A hot tub and a car rental service are available for guests. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

You can play billiards at this 5-star hotel, and the area is popular for canoeing. Zanzibella is a piece of paradise. I have changed four different hotels to see the whole island and zanzibella was by far the best place I have stayed (I regret that I didn't stay more). The room I had was absolutely perfect with views at the pool and the sea, clean and huge. The food was delicious and in really reasonable / cheap price. The staff was always available to help with everything, educated and always with a warm smile. They had live music every night the time I stayed there. The music band's singer is the best voice I have ever heard and his show was amazing. The area of the hotel is very nice, you can see the real local life all around which makes this place unique. I never repeat countries but I could make an exception to come back here. A special thanks to the staff and their manager for the beautiful stay. I will miss you.

Located in Jambiani, 300 metres from Jambiani Beach, Zanzi Soul Luxury Boutique Hotel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a private beach area. This 4-star hotel offers a kids' club, room service and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy African and American dishes at the restaurant or have a cocktail at the bar. Beautiful view over an isolated lagoon. Lovely pool, thoughtful amenities in the room and all around the hotel (beach towels for the lounge chairs, after sun, games and books etc.) and wonderful food. As two girls traveling alone we felt completely safe throughout our stay. While this in itself already would have made for a wonderful holiday, the owner was so kind to us and so well organized - at the drop of a hat he was able to organize kite surfing and snorkeling adventures with trustworthy locals! Of course it is off-season and in busy times in high-season this might not always be possible, but after having stayed at a different hotel a few days prior, I’m confident to say the staff at ZanziSoul are all standout workers going the extra mile to make their guests feel welcome and at home. This was a truly wonderful experience and we hope to be back soon!
