Baobab V2 Villa apartment(140m2)

PhebeRating, 5 stars7 months ago
After 2 weeks of volunteering, this accommodation was great to come down and relax. The location was really great and Barbara was always on hand to help with recommendations, a bajaji etc. needed. It was a great end to our time in Zanzibar. Highly recommended!

Villa Heidi at beach with pool - Zanzibar

MandyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

Ocean View Apartment in Fumba Town

RasRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Hashim’s place in Fumba Town is a true sanctuary. Clean, peaceful, and thoughtfully designed — perfect for rest, reflection, or remote work. The space is modern, airy, and filled with natural light, with a balcony that feels like a private retreat. Fumba itself is calm, secure, and beautifully laid out — ideal if you want a break from the tourist buzz. What really sets this stay apart is Hashim himself: kind, respectful, and incredibly helpful without ever being intrusive. He genuinely wants you to feel at home, and it shows. Whether you’re creating, healing, or just needing a safe, quiet space — this is it. I left feeling more grounded and clear than when I arrived. Highly recommend and would definitely return.

Paradies Garden Best spot at the beach! OutsideBed

JasminRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Das Anwesen ist super schön. Durch den grossen Garten hat man seine Privatsphäre und ist trotzdem in der Nähe von Restaurants und Aktivitäten. Am besten war das Aussenbett ❤️ mit einem wahnsinns Blick über Strand und Ozean. Wir haben viel Zeit auch dem Balkon verbracht und einfach genossen. Rama und Tatu haben sich liebevoll um uns gekümmert und bei Fragen sofort reagiert 😊 Für alle die gerne etwas Ruhe haben möchten aber trotzdem mitten drin sein möchten absolut empfehlenswert

KITAMBONE HOUSE. A window to the ocean

DianaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Micaela’s house is beautiful facing a stunning beach. Chinga welcomed us and let us in earlier than expected, which was a huge relief. He was incredibly responsive and helpful - always popped round when we needed him. Asante Chinga! Halima cooked us a lovely breakfast. We also had a great massage. We enjoyed the Yoga Bar, Imani Beach Hotel breakfast and a couple of good dinners at Zan View. The house is stylish, the sand garden delightful and through the tiny gate you are already on the beautiful beach. Definitely recommend!

Villa Kobe - Private pool on the beach

RubyRating, 5 stars10 months ago
We just had an incredible stay at this beachfront villa in Zanzibar. It an incredibly beautiful location, and the house is spacious and clean. The real star of the property, beside the gorgeous beach is the staff. From the management agency, to the house manager Sule, to Tatu our housekeeper and Fabio the most friendly and warm Maasai guard- everyone made my daughter and I feel right at home. We hired a fantastic chef, Robinson through the agency and he made the best food at our request every day and the cost was reasonable. This is a must book for a peaceful vacation in Zanzibar away from the commercial hotel scene. Thank you Paolo for hosting us!

Villa Jasmine - Beach Front Private Pool

EvansRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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!

Raha Love Gorgeous 1B Garden apartment FumbaTown

PaulRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Fumba Town is a very nice place to stay: close to the beach and not far from Stone Town and the airport. The apartment is very neat and with tasteful furniture and good facilities like a washing machine and vacuum cleaner. An umbrella came in handy too :-) because it was the rainy season. Kwetu kwenu beach club is nearby and chill with amazing sunset views. Highly recommended, the apartment and the town.

Magic Beach Villa

JohanRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Our 2 families (10 persons) had a great time and stay in this house over Christmas. This house doesn't have any AC but the fans do a pretty good job. Nice deep pool which was of great use as the tide and seaweed has big influence on the beach just outside . Along the shore there are couple of cozy restaurants. Be caution and aware of palm trees with coconuts that can fall down from the neighbor plots. Housekeeper Hidaya was great and so friendly, she helped with cleaning and cooking.

Tamani Villas (5-bedroom villa)

MeredithRating, 5 stars11 months ago
Overall, this place was fantastic. It’s a traditional Zanzibar design so it’s not a modern place, but exactly what we wanted. We were thrilled to be there with our large group of two families, including 5 children. Rasheed was excellent and accommodated all of our requests. Food, especially breakfast, was delicious. The beach outside the villa is pristine, with white sand beaches and a beautiful Indian Ocean right outside the doorstep. The private pool was incredible. The villa rental subsidizes the Tamani Foundation and its students, so staying here contributes to the education of local kids. Win win.

AMANI VILLA

EmmanuelRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a great stay in Amani Villa with our two boys. We slept in a huge nicely designed bedroom with a high makuti roof in the middle of the fisherman village of Jambiani. The gorgeous turquoise ocean is just a few minutes walk away and the plunge pool is great for cooling off. There are local shops and restaurants very near by and the main road is not far away for longer trips. Sacha was always available, polite and responsive. Highly recommended!

Villa Retreat

SusanneRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Fantastic location on the ocean, with fabulous views from all terraces and especially from the upper outside deck. Great open plan living space with views and spacious bedrooms with en suite bathrooms . The staff were incredibly welcoming, kind and discreet, always there to greet and assist. The property and gardens are really well designed and have a great flow. Superb walks to the reefs at low tide. The remote location provides great privacy and relaxation, highly recommended. We will be back!

We loved our stay at Theresia’s place, very private and peaceful, Theresia was very responsive to messages and very helpful. The property was lovely. Sam and Flola were very helpful and friendly and Ramadam made us a lovely Swahili breakfast every morning. We would absolutely recommend and if we are ever in Bwejuu again we would definitely stay again.

Villa Adreá

PatrickRating, 5 stars1 week ago
breath taking. I cancelled plans and spent a whole day doing nothing but enjoying that back yard, the landscape, pool and views. Ocean sounds are peaceful while the birds sing. the breeze is heavily. 5 star service from the host. surprisingly close to Stone town which was great but secluded location that is unique and private. great villa to stay in Zanzibar.

Private Villa 390m²ZERO MIN to the beach 3*Service

МаксимRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Мы с женой провели в этом прекрасном доме 8 дней. Огромный дом в огромном частном саду выходящим прямо на пляж. То есть до моря 20 метров. Хороший вид на море с веранды. Дом и сад обслуживают три человека, все очень приветливы и всегда рады помочь. Надо иметь в виду, что в доме нет кондиционера. Проветривание идет за счет открытых окон и с вечера дует хороший бриз с моря. Но под утро может быть немного душно.
