Set in Jambiani, 60 metres from Jambiani Beach, Kupaga Villas Boutique Hotel - Adults Only offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. With a restaurant, the 4-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The accommodation features room service, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests.

Everything - the staff is amazing (shout out to Charlotte, Jeremy and Martin as well as all the servers), the location is perfect, the facilities and the room are comfortable and cozy, and it is great value for money. I felt extremely safe as a solo female traveler and would recommend this place to anyone! The beach: I loved the changing tides, it made for a very special experience. In the morning, you could walk out so far and see people farming the algae. by the afternoon, the water was nearly to the hotel property and you could swim easily. In the late afternoon, all the local kids are out playing - girls running on the beach and boys playing football. At night, you can take your flash light on your phone and walk far out as it’s low tide, and admire the stars above you. The hotel room - so clean and comfortable! The hotel generally - beautiful and cozy. I loved sitting upstairs for meals and watching the sea and feeling the breeze. I could always find my own space that was serene and tranquil, even as a solo traveler. They even had water shoes and sunscreen you could use, which really came in handy! Prices were fair and reasonable. Food was delicious (excellent veggie options, great happy hour and cocktails, and excellent fruit juices). Activities- I went on a snorkeling trip on a traditional sail boat and it was amazing! The hotel organized it. Next door is a kite surf place and had I had more time, I would have loved to try. Jambiani is the best area - tranquil though well serviced, still feels authentic despite an obvious influx of tourists.

Exceptional staff! From Daniel at the entrance to all the people in the restaurant. The 3 managers where so kind and approachable, easy to talk with. The whole place feels like a big family! It was so sad to leave Jambiani Villas.

Facing the beachfront, Be Zanzibar Boutique Hotel offers 5-star accommodation in Mfumbwi and features an outdoor swimming pool, garden and terrace. Among the facilities at this property are room service and a concierge service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

When I think about my time in BeZanzibar, I have a smile on my face and a warm feeling in my heart. This place is just heaven on earth. Not only because the location is in paradise but because every single part is pure and authentic, with respect voor each other and for the local culture and people. The furniture is made of natural and durable materials in a beautiful and peaceful design. The food is fresh, local and so delicious that it also feeds the soul. Everyone is taking care of you in a lovely and personal way. You can combine enjoying the peace and quit with activities in and out the hotel. The yoga teacher is incredible and it is not possible not to feel her energy, so I would recommend to follow at least one lesson. The massages are so relaxing that I almost had one every day. Swimming with the dolphins and visiting the Salaam Aquarium was really incredible. Even during rain season, there was no place I’d rather be. For me it was the perfect retreat, but I would love to come back with my boyfriend, with friends and would also recommend it with children. This place has a place in my heart, so I’ll be back!I want to give a special Asante for Japhet, Hatham, Adam for making my stay memorable ♡

Facing the beachfront, The Nest Boutique Resort offers 5-star accommodation in Paje and features a fitness centre, garden and terrace. Offering a restaurant, the property also has a bar and a tennis court. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi.

It's hard to look back and think of anything I DIDN'T like about The Nest. From the moment I arrived until the moment I left, the experience was absolutely amazing. The owners have taken exceptional care in hiring the right people to take care of your entire experience. I had never done kite surfing before and the team at The Nest (Thomas was my instructor) were total professionals in handling a complete beginner. The rooms were spacious and very clean. AC worked 24/7 (which was crucial since it was crazy hot in Paje!). Also, the way the rooms open up to the main pool was the best way to meet all the guests staying at the resort. It felt as though I was leaving paradise when I had to eventually check-out from The Nest but hopefully will be back again!

    It was a small lovely hotel on the beach. The beautyful garden and the pool was very well kept. All service was outstanding. All staff was incredibly friendly and everyting we asked for was taken care of at once. The food was good and the chefs were flexible regarding my food intolerance. Bed was comfortable and AC effective. Lovely to sit on the balcony of the cottage in the afternoon and at sunset.

    One of the prettiest & best hotels in Jambiani. We booked 5 nights and ended up extending our stay. The view from our room was stunning! We stayed in room 10. Great facilities, beautiful settings right on the beach, nice restaurant with wood fired pizza. The service was 5 Stars. Thanks to the entire team and especially to Hida for making our stay a truly memorable experience 🙏 We will definitely come back!

    The Hotel is wonderfull, the restaurant is the best we had in Zanzibar. It is super clean, has a good location in Jambiani and it has everything you need. The hosts are out of this world, they have been most helpful and they are going out of their way to help you with everything you need, best hotel owners we’ve seen in the last decade at least. I totally recommand this place, would rate it higher than 5 stars if i could, oh and did i tell you about how good the food is? It can compete with any major hotel in Europe

    If ever you want to relax in a magic place, you should go to The Loop. Beautiful rooms, pied dans l'eau. The service was excellent, staff were very helpful and joyful, interior design tasteful, outstanding kitchen. Jambiani is still authentic and exclusive. Loved to stay there.

    No doubt about it; this place deserves 5 out of 5 stars! The apartments we stayed in had plenty of room for the two of us. The food at the restaurant is amazing and the ocean is gorgeous! Staff were very friendly and accomodating. Anything could be arranged: a taxi, a dive, a trip to Stone Town, a massage in the room etc. The only negative is we wish we could have stayed longer. If we ever come back to Zanzibar we will definitely visit again!
