A hidden gem in Jambiani Beach. For us, the decision on where to spend our 4 days in Jambiani was between three different hotels. I am so glad we decided to stay at Zanzistar Lodge. This was also by far the cheapest out of the three options. The value for money can´t be beaten. We especially enjoyed the outside hammocks, the beach, the breakfast, the staff, the drinks and the cozy banana garden. Peter, one of the two managers, personally showed us every room. The luggage was taken care of by the staff and we even were invited to a welcome drink as we arrived. The beach bar has excellent food, great drinks and a perfect beach vibe. The beach was our favorite of all the beaches on the island. We went to Matemwe, Nungwi, Kendwa and Kizimkazi, but Jambiani was by far our favorite. The numerous colors of green and blue in the ocean is just spectacular. Thank you to all the staff that went out of their way to make us feel at home and took care of all of our needs. Take good care of them, as it is the people that make places like Zanzistar Lodge worth every penny. For us, we personally enjoy the small boutique hotels over the big resorts. The hospitality here was nothing else than outstanding. We hope to be back sometime in the near future.

very spacious room, air conditioner, super caring staff, the modest and sincere owner and his helpers were charming, who personally took care of everything, took me to individual entertainment to see the rocks or go snorkeling according to my plans, told local stories. Staff constantly tried to do the extra step, for example climbed a palm tree to serve a coconut drink for breakfast. breakfast was very big - a dish from eggs, mashed fruit cocktail and a full plate of various fruits that I couldn't get over.

The fact that we stayed for 2 extra nights says a lot. Rooms were big and clean and the hosts made us feel at home. After previous, more expensive accomodation, we were pleasently surprised as it is very budget friendly but also has everything we need. It is like in pictures plus very close to the beach. The owner was taking us to amazing places around. We would definitely come back.
