Nice little hotel directly on the beach.
Quaint little hotel located on the beach at the south end of Jambiani. Room was very comfortable and spacious. Breakfast is served each morning with a selection of fruit followed by a choice of eggs and pancakes. The restaurant isn’t really geared up for much else and doesn’t open in the evening, but there are a nice choice of restaurants in both directions along the beach. Only critism would be that staff aren’t particularly well trained on hospitality and customer service aside of what seemed to be ‘the manager’ Jocher who was very helpful, but obviously not always available.

The hotel staff was superior. After having a terrible time finding the place in the evening, tired from a long day we got here and our room was not what we thought we were getting nor was it ready. Weird as they knew we were coming but did Not seem ready for us. After ordering diner we ate, felt better and finally got a proper room. Hard evening. However next day was perfect. From morning breakfast we went for a walk on the beach, swam in the pool! Breakfast was perfect and really good. Good in general is superior. The owner really took special care of us and we even got super late check out! A wonderful ending to our trip. I would come again and stay longer. Felt so at home it was embarrassing. Thought we were taking too much space! Very grateful for my Tanzanian brothers taking such good care of my family and o. Plus points: daughter and wife loved it! Very relaxing! Will come again

So firstly let me tell you , our original hotel cancelled on us last minute and I’m the type of girl who researches everything so I was in a bit of a panic but chose Jambiani white sands bungalows! What an amazing little boutique hotel! I was not disappointed from the moment of arrival we were made to feel very welcome. If your looking for a five star all inclusive then this is not your place. Instead this is a small hotel directly on the beach where you can really experience Zanzibar with the locals with amazing staff and service. Our room was upgraded to a beach view and waking up every morning to the view of the beach and ocean was spectacular. Room was comfortable, with a very comfy bed and shower room and balcony. The room also had a fan and AC which was much needed at night! The staff in particular Aziza and the chef Jacob are absolutely amazing who made sure we had all we needed, cooking us some amazing meals and also some meals that were not on the menu which we asked for! These two really made our holiday amazing and this is one of the reasons I would come back and I wouldn’t usually go to a destination twice! The beach what can I say about the beach it’s absolutely stunning with the tide coming in and out a few times a day and sometimes it’s so shallow you can walk waist deep for miles. There is lots of sellers on the beach and massage ladies and also boat boys who will offer you a sail for a really good price and even snorkel or swim.

Il ,est inadmissible de laisser une empreinte de carte bleue à la réservation pour un paiement sur place et ensuite, obligation de régler en cash car terminal de paiement en soi-disant non fonctionnement. Pas de banque à proximité, une galère pour régler, réglement en euros, hôtel à éviter ou à régler à la réservation et avec option remboursable. Direction pas honnête, très décu.

A due passi dalla spiaggia, i bungalow offrono tutto il necessario per un soggiorno all’insegna del comfort e della tranquillità. La nostra camera si affacciava proprio sulla spiaggia potendo così godere di una vista meravigliosa a tutte le ore del giorno. Personale attento, cordiale e sempre disponibile. Cucina della struttura ottima e a buon prezzo. Colazione ricca e variegata, non mancano mai frutta fresca e succhi appena spremuti (ogni mattina un gusto differente tra l’altro). Tutto perfetto, bravissimi ragazzi! Hakuna Matata 😃

Unsere Reise begann leider mit einer Flugverspätung, sodass wir die Befürchtung hatten, nachts nicht mehr einchecken zu können. Allerdings wurde an der Rezeption auf uns gewartet, worüber wir uns sehr freuten. Die Zimmer sind mit den nötigsten Dingen ausgestattet. Die Möbel könnten ein Update gebrauchen und es fehlte ein zweiter Stuhl und ein Tisch auf dem Balkon. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Lage direkt am Strand, war wirklich sehr schön war. Wer noch besonders hervorzuheben ist, ist Adam - er erfüllte uns unsere Wünsche beim Frühstück und war immer sehr hilfsbereit. Leider wurden meiner Freundin 200 Euro geklaut. Wir wollen niemanden direkt beschuldigen, aber ein Safe im Zimmer könnte sowas verhindern.

Notre séjour a été super. Jambiani est magnifique le personnel de l’hôtel est adorable et à répondu à toutes nos demandes. La chambre est très belle ( nous avions un bungalow vu plage ) le petit déjeuner était copieux et très bon il y a du choix. N’ayant pas loué de voiture sur place l’hôtel nous a trouvé des taxis à chaque fois ( qui sont d’ailleurs très ponctuels ) je recommande vivement !

Perfect place to relax
Once you reach there, no complaint. The beach is amazingly beautiful. Owner Ali is wonderful gentle guy. His recommendation on restaurants was perfect match to our demand. Flexible service for lunch box arrangement for excursion was also helpful as we could have it on the way to the destination. Jambiani is a bit far from any tourist place, but to spend time relaxed, it is a perfect choice. No beer nor wine was available there, which you need to know.
