    Gorgeous Sun Terrace: The sun terrace at this lodge is like a little slice of heavenly paradise. Lounging by the outdoor pool, sipping on a refreshing cocktail from the bar, I felt like a celebrity basking in the sun, surrounded by tropical beauty.

    Limited Internet Connectivity: Unfortunately, the super-fast internet is not available at this lodge. However, with so much natural beauty and adventure to soak up, who needs to be glued to their screens anyway?

    We loved our stay at Zanzistar Guesthouse! the atmosphere was hip and colorful, the rooms were comfortable, and the staff was fantastic. the location was just a 1-minute walk to the beautiful beach of Jambiani. the food at the restaurant was excellent, especially the tuna bruschetta, ceviche, and grilled octopus. the cocktails and juices were refreshing, and the general areas of the guesthouse were some of the best on the island. a great place for a bigger group of friends.

    Felt happy, no reason to complain.

    I recently had a fantastic stay at a lodge in Jambiani. The owners, Fleur and her husband, have done an amazing job creating a vibrant and comfortable atmosphere. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the cocktails and juices were refreshing. The rooms were just as pictured and the common areas were some of the best on the island. The food, including the BBQ nights, was excellent. And the location, just a 1-minute walk from the beautiful beach, was perfect. I can't wait to book another stay at this wonderful place!

    Nothing 🙌

    What a gem! The lodge was well-maintained and had a cozy, intimate atmosphere. I stayed in a room with a private garden and hammock, which was perfect for relaxing. The staff were amazing, always checking in to make sure everything was perfect. The location in Jambiani was ideal, away from the crowds and party scene, with a pristine beach and turquoise sea. And the food at the lodge was top-notch - fresh and absolutely delicious!

    There were a couple of minor issues during my stay. The Wi-Fi was not always reliable, but I understand that it was out of the hotel's control due to local communication problems.
