"This is the best villa we’ve stayed at. It’s right on Jambiani beach which is a really beautiful and calm beach (compared to Paje and those in the north such as Nungwi and Kendwa). It has only 3 villas with a pool, so there’s privacy and it’s quiet.
We stayed 4 nights at the second floor villa (Bibi Juu) which had a large balcony where we had our breakfast while looking out at the Indian Ocean. Breakfast was provided by the lovely housekeeper, Rehema, and was a huge spread of eggs, fruits,...

"This was a nice place for my family but not many options for eating. The host was exceedingly nice and accommodating. For the type of services we usually get, it was average but the cost was very doable. "

"Struttura nuova e molto ben curata! Personale a dir poco fantastico, gentilissimo e disponibile a qualunque richiesta.
Unica pecca, il percorso per raggiungere il mare. Bisogna attraversare un villaggio, che a priori potrebbe intimorire gli ospiti ma che poi alla fine risulta invece una piacevole esperienza, dove si vede come vivono i residenti. "

"Lovely place, you get what you pay for. Staff is awesome, great fishing tours with experienced staff. We choose a cheaper room, and beds were a bit hard - guess we could have payed more for better standard. All in all, would recommend for sure. "

"I do NOT recommend that hotel. Old style boxxy hotel from the 1980'. Super small bathroom and shower with a plastic curtain. For the toilet, you litterally stand in the shower : unacceptable. Ok it is clean and there is a small unattractive pool. It is worth no more than 50 €, a sort of ok 2 stars lodge. No Zanzibar dream at all.
Breafast is ok.
Hotel is situated in second line from the beautiful beach. There are much nicer hotels ON the beach.
Without a car, you are trapped in an ugly back...

"Wanted something different and quiet from the north side and enjoyed my time here for some rest and relaxation. Going out to the beach in low tide was excellent. "

"Staff are very willing to assist with any request and always with a smile.
Excellent fresh food options and fantastic alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks.
Very clean room and property.
Safe and secure property."
"This property was amazing, and so was the staff. We stayed for 6 days and everyday the staff greeted us and were super nice. The rooftop restaurant was delicious ! Everything we ate was amazing. We felt super safe even though outside of the hotel the area isn’t the best , but we still felt safe enough to explore. The beds were comfortable, and internet was good. We did experience 2 short power outages. Other than that, I would definitely come back here. "
"Icah and Salome were great. Icah made sure my EVERY NEED was meet. Some multiple times. She took very very very good care of me. Will be coming back again. "
"We came with our two teenage daughters. Amazing stay staff fantastic. Ivan the owner is a fantastic host and helped organise trips. Beautiful boutique hotel, we will be coming back. "
"Fabulous stay at this very quiet, clean, secure resort. Very comfortable room. Staff are very attentive. Beautiful beach. Highly relaxing! Really enjoyed the Swahili buffet and music! "
"This is an amazing property to stay in Zanzibar. We were upgraded to the frangipani villa which was spacious and well appointed. The private pool was great. The main swimming pool is huge and doesn’t get too crowded. The food options at the main dining room were good with a lot of vegetarian options for breakfast and dinner. Beverage options are nice and reasonably priced. The complimentary fruits at mid morning and ice cream at mid afternoon around the pool area are a great touch. The staff is polite and extremely helpful. We had to see the onsite doctor as one of us wasn’t feeling too well one day. The staff promptly arranged for the doctor to arrive who was extremely helpful and thoughtful in his advice which we highly appreciated. The doctor didn’t charge us for his visit and medication even when we asked if he was sure. As has been discussed previously in other reviews, most beaches in Zanzibar have big tidal ranges and at low tide, the sea retreats by a lot. We didn’t swim on the beach for that reason and there’s also a lot of sea weed that the staff tries to clean every day. Nevertheless, the main and private swimming pools more than made up for it. There are a lot of monkeys around the resort and the staff warn you at the outset to keep the doors closed. It is advice that must be heeded to. The resort is family friendly. That’s great if you have kids of your own but if you don’t, it can feel a bit like school nursery during breakfast / dinner time. "
"This resort is pure luxury, all of the staff was amazing. Extremely clean & the room service was top tier , they clean your room multiple times out the day . There dinner restaurants gives very romantic vibes with entertainment. You really don’t have to leave the resort . They kept there beach extremely clean, there pool was amazing, delicious food & once again the service was number 1 ! Definitely 10/10"
"This place is AMAZING! If you want a luxurious stay with good food and kind people go! I enjoyed every minute of my stay here and I would gladly stay here again and again. I went for my birthday and it was the best experience of my life."
"Great property. Loved the stay here. Advised us of the local rules and things to pay attention to. I enjoyed the beachfront and the ability to lounge basically on the beach. The resturant had good options and get fresh juice.
Only drawback was the wi-fi strength and stability inside the room, it kept cutting in and out. Also there was a limit to the amount of devices that would be connected with the code given.
Overall, would definetly recommend staying here. "
"We are a retired couple from Australia cycling the world on bicycles. This hotel was simply amazing! The staff so welcoming, the room had the best view ever being right on the beach, the food and service was top notch. And the price was very affordable. A hidden gem in paradise and not over run by Europeans either like many of the hotels we’ve stayed at. Highly recommend!
"
"I really enjoyed my stay. I would recommend this resort — great food variety, friendly staff members, and lots of things to do at the resort. The pool is great, and the beach area is amazing with breathtaking views and sightseeing.

