Jambiani hotellia

Plussat: Polite staff, beach bungalow view, tasty food, internet was normal, it's a place for total get away.

Miinukset: All days same and poor breakfast, expensive food in restaurant and quite slow service. Check out extra charge (some government fee) 1$ per person, per day, which was not announced anywhere. Too much water grass at the beach and in the water, not much to do outside the hotel, behind beach line is small local (too local) village.

Plussat: Locaton

Miinukset: Or reduce prices, or to improve services/facilitates

Plussat: Great location and setting right on the beach. Nice staff and good food (dinner). We can really recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: The bungalows right at the beach had a great location, but need som refurbising.

Plussat: Bungallow right at the ocean. Great view. Nice quiet place.

Plussat: One staff member was very warm and inviting which made up for the lack of enthusiasm from the rest of them...

Miinukset: The cats prowling around whilst we were eating, the breakfast was not good at all, I kept hoping there’d be something different/more of a selection every morning.

Plussat: Located right by the beautiful beach. Staff was friendly. It's a little bit rustic so keep that in mind when booking

Plussat: Amazing place. Bungalow right by the pool. And the hotel right by the beach. Really good food and very pleassant staff. The rooms were big and cosy.

Miinukset: The bees joining us every breakfast. The long wait for the food especially in the evening.

Plussat: Staff is friendly.

Miinukset: This is not a four star hotel. No matter what anyone says. Also, breakfast is disappointing. Everyday the same basic food. There is not much choice.

Plussat: Very nice place with ocean view, comfortable, stylish bungalows, very good food, convenient swimming pool and awesome chilling zone.

Miinukset: Nothing. Everything was perfect.

Plussat: A lot of spot to relax, very clean swimpool with shower next to it. Friendly staff. Transfer from/at the airport. Delicious lunch and dinner. All and all hakuna matata :-D

Miinukset: Our room was very hot. We need to ask for additional fan. Then was almost ok. Power lost time to time = none of fan working. Moskitiers should be replaced by new one.

Plussat: We stayed one night. The check in was smooth and the staff were very friendly. The welcome drink was a nice touch. The room was very spacious with 2 large beds, a spacious bathroom and a generous verandah. The compound of the property is spacious. The complimentary breakfast was good. The rear of the property opens to the beach. They have provided a lot is sitting provisions so that you can laze around enjoying the breeze. The pizza we ordered as well as the other food items were very good. Overall a pleasant experience staying there.

Miinukset: Nothing really.

Plussat: We enjoyed the stay, the room was comfortable and food was great! There are plenty of spaces to relax and read in the guesthouse. We asked for spice tour which was very easy to organize too. GH Dogs are very friendly too :)

Miinukset: The only thing may be the location which is just in middle of Paje and Jambiyani so it takes a while to go to either town - but that's why it's very quiet so we didn't mind.

Plussat: Great friendly stuff , big superclean apartment and bathroom also. The outdoor area is superb and the best one we ever seen. The pool is clean, lot of sunbeds hang on ropes, hammocks, rest corners with sofas, very nice outdoor shower. Absolutly stress free outdoor area with huge relax to take there. Very tasty breakfast with fruit (banana, pinaple, watermelon, orange), than eggs (to choose between boiled egg, omelette or spanish eggs with vegetables) with toast and sausage or beans, than pancake with jam or peanut butter. All served continuously. To drink fresh fruit mixed juice, coffee, tea and milk.

Miinukset: Just hard to entrance the sea because of rocks inside. Maybe to make some small wooden bridge above the rocks will help. But after short beach walk there is possible to entry the water and swimm.

Plussat: Everything else was ok.Staff very friendly. We feel there like at home and deffinately we will be back.

Miinukset: Maybe they should have breakfast until 10:30

Plussat: Good view from the second floor. Big room. Peaceful place with swimming pool. No impudent beachboys. Low tide is that is minus and neanwhile is great picture.

