This accommodation was just fabulous. Such a perfect location , our room (Nutmeg) was right on the beach.It was so lovely falling asleep listening to the waves lapping ,and waking up to the beautiful sunrise . And The view from our balcony was just fantastic . There is a restaurant on site ,and bars and restaurants along the beach . Breakfast was delicious, so much choice , ( I particularly enjoyed the local porridge) and the staff were so attentive. You were really made to feel part of the family by everyone . The owners Beth and Dullah were great , so hospitable , always going above and beyond. They have recently taken over The Mango Tree House and made lots of improvements, and their future plans sound so exciting . We had stayed at a few other lovely accommodations around Zanzibar but this was my favourite by far, and I can’t wait to return. Thank you all for such a wonderful stay .

We enjoyed every moment in Zanzistar ☀️ all employees were so nice, helpful and supportive. We loved the area, people, food ... Simply everything. Peter helped us with tours, mainly organized by Kacho and his team. Kacho is great guide, highly recommended. If you wish to spend your vacation with locals and not many tourists, Jambiani is great place to go and enjoy the atmosphere of real Zanzibar ❤️ we THANK everyone in Zanzistar who made our holiday unforgotable!
