Hotels on first line in Mjini Magharibi Region

The bungalow has everything you need and has nice interior (we also got free upgrades because of low season:) ), the daily housekeeping is great and the staff (bar/restaurant staff and housekeeping) is amazing: so kind, do anything to make sure you’re having a good time, and really helpful

Our experience at Garden Beach was more than a vacation. It was a true and authentic experience. We received everything we needed and more. The property is managed exclusively by locals, and we were truly fortunate

The staff cannot do enough for you to ensure you holiday is a memorable one. Jambiani beach is white sand,clear seas and great for snorkeling. A massive thank-you to Vanessa for a great holiday

Exactly what we were looking for to enjoy seven relaxing days! The bungalows were comfortable and well maintained, with the rooms cleaned daily. We loved the beach, and during low tide we enjoyed using the pool

Where is the paradise on earth ? On Garden beach bungalows on Jambiani. We book a room with my mom for 1 week, it was the deluxe room with balcony facing the sea

Swimming is good as the tide is coming in or going out but the beach is very flat so between those, it goes out a long ways. They will help book tours and drivers

The bungalows are 30 seconds from the beach, where you can see the sunset, there is an all-night bar from midday to 7am, at sunset a fire is lit, we did not hear any noise from our bungalow

The mpole bungalows, is a quiet charming place to stay, it has a small swimming pool, set within a garden with fruit trees and swinging day beds. It has a small restaurant, and bar

We had fantastic stay for one night with our family. Mnana have unbelievable amazing sea view, rooms is big and 5 star standard. Swimming pool was great as well. Staff friendly and helpful. Thank you Mnana!

The hotel is very well located and very close to the beach. The staff is extremely friendly, always smiling and helpful, and the manager is also very kind

The breakfast is delicious, and the swimming pool is absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an excellent stay

Went to lounge by the pool and have their prawn curry, which was excellent. Friendly staff and a great view of the ocean!

One of best places iv stayed and im well travelled. Staff are truly amazing its a true boutique piece if heaven hotel. Food wonderful cocktails lovely right on the beach

The location is on the beach too. The room was clean had air conditioning. There was a mosquito net on the bed also but we didn't need it

The direct access to the public beach added an enjoyable aspect to our downtime

Beautiful setting, private restaurant to enjoy the sunset from. The check in lady was very kind and upgraded our rooms to seafront for free! Rightly priced, restaurant prices the best of the hotels, and food is good too

Very good peaceful hotel . Very unique different from all others.. nature and sea both u can meet ... As very complicated built on some kind of Hill area .. Good Service Good specious Rooms.. Very Different experience

Access is to a very public beach with stoney sand as opposed to the common white sand

Friendly stuff, confortablr rooms, good food and best entertiment team ever. Clean pool, security 24/7, show every evening, not too many people. Quite nights, every toom with terrace and monkeys arround

We stayed in this little resort fro one week and we couldn't ask for anything better. The staff was kind and always available to help you

The cuisine is delicious and we could also ask for snacks all day long with all inclusive package. It overlooks Nungwi beach with is the most iconic in Zanzibar

large rooms simply furnished. the mattresses in room 109 are as hard as concrete, but this is not the case in all rooms. the beach is great, clean and you can swim all day. sometimes noise from the hotel next door

The drinks, though adequate, seemed slightly diluted. Additionally, our room had a noticeable moldy smell, and both the room and beach towels were of poor quality, detracting from the otherwise enjoyable stay

Vera Sunset Beach Resort in Zanzibar boasts a splendid location right by the beach, offering picturesque views and a serene atmosphere

This is a place where you can really relax. Aircon is working well and you have a fridge in the room. The pool area is just fantastic. The new staff is very friendly

Kiwengwa Beach is amazing and it is a short walk to the sandbank when there is low tide

You have a lot of different options you can choose from. Chicken curry and enchiladas are highly recommended for lunch or dinner. The South African white wine for 25 bucks per bottle is excellent