Miinukset: A little bit far from the center, shops and restaurants. It would be good to put a small fridge in the room to have cold water or beer. Wi-Fi is only in bar area

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: This hotel is a disaster!!! Stay away from it. The rooms are dirty, dark, smelling terrible and there are a lot bugs inside :(

Plussat: Breakfast is every day the same - we stayed 5 nights and it is horrible eat the same every day..Restaurant is very expensive, we didnt eat there much, 1,5 km are a way better restaurants and half price. Accomodation is very nature we had a lot of bugs and moscito there. Unfortunatly in moscito net were holes and nights were crazy busy to kill it.

Plussat: Nicely furnished spacious villa located right in front of the beach with amazing ocean view. Cleaning service daily, nice pool. Good wifi connection, which is not so usual in the area. Nice selection of trips on offer.

Miinukset: We did not mind much, but someone might dislike quite a lot of seeweed on the beach during the low tide period (the tides are quite big). Breakfast tasty, though the selection quite modest compared to other facilities within the similar price range.

Plussat: The room was very specious and nice

Miinukset: We had to walk to get food but wasnt informed about it

Plussat: The staff were very lovely and helpful made our stay pleasant The food was tasty and the restaurant staff are very helpful and lovely All facilities were clean including the villa and the restaurant Good views was like paradise! Great place to go with familys, group of friends or couples as it's not too crowded and feels private. Beds were very comfy and toilets were lovely and clean that provided toiletries. Overall we all enjoyed our stay at villa kahawiya and would more likely come back in the future!

Miinukset: I wish when you book for stay in this villa, wish there was options on picking which villa you wanted to stay at. Or get a confirmation email on which location of the villa you will be staying. ABecause there are 3 locations on these villas, but all near by. The middle villa is the only one with a resturant others didnt so you had to take a short walk to the middle restaurant.

Plussat: Very nice villas - great service from all the staff. They made my stay so easy and looked out for me in every step!! They even insisted on making me an aloe vera cream to take home with me for my sunburn!! Will definitely be back.

Plussat: The villa was amazing and very clean. Everything is like on the pictures. The staff was very nice too and everything was perfect. There are a lot of good restaurants nearby. I would definitely recommend the 3 bedroom villa.

Miinukset: The beach is unfortunately not that beautiful (Seagras) and the ocean not that perfect to swim because of the tide but that’s not the hotels fault. However, I would definitely come again! :)

Plussat: The rooms are spacious and light, and the whole property is kept very clean. The hotel staff was very attentive and helpful and gave me great advice on the best tours and restaurants nearby. Life can't get any better when you are watching the sunrise from the rooftop terrace. I would like to go back to Jambiani next time. Two days was not enough.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: Wonderfully spacious rooms with great selection of pools in a tranquil area. Morning and evening turndown service was great too.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: The villa was very well equipped and clean. Rooms were spacious and the view was magnificent. Fridge and safe worked well. Two pools almost to ourselves. Excellent breakfast and good food overall.

Miinukset: It was an awkward walk to the restaurant when the tide was high and it was dark. Not a major problem but we never had to do it in a downpour

Plussat: Apartments are very spacious and clean and is a perfect solution when traveling with family, situated right by the beach and the view is breathtaking. We loved the bbq night, amazing food combined with the local live music is a great way to end the day. Jambiani is the place to go when you want to have a quiet, safe and relaxing vacation.

Miinukset: We had some problems with the air conditioner in our villa, but the staff reacted right away and got it fixed very quickly during the time we had our lunch.

Plussat: While I hope people continue to ignore the remote beauty of Jambiani, the villas are a hidden treasure for those seeking secluded comfort. The staff should be paid even more as they offered exemplary service always offering a power adaptor or a Spanish omelette or recommendations for fishing. The chef even friend the fish I caught earlier in the day. The suites are quite spacious and comfortable. The pool the perfect way to end a day. I absolutely will stay here every year when I’m Zanzibar.

Miinukset: Even though I can’t think of anything I dislike, travelers should be aware Jambiani is a quiet, secluded fishing village and a solid 60-75 minutes from the airport. Taxi will cost $60-75 but the location and serenrity is so worth it.

Plussat: Me and my partner stayed for 5 night, a bit short because the place is very beautiful. The staff is very friendly and the restaurant of the hotel has very tasty food. The manager of the villa always helped us with all our requests and the cleaning was impeccable.

Miinukset: The food menu a bit short but the food very tasty, we tried everything.

