welcoming. However, for a hotel positioned at this level, some of the facilities were disappointing. The gym is very small with limited equipment, and the pool is also quite small and feels dated compared with the rest of the property. The buffet was probably one of the biggest let-downs for me. I found the food quite repetitive and uninspiring, and after a few days it became boring. I would have expected much more variety and quality from a resort of this standard. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment came when I was leaving. As soon as it became apparent that I was checking out, the behaviour of some staff noticeably changed. There was a lot of lingering around while I was preparing to leave and it became uncomfortably obvious that a tip was being expected. I am more than happy to tip when someone has provided great service, but I don’t like feeling pressured into doing so. It actually made me question some of the wonderful service I’d experienced beforehand, because what had initially felt warm and genuine suddenly felt transactional. It’s a shame because there is a lot to like about LUX Marijani and I did have some genuinely lovely interactions with members of staff. With improvements to the buffet, gym and pool area — and a more discreet approach to tipping — the overall experience could be considerably better.
