Villa Home

EvelyneRating, 5 stars2 months ago
2 weeks in this house was really peaceful and nice. The general manager Mudy and also Anna were very proactive. The house is situated in a very quiet environment and we could walk 15 minutes to Kendwa beach. Otherwise we took moto taxis. I really recommand this place

Family Beach House - right on the beach

YvonneRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Ernst is a very good gatsgeber . He responds immediately and always helps. Everything is very well organized. He has arranged the help on site very well. There is always a contact person there. Maybe think about an emergency power unit......The house is located directly on the beach , just a few steps to the sea. Absolutely quiet location. Thank you very much for the nice time there.

Mambo Babu Villa

TjamRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our stay at the villa was perfect, we enjoyed all the peace and quiet that the villa offers. Everything you need is within walking distance (beach, restaurants, bar, etc.), where you are greeted warmly by the locals every time, as if you have been living there for years. This is a little gem, hidden in a local area. Highly recommended.

Villa Retreat

SusanneRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Fantastic location on the ocean, with fabulous views from all terraces and especially from the upper outside deck. Great open plan living space with views and spacious bedrooms with en suite bathrooms . The staff were incredibly welcoming, kind and discreet, always there to greet and assist. The property and gardens are really well designed and have a great flow. Superb walks to the reefs at low tide. The remote location provides great privacy and relaxation, highly recommended. We will be back!

Beachfront Bliss in Zanzibar

SulimahRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The villa has a modern design and the rooms are equipped with all the modern tools and appliances. You will not feel that you are missing anything. Doreen is a professional and always ready to help. The view and the view are stunning, the atmosphere is calm, and every corner of the villa has a piece of art worth contemplating. It was a wonderful and unforgettable experience.

Villa Saffron - Heritage Retreat

YoussefRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I spent my honeymoon here. For this occasion, the accommodation was really fantastic. You have absolute peace and quiet and can fully enjoy the time together. The staff were super nice and accommodating. Omar in particular was directly involved in implementing every wish. The only point is that reaching restaurants and beaches could only be done by taxi, which was costly in the long run. But we preferred that to staying in an overcrowded tourist area. Therefore, full recommendation for this accommodation

Luxury Oceanfront Villa Zanzibar

ZainabRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at this beautiful villa in Zanzibar. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful setting, stunning ocean views, and the warm hospitality of the host. The private pool was a dream, and we loved waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying the complimentary breakfast on the spacious terrace each morning. The staff was friendly and attentive without being intrusive, and the meals prepared with local ingredients Highly recommended—we can't wait to return!

Cozy private villa in Fukuchani

MelissaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Fukuchani Inn is wonderful - the staff is pleasant, kind, and very willing to help with whatever you might need. Everyone was friendly and we had a wonderful stay. The Inn is right near the ocean, a quick little walk to a beautiful (albeit rocky) beach, and it's very close (about 15 mins) from Nungwi beach. And the pool is lovely! We stayed in the 2-bedroom Villa and it was perfect for my family, plenty of space and very clean. And of course I have to mention Daisy, the basset hound!! Such a friendly and good girl :) We would love to come back one day - overall, great stay :) Friendly reminder to travelers, Tanzania and Zanzibar often have power outages, and this includes A/C - but they only lasted a few mins each time, and the staff aims to provide as comfortable a stay as possible.

Afra luxury Villa in Zanzibar

ArthurRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Yolanda is an amazing hostess. My travel companions and I were in a bind because we had issues with our other lodging reservations. Yolanda was able to accommodate our group last minute in her home and made sure we were all comfortable. Her home is beautifully decorated, equipped with everything you could need, the pool and backyard is beautiful, the water is hot and the ac works great. She is also located right in between Blue Safari and Stone Town which was very convenient for the activities we were looking to do without long transits. There are also restaurants and a grocery store within 5 min walking distance. Lastly her cleaning and managing team is very responsive and helpful as well. In short, Yolanda's home is one of the best airbnb's I've ever stayed in and she's one of the best hostess' I've ever had the pleasure of meeting with. I would recommend her and her place to anyone who is considering booking with her.

The Baobab Villa

RaulRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Our stay at this beautiful villa exceeded all expectations! The pristine, large pool and stunning property were truly impressive, but what really made our experience unforgettable was Barbara, the amazing host. She went above and beyond, even arranging our airport pick-up and drop-off, making everything so easy. Her warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. Highly recommend staying here – it’s a perfect getaway!