Plussat: Nur Beach Hotel is extraordinary. People are very nice, the rooms are cleaned, the bed sheets were changed every day. the place is very quite and relaxing. The swimming pool is extraordinary. You feel like in paradise

Miinukset: AC needed in rooms

Plussat: Good breakfast. Fantastic veranda overlooking the pool and beautiful seaviews. The property is very comfortable, except for the heat in the bungalows. It feels like the architect forgot to put in a rear opening for a draft, which would probably help with the situation, as there isn't any AC. We didn't sleep well. They were kind enough to move us to the bungalow nearest to the beach with direct wind from the sea, and this helped. Helpful staff. Nice pool.

Miinukset: Heat in bungalows. High concrete wall.

Plussat: This place is absolutely amazing. The staff are the sweetest and most attentive you could find. Always ready to help and so friendly. The food was delicious! We tried many things off the menu and they were all super tasty. Reasonably priced and really good portions too. The rooms were a perfect size and super clean. The little porch area they have for each little bungalow is really relaxing to just sit and chill. It’s the most beautiful pool I’ve ever seen and it’s really clean. Overall this place has been so much better than our expectations. A great place to wind down and completely relax. And to finish it off the views are spectacular. We really hope we can visit again soon. Thank you so much!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: This place was the highlight of our holiday. A beach hut a stone throw away from the beach. Breakfast was very tasty, the staff very nice. If you are looking for peaceful and relaxing, look no further.

Miinukset: The coconut soup. I would take it off the menu, it was not edible.

Plussat: Resort was really nice with only 10 bungalow which was really great. lots of restaurants just down the beach which was great.

Miinukset: Was quite hot in the room at night as there is only a fan. But then again it was the hottest time of the year :-)

Plussat: Service, quietness, pool, close to beach, food

Miinukset: No mini fridges in rooms, no air con, just fans (not enough when there is 28°C in the nigh)

Plussat: Swimming pool

Miinukset: No A/C

Plussat: Nice and friendly staff. Nice swimming pool and beach near by.

Miinukset: Toilet in the room just behind the curtain, not really comfortable. No AC in the room is a big challenge.

Miinukset: Not a good beach, didn't enjoy much. It didn't really look like a 4star hotel, no fridge, WiFi, and hair dryers in the room...

Plussat: Breakfast is very good. Jetty Bar is very nice with a wonderful view. Location is good.

Miinukset: Outdated, the rooms are outdated, old furniture and no very well maintained gardens. The swimming pool is nice but the maintenance doesn’t clean it. For much better price try next door (Fun Beach Hotel), a brand new one with 3 huge great swimming pools, wonderful rooms and great restaurant.

Plussat: Breakfast was amazing, plenty of choice. The jetty was unforgettable along with the colours of the ocean. Watching the moon rise... I will never forget our stay here.

Miinukset: The wifi liked to drop, but if you are going to a tropical island you shouldn't be needing the internet 24/7 anyway.

Plussat: The facility could accommodate 200 more people but doesn't. It gives you the feeling of having the place to yourself.

Plussat: Great location, nice room and friendly staff.

Plussat: All the staff were extremely happy and welcoming. They even taught us some Swahili and encouraged us to speak the language. The jetty to the sea was wonderful. We enjoyed that each night for food, the options were different. The whole place was very clean.

Miinukset: Sknorling tour. We went at 3pm and wanted to see starfish. We ended up being stung multiple times by small jellyfish and therefore we were only in the water for for 10 minutes. Also could include a recycling bin for the plastic water bottles in each room or around the resort.

Plussat: The staff is amazing. Great place! Definitely coming back

Plussat: The restaurant and the staff working there only

Miinukset: We had spiders and cockroaches in the room. Both toilets bowls where blocked and never fixed even after complaining. Very very rude receptionist (white fat women). They gave us a room in the end of the resort thou they had empty rooms everywhere and when we asked why they said because you have a low fair. Sea is full of sea weed which was unusable. And way more....

Plussat: The sand the sea the sun

Miinukset: The prices of the lunch/dinner are very high and I don't understand why you don't offer local dishes. The service of the staff in the last days has been different and not professional, no guest no service. There is a lot of work to do for improveing the business.

