I'm shocked to read the comments!After a week I extended my stay like the Canadian couple I met their, they were as impressed as I was. New owners only took over end of February, give the couple a brake!!! I think it was an amazing, unique, experience,and they are doing an amazing job, I'll definitely go back once a year... More

Under new management the owner over promises and under delivers. The setting is beautiful but the guest experience is appalling. Everyday we experienced no water for a number of hours. The electricity continued to go out and a generator that kept running out of fuel. The food was disgusting. The kitchen was filthy. The menu had a choice of 20... More

My Fiance and I spent a week at Dhow Beach Resort (landed back in SA 17th April 2012). It was amazing. The staff went out of their way to give good service, and, despite a language problem they did most of what we asked. The food was really good, the fish and calamari was no more than a couple of...

Me and my husband was at Dhow Beach Village last week and we had awesome time. The staff is very friendly and they make sure to help you with anything they can. Looks like they are new in the business but putting lots of effort to make the place nice and to make you feel welcome. Inspiring couple - adrenalin... More

My wife and I visited this resort During March 2012 after we reacted on an advertisement offering everything one could hope for at a stylish resort. The place is under new management but is in an awfull state. The accommodation is very basic with no comfort - there is no cupboard or shelve to unpack luggage. The standby generator can... More

If you are looking for a small place where you can party with locals all night and sleep on a beautiful beach all day, this is the place for you. This was the only place on the beautiful and peaceful beach of Jambiani, that was playing loud music after 10pm. We stayed in the bungalow closest to the beach, and... More

While the location of this hotel could not be better (on the secluded coast of Eastern Zanzibar) the staff here could not be more incompetent. The woman in charge, a crass and absent hotel manager, was completely unhelpful in booking and tried to charge us much more than she had originally quoted. While the staff of teenage boys were friendly,... More

I stayed here because the good reviews on tripadvisor were so nice, but it is not true. The owners were not there when I stayed at the hotel and I wonder if it had something to do with the constant music (loud from 5pm ) and poor service. The restaurant was bizarre. It took a very long time for us... More

while this place may be tricky to find given the lack of signs, persistence will be rewarded, especially in room #3! bunglaow right on the beach, right beside the bar! everyone will greet you with a cheery "jambo" and you'll be in awe of the place for your whole stay. they do things a bit differently in jambiani -- have...
