    big swimming pool
    lekker brekkie
    friendly staff
    seaweed beach

    Jambiani vibes 🏝️

    The big swimming pool was a total lifesaver for us! Brekkie was lekker, and we even got to connect with their office WiFi while chilling at the Jetty Bar with amazing views. The staff were super friendly, always ready to help us out with anything we needed, from arranging excursions to making us feel at home!

    Just a heads up, the beach sometimes had a bit of seaweed lying around, a bit of a bummer for swimming.

    It's an amazing trendy boutique hotel with very helpful staff members. The location is secluded. The place to have lunch just a short stroll away from the venue is The Buffet at Bellagio. The big restaurant for lunch or dinner is a nice plus.

    beach front location
    friendly staff
    wifi issues

    beautiful resort but some improvements needed

    The beach front location was fine, with easy access to the water. I particularly enjoyed the spacious and clean Superior Garden View room with a lovely retreat after long beach days. The staff were genuinely friendly, adding to the overall pleasant experience.

    The WiFi connectivity was inconsistent at times, which could be improved .

    beautiful view
    weak wifi
    mosquito net

    I stayed in a Beautiful Beach Front Room for 2 nights, and it was spacious with well-working AC and a mosquito net. Loved the view and the vibe right by the beach! The only downside was the WiFi, pretty weak in the room. Otherwise, it was a comfy retreat after a long day under the sun.

    The spacious and immaculate room provided a comfortable retreat after a day on the beautiful beaches. I especially cherished the lively evening activities, like movie nights and themed dinners, which could also be enjoyed at the lovely jetty bar for sunset drinks.

    WiFi connectivity was patchy.

    The kids loved the big swimming pool, perfect for low tides. The evening events, like movie nights, were a hit with our family!

    In my wife's opinion, the breakfast options need improvement.

    The beautiful setting and spacious rooms, especially the jetty bar with its nice sunset views and delicious cocktails. The WiFi could use improvement to keep everyone connected as we unwind. It was a tranquil escape in Zanzibar's vibrant culture.
