Self-Catering Accommodations in Jambiani

Everything about our stay exceeded expectations. The apartment was finished to an exceptionally high standard, with fantastic facilities and superb internet. Having a dedicated office space was invaluable as I work remotely, and the swimming pools plus the wide breakfast selection made the experience even better. I would recommend The Oasis Residence without hesitation, especially for families. The staff were outstanding, consistently going the extra mile and truly enhancing our stay. A special mention goes to Joseph, who drove my wife and daughter with exceptional care while I was working. He is an incredibly safe and reliable driver, and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing transport in the evenings, when taxis or tuk‑tuks can be difficult to find.

Location is perfect it is 30 seconds away from the beach, everything is very clean. Staff is also top tier.

Olamanga was exactly what I needed. A wonderful property with sand everywhere, a gorgeous lounge area with pool and lush tropical surroundings that made it incredibly easy to just switch off and unwind. There are plenty of spots to lounge around the property, and I genuinely spent a lot of my three nights here simply enjoying the space rather than venturing out. Ralu and Lee who run the property are genuine, friendly, and supportive with any request. The staff are equally helpful and attentive. The in-house restaurant and bar serves meals throughout the day with a great cook, so you never feel the need to go far for food. My terrace room was a decent size with a very generous seating area and its own kitchenette, well equipped, clean, and provided with all the essentials. A lovely touch I didn't anticipate was Ralu's aromatherapy diffuser in the room. I didn't think much of it at first but after spending enough time there, the difference in ambience was genuinely noticeable and added to the overall sense of calm. The beach is a one-minute walk away and absolutely gorgeous, noticeably less crowded than other beaches on the island. In-house massage services can also be arranged. And if you love cats, two resident ones are always lounging around the property. Give them a few pets from me.

Everything…. It was beyond our expectations The service is exceptional the location is just wonderful

We had a truly special stay at Jambiani Beach Villas in Zanzibar. The villa was beautifully designed with stunning interiors, semi-private pools, and breathtaking views from both the terrace and balcony. We were lucky enough to receive an upgrade, which made the experience even more memorable. The accommodation itself was so lovely that we skipped excursions just to enjoy the house and surroundings. Breakfast was excellent, and both the restaurant and room service were efficient, fast, and very attentive. We felt well taken care of throughout our stay and would highly recommend it.

The room was well designed with direct access to the beach. The ambience was very elegant and the design is well thought through. We really loved the amenities like beach towels, hats, etc kept for us. This was one of the best place we have stayed this year and great value for money! Highly recommended.

First of all, I want to thank Paola and her team for our fantastic vacation. Thanks to them, we felt right at home in this paradise. Now, about the location itself. There are 12 villa-apartments here. Some have one bedroom, some have two, which is convenient for families with children. The apartments are spacious and have a kitchen equipped with cooking utensils. There's even a blender for smoothies, which is great because ripe fruit is sold here. The residence has several generators in case of power outages. The Wi-Fi is decent. There are two excellent swimming pools and plenty of sun loungers. Breakfast is good: scrambled eggs, pancakes, pastries, toast, fruit, tea, coffee. The beach is a 3-minute walk away, but you can only swim during high tide. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay, and we will definitely recommend this place!

location was amazing... breakfast and all services excellent.

It was very clean and near the beach. The rooms were spacious, and we had a fridge, toaster, and pans to make ourselves breakfast. There were a couple of beach restaurants for evening meals.

Absolutely everything!!! Beautiful and extremely clean apartment, great, relaxing terrace, very spacious and comfortable! Also perfect location and above all, the best host ever! Thank you Liza for unforgettable stay, we will definitely come again ❤️❤️

Everything. The pool, the ocean right Infront of you. Every bedroom had en suite. Calister was an amazing host from before we checked in she checked up on us because we were running late and gave us directions to the villa. She gave us a welcome card water and fruits. Throughout our whole stay she was amazing and good to us. She provided us with a private chef that came to the house and cooked. Such fresh and amazing tasting food. This is the best villa we have ever stayed in. She even had couple board games we could play in the evening. We also felt very safe with our 24/7 masaii security on the grounds. All in all cannot put into words how me and my family loved this place. We will be back soon. Thanks for everything Calister. You made our stay that much better.

We were lucky to discover this beautiful place that became our home for a while! Very quiet, beautiful garden, with an amazing team and everything you may need while living. Next to the ocean, close to Paje and Jambiani at the same time, but hidden in the bushes. 💚 Not a single problem with electricity, water, wi-fi, which is the key factors on the island. It is also very safe place with high quality protection on the whole territory. Our cats were happy to stay as well, and meet Baobab cutie-cats! Barbara was highly reactive to anything we needed during our stay, very loving and became our family.🤍 Coming back to Zanzibar we will definitely stay at Baobab.

This is a gorgeous villa. The garden is very lovely, the pool is so nice and the view from the Banda is the absolute best. The staff is so friendly and helpful. There’s airconditioning in the entire villa, just not in the sea view room above the Banda. It’s good that they have a back up generator. We really loved our stay. It was lovely seeing dikdik’s and monkeys in the garden. The guards are so friendly, we had great fun with them and the owner is so friendly and whenever you have a question she responds on WhatsApp within minutes. Service is excellent.

Very clean and spacious rooms.

Location couldn't be better. Right on the beach. Staff was very helpful and 15 meters walk on the beach to a restaurant

My family and I enjoyed being right on the beach with a stunning sunrise every single morning and the bercing sounds of waves all night long. Villa Hibiscus is definitively one of best places to be in Jambiani. A well-balanced piece of love, sérénité, and peace by the Indian ocean.
