All rooms at the inn are fitted with a seating area. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, some units at Chokoro House also feature a terrace. At the accommodation the rooms are fitted with bed linen and towels.

We loved everything. The breakfast is amazing, it is prepared fresh every morning and it is different every day. Location is perfect, just 100m from the beach. Rooms are really nice with AC and fan and a big bed. The owners are really helpful. Wi-Fi was the best we had in all of Zanzibar.

    It was a true pleasure staying at Reef & Beach Spa Jambiani. The front staff was very kind and helpful, greeted us with warm smile, made us very happy from the beginning of the day we arrived. The room was tidy and clean. We had a problem with our shower one time, but when we talked it with reception, the maintanence team promptly dealt with the problem. The food was really delicious too !

    Beach front bungalows ! Revelation ! I love hotels like this ! Excellent standard, real africa, clean, pleasant. Excellent beach, great pool, food very good, we took the option of All Inclusive ( surcharge on site) and it was great. Good price, delicious food with no limit. The cook - sensational. We also ordered a seafood special dinner - extra charge, but it was great. I also recommend the breakfast in the pool with the floating tray ! Shock ! We simply fell in love with Pili Pili Uhuru !

    Zanzistar was such a great discovery! The staff is the kindest we met in Zanzibar, they are professional and lovely and we loved our time there. The location is perfect, two steps to the beach and the surrounding was our favorite part of Jambiani! The room was beautiful, clean and nicely decorated, and the same we can say about the common area. We loved the banana garden. We had a night movie while having dinner. The food is delicious and so are the cocktails!! Overall one of the best time of my entire trip! Do I recommend it?!!! 100%!

    Beautiful room with a view to the beach and see. The room was always clean (cleaned once a day). The breakfast was incredible, there was a big selection of different fresh foods. The stuff were always friendly and helpful. Especially Nadia from the reception, she always organizes us our wishes, for example the trip to Mnemba Island. Also Rose, Happy and Roger at the Restaurant give there beste so that we could have a great time. (fresh made juices or cocktails at the beach) Al in al, we had a very good time here at the cinnamon hotel.

    The staff is wonderful and very helpful. We stayed in a Bungalow with Sea View. Although these rooms have no air conditioning, we found the ocean breeze and the fan to be enough to keep us comfortable. Breakfast is very good! And the restaurant is good in general - we had several dinners here as well. The view is great, the beach is beautiful. Be aware that the ocean here is tidal, so the water can recede quite far. This did not bother us because we could always use the pool :)
