Aurora Boutique Hotel Jambiani

We loved our time at Aurora. Marissa is a great host and instantly made us feel welcome and Simon is a fabulous chef. The hotel has a really relaxing vibe, the pool was a welcome respite from the heat and the rooms was spotlessly clean. The hotel is a short walk through the village to the beach. If we return to Jambiani we will absolutely stay at Aurora again 🙂

Amazing place! All staff were very helpful and especially welcoming and friendly owners who were always taking care that we would have everything what is needed and will feel like at home. Room was spacious, precisely clean, modern and very nicely decorated. Perfect variety of delicious breakfast. Lunch and dinner options are also very good with reasonable prices. The hotel surroundings are unexceptionable with a lot of green plants, blue and clean pool - a true oasis of peace. Even though rooms don’t have a/c, fan working so well that the room temperature was more than perfect. Highly recommend this beautiful and charming place!

Marisa and her husband Simon are amazing. Two very good entrepreneurs with a lot of experience in hospitality (he is a chef as well). They were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and we also had one dinner there which was really good. The location is very nice, really close to the beach (3min walk) and other good restaurants. The hotel itself is beautiful and the rooms are big, very clean and comfortable. Definitely recommend!

Clean, comfortable, stylish, great attention to detail, lots of sockets, lights, great fan and shower, the complimentary water, plenty of towels, a small fridge and lovely shampoo and shower wash. The owners went out of their way to ensure I was happy and were very friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast too and nothing was too much trouble for the owners, they made me feel so so welcomed.

We liked the warm welcome from the hosts and staff. The property is not on the beach but access is easy by walking through the village. The property restaurant is managed by an Italian chef, the food is excellent. It’s next level to what we find in the area. We had diner for the four nights of our stay!. Jambiani is a nice quiet beach.

Nothing.

Where do I start!? I had the best time staying here. From the get go I felt welcomed by the owners, it's almost like visiting your relatives (like your favourite aunt or something) because you immediately feel at home. All the staff are lovely. The hotel is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully designed - like the adjustable light for the mirror in the bathroom. The pool is clean and it was very easy to sit around and relax all day. And I love that each room has its own private little patio where you can relax also. The food is ...*chefs kiss! I didn't have a meal I didn't like, one of the owners is a chef and you can tell! The breakfasts were great and there are plenty of choices and...proper coffee!! And to top it all off if you're an animal lover they have the friendliest dog and some cats pottering around which always makes me feel more at home!

Nothing!

The hosts Marissa and Simon are so friendly, kind and helpful. The rooms are big and super clean. The property is peaceful plus the staff is always there to assist with every need.

No A/C in room that is the only thing, everything else is really good!

The owners of this hotel (husband and wife) are incredibly rude and smoke around guests while they're eating. After I asked to bring my food to my room to finish, one of the owners confronted me about it and basically scolded me for not wanting to breathe secondhand smoke. It was a very uncomfortable stay and a negative ending to two otherwise great weeks in Tanzania.
