"Just as the pictures show, the setting and the house were beautiful. There was AC in the bedrooms, which was helpful at night. There was a minor issue with hot water at times, but mostly it worked, and the staff helped keep it running. In fact, the staff were quite helpful.

The water was beautiful, and the...

"On site staff was amazing; owner and property manager not so much Owner had stated she was not on site - which we knew, however the basics weren't provided ( we checked in and left for the day; came back at night and still had no towels; toilet paper or soap) The reason for my disappointment is; basic services that I paid for were not met – such as: breakfast was sub par until the last day.

"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...

"Die Beschreibung des Apartments ist sehr irreführend. Es handelt sich um ein Apartment, in dem 2 Zimmer vermietet sind und man sich Küche und Aufenthaltsraum teilt, wie eine WG. Die Zimmer Einrichtung ist spartanisch,die Küche ist vernünftig ausgestattet. Lage ist gut. Kommunikation ebenso."

Go ahead, unplug and unwind in style. When you book one of our Zanzibar holiday rentals, the ordinary is in the rearview. Instead of sharing your vacation with hundreds of hotel guests, you get to take advantage of all the space at your private apartment. You also get to enjoy all the amenities of a private residence for a truly unique and memorable stay. Why don’t you take off your shoes and settle in for a while? Your holiday just got upgraded.

As much as you love your vacation rental, it’s always good to get out and explore to soak up Zanzibar. Live like a local: Eat regional food, cheer on the home team, and visit the best cultural attractions in town. No matter the season, there is always something going on in Zanzibar. Seeing all the best attractions is bound to make you fall in love with Zanzibar. Who knows, you may even be tempted to extend your stay. There’s a reason home rentals are so popular here—after a long day of exploration, going back to your very own living room to stretch out is a dream come true. 

It’s your escape so why share it? You deserve your own slice of paradise. Booking your holiday rental on Expedia is simple and safe. Just pick your dates to search for the perfect property and book securely. We let you contact the property owner directly to make any special arrangements. All that’s left to do is show up with bells on and have a memorable vacation. With all the amenities available in Zanzibar short-term rentals, that won’t be hard to do.