10/10 Excellent
"I enjoyed my stay here at The Dreams Hotel. All the staff were very nice, and I really liked the pool area and Beach location. My room was clean, decorated beautifully and the ocean suite view was absolutely breath taking. I would definitely recommend this hotel. "
"Our stay at the Bamboo Hotel was truly wonderful. The grounds are absolutely stunning, and the unique architectural design—where you can gaze out at the ocean as if it’s a living, breathing TV screen—is incredibly relaxing.
The rooms were spotless and clearly well-maintained; the staff does an exceptional job keeping everything clean and comfortable. Service was excellent—everyone was warm, attentive, and eager to make our stay enjoyable.
The food was delicious, and we especially loved the fresh juices—they were refreshing and full of flavor.
Overall, we highly recommend the Bamboo Hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway surrounded by beautiful waters and top-notch service."
"This is a beautiful hotel expect the roads. The staff were incredibly nice and friendly and the food was good. Breakfast left something to be desire but overall was a great stay. We enjoyed it and had fun. It is also close to the beach which was a plus."
"From the time I arrived to the hotel both of the front desk people were so nice a male and a female(i am horrible with names unfortunately) I had to wait for my room to check in, which was not an issue. I sat at fhe beach for a while then had lunch. The hotel isa small boutique hotel and i loved the seclusion. Every day wqs beautiful there and my oceanfront room was gorgeous. All the foods and drinks were amazing! 10/10 had the best birthday vacation I've ever had and they made it very special. All of the staff was so kind"
"What a great place to have your holiday. We’re can I start the hotel so beautiful location is perfect is like paradise next to the beach and I know is mark 3 star but I felt like I was 4 star. The place was clean and well maintained everyday house keepers cleaning your room every day. The food is so delicious and not to mention the drinks are top 10. Reasonable price. Now I want to say how great the staff are. From the gardeners and the house keeping and specially the restaurant and bar staff alway makes you feel like special from the moment you arrived. Now I would like to mention one special person that made our holiday magical Mr Francis,he goes above and beyond to make sure your taking care off and looked after, not just us I seen him with every visitor that arrived, massive smile polite and helpful all the time my holiday wouldn’t be the same if wasn’t for him. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who’s coming to znz for the honeymoon vacation or just a nice relaxing getaway. "
"We planned to stay at Blue Moon Resort for three nights but loved it so much that we extended our stay. The staff were friendly, hardworking, and welcoming. Check-in was simple, and we got a tour before heading to our private pool room, which was clean, spacious, and quiet. The pool was surrounded by large palm trees, making it incredibly relaxing to float and watch them sway. The room had a minibar, Netflix, and an Alexa station, and housekeeping cleaned it daily.
A couple of minor issues: the wardrobe only had four hangers, which wasn’t enough, and the shower temperature fluctuated between hot and cold every 30 seconds.
The restaurant overlooked the sea and served great food. I had local traditional meals, and one night, a BBQ buffet with live music created a lively atmosphere. Breakfast was à la carte, and the vegetarian option was excellent, with fresh avocado, stir-fried vegetables, and pineapple juice.
The grounds were well-maintained and peaceful. We loved relaxing on the jetty and swimming in the warm, calm sea. The beach was rocky, but we visited a Maasai shop nearby.
Bring cash (USD), as the card machine had issues. My wife had a reasonably priced full-body massage. The dogs and cats were tame, but a monkey on a lead seemed unfairly restricted.

"We visited as a couple for a few nights relax. This was the most amazing resort! The service and kindness of the staff was of the highest standard. Amazing villa and overall facilities. Beautiful resort 朗 I would highly recommend this resort!!! 🌸⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"I was looking for a chill, boutique style hotel to relax, S&S was a great choice. Great and attentive staff, nice & clean rooms.
The pool is pretty basic. Would be nice if it were bigger. "
"I paid for a beach view for my nieces to stay at Pearl Beach resort. On arrival they were placed on a room far away from the beach. After they informed the resort that wasn't the room i booked, they were moved to a suitable room. The resort had no electricity on their arrival which cost their router
to be down, however this was resolved in few hours later. Staff were helpful and apologetic of the situation. All in all they had pleasant stay and they informed me that the resort was a paradise and best place to relax. Grate for families. Thank you!"
"Location excellent, staff were lovely and very helpful, pool area great, beach beds shaded under coconut palms. Sea had a lot of weed but still fine for swimming. Food was good and they set up the dinner dining area in different locations including twice on the beach which was magical. "
"This small hotel is beautiful. The rooms are wonderful and very well stocked with all you need.
The staff are very helpful and all spoke very good English.
The food was amazing and very tasty, good selection of veggie stuff for the wife too.
Overall just a great stay."
