I spent 2 weeks in Zanzibar Tanzania & made this Travel video 👉 ua-cam.com/video/0yjLfmMDbIo/v-deo.html (you should check it out) Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 💪
Poor and sad mindset from the manager who refused you access to showcase their resort because you are not a European influencer. What makes them think Africans can not afford to visit their own continent? Keep grinding bro, Africa is rising👍
If I were you Steven since they said they only allow European influencers I probably wouldn’t have put their shit on my channel speaking about the Xanadu villas
@@DahliaCN there’s a difference between mentioning and promoting. He mentioned his negative experience but then went on to promote the company as a great option to stay, so my point still stands.
Interesting that Xanadu Villas only work with European content creators because black or African travellers are not their target market. OK is that because they think that black or African travellers can't afford to stay at their property? Anyway, I hope black or African travellers who CAN afford to pay those prices will take their money and business elsewhere since they are not the "target market". Go where you are welcomed and not where you are tolerated.
FACTS KING!!! Absolute facts. Do you know in the top 4 countries that Kenya receives visitors from, two are African (Tanzania and Uganda). And Kenya recently announced it would be doing more targeted campaigns in other African countries such as Ethiopia and Rwanda. A country that appreciates its homegrown African market. Yet a (probably foreign-owned) entity has the audacity to exclude Black Africans in their own motherland. What if Steven had been a Zanzibari content creator? Would they still exclude that person in their own land? Crazy but at least we now know where NOT to go!
Loving your comprehensive travel videos. Very sad the luxury hotel manager did not see the value of partnering with an African influencer. Another example of the effects of colonization. We support others more than our own. I hope they change their minds in the near future.
Zanzibar is stunning. Zuri and Xanadu are exquisite. Xanadu loses points for their lacklustre reception. The mentality that (White) Europeans/Americans are the only leisure tourists must fall. It's simply not true. We can't have such Colonial attitudes in 2023.
I will.boycott Xanadi villas. This is really unacceptable. A resort in Africa that undermines African Infleuncers. Was about to book a family trip from Hamburg to Zanzibar and was checking on exclusive hotels. No to Xanadu Villas Love from Germany
There are no 6 star resorts in Zanzibar. It’s unfortunate about Xanadu, it had been on my list of recommendations to my clients but I am taking it off the list now.
Why would I give my money to or promote a hotel whose I’m not on their target market? Especially a company in Africa who are not also targeting Africans.
@@yo-a totally! Was looking at this resort for vacation, but if they're baised against indigenous Africans then whats the point? Cant pay top dollar to be treated shabbily ! Africans take back your turf!
I live in Zanzibar and Im horrified that Xanadu would say they only work with European influencers and not African ones.. It's blatant RACISM!! I would NEVER give them the time of day after hearing that..(not to mention, ridiculously over priced) Nice video though and kudos for staying humble x
Why should I do the same? Because a couple idiots think that it is racism? Black people and those who want to be black are always playing the racism card. Get over it. I will double book and send you my itinerary.
Sending ❤❤❤ from Dallas, Texas! I’ve first heard about Zanzibar a couple of years ago on Instagram. No one explains African travel better than you Steven. Thanks again for another great and exciting video 😊❤️💋
I’ve visited Konokono before. My stay and every person who worked there was delightful. The property is beautiful. As for Xanadu, I would not spend one cent there because of how their management treated you. Let them get it from their target market. I will remember that very well if I am fortunate enough to return to Zanzibar.
I live in the United Kingdom, the Xanadu views on who should be reviewing their resort is absolutely vile, I will not be staying there. Keep up the good work, as your videos are the best.
Really enjoyed your video. I’m Zimbabwean living in UK but would never bother with Xanadu given their racist views. They don’t even deserve your shout out.
I like Zuri Zanzibar, but the inside is too dark and "cosy"... it needs to be white walls everywhere and it needs to be open plan. The balcony is perfect thou.
Was genuinely enjoying this video until you mentioned what the Xanadu Villas manager said about excluding Africans from partnerships. Really pissed me off. You're a better person than I am because I wouldn't have included them in this video. Definitely will steer clear of that establishment when I go later this year. And I encourage everyone black to do the same. What a disgrace to a beautiful island.
I will be in Zanzibar, Paje beach, on 01 June, for two weeks. Then our hotel is for poor people, was 5000€, 2 people, 2 weeks, all inclusive, Junior suite.
Like just like you know get the you know like language like correct like. You know like if like you know you are like advertising like impress you know speak like properly you know.
The way in which this video was put together is outstanding! Again Steve has done an excellent job. I would never give the Xanadu villas my time or money. I am in the U.S. and find it distasteful that they are in Africa, and cater to only advertising to European or other non-African foreign clients. Africa is a big continent and there are various people in Africa that can enjoy these amenities as well. I guess they are not only selling luxury, but also projecting luxurious western snobbish values. Sheesh Xanadu.. .... I mean show your home team or home base some love why don't you? Meaning Africa. Other than that all the other resorts are awesome 💜
Thank you so much for considering a holiday in Zanzibar! It will be our pleasure to take care of your transfers and excursions including safari. F&A Zanzibar 😊
Well done for your efforts, i must make a point as a pan Africanist ,most of these resorts are owned by white people, nothing wrong with that, but for a white owner to invest in the continent, he shouldn't discrimate in this continent, there is no difference between the colour of the shillings spent by African, Asian or Europeans of the financial class that they are marketing to. Now if they think your UA-cam target audience isn't their market thats a different thing.and you should tell us so. African youth,let this be a lesson, and motivation to own and build, and manage tourism assets in Africa and indeed other countries, liesure is not only for white people.
2024! Zanzibar is at the top of my bucket list! I hope they have a shooting range in Tanzania as well so I can tick 2 things of the list at the same time.

