Lodges in Jambiani

everything is better than the pictures. just amazing!

Great and a comfy stay! Will definitely be coming back! Location: the location is quite convenient. It’s right next to the main road going to Paje and 5-10 minutes walk away to the ocean. The building is in Jambiani village which is famous for its sweet, hospitable locals, and great beaches! Supermarkets and shops are all nearby. Check in: Thomas the owner who oversees things personally, was kind enough to arrange for an early check in despite the short notice. He’s easygoing and friendly to deal with. Easy and straightforward process. They accept cards without giving you the looks (many properties in Jambiani don’t happily accept cards). You can use Apple Pay or Samsung Pay. The place itself: this is a brand new building with great finishing. The owner takes pride in his trees and the villa is surrounded by greenery inside it. There’s a pool, kitchen with a big new fridge for guests to store food, shower facilities next to the pool. There’s also a terrace upstairs with huge area for people who wanna have some privacy or do calls or just relax. It offers a nice 360 view of the village on all sides. The rooms: the rooms are quite modern and they are practically designed and equipped with everything you want. The ac was working perfectly and it was a relief in hot afternoons and nights (many properties don’t have ac or it doesn’t work). Really comfy beds (probably the best bed and mattresses I slept on in Zanzibar), a safe which is quite handy, a little desk if you have work, big washroom with great water pressure, everything in the room was brand new and working fine. The internet: I had couple of meetings and was suffering from the poor internet in other proper I. The wifi really saved me. The experience: the owner who was also staying at the property is warm and makes sure to check in on you and see if you need anything (the stay itself, directions, restaurant recommendations, etc.

From the minute I walked into this place, it felt like family. While very comfortable, the property is not 5 star, however the staff are 5 star plus some. I've travelled a bit and have never had service like this place anywhere else in the world. The room was a good size and clean, the food prepared by the chefs was amazing, the outdoor areas were comfortable, the tours were arranged by Haji and Abu for a good price and anytime I needed to go somewhere, I just had to ask. Abu was fabulous company on the long drives. I would not hesitate to recommend Mkeka Lodge to anyone who is looking for accommodation in Zanzibar. Thanks guys for a memorable holiday..! 💗💗

The staff named Mr. Haji was incredibly amazing, cheerful and helpful. The breakfast was absolutely great.

I keep coming here because it's a very peaceful and quiet place where I relax like nowhere else. The host is just wonderful, the staff is at service, the atmosphere chilling...Love it.

Everything, the cute rooms in the middle of a beautiful garden and in the middle a pool just a few steps from the beach with breakfast on the porch 👍

This is what you call tradition. The same chef for years and food mastered to perfection. Drinks are amazing. Super staff. We are always back in Demani anticipating every meal and precious relax time. This time we had bungalow with private bathroom on the back of the lodge. So many birds tweeting around- we loved it. The room is cozy, bed comfortable, bedsheets super fresh, bathroom spacious with amazing emerald colored walls. There is plenty of space to chill around the restaurant/bar/pool area. The pool has super clean water which i find very important! I cant wait to be back. For sure.

I liked everything, the location, staff, breakfast, room and the amazing view.

Evergreen Bungalows is the most beautiful place on earth. The upper floor beach front bungalows are like staying in a treehouse on the beach. The bed is huge and super comfortable. The balcony overlooking the beach has a daybed, table and a chair. You can walk straight on to the beach. Monkeys jump around in the trees directly outside the balcony. The food is amazing, and an incredible breakfast is included in the price. The beach, although wild and windy when we were there end July/beginning of August is stunning. Absolutely perfect!

Excellent staff and owner. Very sweet. Excellent service. Excellent views from restaurant/bar and rooms. Only two minute drive to the beach. Food was great too.
