Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Zanzibar Archipelago

Fukuchani Inn is wonderful - the staff is pleasant, kind, and very willing to help with whatever you might need. Everyone was friendly and we had a wonderful stay. The Inn is right near the ocean, a quick little walk to a beautiful (albeit rocky) beach, and it's very close (about 15 mins) from Nungwi beach. And the pool is lovely! We stayed in the 2-bedroom Villa and it was perfect for my family, plenty of space and very clean. And of course I have to mention Daisy, the basset hound!! Such a friendly and good girl :) We would love to come back one day - overall, great stay :) Friendly reminder to travelers, Tanzania and Zanzibar often have power outages, and this includes A/C - but they only lasted a few mins each time, and the staff aims to provide as comfortable a stay as possible.

Vlad is an honest and responsible owner, he met us, gave us an introductory tour of the city, and told us about local features. The accommodation turned out to be better than in the photo, very spacious, clean, all the necessary items for living were present. Your property's patio includes a grill and a small gazebo. Shops and cafes are 1-2 minutes walk from your home. The most gorgeous beach is a 5-minute walk from the house. Liquor store 30 seconds away. Everything is comfortable and accessible. I highly recommend this property and this owner!

Stayed 9 nights with my husband (June 2025). Great communication. Got collected at the airport by Suileman (sorry if spelling is wrong!)..we had a hire car so husband followed us behind..would be very hard to find otherwise. We were greeted by Said and Josephine with fresh coconuts... the house is just like the photos. Absolutely stunning. Beautiful gardens and clean pool with incredible views. Incredibly clean..bedrooms were gorgeous as was the bathrooms. Everything you may need was included. Staff were so helpful. Said took my husband out to show us where to buy bread. There are 2 local supermarkets...very expensive and mostly sold UK products! Air-conditioning upstairs but not down..I was incredibly hot. There are fans but still humid and hot. All in all..a fantastic holiday. The beach by villa isn't the best..very rocky..but beautiful views from patio area. Watch out for bugs and lizards.. but that's Africa! A truly memorable holiday. We will return one day. Easy 5 stars.

2 weeks in this house was really peaceful and nice. The general manager Mudy and also Anna were very proactive. The house is situated in a very quiet environment and we could walk 15 minutes to Kendwa beach. Otherwise we took moto taxis. I really recommand this place

Our stay at this beautiful villa exceeded all expectations! The pristine, large pool and stunning property were truly impressive, but what really made our experience unforgettable was Barbara, the amazing host. She went above and beyond, even arranging our airport pick-up and drop-off, making everything so easy. Her warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. Highly recommend staying here – it’s a perfect getaway!

This was a little slice of calm heaven. Would recommend 💯

Absolutely loved our stay here, the home was exactly like the photos if not better, we were welcomed with them most helpful, hands on, amazing staff. The location as well was perfect right on the beach and close to everywhere in Jambiani, would recommend this place if you are planning to come to Zanzibar !!

Cette villa est un vrai bijou ! Perchée face à la mer, elle offre une vue à couper le souffle — impossible de s’en lasser, on restait littéralement hypnotisés par le paysage. La piscine avec vue directe sur l’océan est un vrai bonheur, et l’accès à une plage calme et paisible rend l’endroit encore plus magique. Un véritable havre de paix ! Notre chambre, en face de la mer, était juste splendide — réveils avec vue, moments de sérénité, parfait. Un immense merci à David, toujours hyper accueillant, disponible et réactif (tu sais qu’on n’oubliera pas ton aide, vraiment 🙏). Mention spéciale aussi au chef : les plats étaient délicieux, et c’est un vrai plus quand on veut juste profiter à fond de la villa sans avoir à bouger. Excellent rapport qualité/prix ! Tout est spacieux, bien pensé, et l’ambiance qui s’en dégage est incroyablement apaisante. On repart avec des étoiles plein les yeux ✨ — Fati

Great stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The host was friendly and responsive, and the location was perfect for what we needed. Would definitely stay again!

Ein wunderbarer Ort um in Ruhe zu entspannen, gutes Essen zu genießen und den Kindern beim Spielen zuzusehen. Nathalie und ihr Mann Alwin waren stets erreichbar und äußerst hilfsbereit. Vor allem möchte ich aber Jo erwähnen, den Verwalter vor Ort. Er war immer bemüht und hat uns bestens versorgt. Das obligatorische High-Five von unserem Sohn (1J.) ließ er sich nie entgehen und hatte stets ein Lächeln auf den Lippen. Apropros: Das hausgemachte Frühstück war ein Traum, aber auch alle anderen angebotenen Speisen schmeckten hervorragend. Alwin hat das Kochen drauf :) Vielen Dank Marvelous! Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Beautiful and neat, great host. I recommend and definitely be back.

