Essque Zalu Zanzibar (Tanzania): impressions & review

[@PaulHummerman]

Bravo! - the 12 minute continuous handheld footage is extremely well done - not easy in a relatively crowded complex space, and you keep the horizon horizontal! The pacing is perfect.

[@mattman237]

I keep telling myself I don't have 40 minutes to watch a walk-thru of a luxury hotel I'll never visit, yet here I am, week after week, haha.

[@anyu]

Matt Man Just watching is refreshing honestly. I tune everything out, take it the sights and sounds, and at journey's end I haven't emptied my wallet and feel somehow refreshed.

[@leahm1883]

You should visit it. It's the most amazing place I've seen on this earth.

[@gellidanielle3931]

Matt Man same 😂😌

[@chikemsaid6526]

Matt Man you don't have to stay at expensive Hotels all the time you can find really cheap local b&b and book few days on luxury one's ..but Nungwi coast has more beautiful places and beautiful sand...check on Booking.com

[@fideliangelatsitsi6626]

Same here,I said : 40 mins??? Nah!And yet I've watched it on my own,rewind it for my husband, watched it with him...I pity myself 😥

[@enriqueali]

It's all about that soaring interior space under the roof, and the amazing Indian Ocean views

[@jogratitude1908]

Been there 2016. Time flies ! Will return some day soon

[@annivali4356]

Oh, the brown leather chairs in the lobby! 😍 The decor is absolutely on point. Very nice African touches. You know you're in Africa. 😊

[@gy3940]

This is one of the most beautiful resorts I've ever seen in this channel. I love this place a lot. I wish I could go there.

[@MwishaLudack]

Excellent review. I've had more fun than before. My favourite Indian ocean island is Mauritius, I'm going there in summer this year. Keep on filming and reviewing these islands and hotels and places and planes and excursions and resorts. It's all exciting viewed on your channel. Have all the fun you can!

[@aehrr4247]

Wow! That place is breathtaking! Cheers to another great video!

[@matthewkluge5441]

I have to say that I really enjoyed the difference between low and high tide . Enjoyed the production .

[@Apex1337]

I am glued 🤣 to your channel. Its like eye candy 🍬 for the Soul 👌💯

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Wow! This is quite a film. I agree with your analogy of the Sydney Opera House and this building. And yes, I agree that the interior is particularly beautiful. I love the low tide images from the pier. Stunning footage. Thank you for the video. I feel very inspired!

[@michyan82]

I sort of chuckle at those guests glued to their smartphones being surrounded by beautiful ocean.

[@mbaitzer1]

I know! I can’t believe it!

[@karlalvam]

Excellent walk through and your choice of music is so relaxing, thank you.

[@Just_Jelle]

Beautiful video! Very informative. Thank you for sharing! Now I’m even more excited about our stay in a few months!

[@mtkaren]

We were just here a few weeks ago!! STUNNING and wonderful. I want to go back so bad.

[@davidwolf226]

A quiet, beautiful resort of understated elegance. Appears to be a very relaxing location, not to mention the beautiful turquoise water.

[@tajinderkaur1145]

You are doing a very good job. Because being an old lady aged 62 i can not reach all places which you are showing in your programmes. I am really thankful to you people.

[@isisheggs8065]

Your videos are well thought out and very knowledgeable thanks!!! You be chilling

[@terrymike7524]

I always like the videos you make and the music is as beautiful as the scenery, a great combination! Also, when you review airline flights, I am a window person too so the views of our earth are even more spectacular. Keep up your channel, it is so enjoyable. Hint, I use Bose QC-35 headphones and it really enhances those instrumentals.

[@MsKestrela]

Interesting resort this time out. I can't decide if I like the rusticity mixed with elegance, or not. But, as always, a wonderful, comprehensive and relaxing video!

[@esmeesme7666]

Another zen evening watching your videos. I just hope there is enough fire suppression installed in that immense lobby. Have fun on your next adventure.

[@choyos7543]

Another one for the bucket list!!!

[@relaxing1260]

am happy to see you has already came to my country .

