Guesthouse Zanzistar Lodge
Jambiani Zanzibar, Jambiani, Tanzania – Great location - show map
The rooms were very clean, food delicious and the beach bar served delicious food.

- friendly and helpful hosts , great welcome and directions - nice facilities, good and well thought decor - really good food

A small place with intimate unique feel and great restaurant - best seafood / any food we had in 3 weeks in Zanzibar. Worth every penny eaten in a small banana garden. Friendly attentive staff that understand customer service. We booked last minute and have no regrets. Not on a beach per say, but their Bar is and you can walk over in 2 min and enjoy their great food and nice beach lounge. Vert enjoyable relaxed no shoes stay!

Good, modern rooms a bit further away from the beach. The staff is hospitable and quick to take action.

We loved the hotel vibe. It was wonderful to have a pool! The breakfast was very good and satisfying. I liked that they offered a four person family suite.

We absolutely loved the atmosphere, service and the whole team at Zanzistar. Peter the manager is amazing, super friendly and extremely helpful from the minute we arrived to the minute we left. The relaxing and cool decor, the rooms are very comfortable and the food is excellent. We also loved Zanzistar beach bar vibe.

The staff is extremely friendly. The place feels very homey and is truly luxury without a fuss. I will go back

Staff were all incredibly nice and helpful! Drinks (fresh juices and cocktails, etc were excellent. Food was great. Front desk staff went out of their way to assist us with missing luggage. Wonderful experience overall and we hope to return!

An extraordinary beautiful place with super friendly staff and delicious food! Everybody working there is really warm and they help you with anything you need. The hotel has a very aesthetic style and is located in a safe area next to small shops and other restaurants. Another plus is that it’s really authentic - in the middle of the local life of Zanzibar.

Do you know the sensation of arriving home? It’s the second time in Zanzistar and that’s the way we feel. Among friends, at home. Peter is the perfect manager, Simon and Rafa are amazing and Jerry Is the most amazing DJ 😁.
