Hotellet har små hus langs stranden. I huset der vi bodde var det to store senger, stor bad med dusj og toalett. Vi var heldige med aircondition, men det er ingen kjøleskap. Vann og brus kjøpt i supermarked har vi pakket i vår bag og spurte om å ha det liggende i storhet kjøleskap i baren. Det var ingen problem:) Frokosten inneholdt en tallerken med frukt og deretter fikk vi servert en tallerk med pannekaker, ei brødskive og så får man velge mellom ulike type egg / omelett. Kaffe, te og fantastisk fersk marakuja jus. Vi hadde flere middager på hotellet og det kan vi anbefale. Kokken var god. Det var rent på rommet. Liten basseng, men var mer enn nok for gjestene. Beliggenheten var midt i blinken , da det var en veldig rolig sted. På stranden var det en del steng, men å bevege seg mot Paji er det helt kritthvite strender og havet er bare fantastisk. Veldig rolige omgivelser uten masse turister på akkurat dette området. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake:) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a57afd72-35fc-4b4f-986c-f618b6f6980d-1763665035186.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/61fdf28e-9a23-4d83-8308-ac5913f35cb0-1763665035762.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d70f294d-49af-4a76-805d-b45ebb896c36-1763665028316.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/effa5a9a-b1a1-4c97-bd1a-7e4bc54afbb1-1763665028118.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lena Stayed 10 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martina 9 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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! ##### Martina Stayed 13 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Goede locatie aan het strand, zwembad met ligbedden en handdoeken, ruime schone kamer (we hadden een kamer aan het zwembad met zeer ruim balkon en meubels), prima ontbijt, goede maaltijden, vriendelijk personeel. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2020 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Dissappointed 23 Dec 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Dissappointed Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 11 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary, Nanaimo BC 23 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Mary Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mr D A 18 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 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. ##### Mr D A Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### leszek 5 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Bardzo nam się podobało.

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. ##### Adam ### 10/10 Excellent #### Graham 2 Dec 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort great place to relax and view the ocean activities available vi the hotel if you want them beach very rocky outside hotel but good sandy beach not far away ##### Graham ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 14 Mar 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Idyllic location.

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. ##### magda ### 6/10 Okay #### gemma, London 4 Jan 2016 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Great location and staff Rooms a bit old and mouldy but staff really friendly and helpful.

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. ##### Eva ### 8/10 Good #### Per, Helsingborg 4 Nov 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Nice! Maybe not the greatest surroundings, but quiet and great for relaxing. The best thing about this place is the staff. Friendly, helpful, personal. ##### Per ### 8/10 Good #### Maria, Bayern 27 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort wir waren eine Gruppe aus neun Jugendlichen. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen, direkte Lage am Strand und auch abends häufiger die Möglichkeit weg zu gehen und etwas zu unternehmen. Der Strand könnte etwas schöner sein, aber das liegt ja nicht in der Hand des Hotels. ##### Maria ### 8/10 Good #### Ingela, Stockholm 22 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Vi bodde 10 nätter på resorten.

Meal service some times erratic and slow, but food OK, although not "gourmet". Beach not very good, but OK at high tide. Nice walks on beach. Staff will organise almost anything. ##### Tore ### 8/10 Good #### Inna, Norway 6 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Inna ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 26 Sept 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 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. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Ainara, Bilbao 23 Sept 2014 #### 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... ##### Ainara ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pearl Beach Resort by Sansi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pearl-Beach-Resort-Zanzibar.h39193618.Hotel-Information) > > [Filao Beach Resort by Sansi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chwaka-Hotels-Filao-Beach-Zanzibar.h26830985.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Melia-Zanzibar.h1407257.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Zuri Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Zuri-Zanzibar.h20217090.Hotel-Information) > > [Breezes Beach Club & Spa – Half Board](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Breezes-Beach-Club-Spa-Half-Board.h3522641.Hotel-Information) > > [Fruit & Spice Wellness Resort Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-Fruit-Spice-Wellness-Resort-Zanzibar.h9851631.Hotel-Information) > > [Zawadi Hotel Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Zawadi-Hotel-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h14801376.Hotel-Information) > > [Kena Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Kena-Beach-Hotel.h4544228.Hotel-Information) > > [Aluna Paje](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paje-Hotels-Aluna-Paje.h61490430.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-The-Residence-Zanzibar.h4261204.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h5361523.Hotel-Information) > > [Neptune Pwani Beach Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Neptune-Pwani-Beach-Resort-Spa.h4544303.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-TUI-Blue-Bahari-Zanzibar.h4532516.Hotel-Information) > > [Turaco Nungwi Resort, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Zanzibar-Nungwi.h3300267.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Emerald-Zanzibar-Resort-Spa.h78245396.Hotel-Information) > > [Zanzibar Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marumbi-Hotels-Zanzibar-Bay-Resort.h27086671.Hotel-Information) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [ Safaya Luxury Villas (Adults Only)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Safaya-Luxury-Villas.h91433919.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Paradise Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Ocean-Paradise-Resort-Spa-Zanzibar.h4235502.Hotel-Information) > > [The Palms Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-The-Palms-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h10041347.Hotel-Information) > > [Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-The-Z-Hotel.h3675918.Hotel-Information) > > [Amani Boutique Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paje-Hotels-Amani-Boutique-Hotel.h45431049.Hotel-Information) > > [Baraza Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Baraza-Resort-Spa-Zanzibar.h10042688.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Mersenne Zanzibar, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Le-Mersenne-Beach.h65725614.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Royal-Zanzibar-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h5563953.Hotel-Information) > > [Uroa Bay Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uroa-Hotels-Uroa-Bay-Beach-Resort.h5448275.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [TOA Hotel & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pongwe-Hotels-Toa-Hotel-Spa.h75012943.Hotel-Information)
