"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,...

Amani Boutique Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were extremely kind and professional amongst the best I’ve seen in Tanzania. Small point - no TVs anywhere"

Fun Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything at fun beach was above our expectations. The rooms are very clean. The grounds and ocean view are spectacular, and the staff is the best, very welcoming and courteous. Margaret, who set up our day trips is the best and very easy to talk with. Rachel at the bar and restaurant is exceptional. She remembers the guests by name and is always smiling and cheerful. All the staff here are always greeting us with Jambo Jambo and asking if we need anything, and when we say everthing is great, it’s Hakuna matata. The pools are wonderful with the main pool by the seating area covered so you can enjoy the water all day without looking like a lobster on someone’s plate. We had 3 nights booked and were going to go to Nungwi, but after our 3 nights we did not want to leave. We were able to extend our stay another 4 nights. We are in the hospitality business also. We can not say enough about Fun Beach Hotel and staff!"

10/10 Excellent

"Room was beautiful as well resort was stunning. It was perfect stop in our honeymoon trip trough Zanzibar Staff is friendly and helpful. It is 5min from Paje but so much more beautiful then hotels/resorts there Highly recommend...and we will come back"
