A few steps from Jambiani Beach, Olamanga Beach Villa is a recently renovated property situated in Jambiani and features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and parking on-site. The property was built in 2023 and has accommodation with a patio. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

I love everything about the property, very close to the village where you can find supermarket, restaurants, and any other kind of tour that I was looking for. 1min walking to the beach , not packed beach and with very chilled vibes, perfect for couples and families. The rooms are beautiful and comfortables, details oriented. Pool just for us anytime we wanted , and the fact that they don’t do the cleaning everyday for the climate impact we found it very ecological and nice, something that we appreciate.

Nyumbani Residence was excellent, it was very clean and peaceful, just 5 minutes walk from a beautiful beach. There are a number of restaurants and cafes near to suit all needs. The owners Paula and Daniel were extremely helpful and was able to give us good tips and advice. The receptionist Grace was always bright and bubbly, as were all the staff.

Jambiani Villas is located in Jambiani on three properties 400 m away from each other: Kaskazi, Katikati and Kusini. All properties are situated right on the beach and offer outdoor pools and free WiFi.

My partner and I spent almost 3 weeks in Zanzibar in January 2022. We have stayed at 4 different areas of the island, in 5 different hotels, Jambiani Villa being the second one, for 4 nights. Jambiani itself is a quiet fishing village with only a few hotels, guesthouses and restaurants. Right after we booked this accommodation we knew we made the right choice just by the way the hotel communicated with us. Prior our arrival we received the most detailed information about the Villas and the village, and received valuable tips and hits for traveling to Zanzibar in general. The Jambiani Villas are located in 3 properties. We stayed in the main building, called Katikati, in one of the apartments (Iliki) on the top floor, facing the outdoor pool and the ocean. Even though it was right above the restaurant, neither the smell, nor the noise (if there was any) could be felt or heard in our room. Our apartment had a very spacious and clean room with comfortable king size bed, air-conditioning, desk, sofa, TV, etc., spacious and really nice bath, a full kitchen with fridge and a large balcony. Finding European plugs in the room were a nice surprise. :) Wifi always worked perfectly throughout our stay. Breakfast is wonderful. I loved the fresh guacamole and the home made jam! At the beginning I was a little worried that having a restaurant onsite is going to be busy and noise, but not at all. It was actually very quiet, and it came handy that we could have lunch and/or dinner on site whenever we wanted to. The outdoor area is small, but clean, tidy and comfortable. The extremely kind, warm and helpful staff, along with the amazing efficient and professional management team made our stay really memorable. Special thank you, Magdalena for your special care and the trip to the amazing Maalum cave!

Situated off Paje Road, the beachfront Kobe House is located in Jambiani on the south east coast of Zanzibar. It has two swimming pools surrounded by a tropical garden and featuring views of the beach.

This is a true tropical paradise in a relaxing part of Jambiani. Very appropriate also for the families with small children. Everyone in Kobe team goes out and beyond to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. The staff is amazing and super friendly. They even prepared a lovely surprise for my birthday. The food is also good, pools refreshing and the beach is just a few steps away. The rooms are newly renovated and well equiped. We loved the outside resting area under the big trees that provide enough shade throughout the whole day. Along the beach you can find also other restaurants that serve good food, but all in all this part is not very crowded (like Paje for example). We really enjoyed walking along the beach in the afternoon, when the sun is less strong. The tide difference here is enormous, but this is actually what makes it so special and unique.

Situated within a few steps of Jambiani Beach and 26 km of Jozani Forest in Jambiani, TASNEEM Aparthotel features accommodation with seating area. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a year-round outdoor pool.

We had the big apartment with three bedrooms, living room and kitchen. Kitchen was well equipped, apartments were very clean, house cleaning took care every day. The balcony (I should say terrace as it is huge) and the rooms were furnished very nicely and there were mosquito nets for every bed. (However, when we were there in January there were only very few mosquitos). Furthermore, there were air cons and ceiling fans working well. Lots of different lights as well. Liked the bathrooms. Beds were very comfortable, All rooms had big window fronts as well as light blocking curtains. Also the terrace had white curtains, which is nice if you want to have privacy while using the terrace. It is a small complex with 8 - 10 apartments, so it is never too busy. This is also the case if you want to book one of the two beautiful pools for you and your company for an hour or two. Was very relaxing.

Right on a beautiful beach, spacious rooms, nice pool and really chill bar/dining area. The food is so tasty, had the best ceviche, really nice sea food and lovely breakfast with fresh sourdough bread. The staff is so friendly and always make you smile. Can’t wait to be back.

Wifi worked really good (based on Zanzibar's standards). We had our own patio and dining area. Breakfast was delicious and each morning we received various fresh juices and fruit plates.
