The accommodation is perched on a small cliff with stunning views of the sea in the background. It’s a peaceful spot, ideal for escaping the hustle and bustle of the busier tourist areas. Less than 200 meters away, there’s a quiet, almost deserted beach—perfect for enjoying the tranquility and natural beauty of Zanzibar without the crowds. I’d like to highlight the exceptional hospitality of Jamal and his team, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was unforgettable. Always kind and attentive, they took care of every detail to make us feel at home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and authentic experience in Zanzibar

Great clean, comfortable apartments across from the Tembo hotel; we liked being independent but with the use of the hotel facilities. Super location with friendly, helpful staff. Arranged a walking tour of Stonetown (the guide was called Chief - he was brilliant!) and a spice farm visit via reception - they were both excellent; really good value and both with a private guide.

The service was great, they organised our taxis to and from the airport and got up at 3am to let us in as our flight arrived during the night. We were also able to leave our bags with them in the afternoon while we finished doing a bit of visiting before catching another plane to mainland Tanzania. Right in town but nice and quiet and safe.

    The Villa is a jewel. it was saved and restored from a nature that was literally claiming and swallowing it back. The White Villa stands Out from its beautiful green garden but without being intrusive with nature. The garden and the Door Collection absolutely deserve a visit. the room was really well designed and furnished. you have really the feeling to be in a small bubble suspended out of time.
