Mau and mama Sabrina and little Sabrina and his brother Sule are amazing people. We were welcomed so warmly and made to feel like part of the family. We absolutely loved the village and the experience was just wonderful. We are definitely going back in the future. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 From mama Rose,papa Rose and Rose.🌹

I’m a solo traveller who was welcomed warmly by Mau, Nasmah and of course adorable little Chabi who everyone loves. They treated me like a friend, took me to visit his parents for a chapati making lesson, and were just warm, genuine hosts. They made my fondness for Jambiani that much stronger, and I would love to go back :)

We loved everything during our stay. The room was very comfortable, nicely furnished and perfect for us. The breakfast was the best we have had in a long time and you’re not hungry for a while after that. Mau’s family is very welcoming and we were sad to leave after only 3 nights there. We wish we had stayed longer!! The village was also very nice, very relaxed and the place is close to a beautiful beach. Oh and don’t miss a fun activity: go fishing during the sunset :) Thank you Mau!

Basic room and equipments (this is indeed an authentic house). Cleanliness could be improved. Impossible to find by yourself: phone and wait for someone to pick you up, or ask for very specific instructions!
2 minutes away from the beach. Very good breakfast. Staff is nice and helpful.