Plussat: We felt from the beginning very welcome. The stuff is really friendly,heartwarming and polite. Everybody gives you the feeling that they help you where ever they can.The food is very tasty and made with love,even the view at the restaurant is stunning.You feel like in Paradise.The area and the rooms are comfortable and very clean,also the view in the beautiful garden at day and night is really romantic. We were two couples and we enjoyed our stay definitly.We will come back for sure and we can really recommand this accomodation. We came as guests and left as friends. Asante sana and Badai Rebecca and Madeleine

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: So glad fate brought me to this place! Yet another ‘home away from home’ to add to my repertoire of extensive travel locations. I spent two nights here before the chaos of the fabulous SZB music festival in Stone Town ensued; and let me tell you what, I’m so glad I did. Super chill, right on the beach (private), comfortable, calming sounds of birds chirping vibes. My room (basic double) was clean and comfortable. A supersonic fan helped keep the room cool. They also have ocean view rooms so ask for those as they were all booked when I got here. The grounds are well maintained and there’s lots of spots to relax ala hammocks etc. The staff is fantastic! Professional, friendly and very kind. Zanzibari owned by the nicest guy who totally became the homie. (from previous reviews seems it’s a great thing there’s new management!). As a solo traveler it can sometimes get boring if you don’t connect with other guests (mostly couples here) but I felt no such thing thanks to the staff. It was late nights filled with great conversations and insane amounts of laughter. Awesome bar situation overlooking the glorious Indian Ocean. Breakfast was delicious! Other meals could use slight improvement but overall a great dining experience. Thanks for the incredible hospitality Zanzest crew! I can’t wait to be back again and again and again.

Miinukset: Really rubbed in the fact that I don’t live in enchanting Zanzibar

Plussat: I've spent 13 nights in the hotel and it was a very pleasant experience. The rooms were simple, but always tidy and clean, the beds were made with love and decorated with fresh flowers. The whole area is well kept and super clean. The breakfast was nice and the restaurant very delicious. There are just a few dishes in the menu, but very delicious ones and they were always open for extra wishes. The veggie curry cooked by Abuu was the best. They dealt very professionally with any problem and tried to satisfy everyone. I've chosen the location because it's not in a touristic centre, the beach is small and empty and there is none who wants to sell you something. But for getting somewhere it is needed to take a taxi or a Dalla Dalla. I've loved the location so I could relax. I really hope to come back! Thank you to everyone for everything.

Plussat: Very calm place, an outstanding view. The hotel is small and local. That gives an extra charme!

Miinukset: Everything was perfect, we had a great time.

Miinukset: Very nice staff, decent food, nothing special. Good location.

Plussat: We come the second time, because we loved Zanzest so much. Its a beautiful small hotel, with spacious comfy rooms. The staff is super friendly and will make you smile. Especially after the change of Management you can see the difference. The breakfast ist delicious and freshly made. Fruit platter, fresh juice and a choice of eggs or pancakes will satisfy you. Its typical Zanzibar breakfast. We ate Lunch and Dinner as well and its been super delicious as well and the price is worth it. All in all its a beautiful place direct on the quite beach not far from other attractions. The staff can help you with Transport and Tours and will try to let you feel at home. If you look for a quite beautiful area where you can truly relaxe and enjoying good food: you are right here. Asante sana!

Plussat: Very nice place, supercozy and the entre is great and the bungalows was very nice and clean. Restaurant and bar was excellent with a beautiful view right on top of a small beach. I had one of my best curry dishes ever. Fantastic staff who all are supernice! Well done

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing

Plussat: The place has a private beach located in between notched shore rocks. It is quite with white sands and a magnificent view of the sea with the tones of blue from dark blue through turquoise to white. Breakfast is generous; large portions of fruits are served with a freshly squeezed fruit juice followed by eggs cooked in various ways (fried, boiled, omelette ....) with toasted bread or local chapati. If you do not want to see the disturbing poverty of the local people just next to your place by the paradise beaches of Zanzibar choose a place like this. The place is highly green with full of trees and flowers so that you can enjoy your terrace with nice garden or see view. The staff is very friendly and helpful and clean the rooms every days.