This is a fantastic place to stay! Saidi was excellent with communication. The area is fantastic to relax and he was so helpful with checkout and very reliable. My favorite stay in Zanzibar 😍

If you’re looking for a place that combines tranquility, art, and warm hospitality while keeping you close to the action, this is it. This is the one & I’ll definitely be back special thanks to the staff here. they are incredibly friendly, informative, and always eager to help, making the stay even more special. Chef Ahmed’s food is nothing short of mouthwatering.

Wir haben mit unseren Kindern ein paar wunderschöne Tage in Fumba Town verbracht! Es war sehr ruhig und sauber! Die Wohnung und der Service von Neema sind super! Wunderschöne Umgebung mit schönem Park, super Pool und das Meer ist auch sehr einladend bei Flut. Einkufsmöglichkeiten, Restaurants alles zu Fuss durch schöne, schattige Parks mit vielen Pflanzen, erreichbar. Super Spielplatz für die Kinder gleich vis à vis der Wohnung!

Many thanks for the nice Apartment. We enjoyed very much

A slice paradise with private pool, right next to the beach, very secure and quiet and wonderful hosts (and dogs!). We had a fantastic time with the family. Thanks again & we would recommend staying here in a heartbeat.

스톤타운내 위치한 이 숙소는 매우 깨끗하며 시장까지 도보로 5분 이내거리로 가까우며 바다와도 매우 가까워 위치가 매우 좋았습니다. 에어컨도 아주 잘 작동해 쾌적하게 잘 지낼 수 있었습니다

This place is outstanding for a unique setting with lots of privacy in nature. As would be expected for such a remote setting, accessibility can be challenging. You need to follow numerous turns on unmarked small, paths. Using their provided guide from the ferry or airstrip is advisable. It is truly off road for a few kms, tight for a car and slippery and messy in rainy season for a motorcycle. If you can work with the accessibility challenge, we highly recommend the place.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft in bester Lage direkt am Strand. Ausstattung und Sauberkeit sind sehr gut. Die Terrasse, die bei Flut nur einen Sprung vom Indischen Ozean entfernt ist, ist einzigartig. Wir haben in Jambiani keine andere Unterkunft gesehen, die solch einen privaten Zugang zum Meer bietet. Bei Ebbe kann man sich immer noch in den vorhandenen Whirlpool legen😎 Es gab in den zehn Tagen, die wir vor Ort waren zweimal Stromausfall, dies wurde aber umgehend durch ein Stromaggregat aufgefangen. Hakuna matata! Was unseren Aufenthalt zu etwas Besonderem gemacht hat war Barau, der Manager vor Ort. Er wohnt in der Nachbarschaft, ist immer erreichbar und ein sehr hilfsbereiter, freundlicher und zuvorkommender Mensch. Er kümmert sich sehr gut um seine Gäste und hilft zuverlässig dabei alle Arten von Touren, ob zu Land oder zu Wasser zu organisieren. Außerdem bieten Barau und seine Frau Zuhura sehr gutes authentisches Essen zu absolut erschwinglichen Preisen an. Also unbedingt ausprobieren!

We stayed for a few days. Excellent place directly on the beach. Really enjoyed our stay. Hope to be back soon.

Thank you so much for hosting us at your villa, Calister! It was truly a wonderful getaway. We loved the beautiful beach view, the comfortable amenities, and especially the excellent communication throughout our stay. Calister went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly — from helping us find the right ingredients for our meals to organizing transport for our outings. She was always available and on top of everything. Amazing service! We had a great experience and truly appreciated the care and attention. Thanks again!

Peku Peku is Paradise! You litterally live in the jungle, between beatiful trees and very Artistic gardens that Andrew made himself. The bar/restaurant/chilling area is the perfect antidote for our stressful life and attitude. Next year I will stay there at least one month. People are so kind there, and there are incredibly beautiful and secret spot that Andrew can suggest you. His nephew Iunus is a great chef who can teach you a lot of local plates, but most of all Iunus is a special, gentle and delicate person. Very rare to find people like them! A You will be child again feeding the bush babies directly from your hand!!

Unsere Unterkunft war einfach fantastisch! Alles war blitzsauber, bestens ausgestattet und genau so, wie wir es uns gewünscht haben. Die Lage war perfekt – etwas abseits der riesigen Touristenhotels, sodass wir unsere Ruhe hatten. Das Frühstück war super lecker, allerdings wurde auf Allergene leider keine Rücksicht genommen. Ein besonderes Dankeschön an Marco, Antonio und Mara – alle drei waren unglaublich herzlich, und Mara hat uns sogar frische Kokosnüsse vorbeigebracht. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und kommen gerne wieder!

This home right on the shores of Jambiani Beach is a dream come true. We loved every minute of our stay. Kerstin was an excellent host and communicated exceptionally well. Sulei (the local caretaker) was very helpful and provided daily advice for activities, food, taxis, etc. Overall, this home is in an incredible location and was the perfect place to have a restful vacation.
