Guest Reviews
- Harald (9/5): -
- Nina (10/5): We would definitely come back! - Great view, lovely staff and good location to reach other bars and restraints. Nice rooftop!
- Laima (10/5): The best holidays - The location was great (we stayed in the restaurant area) and it was much more better when staying with kids (drinks and meals nearby, can bring it to the pool) and mainly 2 houses were using the pool. Very convenient. All the staff were also great! We felt very safe. The sea views are amazing.
- Marjolein (10/5): - Locatie,, personeel, kamer , allemaal perfect! Niets
- Nicolas (10/5): -
- Martina (8/5): Schön aber unpraktisch - Hübsche Architektur und Innendesign. Direkt am Strand gelegen. Freundliche und sehr hilfsbereite Angestellte. Sehr sauber. Die Unterkunft ist unpraktisch. Der wunderschöne Raum mit Ehebett im oberen Stock ist offen zu den Gemeinschaftsräumen (Eingang, Küche, Gang). Dh man ist zwar in einer ‚Honeymoon Suite‘ und hat Null Privatsphäre! Man hört auch alles, wenn jemand in der Küche ist. Aufgrund der Bauweise wird es im oberen Stock sehr warm. Viel wärmer als in anderen Unterkünften, die wir auf Sansibar hatten.

- Ash (10/5): Fantastic - Everything was excellent, staff great, on beach and great accommodation and food served with friendly service Everything was perfect
- Andreea Elena (10/5): - The apartment was very big and the staff was super friendly. The place has a nice swimming pool and it's beach front. We enjoyed our time here.

- Monique (9/5): We had an amazing time at Jambiani Villas. Staff is friendly, helpful and welcoming. Villas is nice and comfortable. -
- Stephanie (10/5): A Truly Special and Private Zanzibar Escape - We had a truly special stay at Jambiani Beach Villas in Zanzibar. The villa was beautifully designed with stunning interiors, semi-private pools, and breathtaking views from both the terrace and balcony. We were lucky enough to receive an upgrade, which made the experience even more memorable. The accommodation itself was so lovely that we skipped excursions just to enjoy the house and surroundings. Breakfast was excellent, and both the restaurant and room service were efficient, fast, and very attentive. We felt well taken care of throughout our stay and would highly recommend it. Although there was a short walk to the restaurant (which someone mentioned beforehand), it didn’t bother us at all and actually added to the feeling of privacy and exclusivity.

- gabriela (9/5): -
- Naznin (10/5): Peaceful! - It’s location . Very relaxing. Nothing
- Stephanie (10/5): Jak wrócę na Zanzibar to tylko tu - Spokój i cisza. Pełny komfort wypoczynku. Trochę twarde materace ale po jednym dniu można było sie przyzwyczaic

- Gunhild (10/5): - Atmosfæren. Gode senger. Rent. God massasje. Velholdt. Passe stort.
- Svein Olav Nordang (10/5): Fantastisk! - Nydelig lokasjon, fantastisk frokost.
- Susanne (10/5): - Eine perfekte Location zur Entspannung. Großzügige, saubere Häuser mit aufmerksamen Housekeeping. Die Sonnenliegenpolster werden regelmäßig gereinigt. Das gesamte Personal ist extrem freundlich und hilfsbereit. Auch Sonderwünsche werden versucht umgehend zu realisieren. Die feste Speisenkarte wird täglich ergänzt durch meist regionale Gerichte. Die Küche kocht sehr lecker. Das man nur zur Flut gut im Meer baden kann wird durch den Pool kompensiert. Da die Anlage klein ist, wird es nirgendwo voll. Hinter der Anlage beginnt dass einfache, afrikanische Leben der Einheimischen. Unsere Erfahrungen sind nur gut. Alle sind sehr freundlich und nicht aufdringlich.