Miinukset: All good

Plussat: We've done some traveling around the world and that was one of the best hotels we have been so far. The great facilities, friendly and professional staff and the great variety of extra services make the Mwezi Resort one of a kind.

Plussat: Beautiful property and rooms - all super stylish. Staff were friendly, if a little over keen to check everything was ok. Food was good. Use of glass bottles instead of plastic is great.

Miinukset: Lack of air conditioning left the rooms very hot (hotter than outside) and the fan did not operate at full speed. The rooms were quite dark with minimal lighting in the rooms.

Plussat: lovely decor, lovely staff, clean and comfortable. the food was amazing, and a great breakfast. The final bill was not expensive.

Miinukset: There's not a lot around so its not somewhere you can base yourself and explore. The room, though several lamps, was just a little dark!

Plussat: pool

Miinukset: More fans and USB charging ports would have been helpful.

Plussat: Great decoration, very friendly staff, several very comfortable lounge places, great restaurant area and excellent food. Superb pool. Would definitively recommend this place.

Plussat: Great location. Great services. Helpful and friendly staff.

Plussat: Exceptional garden located on the beach, rooms and restaurant with local touch, rich breakfast with fruits and juice, very helpful staff.

Miinukset: Wi-fi can be better

Plussat: The staff is very welcoming and friendly! It felt like being part of a family instead of a simple guest.

Plussat: This place is amazing! The staff is friendly, so nice and open to the needs of customers. They offered us upgrade of rooms for free of charge. Breakfasts are delicious, varied and plentiful. We loved chilling in the garden overlooking the beach. Tides add charm to this place and you can use pool if you want. :) We walked along the beach to Jambiani and to Paje - and we think that the beach at Kobe is the best place to stay. Thanks to Ali for teaching us the rules and playing together Bao game. If we visit Zanzibar next time we will definitely stay at Kobe.

Plussat: This is amazing place with beautiful location just a few meters away from the beach. Rooms are nice, cosy and clean. Garden with bar and pool is spectacular! Breakfast is delicious with just enough options to satisfy all your wishes. There’s also a cute library just above the restaurant and you can also borrow some games! Stuff is very attentive, special thanks to Ali and Suzie - they were really doing their best to make our stay even better.

Plussat: The garden is so pretty, with many places to lie down in the shade. The staff is very attentive and helpful. My room was small but perfect for my needs and clean.

Miinukset: The door to the beach was locked at sunrise. Don’t forget to ask for the code of the lock the previous day or you’ll be locked in!

Plussat: Obliging, charming staff. Excellent value. Good restaurant.

Miinukset: The beds are a little hard as they are not sprung.

Plussat: Staff is very friendly and efficient

Plussat: 1. The property is well designed and nicely built. 2. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. 3. The food we ordered were exceptionally tasty. The grilled prawns, ujoroh soup, prawns in coconut gravy were the best we had. 4. The cots arranged around the swimming pool under the shade of the coconut trees were excellent for a post lunch siesta. 5. The plants in the compund were very well laid out.

Miinukset: 1. The bathroom is the tiniest we have seen. The bathing cubicle measures 2feet by 2 feet and the opening is just sufficient to enter sideways. After the shower it is even more difficult to exit through the narrow opening. Taking a shower is a stressful activity as you have to be careful not to bang elbows or knuckles on the wall or the faucet. 2. There was no air-conditioning in room 7 and the ceiling fan is ornamental. It doesn't deliver any air. This we discovered late at night when we were about to sleep. Had to go looking for the staff and they promptly arranged a pedestal fan. With this fan, we were able to sleep. For the US$ 55 we paid for a night, air-conditioning is expected. Or at least a ceiling fan that delivers a good air flow. 3. Entry from the road is through a huge gate which is locked. There is a bell on the side which you have to ring and talk to the staff to be admitted. 4. The roof is built of coconut leaf thatch and wood structure. It is very nice to look at and is also done very well. However, it is a fire trap. One careless cigarette thrown on to the thatch roof can quickly engulf the whole building in flames in minutes. I didn't see any fire extinguishers placed around. I hope the management will take care of the shortcomings pointed out.

