Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Unguja North Region

Fukuchani Inn is wonderful - the staff is pleasant, kind, and very willing to help with whatever you might need. Everyone was friendly and we had a wonderful stay. The Inn is right near the ocean, a quick little walk to a beautiful (albeit rocky) beach, and it's very close (about 15 mins) from Nungwi beach. And the pool is lovely! We stayed in the 2-bedroom Villa and it was perfect for my family, plenty of space and very clean. And of course I have to mention Daisy, the basset hound!! Such a friendly and good girl :) We would love to come back one day - overall, great stay :) Friendly reminder to travelers, Tanzania and Zanzibar often have power outages, and this includes A/C - but they only lasted a few mins each time, and the staff aims to provide as comfortable a stay as possible.

We enjoyed ourselves so much in this villa! 4 nice bedrooms with all the attached bathrooms. two kitchens but we only used the mail. Great fun and freezer which was appreciated! Amazing pool and everything taken care of. Patrik and his crew took great care of us, were always around but not that it was intrusive. The dirt road there was a disaster but could still drive with a stroller on it. The beach reached after a walk of 15 minutes. There is not much around but after a couple of days we found a shop and things that were needed. Patrik helped us with everything we needed. We stayed here completely privately and felt safe. Since we were traveling with toddlers, I was missing a cot and high chair that is easy to get so it's something that might be fixed. Good AC in the rooms and very nice and cared for garden.

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!

We were a little skeptical due to the most recent rather bad review. We booked anyway, as we were able to check in at very short notice and the price was just great. How lucky: it was definitely the most spacious and comfortable place we had on our tour of Zanzibar👍👍👍 Especially the large living/dining room was pleasantly cool despite the heat and we spent a cozy game evening there in heavy rain. This room is the only room of the house which is only equipped with metal mosquito repellent and without window panes. So there is always a pleasant breeze through the many windows. Thank you for the lovely stay!

The villa more or less meets the description, needs some renovation. Close to the beach and kids loved the pool. The surrounding is not so nice because of construction all around. Very nice communication from Eliasa, thank you very much!

Zoe was an amazing host and really helpful with providing recommendations on where to eat and what to see on the island. Zoe was also very quick with her responses which made our stay at Zanzibar stress free. The property was spacious, with the showers having good water pressure and the beds being covered in mosquito nets. We had rented a car and we were able to park the car safely inside the gate. Overall we would definitely recommend Zoe as a host and her property as a great place to stay!

We felt right at home! We found the place to be actually exceeding the expectations from the pictures and the description. Generous space both internal and external, and easy to make yourself right at home. The team of the property was extremely proactive, and we were pleasantly surprised to also have a cleaner that comes by every day. Overall really exceeded what we anticipated. The location as well is easy to get to and just walking distance from the beach, restaurants and a fun little yoga bar/spot. Would def. recommend staying here!

Lovely villa, very private and super views of the water. The place is literally on the beach. Full access to the huge resort pool next door but we loved the private pool more. Great chill out for a few days in Zanzibar.

super guter service

Stunning place just as in the pictures close to the sea and the market The hosts are really nice and helped with everything we needed There was always hot water and it was really clean that we arrived Highly recommended

we really enjoyed the stay it was soo awwsome the services were awwsome the house was extremely clean we loved our stay ur such a great host thank you very much.ibrah was such an awwsome guard

Great host. My only complaint is that they should have a solution for the flies so that you can enjoy outside without swatting them off the whole time. Lastly, it’s far from everywhere and everything and getting around became costly so take into consideration rebooking but the place is beautiful and peaceful.

it was sooooo awesome 🤩 thanks for everything, lisa and yakup!! i hope we see each other next year, asante sana

The best place i would recommend.. Its the peaceful heaven i would have say... Mr.Boris... my man... he is always there for you... Olga is super friendly couldn't see her directly... but she helped me a lot though immediate response over the chat. The place is the best for the price and consist of 2 pools.

We stayed for a month. The place is nice and clean, situated in the village. The local guy, Saidi, who is always at the property is very helpful and kind.

It is a very nice and spacious apartment

Communication with host Yussuf was seamless and timely. His responses were clear and concise. He gave us a good discount for our family of 4. The co host pendo was super kind. She checked us in and also took us to the pier restaurant for that much needed dinner by the ocean. She also recommended places to shop at in case we needed to. The caretaker was also polite, present and alert. The place is very clean, quiet and most of all I appreciated the private pool. Thank you Yussuf and Pendo

It was so lovely to stay here at Lapili residence. Cannot recommend them enough, the hospitality of the staff/guards were so amazing. They’re such kind people and helped us out whenever we needed, even the littlest things. Also major football fans! Great location to the beach as well with a private beach beds for you to use. If you’re looking for a nice place to stay in Zanzibar, this is it :)

We highly recommand Amani Home. The place is amazing, beautiful view of the beach from the balcony. Thanks.

Patrick was the best host we had in Sansibar. A friend of mine and I are travelling the island and Patrick was very kind and helpful, he booked us a Safari. Thanks for that 🙏🏻 Its nice to talk with him and he also cooked rice and beans for us which was very tasty!! Definitely recommend to stay in this apartment. If youre staying in Kiwengwa, go and book this apartment! 👍🇹🇿🐘 Also he gave us his number, in case we need any help or other stuff. Thank You and best regards Kathi and Mailin

The premises is beautiful and the apartment is spacious and clean. Maya was very helpful and there was always someone around if you needed assistance. The food was yummy, too. We enjoyed our stay very much.

The staff was the best part of the stay. They were amazing, especially Dan. The property is next to the beach and in the middle of a village. Seeing the African culture and way of living mixed with paradisiac views…was riveting. Several descent restaurants in the area as well. Will definitely book again.

Really lovely apartment with wonderful outside space and air conditioned en suite bedrooms. I loved being able to nip to the beach for my early morning swim and then come back to relax in the pool which, although it's small, was great for cooling off. We managed to have all 4 of us (2 adults plus 2 full sized teens) in at once. Sonia was really welcoming and very helpful, always responding quickly to queries both before and during our stay. She also gave us handy info about local restaurants who we could message and have deliver to the apartment which was perfect for us. Eating on the terrace every night was great. All in all a lovely week in a beautiful apartment with a great host. Thank you

We stayed 7 weeks at Saids place and liked it very much. From the beginning we had 2 people whom we could anytime ask for help. We felt very safe at Saids place and did not even shut the appartment with a key since there is a big fence around the buildung. The area in which the appartment is located is rather quiet the village ist about 5 minutes walk away and there are not many tourists around. The walking distance to the beach and a very nice resort called Waikiki is about 5 minutes away. Said himself was very helpful and friendly. He invited us for a great homemade dinner (the best we had in Zanzibar) and repaired Christians bicycle. We would be glad to come back stay there and meet Said again.
