Jambiani Villas 4 stars

Jambiani Beach, Jambiani

Jambiani Villas is located in Jambiani on three properties 400 m away from each other: Kaskazi, Katikati and Kusini. All properties are situated right on the beach and offer outdoor pools and free WiFi. 1. Villas are located in a wonderful, paradise like area and surrounded by the village. I could feel the local vibes but still I was feeling very safe ( there is always someone minding the place). The ocean is clean and safe for swimming once tide is high and excellent for long walks once tide is low. 2. Each day 2 bottles of water were delivered to villa, which made so much difference as we did not have to walk and carry water ourselves. There is also very good selection of teas and coffee available plus a safe in case you want to keep your belongings there. 3. The staff is the biggest asset there. Very helpful and always ready to help. They organised our trips the way we wanted. There is no need to go somewhere else to feel safe and happy, while exploring this beautiful island. 4. They have this beautiful lady there who prepared the most amazing sesame seed bread. Must try! 5. Whole place is very clean and food great. In summary this was our first trip to Africa so we were not sure if going directly without travel agent is not a mistake. It was not we had fabulous time.

It was perfection from the first moment! We spent a relaxing weekend enjoying the pool, walking on the beach, playing games, swimming in the ocean and eating the delicious food prepared by the Chef. We felt safe, pampered and well taken care of. Mr. Davies made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We can't wait to go back!