- Michelle (10/5): - The property was exactly as described, on the beach, clean, peaceful and with amazing staff. We were greeted by Temayani who looked after us from when we arrived ( early) to getting our room ready as soon as possible and then arranging a generous late check out. Other staff included Shemsha, Grace and Guidion who made the whole vacation beyond amazing. Thank you so much

- BETHAN (10/5): -
- Holger (9/5): Es war einfach rundherum toll. Wir kommen gerne wieder. - Direkt am Strand, sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal, unsere Villa war sehr geräumig, wir hatten eine Villa mit Blick aufs Meer. Wünsche oder Anfragen wurden sehr schnell erfüllt oder beantwortet. Es gab Frühstücksbuffer mit einer kleinen Karte dazu, die Auswahl / Variationen könnten etwas mehr sein.
- Theodor Christian (10/5): - Alles perfekt
- Sofia (10/5): We found paradise and it’s Jambiani Villas. - All the staff were incredibly lovely and made us feel at home straight away. The view from our room was stunning and the food was excellent. Jambiani beach is gorgeous - don’t be put off by the high and low tides! We cannot fault this place at all, we’d go back in a heartbeat. Nothing, everything was amazing.
- Nazia (10/5): - Jambiani villa ( Kusini) is a beautiful 3 bed villa on the jambiani beach , which is situtated on the southeren side of Zanzibar , its calm and oeacful there ideal for families .
- Juche (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was phenomenal and the shows spectacular. It was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely recommend Jambiani Villas to all.

- David (9/5): I would recommend to a friend - We had a superb stay at Jambiani Villas. The place was very clean, the food excellent and the staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and loved the chilled atmosphere and that the property backed onto the beach
- ابراهيم (6/5): -
- May (10/5): -
- Asifa (10/5): Idyllic villa, beautiful beach, lovely service - Stayed in a wonderful 3 bed villa at the Kusini property. Location on the beach was great and service was fantastic. The staff were so welcoming and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The villa was immaculate with lovely furniture and well equipped. It was cleaned everyday. It almost felt like we had our own private pool as we only shared it with one other villa and we were never in the pool at the same time as other guests. You could also walk along the beach to other cafes for lunch. For dinner, best to book a taxi there and back. Very small thing that is good to note: breakfast was in another location but you could either walk along the beach at low tide to get there, get a lift or have one of the staff walk you though the village to the location. You could also have it delivered to your villa. Would have been great to have a sun lounger or two on the upper balcony as another place to chill out.
- John (8/5): A good hotel, a pity in the way the billing is not customer friendly and just a couple of areas of improvements - The 2 bedroom villa was amazing, with views from the balcony being sensational. Your staff are wonderful and did everything they could do to make our stay an enjoyable one. The two buffet nights were very good and the entertainment top notch. The creation of an itemised bill rather than a daily bill eg drinks for you stay could be shown a 20 beer 10 mojito 12 cokes across your stay. Which is impossible to remember and check your bill. We took a photo of each bill we signed for and it was clear that we had been charged drink that we had not paid for. I would advise all guest to thoroughly check your bill prior payment. Guest towels and beach towels have seen better days and are very thin. There is no turn down service, you turn your own bed down, arrange your own mosquito nets and spay your own room with insect repellent. This was not experience at other hotels in Zanzibar.
- Marilyn (10/5): Exceptional - The food at the LA Shira was very good. The staff was exceptionally helpful and nice. The rooms are a good size and beds where comfortable.
- Marilyn (10/5): Exceptional - Everything No TV in rooms
- Hugh (10/5): Great villa in Jambiani - The villa was great, the food was great, and the people were even better. We loved staying here.
- Mohammed (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paulina (8/5): The location and the villa worth the stay if you ignore the details - The location is great just by a nice quiet beach, all the staff really lovely and helpful - they really go above and beyond to make you happy. the food in the restaurant was good. We booked a private bbq one night which was the absolute highlight of the trip, they have done it very well. The villa is spacious and nicely designed, cleaned every day. It wasn't clear to us before the arrival that the villa is spread in 3 different locations quite a bit of walk (especially with a child). We had to walk to the restaurant for the meals and also we came as 3 families, each of which was located in a different property which definitely disturbed our stay. The villa has a lot of outdated items, such as towels that aren't in good condition at all, same with bedding or kitchen equipment that definitely needs upgrading. At the arrival we didn't even have a new sponge in the kitchen but a well used one. The other massive problem is that the pool must have some strong chemicals that turned all our clothes yellow, unfortunately we haven't been able to wash these stains when getting back home.
