This little peace if heaven just between Jambiani in Paje is a great place to spend your holidays in calmness away from the touristic spots, but within reach of hand! The hosts are super super super nice and are open for all the questions and concernes. They can organize a taxi to everywhere you want to go on Zanzibar and they offer trips as well. Nyumbani offers 7 cottages that are perfect for a family vacation or vacation with friends. Because there is only a frw cottages, there is never a crowd at the pool! What we liked was that each cottage has its own kitchen - so you can hop to the market, to buy some fresh fruits, veggies and seafod and prepare your own meal. But uf you preffer, there is a lot of restaurants just 5min walking from Nyumbani residence. The place is also close to the beach (3min walk), but we preffered to swim at the pool! Everything was just perfect and we wish to come back!!

Clean Beautiful Private Staff were AMAZING. So so so friendly and helpful.

We had a very nice week in Nyumbani Residence! Lovely people, great location, delicious breakfast and very clean anf beautiful apartment! Highly recommended 🤗

I loved the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of the accommodation. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the pool and garden were beautiful. I would highly recommend staying at this place to anyone who is interested in staying near Paje or Jambiani. The beach is only a short walk away, and if you have a car, you can easily visit the towns of Paje or Jambiani for more shopping and exploration. Additionally, the apartments have a kitchen, so if you would like to prepare some snacks or prepare something to eat, this is also possible. Finally, Paola and her husband were very welcoming and made us feel at home the moment we entered.

Eco friendly, perfect, comfortable, spacious accommodation, just what my family needed giving us the flexibility of self catering or enjoying the many restaurants located nearby and slightly further away - in Paje 10mins by taxi. Paola is a warm, welcoming, helpful host and all her staff are exceptional. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nyumbani Residence.

The management of the hotel and the staff were incredible - every detail was looked after and nothing was too much trouble. The apartments are super clean and the setting is attractive with a great pool(s) and proximity to the beach. Shops are nearby and there is a great range of eating options. The rooms, bathroom and kitchen are clean and have everything you need for a great holiday. We would not hesitate in recommending to anybody wishing to visit Zanzibar. Paola helped organise trips and we always felt that we were in good hands with high quality drivers and tour providers which cut out the hassle and assured a good time. Thank you so much for exceeding our expectations and ensuring we had an incredible holiday

Personally, I liked that everything was within reach. The beach is a short walk away, there were caves to explore close by which was also a walking distance from the residence, and the ATMs were a short bike ride away.

Everyone so kindly and helpful and doing they best to make sure you’ll have a great stay. Came late aftennoon, had loads of laundry - it was ready early next morning. The apartments are spacious, neat and clean, kitchen is equipped to make lunch, supper etc. Wi-Fi is good. Pools are nice. 2 minutes walk from the beach.

Paola and Daniele and the staffs are very welcoming and helpful. Very nice hotel with big rooms, nice pools and nice view. Very quiet. Great time for our family. Highly recommended!

Nyumbani is such a relaxing place to stay. This was our second visit and we'll definitely be back!
