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.

A living room, a kitchen with a fridge, and a private bathroom are provided. A balcony with pool views is offered in every unit.

We loved this place. Beautiful gardens, two pools so naturally one attracts the adults that want to relax and one families with kids. Hosts and all the staff super friendly. Spacious apartments with kitchen, lovely breakfast, short walk to the beach. You get some free water at the start and then just 5€ for big bottle so you never have to worry about water and plastic waste which was otherwise bit of an issue for rest of our Zanzibar trip. We had great time and would definitely come back.

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.

Our hosts were very kind and helpful and room was perfect; very spacious and superbly decorated. Attention was given to every detail, from furniture, room colors, wall ornaments to bathroom style. View from the balcony on the pool and sea was amazing. Fish in the restaurant was excellent and the staff there are masters of their profession.

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.

LOCATION perfect - beachfront, you can every day make long walks at beach. HOTEL perfect - totally renovated hotel, everything is new and clean. STAFF perfect - absolutely incredible, they are helpfull, kind and make you feel like at home. Even now, a few days after my vacation I still have the feeling that guests really come first at the Kobe hotel. Everyone is very nice and helpful, if there is any problem, it was immediately solved. I spent three weeks in Zanzibar and travelled all over island but Kobe hotel left a really warm trace in me and if I return to Zanzibar I know I will visit Kobe hotel again. Due to the fact that the hotel unfortunately burned down and had to be rebuilt, the owners and the new staff involved in the rebuilding have been incredibly supportive and appreciative of every guest who arrives at the new hotel and they are one good team, no team, family. They really try to accommodate you in absolutely everything and fulfill your every wish, I recommend this hotel wholeheartedly. Special thanks to Mariam, Kelvin and Victor - you are the best, keep going. Hakuna matata 🫶❤🫶❤🫶

Bahari Beach Bungalows is located on the beach in Jambiani. It offers bungalow accommodation with a bar and free WiFi in public areas.

The basic bungalows are build with local materials and fitted with a fan, mosquito net and private bathroom facilities.

Stephania belissima bella! We had a superb family beach holiday at Bahari Beach hotel. Above all we should mention lovely Stephania and her welcoming staff, are doing the ultimate to make you feel at home during your stay. Stephania build the place herself to what it is today, so you really feel she puts her hart into the business and her clientele. The hotel has a great beach vibe with a garden and open dining area straight on the beach. It has 5 rooms including 1 family room. Situated in the garden you feel that neatly wiped nice fine tropical island white sand under your feet as soon as you step out your hotel room door. Everything breaths the chill and relax vibe, all decorated in african style. The beach beds, the scattered around sitting corners all build from wood with palm tree roofing. You wont find any plastic furniture throughout the compound. Stephania has an eye for detail. And the food! The menu is a mix of tanzanian style seafood and italian style cuisine. Did i mention already Stephania is from Italy? So you can expect true Italian made dishes and pizza prepared by her mother! Mamma mia! Travelling with family of 5, we had 1 room with 2 kingsize and 1 room with 1 kingsize bed close to each other. The rooms are spacious and again with that authentic african decoration. The "ladies" are keeping the rooms clean and clear of creepy tiny wildlife you might expect in Africa under palm wooden roofing. So combined with outstanding wifi, even my kids had nothing to complain about! The hotel is situated at a quieter part of Jambiani beach, so no loud music or parties disturbing the peace. For a shop or groceries you will need a ride which you can book via the hotel or take a five minute walk to the mainroad and take a chance on the "local" public transport. Next time i visit i would hire a car for the week as prices are not high and getting around is easy.

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.

Featuring a balcony with garden views, an infinity pool and a garden, Baobab Bungalows can be found in Jambiani, close to Paje Beach and 23 km from Jozani Forest. With inner courtyard views, this accommodation offers a patio. The apartment provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi.

Everything! 1- the pool is AMAZING: clean, big, places to sit inside the pool; 2- the hotel itself: very cute design, clean and big rooms, with everything you need. The kitchen is fully equiped too. Great bonus: the hotel provides cold water on arrival (a gallon). 3- the staff: very friendly staff, always ready to help and very kind. Special mention to Dona, the manager, who has a car and drove me to the supermarket and showed me around on my arrival day. 4- I felt very safe at the hotel (night guard, staff always there, small hotel) 5- If you love a quiet and peaceful place, this is for you. I hate big and crowded hotels. This one is super quiet and there is not many bungalows, so it never felt crowded even when the hotel was full. I LOVED IT! One of my favorite hotel yet 🩷

Nice new place in Jambiani. Very close to the beach - you're there in two minutes. Very quiet and tranquil, and Said - the host - is amazing. He is very attentive to detail and is one of the best hosts I've ever met. The room is very spacious and clean, and the bed has great mosquito nets. Breakfast is abundant, and DO TRY THE RESTAURANT! I cannot stress this enough. If I could, I would rate it more than 10.

    Wonderful in every respect! Beautiful villa with amazing view. Local staff and European owners are all very nice and helpful. The restaurant is excellent, both at breakfast, lunch, dinner and in the occasion of the special thematic buffets (swahili, bbq, seafood). I will really miss the fresh African coffeee brewed every morning with an Italian machine and served with a smile; the better way to start the day, after an early swim in the ocean!

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.
