Malindi Guest house ll
I had a smooth time in Zanzibar. This was my first time ever booking on Airbnb and I indeed loved the stay. Ginie, who was the host around was very friendly and assisted a lot during my stay. It is a walking distance from the Ferry and safe to walk balk home from the main road even after a night out. Loved every detail of it and look forward to staying there again after Ramadhan when I visit Zanzibar.

Deluxe Triple Sea View With Balcony
My stay here was great. It's a walking distance to the Kuza caves. It's on the beach and the pool is heated, so you can swim at night. Loved the sea view from the room. The breakfast is awesome too, with a variety. Overall it's a very good place I'd highly recommend.

Nyota double room with ensuite bathroom
Fleur was a lovely host! She and her team are very welcoming and warm! She gave us tips to discover Zanzibar. We went with a bike to the villages near Jambiani and discovered a secret place! Wow! The rooms are very big, clean and cosy, just like the rest. We enjoyed the pool very much. The restaurant just opened, with delicious food. We tried different foods in Jambiani, but the food at Zanzistar was the best. Very tasty! Thank you for feeling at home! Keep up the good work! Greetings Bart and Julia

Maisha Nungwi - Double Room
Location: It’s at the other end of the “famous” Nungwi walk, having said that it’s also perfectly close to the beach and less crowded. The hotel itself is beautiful well equipped beautiful pool and THE BATHROOM is gorgeous. The breakfast is fantastic and sooo delicious and the staff are friendly and welcoming. Thank you for hosting us.

Aya Beach Secluded Holiday
Had a great stay. The rooms are really clean and cool. Great food in the restaurant and really nice staff. The tour operator Toby organized a fantastic dolphin watching and snorkeling trips!

Fully equipped apartment - Breeze Residence
Newly built complex, central, very close to the beach, equipped and clean. The Brezeer staff is always attentive, kind, helpful and very professional. A plus; their free bike service. Highly recommended for any kind of person. General note 10 out of 10. It's been a pleasure. So far Nico. ;)

Suite with Terrace - Gaia Villas
My wife and I had an absolutely amazing time at Gaia for our honeymoon. We were welcomed by her incredible staff and they even set up beautiful swan towels and roses on the bed for us. The villa was beautiful and very private. And I can’t stress enough how amazing all of the staff were. Breakfast was delicious as well and the host was so responsive to us with recommendations. We stayed at a much larger (and more expensive) resort in Zanzibar before this and we thought Gaia was so much more enjoyable. Very close to the beach as well. Highly recommend!

Kiwengwa Boutique & Spa 109
Very hospitable and easygoing host! Serene and clean environment. I love the natural look of the amenities at the apartment, and he did a great job providing us with the best experience on the island.

Casa Mysa: Private Villa & Pool
A dream of a house! Meg was always available and described everything exactly. The pool is an absolute dream and the house is very good taste. There was nothing missing and the staff helped with everything. I'd love to come back.

2 Bedroom Luxury Villa - Pool, Gym, & Wi-Fi,
I loved my stay at the facility. The place looks like you see in the photos. They have a huge and wonderful pool which was actually warm at night and it's next to the beach. The rooms were spotless and spacious. Highly recommended!

B&B double room w/garden view-Lala Salama cabana
Great place, friendly staff and host. Would come again and you should too

Soluna room with balcony
Mira and Jojo have created a paradise in paradise. It was exactly what I was looking for: away from the tourist centers, close to nature and still good network coverage to be able to work. The delicious breakfast was included and I had dinner cooked. This really allowed me to focus on working. Tip: Get a SIM card from Tigo/Yess in advance. The WIFI was not always stable. However, those who expect a sterile hotel are out of place here. The property is rustic: palm tree roof with geckos, no air conditioning, no fridge. For this, you have a fantastic view of the sea and private access. For me, it was perfect! Mira and Jojo were not on site but always available and helpful. Her employees took care of them lovingly. The food was very delicious.

Peanut & Butter Boutiquehotel luxury room and pool
outstanding, we had the unit with a private pool. totally as described. large bedroom. the food was the star here, unique flavours, generous portions, and vast choice, all cooked to order and fresh, The best meals we had on Zanzibar served on the roof terrace. we had a hire care but can be done by taxi etc. Kendwa is a great resort, ten minute walk from downhill from peanut to the beach front, taxi back about £3. Made was a perfect host and a very talented lady, art studio on site..

Bungalow Papaya @ Karanga Bungalows
need to pay extra tax

Bo-he-mian Shoreline Villa
Very nice place: clean, well located, with nice (although a little lost) service, it also offers a variety of experiences at reasonable prices. Everything is as described. A little hard to communicate with Mo on an ongoing basis, the villa on AirBNB is also under a different name than the resort, so no one in the area knows how to get there, but as we managed, it was great - so far this is the best place in Zanzibar we've been to. We recommend!

Latte apartment in Kahawa house
Hamadi and Deva manage this property with the utmost care and kindness, guaranteeing guests a peaceful stay in a very clean environment...thank you