Compared to other nearby accommodations, it has a very good price/value ratio. The best Italian restaurant in the whole of Zanzibar is also just 150 metres away

The hotel will be renamed shortly and is not on booking dot com yet so if you want to explore this paradise yourself, drop them an email or WhatsApp. Highly recommended by frequent travelers

The hotel's commitment to sustainability is commendable, with fresh local seafood and produce featured in their delicious meals

The location is right on the beach with beautiful sunrise views from the balcony. The beach is one of the finest on the island

Utupoa is PURE BLISS!We arrived late, but our transfer was sorted - thanks for the smooth pickup! Joyce, Maria and all the staff made us feel at home instantly - they (and everyone else!) go ABOVE AND BEYOND

Food? Fabulous! Beaches? Stunning, with epic walks. Our upstairs room was spacious, cool, and had VIEWS FOR DAYS (pool + beach = perfection)

Metawme was peaceful and quiet, and even though the sea isn’t always swimmable, we enjoyed our walks along the shore

With the beach literally on the back door and the incredible vibes of this extensive tree house- like building it was the most idyllic location. I can’t not mention Joyce, the owner

Utupoa was the absolute highlight of our trip! The staff really made the experience special, Maria was so sweet and kind, Noura was amazing, and Joyce, the owner, was just incredible

We went scuba diving from a company which is 5 minutes away on foot, and also went to the famous restaurant The Rock which is 15 minutes away in car. Milele Beach Resort offers a sea-view massage spot for couples

We had booked a horrible hotel in Nungwi, which risked destroying our honeymoon. We started searching around and found this beautiful boutique hotel "Milele Beach Resort"

There is also a pool, and a lot of sunbeds with traditional parasols/sun covers. You can order drinks and lunch to the sunbeds

This beautiful hotel is owned and operated by the italian power-woman Lisa (Isabella) and her nice son Niccolo. The resort is on the beach, so you can go swimming in the ocean or go for long beach walks

This was an excellent spot to stay, quiet beach, really lovely sized room. Staff were really attentive without being in the way. Also try the gnocchi from the restaurant it was exceptional!

There is music one day each week, where a local band plays music and invites the guests to dance. It was very funny, and even Lisa and her family joined the dance because her birthday coincided with the music day

There are plenty of comfortable places to sunbathe and lounge both in and out of the sun. The pool has a few different layers on the edge so you can either have just your feet in the water or your legs or your half body

The hotel also has easy access to the beach via a staircase. There are also a Masai tribe that guard the hotel 24/7 they are Incredibly friendly and will teach you a lot about themselves and the country/community

Dont go here on a Monday Very nice hotel next to the beach, friendly staff. But dont go here on a Monday! We have stayed at noisy hotels in bar streets before, but this was something else

The breakfast was perfect nothing too over the top, but a lot of options! Only downfall was there was a storm and the power went out and they were having issues with the generator so we didn’t have power and then when we did get power it kept going on and off in the middle of the night and the AC would go off and it was so hot in the middle of the night! Otherwise great stay!

The rooms themself are very modern with a solid WiFi connection and powerful Air conditioning. Plenty of electrical outlets which power both UK and EU plugs

One recommendation I make is to always ask the hotel staff to book you a taxi as they can get a good ‘local price’ they make sure you don’t pay too much

The staff made the hotel worth staying The staff was beyond .

Fantastic breakfast I would say they have the best breakfast I have tried in Stone Town, and trust me, I have tried several.

Well located near to the centre of Stonetown, friendly helpful staff. Could do with a bar up on the rooftop terrace.

We enjoyed our stay at Asmini Palace. From the pre-trip communication with Mohammed, the manager, who kindly reserved our room for us, to the receptionist (sorry I forgot his name), the service was very welcoming

Good in overall Good breakfast Helpful staff Location is within the town center

One night when there was a power cut and the small streets were dark, we felt a bit uneasy walking, but the night guard walked us halfway and made sure we were okay we really appreciated that

Nice restaurant with great food and music. Rooms wear okay, but to many people hassling you for money, to buy things both near the rooms and on the beach.