I am a Cameroonian living in Germany who watch your videos. The manager is nuts.
Boycott Xanadu Villas
Because most Black people are poor. It is obvious.
Exactly!!!
F xanadu, how you be in Africa and say yo target market is mainly Europeans, pretty sure what they mean is white Europeans.
If I were you Steven since they said they only allow European influencers I probably wouldn’t have put their shit on my channel speaking about the Xanadu villas
Oh well
Exactly, why would you promote a company who excludes yourself and your race.. and do so in your own continent?!
@@yo-a so that people who watch his travel videos will know where not to go because I definitely will not ever be going there! ❤

Nothing surprises me anymore. I will take my dollars elsewhere, as I am planning a second trip to Zanzibar in a few months.

Right !!!!
Are all these villas owned by Tanzanians or Africans ? We only want to visit places we know our money will stay in the country or continent of Africa
Unfortunately not, most are owned by Europeans
😂But you to, they said they dont need you and you are promoting their sh**t? Like seriously 🤷
You for leave out the ones way reject you. They no deserve your channel anf the free promo it will bring them.
☺️
A resort in an African country that doesn’t accommodate African influencers….that is nuts! 🤦🏾♀️😭
Ironical 😢as well...
SMH 🙄🙄🙄🙄

You must report them to the ministry of tourism
Exactly what I thought too. Sounds like racism
TERRIBLE!! BUT ...now we know, I will cancel our reservations there for DECEMBER, and everyone else should do the same!!
@@hassshoban8206exactly !!

I just got back from Zanzibar, it is truly beautiful the beaches are amazing. You really captured the beauty in this video.
Sending ❤❤❤ from Dallas, Texas! I’ve first heard about Zanzibar a couple of years ago on Instagram. No one explains African travel better than you Steven. Thanks again for another great and exciting video 😊❤️💋
How can I contact the tour guide? We're interested in his services. Thank you!
You can download the travel guide, his details are there
American here, sorry you had that experience with Xanadu. Honestly, they will not be getting any business from me because that is not the vibe.
I’ve visited Konokono before. My stay and every person who worked there was delightful. The property is beautiful.
As for Xanadu, I would not spend one cent there because of how their management treated you. Let them get it from their target market. I will remember that very well if I am fortunate enough to return to Zanzibar.
Money good ooo!
This is just one of the amazing places i have seen today on internet another moment to wow out, good job steven
The most expensive island and resort in tanzania is thanda island in the south near mafia mnemba comes second
that first resort we just looked at, is this 550 in USD? or in Zanzibar money? Just Curious. Thanks.
Zanzibar got Tanzanian Schilling. it's in USD.
I live in the United Kingdom, the Xanadu views on who should be reviewing their resort is absolutely vile, I will not be staying there. Keep up the good work, as your videos are the best.
Boss I one of your biggest fans
I have Ethiopian birr for sale but I am unable to see people to buy it
Boss help find who buys Ethiopia birr 🤲🏾🤲🏾
Is nonsense to tell people not to book with the local tour company….!!
it's for their safety
God when oh 😢😢😢...these resort are beautiful....I really want to be able to afford to travel 🫠🫠🫠
I ❤❤❤❤❤ Zanzibar..How u Can't Film Xanadu....all The Same..... Great Job.
Time for investing in Africa
Really enjoyed your video. I’m Zimbabwean living in UK but would never bother with Xanadu given their racist views. They don’t even deserve your shout out.
Hello travelers!
We will be glad to take care of your transfers and excursions including safari.
F&A Zanzibar 😊
I like Zuri Zanzibar, but the inside is too dark and "cosy"... it needs to be white walls everywhere and it needs to be open plan. The balcony is perfect thou.
Where did you travel from? Did you have to get any vaccines before traveling there?
No I did not
No he didn't say, "privacy while your fucking". OMG
I guess we crossed path still here in Zanzibar
Keep Going Steve 💪🏽💪🏽
this video shows that folks would pay top dollars for some privacy :)
How about a clear kayak drone photoshoot with us ?
Was genuinely enjoying this video until you mentioned what the Xanadu Villas manager said about excluding Africans from partnerships. Really pissed me off.

Definitely will steer clear of that establishment when I go later this year. And I encourage everyone black to do the same. What a disgrace to a beautiful island.
If you happened to be a white south african or an arab north african would their viewpoint change?? Most likely. Kudos to you for staying positive 😎
I'm SOLD on Zanzibar. It's definitely on my bucketlist for a "when I'm getting sick if winter" getaway destination.
I will be in Zanzibar, Paje beach, on 01 June, for two weeks.
Then our hotel is for poor people, was 5000€, 2 people, 2 weeks, all inclusive, Junior suite.