- Andy (9/5): We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - The staff were excellent, very attentive and friendly Would have been nice to have some comfortable seating around the pool as an alternative to sun beds
- Ruby (10/5): Exceptional -
- Magnus (10/5): Great place - Very nice place to spend some days or a week. You will not miss anyting. staff very service minded and caring
- Tinashe (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect place to visit
- Tinashe (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect place to visit
- Brad (9/5): Superb - the pool was amazing and the access to the beach, the food at the restaurant was a little pricey but amazing ! The wifi connection wasnt amazing, but you dont travel to sit on the mobiles so it was ok!
- Christiane (10/5): Dream vacation in an amazing location - - We had such a great time at Jambiani Villas - The amazing breakfast to start the day with fresh fruit, eggs to order, espresso, joghurt, pastries you name it. We loved the walk along the beach to the restaurant. The properties are all beautiful. We stayed in a 2-bedroom villa and it was just perfect - waking up with a view of the beach and ocean was amazing. Super helpful hosts who organized all our excursions and were always there to answer questions and help with transportation. We ventured out a few times to other restaurants near by for dinner - but the dinners at the restaurant of Jambiani Villas were the best- such great vibe and always changing daily special - made us feel like home.
- Christina (10/5): I would definitely recommend and come back - Amazing hotel, the personalised private dinner was a great touch. The staff are fantastic especially Diana.
- Godfrey (9/5): Superb - Everything The heat
- Giam (8/5): Very good - it really in front of the sea. The beer was not cold enough.
- Balint (7/5): Good -
- Louise (4/5): Disappointing area - The villa itself was clean, plenty of room and beds comfortable. Staff were friendly. Air con not efficient - constantly shown at 16degrees and just about ok temp when wed’d normally gave it at 23/23. The main issue was the surrounding area which was disappointing. The rear of the property was a dump; like much of Zanzibar strewn with derelict property and rubbish, particularly plastic. The walk to breakfast was quite far in the heat. Luckily we could walk on beach when we were there but that was tide dependant otherwise an unpleasant walk inland behind sea front properties. Staff did what they could by offering free room service, car transfer to breakfast (only 1 car for all properties) but that didn’t mitigate enough for us. It felt depressing to be in such an area and after 2 nights we changed accommodation.
- Michal (10/5): Exceptional - + swimming pool + Direct access to the beach + Food + Sound of the ocean + Extremely friendly staff + Family friendly + Big choice of local tours (additional fee) - poor wi-fi
- Sergey (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect. The staff was very helpful and cooperative. Very good breakfast, comfortable villa , excellent location, spacious and clean swimming pool.
- Alis (10/5): Paradisiac, silence, clean with amazing food ! - Clean, private, intimate .. like a dream ! Morning views from bed are amazing. Some noise at 6 am due to a phone nearby, 3 mornings in a row, but just for 30 minutes then back to silence.
- Andrius (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lauren (10/5): Beautiful villas - Beautiful and peaceful place on a beautiful section of beach The walk to breakfast was 600m down the beach at another section of the hotel
- Ana (9/5): Superb -
- Karim (10/5): Paradise! - Everything. The view is wow and the staff is amazing Just the logistics to get there: you have 3 different establishment with no clear instructions on where to go once you check in
- Monet (9/5): Superb - Loved this place and the location! The local staff was fantastic, Assizi the manager and the waitstaff were superb! After having been in the hospitality industry in L.A. where it was vital to connect with guests .... I was amazed after spending 3 nights there, I never saw the manager look up from her laptop. Not once, never got up, never welcomed any of the guests, and had no interaction with the staff unless they sat down at her table. I've traveled all over the world and I have never experienced this. Mentioned that above
- Meg (10/5): Exceptional - The location and staff were great. Food and service at restaurant was great. The beds were not very comfortable compared to other places. I didn't like that the 3 properties were not adjacent and you couldn't walk to each when tide was up. The complimentary shuttle was nice but sometimes took a long time.
