Place is wonderfull, hotel is not big - it has about 12 rooms, which was probably the best part for me, there aren't any annoying beach boys on the beach (unlike other tourist spots in Zanzibar) or close to hotel. Place is quiet and you can just enjoy amazing viewes of the blue sea on the pier or even inside the pool on the pier. Paddle boat and kayaks were available for free, and the snorkeling around reef (about 500m from the hotel) was amazing, a lot of corals, anemones, sea stars, urchins and fishes. Food was also great, but not all meals were available every day (especially fishes and sea food - I guess it depends on the catch of the day). Staff was the uniqie thing for me, which made the stay even more memorable - Diana and her collegue (sadly I can't remember his name), who even offered us to show us local village of Makunduchi. I really appreciate their services. We originally booked standard room and we were upgraded for 2 nights to room with private pool, so we had a chance to compare both variants - I really liked the room itself at pool-variant, because it was much bigger and bit more modern with alexa music, pool itself was a nice addition, well lit during night-time, but in the same time it attracted a lot of insect, bugs and other tiny creatures, they gatherted there every evening, there are other 2 pools in public area of hotel, so I wouldn't fully agree with other reviews that private pool is a must-do and is way better, but definately it is not worse. Both types of rooms were nice though.

It is a very quiet place to stay in. Excellent location, by the Jambiani beach.
Staff pay attention to every little detail. The manager and his team take good care of you.

The room is super clean.
I wish I had stayed longer or at least finished my Zanzibari trip there. It was a top choice!

The view of the ocean from the room was great. It truly is a place you can go to get away and unwind.We liked the manager, Francisco's immediate response to rectify our concerns after the power outage due to a generator issue. He immediately was able to rectify the issue and comped our first night dinner and gave us a room upgrade for the trouble. The restaurant where very friendly and pleased.

If you like large good value for money hotels and you are looking for all inclusive then this is for you. I opted for this hotel for the safari option and for that reason it was well worth it. Book local hire taxis and next time I would stay at a smaller hotel not catering for the masses, but that’s my fault for not researching it more. Just not sure a hotel that size works in that location.

Although it is far from the airport, being on the south side of the Island, this hotel is located very conveniently. There is a turtle cave, a swimming cave and dolphin viewing within 15 minutes drive from the hotel. I did not need to find restaurants as the hotel provided all meals.

a nice little place with shops, cafes and restaurants run by locals
can be reached on foot via the long, white beach
Water level depends on the tide. At low tide there are lovely walks in the soft sand

The beach has a lot of algae. The sea is extremely hot.
The beach has a lot of algae. The sea is extremely hot. The southern tip of the island where the sea is deeper is much nicer. The restaurants are so so. Fish is never fresh! Locals can be annoying. Too much contact.

Jambiani is a great place to visit when you aren't looking...
Jambiani is a great place to visit when you aren't looking for an extremely busy beach with lots of noise. That being said, there were still "beach parties" with noise until about midnight. Be aware of the high and low tides, and plan your activities accordingly. Several great restaurants and bars on the small walkable beach. Always felt safe as a solo female traveler.
The Hotel is wonderfull, the restaurant is the best we had in Zanzibar. It is super clean, has a good location in Jambiani and it has everything you need. The hosts are out of this world, they have been most helpful and they are going out of their way to help you with everything you need, best hotel owners we’ve seen in the last decade at least. I totally recommand this place, would rate it higher than 5 stars if i could, oh and did i tell you about how good the food is? It can compete with any major hotel in Europe
This was a small, quiet, boutique beachfront hotel, nicely furnished (also we loved the smell of the coconut and lime shampoo, bath soap and conditioner that were available in the beautiful bathroom) with very helpfull and kind staff. I must also say big thanks to the owner Mr. Francis (hope I spelled it right) who was especially kind and welcoming. The restaurant in the hotel has really amazing food.
Its a green-energy focused resort, and outstanding serenity and tranquility in the area of the hotel. Beautiful and empathic staff they have. Unfortunately i had to cut my holiday short and travel back to my home, they were understanding to an extent and they refunded a portion of my money back. Still grateful for that.
Will definitely consider this hotel when i come back to you Zanzibar
New Teddy's is like paradise, a lot of corners to relax, great breakfast and good dinner. We had an excellent tour in the village with cooking class with the Hotel guide and musician Coco, who also helped us in organizing our way back to Stone Town passing by Josiani Park and a spice farm. Thanks Coco. Great place to enjoy the beach and at the same time discover Zanzibar life!
The location is amazing- tucked away in the beautiful beaches of Jambiani, Geo's is quiet and offers more privacy than similar hotels in Paje. I often have dinner there but this was my first overnight stay and it was very comfortable. I had a villa right on the beach and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay there again.
This was exactly the isolated, relaxed sort of place that I was looking for. Situated on a quiet beach in the south of Zanzibar, facing the Indian Ocean with a wonderful warm breeze. The staff was friendly and I had a nice night watching the AFCON matches in the social/eating area. They upgraded me to one of the beach facing bungalows as well.
My girlfriend and I chose to spend the last couple of nights of our trip to Tanzania at Passion Boutique Hotel and were not disappointed. It is nice with good food and the perfect place to relax. Everybody working here is so nice and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel to everybody planning to visit Jambiani/Paje.
I stayed 4 nights and enjoy every moment of my stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Specially the manager and the waitress. The breakfast was very delicious and the food was very good. The place is just very peaceful and quite and very close to the beach. The view of the hotel is really amazing. Thank you for everything.
We had an amazing stay in Jambiani. The area is very beautiful and authentic.
The hotel is placed right on the beach and run by great people. 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.
- Great location! It's right on the beach.
- Friendly staff. They found me a driver back to Stone town, and the driver, Mudi, is nice and punctual. We talked a lot on the way, and we're friends now!
- Quiet at night, which is great, because many seaside hotels play loud music till midnight.
- Good breakfast.
Very nice hotel next to the beach with very friendly staff. Good breakfast as well :) the area is lovely and it has a lot of restaurants arround!
We had to do a prepayment online and at first I thought it was strange, but that’s most of the hotels in zanzibar so no worries!
I recomend it 100%.
The hotel is very beautiful! Everything is put together with thoughtfully and well looked after! The food and juices tastes amazing every time ! The short way to the beach is a big plus including the beach bar. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. Like everyone we met on our trip!
This hotel is stores away from the beach, has comfy rooms, a nice pool, wonderful staff, excellent breakfast, and takes many steps to be eco friendly. They even have a water cooler offering refillable drinking water. This was our favourite hotel in Zanzibar and definitely worth going to.
Kim is a very nice person, and very helpful, we had a great time in Jambiani. Breakfasts were big and tasty. The staff did our laundry, we got it back in excellent condition. The place is just next to the beach, and a few km from Paje (worth visiting). We really enjoyed our stay there.
The location in relation to the beach is good since the hotel faces the beach. The area is little developed (Jambiani) from a tourist point of view. The receptionist (man) helped us do all the activities we had planned. The hotel is not big but it has what you need.
Terrific location. It offers a very nice common area - I'd say the nicest common area among all hotels in Jambiani beach, simple but very chic. The room has a nice African character. Shower was very good except when water ran out (but this is Zanzibar!)
The location of the hotel right on the Beach was really great! The atmoshere In Jambiani was super relaxed, welcoming and felt like you actually got to sense the local vibe.
Beautiful property right at the seafront of Jambiani beach. Excellent breakfast and top notch service. Kitesurf and water sports centre available in the hotel.
The staff is very friendly and are always willing to help. The beach is very beautiful and the hotel has sunbeds next to the beach so you can really enjoy it.
