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 😊

Séjour de 9 jours à Karamba Resort et on ne regrette absolument pas. Logement sans être luxueux bien suffisant pour venir se reposer des visites et activités de journée et environnement merveilleux. Tout invite à la relaxation donc pas d’activité festive le soir mais cela ne nous a pas manqué. Personnel très aimable. La piscine est super aussi.
