"I cannot recommend this place highly enough. It exceeded all expectations, and I would love to return one day."

10.0

I felt like I was in paradise. The villa is in a perfect location, and everything was spotless and well-maintained. The beach is just a few minutes' walk away, making it incredibly convenient. Everything about our stay was perfect. The staff were exceptional, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Rehema was amazing and went above and beyond to make our stay special. The manager was also very friendly and made a point of personally meeting us, which was a lovely touch. I would highly recommend this villa and would happily stay here again.

"Un petit coin de paradis"

9.0

L’emplacement face à la plage, la gentillesse et la disponibilité du staff, le petit déjeuner (jus de fruit frais, omelette, yahourt maison et granola). Nous avions la villa familiale. Elle est très spacieuse et bien équipée avec tout ce qu’il faut pour cuisiner si jamais on le souhaite. Nous étions les seuls occupants et avons donc pu profiter de la piscine juste pour nous. Nous y avons passés deux nuits et y serions bien restés un peu plus longtemps.

Rien. La villa juste à côté de Babu Villas était en rénovation donc malheureusement il y avait beaucoup de bruit de perceuse, scie électrique, ponceuse, coups de marteau. Dommage, cela a gâché un peu la tranquillité des lieux. Mais ce n’est pas la faute de Babu Villas. Une suggestion, indiquer la direction de Babu Villas depuis la route principale car le GPS n’indique pas le bon emplacement et l’accès à Babu Villas n’est pas forcément évident si on ne connaît pas les lieux. Nous avons dû demander notre chemin à des riverains.

"paradijselijk verblijf!"

10.0

Babu Villa voelde paradijselijk! het appartement zelf was ruim, prachtige kamers, heel smaakvol ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. De bedden waren hard maar we sliepen als prinsesjes! Het ontbijt was verrukkelijk en in overvloed waardoor we er ook nog een lunch aan overhielden. We hadden het appartement tegenover het zwembad en hebben genoten van het uitzicht. Gedurende de dag veranderde het uitzicht, eb en vloed, de houten dhowboten die uitvoeren, wandelaars, locale bevolking die bezig waren met allerlei werkzaamheden. Het leek wel een constante film zo mooi! We hadden het zwembad bijna altijd voor onszelf omdat de andere gasten er minder gebruik van maakten. In de omgeving langs het strand waren genoeg leuke restaurants om te eten. (wel bijna Europese prijzen) Het dorp Jambiani is nog authentiek en de mensen zijn vriendelijk. We hebben via de accomodatie ook excursies geboekt. Vooraf de boottocht en kruidentoer waren geweldig en goed geregeld. Iedereen van Babu villas was zeer vriendelijk en we voelden ons zeer welkom. Als ik ooit weer naar Zanzibar mag komen, dan zou ik hier zeker weer willen verblijven!

niets, het was gewoon geweldig!

"Wish we could have stayed longer in this tropical paradise!"

10.0

Our family of four (we have two adult children) had a wonderful three-night stay at Babu Villas! Mélie met us when we arrived and oriented us to the property and the area. Throughout our stay, she helped us book cabs, restaurants, and even kite surfing lessons. She and her staff are real gems! Each morning, villa staff made us incredible breakfasts of eggs, crêpes, gorgeous fresh fruit, pastries, yogurt, granola, and more, which we ate outside, overlooking the pool area and the beach. The location is beautiful, right on the beach, where traditional fishing boats bob. The pool area is so inviting, with soft sand, coconut palms, lounge chairs, and hammocks. Perfect for relaxing and reading. Our beds were comfortable, and we appreciated the AC there. The bathrooms were nice and spacious. We appreciated having the kitchen, which allowed us to refrigerate breakfast food and reheat leftovers from dinner. Within walking distance, there is an ATM, a small market, local fruit stands, and @home, a cafe with very good coffee. We also had some nice dinners at the restaurant of the Passion Boutique Hotel, a few doors down. We all wish we had more time to spend at the villas, and if we ever have the good fortune to return to Zanzibar, this is where we will stay!

Babu Villas made everything on Sansibar perfect for us. It was the place, where we could just look at the indian ocean, start a walk at the beach, stay in or outside the appartement and enjoy everything around it. It is the perfect quite place for reading, looking and just being. The team was always there when we had questions and for the daily support. The breakfast was delicious, every day with fresh food. Very helpful tipps for restaurants are given by the team. We would definitely come again to Babu Villas.

"Baba Villas is a gem: Amazing staff and a warm, welcoming place in a stunningly beautiful location."

10.0

I loved nearly everything about Babu Villas. It is a true gem: The grounds and rooms are lovely with just the perfect balance of wonderful artisan decor but also a welcoming place that feels like home. The location is absolutely wonderful: Just off the beach and in the laid back vibe of Jambiana. Most exceptional of all were the amazing staff - Mélie, Rehema, and crew-- who were charming, incredibly responsive and helpful, and always made us feel authentically welcomed and at home. Without a doubt one of the most wonderful experiences I have ever had at a guesthouse or B&B or VRBO.

Ein ganz besonderes Juwel mit liebevoll gestalteter Einrichtung😍 Die Lage ist im Vergleich zu vielen anderen Hotels außergewöhnlich, da man als Gast viele Einblicke-besonders am Strand - in das Leben der Bewohner des Ortes bekommt. Man wohnt eben mittendrin. Alle, die unseren Aufenthalt mitgestaltet haben, haben ihr Bestes gegeben, damit wir uns rundum wohl fühlen konnten.