Superb Hotels and Great price Value for money Family Get Away Peaceful. Great Sea View Beach Hotel with Resturant. Crystal clear water can see different colors in the ocean on the beach.

It was not such a big deal, the girls working there always made sure you have everything you need. But for example my mum doesnt speak english and it is easier for her to choose what she sees from the buffet

My boyfriend and I had a fantastic stay at Zenobia Hotel! The beachfront location is absolutely gorgeous waking up to the sound of the waves and the stunning view was a highlight of the trip

The hotel has a good location for swimming in low tide (clean beach) or high tide (water comes up to the steps of the deck so it is beautiful)

Good place for you to stay central to shops and restaurants and beach activities are great the place is a bit run down with faulty aircon units No TV's and No cettels in rooms on the down side in the surrounding area the security /local beach Boys will swarm woman and girls if not accompanied by men and drugs are freely available But I would come again to stay

Great experience and service at affordable price. Bed and breakfast for 2 cost 80,000tsh. Breakfast on the roof with sea view is amazing they serve fruits omelet chapati and tea. Located near the ferry 5 - 10 mins walk

Really nice stay on a budget! The service was amazing, we got a lot of help from the reception and especially their offer for different tourist activities (for a good price) was much appreciated

Very good hotel not too far from ferry and with reasonable prices. Building in and out looks like it was built or remodelled not long time ago so you can expect many things still like new here

Wifi, functional breakfast with fruits, tea, juice and eggs, a nice location close to the ferry port, and just a 10-15 minutes walk from Forodhani park and areas around

Especially as we were two young girls who wanted to use more time exploring the city of Stone Town and surroundings rather than sitting in the hotel very much

Did blue safari, spice tour and city tour, and would have loved to try even more if our stay was longer

Remarquable stay in this wonderful hotel, on the beach, with view on the turquoise sea ! Excellent food with regularly changing menus. Very friendly and smiley Team, with special thanks to Senzo, Caroline, Sarah, Rajab.

The hotel is right on the beach, with a beautiful pool and a relaxing, peaceful vibe

Wow! We had an amazing time here. Firstly, the swimming pool is stunning! So clean and a perfect size. The hotel is well maintained and all staff are so positive and friendly

We (German family) spent a great week in the Blue Oyster Hotel: - amazing views from the spacy rooms and balcony to the sea and nice garden with palm trees - the pool and the relaxed atmosphere is very nice - the breakfast and dinner was great

I stayed here for a month in December 2025. Very beautiful hotel and gorgeous swimming pool. Literally on the beach which is stunning. Very helpful and friendly staff, lovely food. Very relaxing/ quiet place to be

Tip: if you want to try the chef’s special dishes for dinner, let them know about two hours in advance – it’s worth it! Overall, a perfect place for couples or anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway

Impeccable stay and experience at this place. The place is run by a family led by Stefania. Rooms are excellent, location is right on the beach. Food quality is top tier, and I would recommend their pizzas and pastas

We stayed there for 6 days and the staff was the nicest, in the end as I came to the counter for lunch and said “one Hawaii pizza please” -for the 6th time, me and the staff giggled for ourselves

This place was amazing - clean rooms with good wifi + AC + hair dryer and it was right on the beach. The food was also really good! The host, Stefania, is from Italy so their pizza and pasta was delicious

We spent more than two weeks travelling around Zanzibar, staying in various places and visiting many sights and restaurants – and we can say with conviction that our stay at Bahari Beach was the best

One evening we said to her that we were travelling to Stone town afterwords, she continued into her office and found a map and showed all the points of interest and where the best coffee was

She was very kind and welcoming, we had a super late flight and she let us hang around and use their bathroom + shower until we had to leave! I would definitely stay here again!

clean bungalows, linen, house cleaning, beautiful pool, 24 hour security, great spa, bar and restaurant excellent service! The staff was amazing and made sure all my needs were met

My favorite beach! Full of Maasai businesses and good deals which I have enjoyed.

