Clean, quite and so tranquil if you are a solo traveler but don’t want crowded places. The staff have kindness engraved in their hearts. The room was kept clean at all times and they frequently asked if I was comfortable. Their security top notch! 🙌🏼🔥📍 never felt safer. They made my birthday so special, the chef prepared a special cake for me and they had a surprise for me in my room when I got back to the hotel. I honestly enjoyed everything about this place, I have zero regrets and would book them again!
It is a bit far from most places and the long hours of driving from the hotel to different places was a bit overwhelming. Nonetheless I have no regrets, like I said if you are a solo traveler who doesn’t like crowds like me, this is your go to place! However I wish they could lighten up the place a bit it gets a bit lonely in the evenings. They have a nice beach view, they can make a good use of that place for some nice chilled sundowners and music!

I like everything about the property. the resort is placed in Jambiani, in a peaceful and breathtaking position. all over the place is extremely clean, with many places where you can relax and enjoy the music or the sound of the ocean. the pool is quite big, beach beds around it or on the beach. the villa is very spacious and extremely clean. the breakfast is delicios, with a lot of local fruits, fresh juice, coffee and tea. the staff definitely impressed us with their joyful, every moment willing to help us with everything needed. for sure we will be back next year. thank yoy for all you did for us, guys! it was a pleasure for us to meet you and spend time together!

The place is at a very good location conducive for relaxing and not crowded.The rooms have hot water running throughout. The hotel had a genset ready when they were power cuts.The staff was welcoming. Nyemo, Alfons, and Cosmas were so welcoming. Chef Peter's food was amazing and out of this world. And Abas, the hotel Manager was very very good. If u looking for a quiet place to relax and have fun in Zanzibar, Aquamarina is the place.
The photos need to be improved. The place is far more beautiful than the photos used to advertise the place.

It was lovely. Well situated. A little further from the crowd but perfect for what we wanted. Private beach. Fans and air conditioning. We were celebrating a few birthdays and they prepared a lovely feast for us with music and decorations and ordered us a cake. Nothing was too much trouble. Very attentive staff. Always smiling. Gwenna. Mr Abbas. Matteo. And Sharif thank you all so much xx
Showers could use a little more pressure but I'm being picky.

The environment is more beautiful than the pictures on booking.com. lots of renovations ongoing. the kitchen is ready to make anything i liked, they only wanted to make me comfortable. The staffs were really nice, supportive and always wanting me to be very comfortable. I enjoyed my stay there it was peaceful and full of love.
No traditional meals on the menu. though they will provide anything you asked for earlier.

Jambiani is quiet in general compared to nearby Paje. There are only a few rooms on the premises which means that the premises can never get too crowded. The property is well maintained and everything is clean. Breakfast was great at the hotel however its costs $15 per adult per day. Sandwiches are available to order from the hotel. Pizza and pasta can be ordered from a partner hotel.
Other than the meal options already mentioned you will need to travel to other restaurants - traveling costs money. This is not a bad representation of the hotel. I'm just noting so that travelers consider this. The on-site restaurant was almost complete so enquire from the hotel about this before traveling. Other people mentioned bicycles but we did not see this nor was it offered to us so not sure if its still an option.

Everything was perfect! The staff was friendly and always checking if we need anything. There was a small problem with water pressure and they fixed it immedietly. It was quite impressive. The pool was clean, the room was comfy and always clean, new towels everyday. We had wonderful time there. The food was also great, freshly made and tasty. We extend our great thanks to Wena, Sheriff and Subira and the Chef. We had the best vacation there!

To start with, we got a free room upgrade to an ensuite room, which was almost 3 times bigger than usual rooms here. There is a pool, where you can lay down in the shade. If you walk few metres more, you get to the beach with umbrellas and sunbeds exactly as in the pictures. This area is really spectacular! Also room is equipped with small fridge, TV and even a pot for hot water. It is a quiet place, so we got woken up by birds knocking to the windows, as they are mirror windows 🐦🐦 We stayed only 1 night, but we relaxed and really enjoyed the huge room. It is definitely waaaay better option than the rest of hotels in this area for the same price.

Peaceful place with helpful staff. The manager and chef went above our expectations with exceptional service and solved any issues we had, as we are pure vegetarians and allergic to many ingredients. Laundry service and food delivery as well as the transfer from the airport can be arranged (I think it was about 40 USD one way to the airport). They can also call a taxi for you to get to the nearest “town” (Paje); this will cost about 15000 TSZ ($7 USD) one way. They have fee bikes upon request at reception. Otherwise, we found tons of restaurants within a 10 minute walk (ask Abbas for recommendations as he knows the good places!
