We stayed a few days in this lovely place in the quiet town of Jambiani on the east coast. We booked the hut upstairs, which was so great. We had our own veranda and bathroom. Kim, his brother Hasan and his staff are so friendly and helpful. Kim arranged interesting tours for us. Let him tell you about his plastic project! The vibe of this easygoing place is amazing. Food is terrific, made from what’s available, juices are great, breakfast also and at any time you wish. We recommend the Jambiani tour with Adam, which gives you great insight in village life. Located just about 150 meters from the beach, you can enjoy swimming to the max. At low tide you can take a walk along the beach. Looking for a special place, away from the hectic tourist area’s: look no further!

The staff were amazing, they were so happy to help with any questions we had. Anytime we sat out in the restaurant we got given crips or juice and it really made us feel at home. The breakfast included was also incredible and great value for money.

We just liked everything, when you want a personal stay with the tides and the vibes then stay with Kim and his amazing family. Their food is to die for and any requests isn't a problem. The neighborhood is also a big 10 meet the friendly locals and have a game off Poolbillard just 50 meters from Kasuku. Beach is at 1 min..walk and we loved it . Thank you Kim , Hassan and staff for giving us the feeling of being most welcome. We left after 1 week with trees in our eyes . Definitely come back to you very soon .

I am lucky enough to have stayed at many of the best hotels in the world, from the Ritz in London, to the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, and many more. But Katsuku Villa in Jambiani, Zanzibar, not only rivels the best, but often supasses them in many areas, although the accomodation is basic the rooms are clean and comfortable, and it is literaly a 30 seconds walk to the beach. But it is the freindlyness and approachabilty of the staff (nothing is too much trouble), you really feel like it is your home. Kim, the owner and his staff group could not provide better or freindlier service. But the true pearl in the crown is the wounderful fresh seafood served from the kitchen, ranging from authentic Zanzibar offerings to Swahile and indian style cooking. Exellent. Although there are many more prodigious hotels on the east coast, non are more freindy or serve such good food. I would recommend this place to anyone. If you truly want to sample life in Zanzibar, Katsuku Villa is a must.