Its the most amazing place ever meet and good beach

Paje beach is fantastic place to stay even you have low budget is fine cause they have different categories of rooms. Thank you

New Jambo Bungalows in Paje, Zanzibar, has to be my most enjoyable and memorable travel experience

I would definitely recommend a stay at New Jambo and look forward to my next visit 👌

I saw this hotel from the beach, looked inside and when i saw the rooms and prices… i just moved there immidiately! This was a great choice. Climat in this please is impossible to forge. You have my recomendation 100%

I had a great time at this place! The staff is so amazing and friendly, especially the young lady Vanessa. I definitely want to come back and spend more time at PiliPili beach house. Asanteni sana 🤍

All of time I spent in this place was absolutely lovely. I will never forget the party you are making! Perfect sea food, veggies, cocktails

If you are looking for a place, where you can spend time with local people with great food, nice music, OCEAN VIEW ❤️ they are best. You will remember this time for ever. See you in december Hasan! 🌴🌴🌴

Very helpful and friendly staff👌🏼, Daily Events which makes your day absolutely wonderful, If you’re looking for a small nice hotel around Jambiani here’s the one. Highly recommended Pilipili house✅

The food really good and accosted my food allergies. The view when you walk in is beautiful. The staff helped me pull off Birthday party for best friend turning 50. They came out singing for her

The hotel was not only lovely and immaculately clean, but the staff there truly made the experience extraordinary. Their professionalism combined with their genuine warmth made our stay feel like a slice of paradise

Had a lovely stay, the staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Nice hotel in a very quiet and pleasant place by the beachfront.

Fabulous! This hotel celebrates simplicity to perfection. The attention to detail and care for guests is amazing. All the amazing staff really care about the guests and it shows. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

On our arrival day, the hotel honoured local boys by handing out football kits, which was deeply touching. The hotel is also involved in several projects such as beach cleaning and assisting at the local kindergarten

Special kudos to Raphael, the assistant manager, who is often seen tidying up the beach with local residents and playing football with them on Mondays

The reception staff, Edina and Christine, were always welcoming, and the laundry team, including Habati, did a fantastic job. Thanks to the housekeeping team for keeping the place spotless

You cannot really swim in the sea but honestly the pool is incredible. The nature around the hotel is whaou!!! Also there are friendly animals inside the property

Came to Zanzibar with friends and picked this hotel. The ambiance is fantastic, there's a faint floral scent when you enter, and the breakfast is delicious. It's really nice, definitely a resort-level hotel.

The accommodation was really relaxing specially the the view from the pool & the breakfast is really good, the stuff is really friendly specially ( John)

Very good, all rooms have private pools and sea views. The rooms are large, the hotel has various vehicles, there are motorboats one kilometer away, and it takes 20 minutes to see dolphins.

My husband and I just returned from an 8 night vacation at Kasha and had a wonderful time celebrating our first anniversary! The sea view bungalow was perfect for the week- sizable, private and nice decor touches

We enjoyed the spacious room with the nice patio / terrace and plunge pool outside our room. Also the nice pool down at the ocean bar was wonderful

Beautiful ambient surroundings & clean environment by the sea with friendly staff. & serving tasty food as well. Good deals are also offered to non- residents who wish to swim & have meals in the hotel as well.

Great location, great beach bar, best bartenders (Andrew and Juma). Had the most memorable nights here hanging out with the staff! Food was also pretty good and affordable. Rooms were comfortable and clean

The rooms were lovely and clean - we had Sunrise, which had a lovely view out to sea. The bar was very relaxed and did great food, I can highly recommend the pizza! All the staff were friendly and helpful

Although the rooms are small, most of our time was spent in hammocks, at the overwater bar and restaurant and walking along the beach at low tide

Easy beach access with nice upper level for high tides

We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a peaceful vacation in an exotic setting, with quality services and wonderful people. Congratulations to the manager PS: We will definitely return in December 2026
