The hotel staff was superior. After having a terrible time finding the place in the evening, tired from a long day we got here and our room was not what we thought we were getting nor was it ready. Weird as they knew we were coming but did Not seem ready for us. After ordering diner we ate, felt better and finally got a proper room. Hard evening. However next day was perfect. From morning breakfast we went for a walk on the beach, swam in the pool! Breakfast was perfect and really good. Good in general is superior. The owner really took special care of us and we even got super late check out! A wonderful ending to our trip. I would come again and stay longer. Felt so at home it was embarrassing. Thought we were taking too much space! Very grateful for my Tanzanian brothers taking such good care of my family and o. Plus points: daughter and wife loved it! Very relaxing! Will come again

So firstly let me tell you , our original hotel cancelled on us last minute and I’m the type of girl who researches everything so I was in a bit of a panic but chose Jambiani white sands bungalows! What an amazing little boutique hotel! I was not disappointed from the moment of arrival we were made to feel very welcome. If your looking for a five star all inclusive then this is not your place. Instead this is a small hotel directly on the beach where you can really experience Zanzibar with the locals with amazing staff and service. Our room was upgraded to a beach view and waking up every morning to the view of the beach and ocean was spectacular. Room was comfortable, with a very comfy bed and shower room and balcony. The room also had a fan and AC which was much needed at night! The staff in particular Aziza and the chef Jacob are absolutely amazing who made sure we had all we needed, cooking us some amazing meals and also some meals that were not on the menu which we asked for! These two really made our holiday amazing and this is one of the reasons I would come back and I wouldn’t usually go to a destination twice! The beach what can I say about the beach it’s absolutely stunning with the tide coming in and out a few times a day and sometimes it’s so shallow you can walk waist deep for miles. There is lots of sellers on the beach and massage ladies and also boat boys who will offer you a sail for a really good price and even snorkel or swim.

Perfect place to relax
Once you reach there, no complaint. The beach is amazingly beautiful. Owner Ali is wonderful gentle guy. His recommendation on restaurants was perfect match to our demand. Flexible service for lunch box arrangement for excursion was also helpful as we could have it on the way to the destination. Jambiani is a bit far from any tourist place, but to spend time relaxed, it is a perfect choice. No beer nor wine was available there, which you need to know.

Amazing location
Amazing beach bungalows with great service. Restaurant serves delicious food (bare in mind a long wait). Staff is friendly and attentive. Located in quiet area where you will have a chance to meet local villagers, play football with kids and see seaweed farms. Unique experience, this place is for you if you want to stay away from expensive all look alike resorts. You can visit the village, eat great food, chat with villagers, don’t worry they are nice and won’t hassle you.
