You can truly call this place home. The hotel has 2 buildings with 4 rooms each. This allows the hotel staff to pay attention to each guest, avoiding the fuss. The meeting of us as guests was organized in the best way: at the agreed time, the driver met us with a sign and carefully escorted us to a comfortable mini-bus. We arrived at the hotel early in the morning, they waited for us and settled us immediately (I booked a room a day earlier, so as not to wait for the official check-in time from lunch). The room is very spacious, on the first floor overlooking the pool and the ocean. We spent the evening on the balcony listening to the sound of the waves. An important point: I have a rather capricious back and I was worried that sleeping on the bed would be painful. The excitement turned out to be in vain: a solid wood bed, heavy, with a good hard mattress and comfortable pillows. The sleep was amazing. Meals according to the "breakfast" system are quite varied: we never left hungry, and my favorite breakfast was avocado toasts and freshly squeezed juice :) The hotel menu is extensive, the food is delicious. The staff at the hotel is very friendly and does everything to ensure that guests from the first minute of their stay at the hotel are immersed in the atmosphere of "Pole Pole". The ebbs of the ocean did not bother us at all: we walked to the water and were already lying there before the arrival of high water. The only annoying thing is the algae, which wash up on the shore in large numbers. The atmosphere in the hotel can really be described as "family" - this is the exclusive merit of both the manager and the rest of the staff. Amazing vacation, just amazing.

I liked that it was right on the beach. The staff was super friendly and the dinner and breakfast was superb, loved that they had freshly made mango or pineapple juice in the morning.

Kerrie

From

New Zealand

Villa Juliana is a little gem and was perfect for us after a 10 day safari in Tanzania. The location is amazing, right on a beautiful beach, the room was spacious and clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. We could not have asked for more. They went out of their way to make our stay a happy one and always had a big smile. Another lovely aspect was that the manager let us have the room until late at no additional cost, as we had a night flight. This was hugely appreciated and made our 42 hour travel back to NZ so much easier. Our only upset with Villa Juliana was that we had to leave! We would have liked to stay longer :-)

From

Everything - the staff is amazing (shout out to Charlotte, Jeremy and Martin as well as all the servers), the location is perfect, the facilities and the room are comfortable and cozy, and it is great value for money. I felt extremely safe as a solo female traveler and would recommend this place to anyone! The beach: I loved the changing tides, it made for a very special experience. In the morning, you could walk out so far and see people farming the algae. by the afternoon, the water was nearly to the hotel property and you could swim easily. In the late afternoon, all the local kids are out playing - girls running on the beach and boys playing football. At night, you can take your flash light on your phone and walk far out as it’s low tide, and admire the stars above you. The hotel room - so clean and comfortable! The hotel generally - beautiful and cozy. I loved sitting upstairs for meals and watching the sea and feeling the breeze. I could always find my own space that was serene and tranquil, even as a solo traveler. They even had water shoes and sunscreen you could use, which really came in handy! Prices were fair and reasonable. Food was delicious (excellent veggie options, great happy hour and cocktails, and excellent fruit juices). Activities- I went on a snorkeling trip on a traditional sail boat and it was amazing! The hotel organized it. Next door is a kite surf place and had I had more time, I would have loved to try. Jambiani is the best area - tranquil though well serviced, still feels authentic despite an obvious influx of tourists.

If you're going to Jambiani, The Spot is an excellent choice! With its perfect location on the beach and its exquisite cuisine, The Spot offers quality and value. The bartender also makes the most refreshing lime, mint and soda of all time! But the best part are the hosts, who took very good care of me in an unexpected health emergency. Thanks to them, I continued with my trip with confidence.

I gave top rate on each category and it's true feedback.. Owner Savio lives within premises , so you have personal touch and lots of freebies😊.. we had free room upgrade and late check out which is a nice gesture.. Staff Tumi, Wilson were nice , had proactive discussions and arranged transport whenever needed.. Place is as shown in the pictures, to the dot.. nice huts, insta perfect pool, lovely long stretch of sandy white beach, bar and restaurant right on the beach.. safe and fridge in the room.. water heater in the bathroom, water pressure was good.. rooms cleaned well everyday.. even umbrella was provided.. so everything is provided and nothing else I could ask for.. Beware, this place is so insta perfect, you can't stop clicking pictures particularly when you travel with wife🤪

FAQs about hotels in Jambiani

What guests said about Jambiani:

Jambiani Beach is one of the most beautiful and authentic...

Jambiani Beach is one of the most beautiful and authentic beaches in Zanzibar. Long stretches of soft white sand, calm turquoise waters, and a peaceful rhythm shaped by the tides create a place that feels untouched and timeless. Life here moves slowly — fishermen at dawn, women collecting seaweed, gentle evenings painted by the sunset. It is quiet, spacious, and deeply relaxing, yet full of character and soul. Perfect for long walks, swimming at high tide, and simply being present. Jambiani is not about crowds or noise — it is about beauty, simplicity, and harmony with nature. A beach that stays with you long after you leave.

A peaceful and welcoming town with a strong sense of community and a safe, relaxing atmosphere. We stayed in a peaceful part of town, where there were noticeably fewer street vendors selling beads and souvenirs compared to other areas. This made the atmosphere even more calm and relaxing, allowing us to fully enjoy the local charm without feeling overwhelmed.

Its a remote beach far away from the airport, it took me 1:30 hours to reach, and with a late flight u reach a gost city, no place to buy a sim card, to exchaeg money, taxi drivers are like sharks, the road is narrow, not lit, not fully paved, my old taxi driver did an accident, the beaches are amazing, great white sands, cool lovely waters, but tides are very low and high over the same day. 50 meters away from the beach and you are out of the paradise into a nondeveloped village, prices are as high as euorpe and the service quality is almost nil.

In July 2024 we spent 5 nights at the S&S hotel . It was the perfect location for us to relax after our Safari and hiking trip. Great location right at the beach with unbeatable views. All staff members are super friendly, the food is amazing and fresh, the entire hotel kept clean all day, comfy beds. Jambiani had a few restaurant options (Pishi) if you want to go out. We had room 10 with 240 view on the ocean.

Breakfast was ok, but service was outrageously slow. Same at lunch and same at dinner. we went to several local restaurants and the service was equally poor. Location was great and the beach at Jambiani is idyllic. Long walk to get to water at low tide! There is a massage parlour at the hotel and the service provided by the staff is really good and great value for money at buy three , get two free (150USD)

Breakfast was served at the table, snacks, dinner and drinks were very good as well. The room was cleaned everyday. All tours and drivers organized by the hotel were what we wished for.