[@ultranviol]

Now i call the color of white-sand-ocean-sky "zanzibar", my favourite color since i watched your videos 😍

[@mathursuvrat]

The music piece that starts at 10:30 ... can you help me with its name ... it was beautiful ... it kinda enhanced the coverage in its duration

[@Laterbb]

I absolutely love your videos! I love to put a few on at night time to help me relax before bed💜

[@jkbutnotreally]

Excellent video. Your camera work has improved even more and the long 12min sequence was beautiful. I'd like to see some more attention to detail to the food items and a bit more info about the dining experience in general, be it breakfast, lunch or dinner.

[@luxurytravelexpert]

Next week, in my &Beyond Mnemba Island clip, I will show the menu :)

[@lynnemorris7516]

Arn't you so lucky to see all this beauty , thankyou for showing us all .

[@margarymar3910]

I like the music. Where can i Find it.? Your travells are amazing

[@ianhamilton396]

WOWZERS ! Extraordinary again. If one can make a request though, please include a description of your menu choices and/or to film the actual menu. Beautiful scenery and the tidal aspect of the resort is very interesting. I suppose the lack of beach is the reason for the stunning pools. Thank you.

[@karenlabianca]

Spectacular! The pool is my favorite!

[@francecote9154]

Wow...the pool is stunning with the view on the see... A very beautiful place... You know what! I'm always looking every place on my cellphone because I dont have computer... It's ok and it's my méditation every Sunday afternoon... I have to Say thank you because I can dream...have a good Day...❤️🌹🌈

[@rosepelzel4244]

Lovely, open, sedate...... BTW: couldn't that roof line qualify for mountains?? All the best.

[@CRISONELOVE]

Master piece video, just perfect ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Mustafiz1972]

Great video (as always). A small error, though: Qatar Airways and Oman Air have scheduled flights to Zanzibar too.

[@luxurytravelexpert]

I know. But when you are from Europe, like me, then flying with Qatar Airways or Oman Air to Zanzibar is a detour.

[@sayittomyfaceidareyou8629]

My favorite is the Maldives. Dude I love your life.

[@edithlightman9250]

Wonderful place thanks for sharing...hope to visit someday....just wow....

[@transleninvestment1335]

Thank you so much for your wonderful guidance Asantee

[@watchulla]

OMG!! I am freaking out over the night views so pretty.!!!

[@debralavoie9095]

[@davidbartonjr]

[@lilianmaggiolo9556]

Disfruto tus videos!!! En este caso el hotel fue sorprendente en todos su detalles.

[@TAPPChannel]

beautiful place to escape!!! Nice

[@SandraNelson063]

I would want to spend all my time just lying in the surf. Or beachcombing. This is another one of those lovely places to go just to calm the heck down. That big roof over the lobby is great for drawing off the heat and helping circulate cool air.

[@luxurytravelexpert]

Thank you, Sandra, for your nice comment, as always :)

[@karinav.3873]

Excelentes tus videos! Saludos desde Buenos Aires Argentina!

[@mariancounsellor]

I would need a bath to be in the villa and a proper beach for me to book this place but it has stunningly beautiful scenery and I would definitely visit that restaurant on the jetty 👍🏽

[@vhinsagcal207]

Wowwwww! What a nice Super beautiful beach resort in Zanzibar (Tanzania) my dream travel Vacation for my family thank u so much for your nice excellent wonderful video Godbless 🙏🙂👍🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🙏🙏🙏👏👏😍😍😍😍💖💖 from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Vhin

[@whatsupsweden]

I get that this is about luxury travel, but it's not that hard to get to the island. The African airlines are just fine. Especially Kenya Airways. There is a ferry from Dar Es Salaam that takes about an hour and a half, it's a high speed ferry and I can recommend taking it because you may even see dolphins on the way. It's very possible to travel to Zanzibar on a budget too.

[@missglamourous2485]

Hello I’m interested about he ferry

[@whatsupsweden]

@@missglamourous2485 Nice! Azam Ferries depart from the port in Dar Es Salaam. You can buy your ticket from the official ticket office there. If you are not a resident, it should be somewhere around $30 for the cheapest ticket.