The waterfront Staycation

StephanieRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Me and my friends had such an amazing experience as our first time in zanzibar and staying at the waterfront staycation. The host Mundhir was the best!! He was so helpful and responsive and gave us everything we needed. His staff was amazing as well, the cook and our breakfast meals were always something to look forward to! From groceries and ordering food to even providing shisha and a trusted driver James! The accomodation was very comfortable and spacious and the pool was great. The only to keep in mind is that the area is secluded from the city but great for a relaxing staycation. Thank you so much to Mundhir and the team, wonderful experience and 10/10 would highly recommend!

Villa in Kiwengwa with pool

NkirukaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We felt right at home! We found the place to be actually exceeding the expectations from the pictures and the description. Generous space both internal and external, and easy to make yourself right at home. The team of the property was extremely proactive, and we were pleasantly surprised to also have a cleaner that comes by every day. Overall really exceeded what we anticipated. The location as well is easy to get to and just walking distance from the beach, restaurants and a fun little yoga bar/spot. Would def. recommend staying here!

Zanzibar Timber House

EvanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The stay with Kurtis was incredible. The place was absolutely beautiful (a real paradise). We truly felt at home. Kurtis was extremely responsive to everything we needed. We stayed for a month and worked remotely from the home with no problems at all. A great getaway for the digital nomad or someone wanting to disconnect from it all. 6 stars if I could give that. Thank you Kurtis!

Wakushi House with sea view, authentic, quiet

Florian & AnneRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We loved loved loved our stay at Wakushi house. Rebecca and Amani were so helpful and sweet people to be around and their place is just amazing. It is simply beautiful and very airy which is important on such a hot island. But it was the little details that stood out- fresh flowers, self-colored towels and handmade soap (which you can also purchase as a souvenir). Rebecca was also super helpful to arrange some trips and even took me to her yoga class. This might have been my best Airbnb-find ever!

Hammock Under Milky Way 5 Min to Beach & The Rock

SebRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This place is AMAZING! The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a long or short stay. It was actually the only place I found with good wifi in Zanzibar as I work remotely. It is literally 5 min to the beach! The host was also super responsive, gave me a lot of tips and even helped me find a great piece of art. I was also welcomed with a mix of fruits which was a great touch. Stop your search and book this place now!

KITAMBONE HOUSE. A window to the ocean

DianaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Micaela’s house is beautiful facing a stunning beach. Chinga welcomed us and let us in earlier than expected, which was a huge relief. He was incredibly responsive and helpful - always popped round when we needed him. Asante Chinga! Halima cooked us a lovely breakfast. We also had a great massage. We enjoyed the Yoga Bar, Imani Beach Hotel breakfast and a couple of good dinners at Zan View. The house is stylish, the sand garden delightful and through the tiny gate you are already on the beautiful beach. Definitely recommend!

A private 3-bedroom Villa

SophieRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I've been staying here with some friends and we enjoyed every second there. The outdoor area was super comfy to chill and talk. When we arrived, Moudy waited for us and asked if we would like a small tour in the neighborhood. We accepted so he showed us a fast way to get to the beach, some restaurants and shops. He also organized our transports. Thank you Moudy - we will be back when the pool is here ;)

Malkia House: comfortable/spacious/close to the beach

GiselaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We were a little skeptical due to the most recent rather bad review. We booked anyway, as we were able to check in at very short notice and the price was just great. How lucky: it was definitely the most spacious and comfortable place we had on our tour of Zanzibar👍👍👍 Especially the large living/dining room was pleasantly cool despite the heat and we spent a cozy game evening there in heavy rain. This room is the only room of the house which is only equipped with metal mosquito repellent and without window panes. So there is always a pleasant breeze through the many windows. Thank you for the lovely stay!

Cozy House in Nungwi Zanzibar

TharunRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Zoe was an amazing host and really helpful with providing recommendations on where to eat and what to see on the island. Zoe was also very quick with her responses which made our stay at Zanzibar stress free. The property was spacious, with the showers having good water pressure and the beds being covered in mosquito nets. We had rented a car and we were able to park the car safely inside the gate. Overall we would definitely recommend Zoe as a host and her property as a great place to stay!

Villa Private pool 2BD 1 min Beach

MelissaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Mireille’s. She kindly arranged for transport from the airport (highly recommended as otherwise we probably would not have been able to find it ourselves). The place has everything we needed for our getaway. The plunge pool was wonderful. The location was great—the beach was a short walk away and we were spoilt for choice with restaurants. We would def stay here again!
