Villa Liam Kiwengwa Zanzibar
it's a 10/10 everything was great,we enjoyed staying at Villa liem and we will definitely visit the place again...

We call it home - Kiwengwa Villa
Sure! How about this: “I had a fantastic experience at your property. Everything was just right, and I felt so at home. Thank you for being such a wonderful host!” Does that work for you?

ST Beach Villa
Mohammed and staff were very accommodating during our stay. If you are looking for a location that’s centrally located because you want to explore the island then this is great. It’s also easy access to stone town without being directly in stone town. Villa was as advertised and the daily Swahili breakfast was an unexpected nice surprise. I’d go back.

Villa with private swimming pool next to beach
Amazing on all levels. Warmly recommended and I will stay here next time I’m in Zanzibar 🙏

Welcome to Lala Salama House
We had a wonderful stay at Othman's home. It was the perfect peaceful retreat after our safari. It is very close to the beach and has its own beautiful garden. Othman is a very welcoming host and has many recommendations for both the local area and other parts of Zanzibar.

Private Villa 390m²ZERO MIN to the beach 3*Service
If you like a private place on a beautifull spot this is your place! The beach and house are beautifull and very authentic. The staff is amazing and the chef cooks the best mrals we have tasted on Zanzibar.

Kameleon Villa’s - Bungalow 2
The perfect place to stay if you’re looking for a relaxing, quiet stay with a great pool and all the amenities. David is a great host and has thought of so many little details to take care of his guests. There’s a fridge stocked with drinks and washing machine and grill available for communal use. The airbnb is within walking distance to super markets or a quick ride on a local boda boda!

Malcom Residence 2
We had some difficulty finding the place at first, but the communication with Malcom was always good, so he sent someone very quickly to receive us. Malcom was always easy to reach and wishes or questions were quickly processed on his part. We also booked a safari and a rental car through him, which all went smoothly and I can really recommend. In addition to the accommodation, we were well looked after by Malcom and his staff throughout our stay, so we didn't lack anything. You get the feeling that nothing is impossible and he does everything to make sure you have a nice stay. The adjoining restaurant "The Cliff grill" also provided us with the most delicious food right up to the terrace, which was really great. I can really recommend Malcom as a host! We'd love to come back anytime!

kuwa Zanzibar apartment 1 floor
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

Stylish Oceanview Penthouse with private pool
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.

Magic Beach Villa
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.

Double Economy Room
I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb apartment in Zanzibar. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described in the listing. The host was very responsive and helpful, providing great local tips. The location was perfect-close to the beach, restaurants, and shops, yet quiet enough to relax. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Zanzibar!

La Playa Paradsie, Pleasant room with breakfast
Price performance ok. I really liked that the accommodation is occupied almost all the time, i.e. we had a very safe feeling even during our excursions. Breakfast is fine, you always get fruit and something different African every day. On request, there are also other things. Family atmosphere.

Utupoa Lodge, Kijiji bedroom
Utupoa made me feel so at home, that I didn't want to leave at all :) I stayed for a week and felt so welcome. Joyce is an amazing, kind and very cool woman! With soo many interesting storys, I could listen to her for hours. But not only Joyce was great, her staff was lovely as well and helps with everything. The food is very delicious and freshly cooked. Utupoa is so, so beautiful with a fascinating garden and a huge mainhouse, with lots to see. I love, love, loved the view! The beach is great aswell and much quieter than other places, with viewer beachboys. Snorkeling is awesome with plenty of sealife to see. Mnemba Island is not far away and a must do for diving or snorkling - breathtakingly beautiful! I enjoyed the dinners with the other guests and Joyce, we had lots of fun. I met super cool people :). Utupoa is a home away from home with so much character, heart and sunshine. I would go back any time and hope I can one day. Asante sana Joyce!

Villa Pepo
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!

Peace Point
The house is very new and clean, the room is equipped with a private bathroom, it will be more convenient to give the room a few trash cans.

Margarita2 Nungwi, Zanzibar
Good location , 5 minutes to the beach, Rodja very friendly nice man, i recommend go to boom boom boat party with him👍 I like this place 👍

Just Heaven Princess Sea View Apartment
Just Heaven truly lived up to its name! The laundry service was a thoughtful touch, making our stay so much easier, though we did lose two bras—maybe blown away by the wind! Overall, a wonderful stay and we’d come back for sure!

Kofia Villa Matemwe Zanzibar
We have stayed in dozens of airbnbs, and this is by far the most amazing experience we have ever had. This sea-side villa is a paradise. The views are breathtaking, and you can walk 1 minute down the stairs to what is essentially your own private beach (best time to swim was between 2-4 with the tides). The villa was imaculately clean, with sweet Jennifer around (but not in your space), cleaning, setting up meals, and making sure we had everything. The private chef is the cherry on top - eat EVERY meal here. Best food we had on the trip. The beds are comfy, the WIFI is fast (I worked remote the whole time). The pool is clean and refreshing. We flagged down boats each day to take us snorkeling for $30 round trip and left from the airbnb ocean steps. No reason to ever leave, to be honest. A perfect getaway. It's so quiet and dark at night as well! Be advised that (at least in May) there were a LOT of mosquitos at night so bring spray for when you're on the porch. This place is perfect!

Ground floor Studio at The Adventure + Breakfast
Sissy and her team are great hosts. The food was fresh and amazing. They made great efforts to help get access to shops and things to do. The help with taxi drivers was great.

Bed and Breakfast
U were very friendly and warm Thanks for your hospitality

zansi beach house

B Home zanzibar - Fast Wi-Fi

Beach House Kigomani:Seafront Luxury:20%Off Promo
The place gave us exactly what we came for in Zanzibar, the beach front , only issue i had was how to get to the place , google map took us to different Zanzibar beach house and I didn’t have a sim card or data to communicate wt the owner , I think it’s better to use matemwe or just heaven apartment coz the locals know this places , the lady Esta was always there to help with whatever we needed and the owner always asking if we needed anything, so me and my friends felt at home . Thanks for the memories.