- Sebastian (10/5): A perfect relaxing break for our honeymoon after our safari and hike - Everything about the stay was perfect and exactly what we needed after a safari and hike. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and professional. The rooms were spotlessly clean, spacious, great facilities and very comfortable beds. Great mosquito nets and air con. We stayed at Kaskazini for a couple nights and Katikati for the rest of our stay so we got a good view of their different properties. The pools at Kaskazini and Katikati are similar with Kaskazini getting a little better sunlight in the afternoons and slightly more protected from the afternoon winds. They are a 5 minute walk apart from one another along the beach with a taxi service if you need it. The food at Katikati (La Shira restaurant) is excellent with a mix of local and foreign food. Room service can be delivered to you regardless of the property. The weekly bbq and live music was incredible... I'm still thinking about it days later. We had a late flight so the team let us use the pool area throughout the day and we were taken to their 3rd property to use a shower before we left. The staff can arrange everything from ferry and airport shuttles, to day trips and evenings to Stone Town. We were also given the freedom to explore ourselves and never felt like we were being sold to. Everything was to a very high standard but it was the friendly attitude of the staff that was the icing on the cake! Football on the beach in the evening, wine on arrival in our room.... everything was perfect. Thank you! Nothing to dislike - we wanted to stay in Jambiani to avoid the sheltered resort experience of the north and see local life outside of the hotel. Make sure this continues to be promoted as otherwise Jambiani will just become an area for boutique resort where tourists and locals don't mix and local people don't benefit from tourism.
- Jo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Maali (10/5): Great place to relax and enjoy zanzibar - Nice, safe, cozy, and quiet place, great for relaxing and friends gathering. The villa is modern, big and it has everything you need whether for long or short stay. The staff are so friendly and very helpful . The breakfast is so tasty and has many options. They have message service too. I really advise you to choose this hotel and request when you book the villa facing the sea-side directly . We were shocked that the breakfast is not in the same property and it would take about 7 to 10 min. walking. Plus, we have to pay double the tax and more than other property in Paje and Stone Town. The taxi of the hotel is so expensive so better take one from outside. The property is so quiet, and sometimes, late at night and early in the morning, the staff talk so loudly, and we can hear them very clearly.
- Emily (9/5): Paradise! - Such friendly, attentive staff. Hotel and location were beautiful. Room was spacious, clean, cosy with a beautiful beach and pool view. N/A
- Soline31 (8/5): Very nice and quiet stay - The villa was amazing, very clean and new, with direct access to the beach from the pool area. Very nice staff. Breakfast was good. Quite area The villas are split in 2 areas, around 500m in between, but there is only one restaurant. We needed to walk to access the breakfast, which is not a big deal, but it would have been appreciated to know before.
- Abdullah (9/5): Superb -
- Juan (10/5): Amazing retreat - Friendly team, nice accommodation well furnished, great skin care products for shower. Excellent breakfast and location. So quiet and well located within walking distance to awesome restaurants. Nothing to complain about.
- Catrin (9/5): Excellent - Stunning location. Amazing food and excellent staff A seating area on the terrace would have been perfect
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dawn (10/5): Exceptional - service was exceptional location gray and for was amazing morning
- Charlie (8/5): Happy with the stay overall. - Very beautiful property located right on the beach. Jambiani is definitely a quieter part of the island. Nice place to relax. Staff very helpful. Sunrise was very pretty. There are a few restaurants in walking distance, but for longer stays you would need a car or plan on taking frequent taxi’s. There are a lot of shops/restaurants in Paje which is about a 15min drive. Depending which of the 3 properties you stay in, the walk to Breakfast can be 5-10mins, either along the beach during low tide or the village during high tide.
