Guest Reviews

• Heike (8/5): -
• Radina (1/5): Serious safety incident during our stay - During our stay, an intruder entered the apartment through the kitchen window while we were inside and stole cash and my passport. The property was described as safe, with security, high fences, and an electric fence. After the incident, we were informed that the electric fence had not been functioning. This information was never communicated to us beforehand. What was particularly concerning is that after the incident, other guests staying on the property were not informed or warned to be more cautious. Life continued as usual, with windows left open at night, which felt very unsafe given what had just happened. After the theft, the host told us that the passport would be returned. It was later brought to the police, which was unexpected and did not reduce how frightening and serious the situation was for us. This was a very distressing experience, and we did not feel safe. The incident has been reported to Booking.com. I strongly recommend future guests to carefully consider the safety situation before booking.

• Matti (10/5): - Mycket stor lägenhet med 2st toaletter. Fullt kök med allt du behöver. Superfin inredning. Lyxigt boende. Flera restaurang ca 1 min promenad. Finaste stranden 2 min promenad. Värdinnan är supertrevlig och hjälpte med allt. Bättre än så här går inte att bo. Att man måste åka hem efter en vecka till jobbet. Drömmer om att få stanna flera månader.....

• Charlotte (10/5): Wonderful stay - We could not be more satisfied with our stay at Bantu Home. My family stayed there over the Christmas holidays (25/26), and everything exceeded our expectations. The two-bedroom apartment was spotless, very comfortable, and well equipped with all the amenities we needed as foreign visitors, whenever electricity was available. The property is very well located, just a few minutes’ walk from the beach, which was a real plus. The owner was extremely helpful, always reachable, and very responsive. When we requested a power plug adapter, it arrived within five minutes. We were also proactively informed about power cuts, which are quite common on the island — a level of communication we truly appreciated. The concierge was always around, very friendly, and ready to help whenever needed. They even fixed the squeaking doors after the first night, which really showed their attention to detail. The cleaning lady also went above and beyond to assist us and made our stay even more pleasant. Overall, an excellent experience. We would absolutely recommend Bantu Home and would not hesitate to stay there again.
• Maya (10/5): We will be back! - Bantu Home is one of those places that gets into your “will return” list. The property itself is gorgeous, secluded and quiet - the terrace is such a lovely place to sit, surrounded by leafy and colourful trees. It’s also only 5 mins walk to the beach, and the town. Perfect location. What makes this place so incredibly special is Alessandre and her team. She did so much to help us have a great stay, she is one of the best hosts I’ve had the pleasure to meet. There’s nothing I would change. I know they are planning work to improve the stability of electricity as the supply on the island is not so great.

• Ked (9/5): Exceptionnel - Alexandra a été un hôte bien plus qu'accueillant. Elle nous a traité comme quelqu'un de sa famille. Le logement est très bien adapté pour les familles ou petit groupe. Quelques lampes de chevet seraient les bienvenues. La plage est à 5mn. Le jardin est très plaisant. Gracia Mille Alaxandra. Nous reviendrons, c'est sûr. Rien
• Gerretzen (9/5): - Rustig gelegen, op loopafstand van het strand. Wij hebben gebruik gemaakt, tegen betaling, van zwembad en ligbedjes van jambo hotel.
• Ivan (10/5): -
• Nadja (10/5): Exceptional - Best place i stayed in Zanzibar!
• Marwa (10/5): Amazing and would deffinetly come back! - The stay was wonderful, peaceful, close to the beach and everything
• Miroslav (10/5): Exceptional - The house is very comfortable and clean, with unobtrusive people who are there to help. Very close to the beach and restaurants with very tasty food. Everything is accessible and yet the peace and quiet are not disturbed. In general, Paje is a place that does not leave you indifferent.
• Daniel (7/5): The environment was serene (We loved it). It's a stone throw from the Paje Shoreline. I recommend it - Over the period, there were intermittent electricity outages coupled with hours of no internet connectivity. However, our stay was lovely. We hope to return some day.
• Russell (9/5): It was a very relaxing, comfortable and affordable stay. - The home away from home feel. And our hosts Culture and Alessandra checked on us every day. Our apartment was clean and comfortable, the kitchen appliances were more than expected and proximity to the beach was excellent. Getting to the house was a little bit hard to navigate.
• Suhail (8/5): Very good -
• Franziska (10/5): A Cultural Oasis at Bantu Home - I recently had the pleasure of staying at Bantu Home, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the hosts, Culture and Alessandra, who made my stay exceptional. Culture and Alessandra are not just hosts; they are ambassadors of warmth and hospitality. Throughout my stay, they demonstrated a genuine care for their guests, going above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Their passion for sharing their culture and creating a welcoming atmosphere truly sets Bantu Home apart. The location of Bantu Home is another highlight. Nestled in a vibrant neighbourhood, it provides a perfect blend of tranquillity and accessibility. Whether I wanted to explore the local markets or unwind at the nearby beach, everything was within reach. The central location added immeasurable value to my stay, making it convenient to immerse myself in the local culture. The interior of Bantu Home is a testament to thoughtful design and attention to detail. The rooms are not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical and comfortable. The cultural elements incorporated into the decor added a unique touch, creating an immersive experience that allowed me to appreciate the rich heritage of the region. The ambiance of the interior truly enhanced my overall stay. What sets Bantu Home apart is the incredible value for money it offers. In addition to the delightful accommodations, the hosts provide a wealth of information about the local culture, ensuring that guests leave with not just memories, but also a deeper understanding of the community they've visited. The affordability of such an enriching experience is truly commendable. In conclusion, Bantu Home is more than just accommodation; it's an enriching cultural experience facilitated by the warm and caring hosts, Culture and Alessandra. From the excellent location to the well-designed interiors, every aspect of my stay exceeded expectations.
• Elisa (10/5): Wonderful apartments close to the beach - Wonderful newly built house with all amenities and anything you may need for a short or long stay. Location is perfect - one stone throw away from the beach but still in the village with all shops and kiosks and restaurants within walking distance. Hosts are a mixed couple and both have been living long time in the area and can help you with whatever you need. Recommended! Nothing!