Plussat: We liked the overall settings and its location near by other attractions (restaurants, kite shops...). The place with the garden, the pool, plenty space and spots outside to relax. The bar next to the pool. The warness of the pool. Staff was kind and helpful. We were welcomed in a great manner and provided options for our stay.

Miinukset: Wifi connection was bad and often absent. even when we were seating next to the router. Fishes and seafoods were a bit overcooked. We ate at other places during our stay on Zanzibar where the experience with catch of the day, including calamari and squids, was much better.

Plussat: Excellent place to stay in Jambiani. The staff is really nice and you are attended by the owners who are always worried for your comfort. Excellent food, order the pizza and the gnocchi al granchio!

Plussat: its was a real pleasure to be in this hotel, the staff was very very kindly, room was clean and calm, the food was delicious , the beach is near and very nice...thank you all for your hospitality

Miinukset: rien

Plussat: Staff were friendly

Miinukset: We had booked in to a 4 star hotel for part of our honeymoon but were told that we would not be staying at this hotel but rather a small "sister" hotel next to the beach 5 mins drive away. We were not told of any wifi for the first 3 days, no one cleaned our room for 3 days, we made our own bed. At night everyone left by 6pm leaving us on our own with the security guard. We also had no hot water from our shower despite letting staff know, nothing was fixed.

Miinukset: plenty of staff, but lack of authorized personnel (the owner often absent, so no possibility to discuss any issues during her absence)

Plussat: The food at the restaurant was exceptional. The service from the staff was really good, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Thank you.

Miinukset: Free bottled water in the rooms. The excursions were a bit more expensive than i'd have liked them to be.

Plussat: Hosts, staff, bungalows are great. It is very clean with a nice pool and sunbeds so you can chill out by the pool while you are waiting or after you come from the beach. Breakfast and restaurant at Seconda Stella were great. It is probably the best pizza on Zanzibar island. We were dining every evening at Seconda Stella, everything we tried was great: seafood platter, octopus, pizza. They also have nice European wines and good cocktails.

Miinukset: It is not on the beach, you have to walk 10 minutes through the village which is nice during the day but during the night there is no street light and no people around. Also, for tours, it's better to book on the beach. Prices of the tours offered by hotel are expensive, double priced respect what you arrange alone walking the beach with local guides.

Plussat: Fantastic breakfast and restaurant was very good (Italian) if you fancy a change to the standard Zanzibar cuisine.

Miinukset: Bed was quite hard

Plussat: Staff were super nice and friendly. Beautiful quiet beach. Great food at the restaurant. All in all a great experience.

Miinukset: Rooms can be improved. Bathroom / shower were old.

Plussat: Very friendly personnel, clean and nice rooms, friendly service

Miinukset: The food wasn't the best and you had to preorder couple hours before to avoid long waiting times.

Plussat: Loved being in Jambiani

Miinukset: No air con hard to sleep at night

Plussat: It's quiet and peaceful and the perfect place to relax. The staff are one of the best things about Blue Oyster; they are friendly, thoughtful and genuinely lovely. The location is amazing, right on the beach; every sunbed, sea view room and restaurant table offers beautiful views of the beach. The hotel provides beach towels free of charge. Breakfast is delicious, lots of choice. We ate most of our other meals at the hotel as the choice was excellent with plenty of options for vegetarians. We asked the staff in advance if they could provide soya milk and this was no problem. Food and drink prices are very reasonable. We booked trips through the hotel and thoroughly enjoyed them. We particularly recommend the Blue Safari trip, an excellent boat trip. The hotel can help with ordering taxis, hiring bikes, they even sourced a football shirt of a Tanzanian team for us when we'd failed to find one in the local town!

Miinukset: We really loved the hotel so it doesn't really feel fair to talk about things that we didn't like. But there were two things, one of which (smoking) the hotel could do something about immediately and the other (smell in the bathroom) which we aren't sure what the hotel can do about because we don't actually know what the source of the smell was. 1. The smoking Smoking is allowed in the dining area and anywhere in the outside sunbed and open air bar area. There should be no smoking at allowed in the dining area and there should be a designated smoking area in the outside space - perhaps sunbeds at one end of the garden area could be for smokers and the rest of the sunbeds, for everyone else. 2. Bathroom smell There was also an unpleasant smell in the bathroom. We couldn't work out whether this was coming from the drains or whether it was just the general small of damp, what with it being a 'wet room'. We did report it and the staff immediately responded by cleaning the drains. However, the smell remained and was so overpowering that we had to keep the bathroom door closed at all times.

