    Upon arrival, we were immediately stunned by how beautiful the house and the garden were. The rooms are splendid and so comfortable ! The beach is only a minute away, crystal clear and never crowded, probably the most underrated in Zanzibar. ...

    Zamzamhouse is een parel op in het authentieke dorpje Jambiani, op afstand van maar een paar stappen naar de zee! Ik verbleef in een van de sfeervolle, ruime kamers en heb genoten van het heerlijke verblijf! Elke ochtend staat er een vers ontbijt...

    Das geräumige Zimmer. Das Frühstück war toll, Tungo ist auf Sonderwünsche eingegangen. Es gab viel Platz auch auf der oberen Etage des Hauses (Yogamatten, Hängetuch)

Property information

Welcome to ZamZam House, where we invite you to experience a sense of belonging in a beautifully designed space that feels like home. From the moment you step inside, you'll be embraced by our airy, light-filled interiors that celebrate Omani architectural traditions crafted with precision by local artisans. Each handmade bed and thoughtfully decorated room features natural-dyed fabrics and eco-printed accents, while the floors, made of exquisite neru—a blend of sand and limestone—create a harmonious atmosphere that invites relaxation. Nestled in a village adorned with authentic Swahili houses, you’ll truly feel a connection to this vibrant culture. ZamZam House offers two spacious guest rooms and two generously sized studios, each designed for comfort and privacy. All accommodations include a king-size bed and a private bathroom. The room on the lower level boasts a serene private patio, ideal for one or two adults. The upstairs room is graced with three expansive bay windows and comfortably fits three adults. Our ground-floor apartment features a separate bedroom and lounge area, perfect for four adults, while the upper apartment invites you to enjoy a balcony, bay window, and lounge setup for four adults. Each room is equipped with a mosquito net and ceiling fan for your comfort, and high-speed Wi-Fi is readily available to keep you connected. Imagine stepping out for a leisurely stroll to the pristine white sandy beach, just a stone’s throw away. Picture yourself savoring morning coffee on one of our two stunning rooftops, where to the east, the sun rises majestically over the ocean, and to the west, it melts into the horizon framed by graceful palm trees. Our larger rooftop serves as a tranquil space for rejuvenating yoga classes, on the smaller rooftop, where you can unwind in a hammock or cozy up in our inviting 'babu chair', we serve our delicious breakfast.

Neighbourhood information

The turquoise waters of the stunning Indian Ocean resemble an infinite pool, beckoning you to dive in. In Jambiani, the tides create a captivating display every six hours, unveiling shallow waters at low tide that are perfect for exploration. Watch in awe as Zanzibari women skillfully tend to seaweed farms, fishermen return with their catches on traditional dhow boats, and children play joyfully along the shore. When the tide ebbs, take a leisurely stroll to a nearby sandbank, where the vibrant waters deepen behind it, offering a perfect oasis for a refreshing swim.