- Rabia (8/5): Lovely stay, great villa just need a few adjustments - Very spacious grounds villa good size for a family of 4 No phone or tv in the villa, no private beach, location of our villa was next to the walkway to the village so you can hear the villagers shouting at each other going fishing at 5-6am, food was a good choice, staff were amazing from housekeeping to waiters great team, I personally would like small water bottles in the villa that you can refill yourselves, also not signposted very well the taxi driver couldn’t find the location
- Iancu (10/5): Exceptional -
- Irene (9/5): If you want a super relaxing uncrowded location here is the place! Attentive staff and friendly charming locals - Only 4 villas per pool so often we had it to ourselves. The stretch of beach was amazing, the sea strong but invigorating and wonderful Not keen on the sliding doors as they can jam. But the staff fixed it promptly for us.
- Thomas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alana (10/5): Fantastic hotel, staff, and facilitates in a great location. - Cleanliness, location right on beach, staff, food, pools, basins to rinse sand off of feet before entering room/pool, spacious and quiet rooms, very chic and charming hotel, airport pick up....I can go on! Overall, a fantastic hotel and location. I would definitely stay here again. That there was no restaurant at the building I was staying at (it was at the other location). It was a 5 minute walk away along the beach, which was lovely, but a little challenging with high tides. There's also a path through the village where staff can escort you if needed.
- Titilayo (10/5): Quiet, peaceful and relaxing. - The staff - everyone was warm, generous and kind. The manager was present all through. She went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable.
- Adriaan (10/5): Exceptional - The personal attention from everyone in the friendly staff was truly exceptional. The breakfast was amazing, the beds comfortable and the location and views were magnificent. We ended up booking an extra night and will gladly come again.
- Khaled (10/5): Exceptional -
- Reyna (10/5): Great experience. Great place. Amazing people. - Service & People were just amazing
- Khalil (8/5): Amazing 😎 - Clean , calm , great staff, delicious breakfast Low shared facilities
- Abel (8/5): Great -
- Artem (10/5): All in all great. - Superb location. Polite and attentive stuff. Great facilities. Themed evenings in the restaurant were nice. Some little things weren’t quite in order. The bedding in general wasn’t in a good condition and comfortable (especially pillows).
- Francesco (10/5): Wonderful - 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!
- Trudeau (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zoe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Patrick (10/5): Great place to stay, but you really need a car if you want to explore. - The apartment was really spacious and quite literally a stones' throw from the beach. The staff were excellent in all aspects and always happy to help make our stay as comfortable as possible. Special mentions go to Diana, Hope, Hans and Shimsa for making our stay there special. The breakfasts were basic but good, and you can order eggs (boiled, scrambled, poached, omlette) which were really tasty. The lunch/dinner options are also very good and there is the option of room service. Highly recommend the live music evenings which also has a BBQ and buffet with local food. There wasnt much we didnt like...if I was being critical I think the cleaning of the pool could be reviewed/adjusted as our son's hair turned green due to the chemicals being used. The place is so close to the beach, which is a positive but it does attract alot of unwanted attention from locals trying to call you over. You cant relax for 10 minutes without being distracted and hustled. However you learn to ignore their requests. The hotel is situated in the middle of Jambiani village, the roads are quite bad (like most of Zanzibar) and there isnt a great choice of shops/restaurants within walking distance. Luckily we hired a car as we found this a more affordable way to explore the island...if you are staying at Jambiani Villas you may want to consider hiring a car also, it can be expensive to visit places etc
- Thomas (10/5): Very comfortable. - We enjoyed everything about the property. The staff made us feel at home and were very helpful. The property is directly on the beach and we enjoyed the pool overlooking the ocean. The room was clean and comfortable. Food was delicious.
- Lindsey (10/5): Exceptional -
- Larissa (9/5): Superb - The staff so kind!
- Duncan (10/5): Loved Jambiani Villas, highly recommend - Everyone was incredibly helpful and really looked after our little girls (5 years & 10 months). I would highly recommend Jambiani villas for families... The only downside was the lack of bar/ restaurant at our property but the short walk along the beach was always pleasant.
- Shazia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dan (10/5): Jambiani Gem - Everything! It was absolutely perfect! The villas are extremely nice designed, with attention to details. Also the restaurant had very good and tasty food. I highly recommend this place!
