We enjoyed every moment in Zanzistar ☀️ all employees were so nice, helpful and supportive. We loved the area, people, food ... Simply everything. Peter helped us with tours, mainly organized by Kacho and his team. Kacho is great guide, highly recommended. If you wish to spend your vacation with locals and not many tourists, Jambiani is great place to go and enjoy the atmosphere of real Zanzibar ❤️ we THANK everyone in Zanzistar who made our holiday unforgotable!

It was just really WOW!! Haji and his family was very kind and so helpfull. We felt like at home. Room was very spacious and cozy. Breakfast was just amazing!! We had to wait till evening to be hungry because we got every morning big plate full of fruits and eggs with totally delicios bread which baked Haji’s wife. We got also water and in the room was a small fridge, it was very nice surprise. Haji is very special person, he took us also to Jozani forest and Spice farm by dala dala and he took care about us like we were his family. Thank you !!! If we could we would rate 11/10!

This place is an absolute paradise! The fact that hotel is small, clean and full of people who really enjoys their work makes you feel like home. Alex was not only very helpful but also so kind and he always smiles to us! We felt there not like customers but rather like a part of family. Food is really tasty and the view there is incredible too! Everything was perfect.

Tamu house is very well located near the roundabout in Paje! It is only a short walk to the beach and even shorter walk to get all the goods you need, it's close to many restaurants and street food stands. Very easy to find and access by public transport. The value for money exceeded my expectations by far, the place was very clean with quality furniture, I even got a tv connected to Netflix in my room ! Spacious and clean private bathroom, nice AC, strong bed, plenty of storage space for my stuff! There is a shared kitchen that was kept clean and well equipped to prepare your own meals! The breakfast was delightful and generous! Powerful wifi connection! Super helpful and cheerful staff! The owner was particularly thoughful and welcoming!! The chilling areas outside are friendly, cozy and private at the same time! This place has all you need to enjoy a good experience in Paje! 100% recommended! This is where I stay every time I'm visiting Paje! Asante Sana Tamu House :)
