Is TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar good for an all-inclusive family beach holiday?
Yes—TUI BLUE Bahari is one of the stronger all-round Kiwengwa resorts if you want multiple pools, five restaurants and both family and couple-friendly facilities in one beachfront property. The resort offers rooms and villas, pools and varied dining, with all-inclusive and half-board plans available.
It is especially useful for travellers who want variety without leaving the resort: Italian, Asian, seafood, grill and buffet dining are all available, while family facilities and quieter relaxation areas help different trip styles coexist.
Who should choose it?
Families: children’s pool, baby-pool areas and kids’ facilities make it practical.
Couples: relax-pool areas and seafood/Asian dining give adults quieter options.
All-inclusive travellers: multiple restaurants reduce the repetition common at smaller resorts.
Pools, rooms and beach
Dining
The resort currently lists five restaurants: The Restaurant for main buffets, Andiamo for Italian, Tastes of Asia, Green & Grill and Breeze for seafood. Three bars support the pool and beach areas. All-inclusive guests receive access to much of the dining programme, although selected premium experiences may carry an extra charge.
How we would book it
For a multi-night stay, all-inclusive makes more sense if you expect to spend most days on-property. Couples should compare room location relative to the relax pool, while families should prioritise easy access to the children’s and activity areas. On Zanzibar’s east coast, also remember that tidal movement affects the beach experience through the day.
Why we’d book it
- Strong restaurant variety.
- Three distinct pool areas.
- Family facilities without being purely a kids’ resort.
- Direct Kiwengwa beachfront setting.
Trade-offs
- Large resort atmosphere.
- East-coast tides change swimming conditions.
- Some premium dining or experiences may cost extra depending on plan.