Plussat: The property has an amazing beach front location, with sun beds and umbrellas provided. The view is very nice. Food and drinks were deliciously prepared on spot, everything was fresh and delivered on time. Its a buffet breakfast and different menus for lunch and dinner. The room was clean and cozy. Staff were great with me and my friend, they were kind and always concerned. You can arrange different activities for your stay, the staff will help you with this as well. We asked for airport shuttle and everything was arranged on time. They also respond quickly online if you have any questions. Definitely will recommend to friends and stay there again.

Miinukset: As a constructive comment, I would like to add that maybe a wider meal or snack/appetizer selection in the menu will be nice. And also restaurant work time to be extended maybe until midnight at least.

Plussat: The location, the beach is nice

Miinukset: Limited options of food in the menu The portion and the quality was not impressive compared with the price especially for the seafood. Zanzibar is famous for the seafood and fruits but what u get in your order is very disappointing.

Plussat: Great friendly staff, location is perfect just on the beach, dinner offers delicious choice of various dishes

Miinukset: The breakfast was a bit poor with the same dishes all the time, in our room there was a problem with the oveflow in the shower. The water didn't flow down properly. Despite of our request to be fixed it was never done

Plussat: The setting was amazing - right on top of the beach and sea (at high tide) Friendly staff The village it is in is totally unspoilt by tourism

Miinukset: Minor downside - as an eco hotel there is no A/c, which we knew and wanted but even with the bedside fan, the room was hot

Plussat: Everything except the food quality

Miinukset: Food

Plussat: Our stay was wonderful. The staff is very helpful and kind. The location is very good and there is a genuine attempt to keep proper standards of sustainability with respect to the environment as well as in excellent harmony with the community living in the area. I would totally recommend it!!

Plussat: Clean, bright and small hotel - it feels like a boutique hotel and not a resort, which is rare for Zanzibar. Fantastic pool and excellent food. Huge beds and fun bathrooms.

Plussat: The place was just awesome and so worth for the money !!! So quiet and just insanely beautiful !! Definitely will come again ❤️

Miinukset: Everything was perfect

Plussat: The best part of our stay was really the attentive staff. They could help with any request and made the property feel like a home or private villa rather than a hotel. I would especially like to thank Mohammed and Sayid who were fantastic at what they did. During our stay it was my girlfriend's birthday - for which they helped organise a dolphin trip at late notice the day before. As well as a birthday cake at no extra charge for that night. Jambiani beach is a great part of Zanzibar, it is enjoyed by both locals and tourists, and the town is safe and interesting to walk through. We had come from Bwejuu days before where the beach has a lot of litter and the only locals were trying to sell you stuff.

Miinukset: The only critique is the excursions are a little pricey so can get cheaper through booking elsewhere. As well as the 5% charge for card payments can be quite larger if you are paying for the entire stay there.

Plussat: Nice and comfy bed.

Miinukset: There is no door to toilet and bathroom for no reason because the place was big enough to close properly with a door.

Plussat: Everything. Food, staff everything is perfect. We recommend this place to everybody that want's to see Jambiani.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We arrived in paradise

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Uzuri Villa was absolutely beautiful. The location, the facilities, the food and the staff. We loved everything about it.

Plussat: Location is superb, directly on a wonderful powder-beach. We also liked the swinging sun beds. Food is nice, there were not many guests and therefore also the menu was limited. But the things they had were good. Nearby is the jozani forest and butterfly center which were both nice attractions.

Miinukset: I guess it was a really nice hotel 30 years ago. Now its rather shabby and broken. But they just began to renovate it, so maybe it will get "newer" soon :) wifi was not available in the room, but at the pool and nearby the reception and restaurant there was a good connection.

Plussat: Ocean is 20 meters from property.
