Le personnel était accueillant, serviable et toujours souriant. Les propriétaires se sont montrés aux petits soins, créant une atmosphère chaleureuse. L'emplacement, niché au cœur de la forêt, offre un véritable cocon de tranquillité, tout en étant à seulement 5 minutes de la plage. Le restaurant propose une cuisine entièrement faite maison, délicieuse, avec des smoothies particulièrement savoureux. Une adresse à recommander sans hésitation. ##### Michael Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Amani Boutique Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paje-Hotels-Amani-Boutique-Hotel.h45431049.Hotel-Information) > > [Kisiwa on the Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paje-Hotels-Kisiwa-On-The-Beach.h8504745.Hotel-Information) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [Nest Style Beach Hotel Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makunduchi-Hotels-Nest-Style-Zanzibar.h5636850.Hotel-Information) > > [Clove Island Villas & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makunduchi-Hotels-Clove-Island-VillasSpa.h35888521.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [JAZ Adonia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uroa-Hotels-Jaz-Adonia-Beach-Resort.h106801418.Hotel-Information) > > [Aldiana Club Zanzibar Kwanza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-Kwanza-Resort.h92442196.Hotel-Information) > > [Pearl Beach Resort by Sansi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Ras-Michamvi-Beach-Resort.h59224215.Hotel-Information) > > [Zanzibar Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marumbi-Hotels-Zanzibar-Bay-Resort.h27086671.Hotel-Information) > > [Upendo Beach Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Upendo.h38346071.Hotel-Information) > > [Sahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bwejuu-Hotels-Sahari-Zanzibar.h8713114.Hotel-Information) > > [Uroa Bay Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uroa-Hotels-Uroa-Bay-Beach-Resort.h5448275.Hotel-Information) > > [Bella Vista Resort Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-Bella-Vista-Resort-Zanzibar.h39208527.Hotel-Information) > > [PILI PILI UHURU](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-PILI-PILI-UHURU.h76785042.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Emerald-Zanzibar-Resort-Spa.h78245396.Hotel-Information) > > [Pearl Beach Resort by Sansi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pearl-Beach-Resort-Zanzibar.h39193618.Hotel-Information) > > [Coco Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-Coco-Beach-Hotel.h21110718.Hotel-Information) > > [Bamboo Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-Bamboo-Zanzibar.h103409507.Hotel-Information) > > [Be Zanzibar ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-Be-Zanzibar.h101662862.Hotel-Information) > > [JAZ Elite Aurora](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaz-Aurora-Beach.h102401742.Hotel-Information) > > [Breezes Beach Club & Spa – Half Board](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Breezes-Beach-Club-Spa-Half-Board.h3522641.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oasis Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-The-Oasis-Residence.h110883645.Hotel-Information) > > [Seafront private villa at Jambiani Beach, Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-Seafront-Private-Villa-At-Jambiani-Beach.h19869192.Hotel-Information) > > [Maharaja Boutique Hotel Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uroa-Hotels-Maharaja-Boutique-Hotel-Zanzibar.h106507120.Hotel-Information) > > [Oceanfront Villa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bwejuu-Hotels-Oceanfront-Villa-Zanzibar.h18951934.Hotel-Information) > > [Xanadu Luxury Villas & Retreat Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Xanadu-Villas-Retreat.h32493146.Hotel-Information) > > [TIKI Beach Club and Resort ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bwejuu-Hotels-Sherekea-Hotel.h28924394.Hotel-Information) > > [Aya Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-Aya-Beach-Bungalows.h19851873.Hotel-Information) ---
