🇹🇿 Zanzibar Review: Park Hyatt Stone Town + The Mora Nungwi

💡 Verdict "Post-safari? Skip it. Not safari-ing? Definitely skip." 🙅♀️ 🏨 Park Hyatt Stone Town 📍 Location & Safety Switched last-minute from a "charming" old-town guesthouse—dark alleys + aggressive touts at night = instant regret. Park Hyatt’s beachfront location = safety upgrade (though Stone Town itself feels like a crumbling Shanghai Tianzifang). 👍 Pros Sea-view balcony & solid Hyatt service. Hidden gem: Pagoda Chinese Restaurant (authentic flavors!). 👎 Cons Stone Town fatigue: Pushy vendors, scammy night market (¥300 for skewers?!). "Cultural charm" = 2hrs max. 🌊 The Mora Zanzibar (Nungwi) 🏖️ First Impressions Overhyped: Shared beach, no bathtubs in standard rooms. Crowded & mediocre: Like a 3-star resort with 5-star pricing. 😤 Dealbreakers AC + balcony = mortal enemies (why??). SPA scandal: 90min massage magically shrank to 60min—cue staff gaslighting 💢. 🐬 Activity Highlight Dolphin tour with Chinese guide: Lifesaver after Stone Town stress! Reality check: Free-diving with dolphins = Olympic-level cardio (they’re fast). 🌍 Final Thoughts Safari exhaustion + Zanzibar chaos = no synergy. For beach purists: Same budget buys better service in Seychelles/Maldives. #ZanzibarTruthBomb #ParkHyattOrPass #TheMoraMeh
