This place is very friendly, staff is amazing, they are mostly locals so u can feel the Zanzibar best atmosphere. It is not a hotel so if u expect perfect condition u will not find those there, but the atmosphere rewards all. Best double Rum&Cola, good prices of food an beverage. Only disadvantage is that it hasn't got direct access... More

Really good beach and nicely designed place. Rooms good value but food and drink a bit expensive. Simba the Barman is a very cool guy. There could be some more sunbeds on the beach. But otherwise great!! Highly recommended

After hearing about this hostel and having taken a look at the website, we had high expectations about this place. Unfortunately, there was a big mismatch between what we expected and what New Teddy's Place offered us. Although we like and appreciate the philosophy behind the hostel (affordable food and stay, a free and 'hippie' atmosphere, everyone is welcome) and... More

We've paid a lot to have practically a hostel accommodation. Shared bathrooms, no water (so the bathrooms were not very clean), dirty sheets and mosquito nets, not curtains on the windows, no waste bin, no privacy, breakfast was ok. For the conditions, we would have expected to pay not more than half!!!!!

I spent 2 weeks at New Teddy’s Place and I was very happy with my choice. It's ideal for backpackers and all "young souls", who prefer good vibes over 5 star conditions. All bungalows have sandy floors and the bathroom is shared. The food at the bar is good and the prices very reasonable. The location is perfect for kitesurfers,... More

In start to make a difference, theres is a Teddy's place and New Teddy's place. We stayed in New one. What to say, being on this longitude and lattitude you dont need much to feel great and for this price you can afford to stay longer. It's great place to spend time, staff is very friendly, food is very good,... More

The staff were friendly and the position and make up of the accommodation was simple yet effective as you felt like you were on a beach holiday. The chill out area was wonderful and the cleanliness was out the top draw.

We stayed in a big bungalow with sand floor and hand-made wooden furniture. Bed was a small climb to the top of the hut. Really nice and romantic. There's a backpacker vibe in this place, mostly young people which we thought was great. It's really easy to meet new people at the bar. Staff is also very nice. I recommend... More
