Uhuru, the owner of this place, was very welcoming and any request was fulfilled within minutes. Bungalows are very clean, swimming pool as well. Lots and lots of space for chilling and relaxing with the view of the sea. Chefs were creating interesting and tasty dishes from Swahili kitchen. Staff was very friendly as well. This place is great for animal lovers as they have lots of cats, dogs and monkeys. Ahsante Sana!

The only thing to like was location. Based on the was we were treated, i would never recommend this place to anyone. There are ants and insects in every room, food is terrible and cold, run by men that dont even shower/wash their clothes( and they’re the same ones cooking and serving). I saw one of them breaking ice with his bare hands and putting it in someone’s cocktail. If you are black, regardless of nationality, just be aware that you will be served after all the white people are served.. and your room will have no hot water. White priviledge is real even in useless places like this. iI strongly recommend the neighboring resort ( Pakachi Beach Resort) with a pier and an island. Their food is great, hot, its clean, service is wonderful and staff are clean and friendly.

We had a pleasant stay at a white sandy beach in a quite region between Paje and Jambiani. The hotel offered excellent meals in a daily changing variation. We loved the nice stile of the bungalows with the relaxing leisure areas with the views to the different blue colour sea and the possibilities of nice long walks at the white sandy beaches. Our 12 nights on Zanzibar in this hotel were very relaxing after visiting Tanzania and Uganda.

Good choice

Funky, low key beach resort near Jambiani. We saw several rooms, and all were very clean, although somewhat basic in terms of in-room amenities. Most have a large furnished private deck. The grounds and pool were very well-maintained. The atmosphere is very informal with lots of cool and cozy spots to relax along the beach in hammocks, lounge chairs and bed swings. The only downside is that the ocean's not ideal for swimming due to exposed rocky areas at low tide. But the pool is great! The food in the restaurant was excellent, and there are other resort restaurants within easy walking distance.

This is a lovely resort, right on the beach. The pool was clean and well kept and food of a good standard. Our stay was made even better as we were given a large house for our exclusive use, despite paying for a double room, but the standard chalet rooms were extremely comfortable.

Lugnt och avslappnat

Mycket bra valuta för pengarna men det är långt till allt och du är i stort sett tvungen att äta på hotellets egen restaurang, vilken varierar stort i kvalité - vissa rätter var fantastiska, andra rent usla. Som andra också skriver, kass frukost. Stranden är även den inte den bästa, mycket bråte i form av sjögräs å dyl. Samt massa vass sten. Stor skillnad på ebb och flod. Med andra ord, är stranden viktig för er, ta ett annat hotell uppe i Paje. Rummen däremot fina, takfläkt och veranda/balkong. Vi hade två olika bungalows, fick byta då vi delade den ena med råttor - vilket personalen iofs tog itu med så fort det gick, så ja skulle inte va orolig att boka för den sakens skull. Trevlig personal, väldigt goda utrymmen för avkoppling, både kring pool och beachside. Wifi och safety deposit i restaurang/reception. Kort sagt, ett bra hotell för bra peng om ni inte är rädda för att gå en bit till de riktigt fina stränderna eller andra restauranger/affärer.

At the beach with the best food!

The best food in Zanzibar. Hotel is just at the beach so you can enjoy the view and fresh breezy wind. It is clean but quite old. If you want to enjoy the island and you just want a nice place to sleep go there.

Underbar liten pärla i Jambiani!

Mysigt och enkelt boende direkt på stranden. Fantastisk god mat, jätteduktig kock. Personalen var jättetrevlig och hjälpsam. Bokade alla våra turer, transfer m m via dom till bra priser. Pga av tidvattnet så kunde vattnet vara "borta" större delen av dagen men då fanns ju poolen eller kunde man gå bort till Paje och bada. Vi hade en fantastisk tid på Mbuyuni men vill man ha mer party eller fler restaurang alternativ så ska man nog välja nåt annat.

Hotel

Det er et fint strandhotel for rimelige penger i afrikansk stile. Hotel ligger i et veldig rolig området mellom Jambiani og Padja. Det er en fin plass til å slappe av. Betjening er veldig hjelpsom og hyggelig. Når du begynner å kjede deg kan du bestille rimelige og varierende satsing turer i Zanzibar. Maten var helt OK. På grunn av helt ubrukelig for svømming strandlinja hotel har en fin basseng. Hvis man vil svømme i sjøen så beste og nærmeste strand er Padja strand. Vi kose oss her.

Et dejligt hotel hvor de tager sig godt af deres gæster. Jeg rejste alene og oplevede at de var meget hjælpsomme. Boede i en banda og har intet at klage over der, samtidig er Jambiani et skønt område. Elsker tidevandet og at det er muligt at gå på stranden uden at blive overfaldet af sælgere. Er man til fest hver aften, så er det måske ikke lige hotellet, men de er der er dog muligheder i område.

Buena relación calidad/precio

Tiene una buena relación en cuanto a calidad y precio, pero sí buscas grandes lujos no es el más acertado, el personal no habla ni una pizca de español, la playa es lo peor para mi gusto, demasiadas rocas como para bañarse y cuando baja la marea hay que andar mucho entre estas para llegar y aún así a saber sí hay más...

Tolle Bandas am Strand

Die Anlage liegt direkt am weißen Strand. Es gibt einfache Zimmer, die auch OK sind. Hier sind die Betten aber recht klein. Aber die Bandas sind schon klasse. Kann man nur empfehlen. Geräumig, gut ausgestattet ... Frühstück ist auch Top. Auch der Pool ist toll. Der muss auch da sein, da man wegen Ebbe und Flut nicht immer baden kann. Diese Anlage werden wir hoffentlich nochmal besuchen. War ein toller Urlaub und die Leute auf Sansibar und überhaupt in Tansania sind sehr freundlich und alle gut drauf :)