[@janawaw8437]

Thank you-after seeing your videos, I always see the world more beautiful ! I love you :-)

[@jordannelson4898]

Omg this looks amazing, you’re so lucky!! 😍💜

Jordan Nelson I was born their 🇹🇿

[@Geoffreyboucher]

I took my parents here in December 2019 happy days and I beautiful resort ❤❤❤❤❤peace and happiness LTE

[@NayNayof68]

From all the research I have done, I would say Seychelles, Maldives, then here. I have also added Vietnam to my list. I’ll probably never get to go, I’ve waited to long, but maybe I’ll get a miracle!

[@dianaeggen2434]

I mentally travel with you all the time but this isn't tripping my wow button great video on your part though

[@parimal7528]

1. Mauritius, 2. Seychelles & Maldives. Btw, India's Lakshadweep islands, Andaman & Nicobar islands are very beautiful too. Please do visit them as well.

[@geoffreyboucher7068]

Going here today..

[@man7j]

[@atulabraham]

[@максимГера-э6п]

СПАСИБО БОЛЬШОЕ!!!!!

[@Corrosionchemist]

At 3’ 15” in the video you mention “VIP benefits from Classic Travel”. How is this tour company different from the service you normally recommend, I.e., Virtuoso? Is Classic Travel a competitor to Virtuoso or what? Thank you.

[@luxurytravelexpert]

Classic Travel is a Virtuoso agency that has also negotiated some perks with non-Virtuoso hotels, such as Essque Zalu Zanzibar

[@DrifterST]

The classic travel link does not work

[@sorsara78]

will you be staying at lodges in the serengeti in tanzania?

[@kallyhussein7353]

Maldives is my favourite

[@darknessjolly9663]

Amazing omg cool

[@inayathkhan100]

No, it's my hobby ;-)

[@blumenmaedchen115]

[@Corrosionchemist]

One more question: Are visitors recommended to take an anti-malaria pill such as malarone? Or is malaria not a problem on Zanzibar?

[@luxurytravelexpert]

Malaria risk on Zanzibar is low but it's still a risk. I did take Malarone. I recommend to check the travel advise on the website for the CDC.

[@kingkon164]

The music, 💪💪💪

[@Sara-sh7xy]

My dream is to travel here and many other places

[@wilsonlauws7783]

how does the villa look like?

[@slonisis]

when should I go to Zanzibar to have such beautiful weather?

[@luxurytravelexpert]

I published a travel guide to Zanzibar and Tanzania on my blog: theluxurytravelexpert.com/tanzania/. The best time to visit Tanzania is during the long dry period (June to October) or the short dry season (January & February).

[@sharonwilkins3583]

Do they have airport transfer and tour desk if you want explore town

[@paradonym]

I don't know why, but low tide views in this scenario are a bit weird... Everything so perfect, then - low tide moss and dirt... That must be cheaper night prices when tides are low at prime swimming time.

[@kristine6996]

Alleen maar liefde is. Dat is alles. 👸🏻🤦‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@karinav.3873]

Seychelles es mi favorita! Como viajar desde Buenos Aires,?

[@thelegleg1]

What are the prices? ?

[@luxurytravelexpert]

Depends on room type and the season

PERFECT PERFECT

[@robyoungquist5803]

Each day that I grow older, I grow in my appreciation for simple understated beauty and silence. 😉. Perhaps it’s because of my busy pediatric practice ... especially now so with the flu epidemic here in America.

[@franceselainethurston1606]

This is not up to par as the rest of what you took us to see.

[@richardmckrell4899]

Low tide looks disgusting, I'd pass on this place.

[@janot8198]

[@atakanturkylmaz3664]

its nice hotel but not that so cool place where is the beach ? location dosent mean everythink..sorry..but i like your videos good work..

[@yukiyu6241]

[@akneemoose3383]

Zanzibar is becoming trashy. They need an overhaul...reminds me of the Bahamas. Staff were not 5 star

[@barbarahoward5565]

Seychelles is the best!!!!

[@luxurytravelexpert]

I agree ☝️
