"I had assumed incorrectly that Zanzistar was on the beach, so when I arrived, I was really disappointed. I felt claustrophobic in the garden which is surrounded on all sides by high fences. The beach bar which is a 5-minute walk away was underwhelming and there were lots of people smoking. Unless you lay in the front row, in the sun, you couldnt really enjoy the sea view. Unlike the photos, our room was very dark and it was impossible not to bring sand into the room without a deck/patio by the...

"I stayed here for three weeks and felt very well taken care of. The staff were always friendly and attentive and the location is just perfect – only a few meters from the beach. The rooms come with both AC and fans, which made the stay very comfortable. I also appreciated the reliable Wi-Fi, the generator during power cuts, the fast and affordable laundry service, and the fully equipped kitchen, which made it easy to feel at home. There are, however, a few small things to be aware of: there is...

"Because we were only stopping for 2 nights we weren't too particular as to the room so chose the cheapest option but in retrospect we should have picked one next to the pool. We were in an annexe a 20meters away and it was a small room, though it did provide an effective ac unit, tea and coffee facilities, hit shower, clean towels both days, mosquito net, and it was clean and well presented. The main rooms surround the pool and are better proportioned. The owner and the staff are very pleasant...

Bisogna attraversare un villaggio, che a priori potrebbe intimorire gli ospiti ma che poi alla fine risulta invece una piacevole esperienza, dove si vede come vivono i residenti. "

Jabali Bungalows Lodge

Jabali Bungalows Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Jabali was such a lovely place to stay! I especially loved the little porch area in front of my room. It was the perfect spot to just sit, relax, and enjoy the quiet. The pool area was really nice, and the beach is only a 2–3 minute walk away. The staff was wonderful and incredibly helpful. They arranged transportation and guides for both my trip to Stone Town and my ferry trip to Dar es Salaam, where a guide was waiting for me when I arrived on mainland Tanzania. One of the things that really stood out was the care they showed from the very beginning. When I was arriving late, they checked in to see what I wanted for dinner so they could have it ready for me when I got there. That kind of thoughtfulness continued throughout my stay. Everyone was so lovely and made my stay comfortable and easy. I would absolutely recommend Jabali and would happily stay there again!"
