Seafront private villa at Jambiani Beach, Zanzibar
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (18)

The water was beautiful, and the...

"This villa is gorgeous! Beautiful beach front access, great open design and layout. The host Donna is available to assist with all of your needs with just little notice, she can books tours, excursions, dinner plans, rentals etc. The staff at the villa are very sweet, always accommodating and the food was excellent every day! The pictures don’t do this villa justice. The area of the villa is very safe and quiet during the day and evening. It’s very easy to venture out onto the beach and find...

"The property is literally on the beach, the most incredible location , very quiet and tranquil. Swimming pool, lounger chairs overlooking the beach. You can walk along the beach, there are a few places to have lunch/ drinks within 5-10 mins. The chef is amazing and cooks the most incredible meals for you. Check in very easy and very helpful host. One point to note is the house does not have any windows , so if you are there in rainy season like we were it can get very damp and our clothes and...
