Garden Beach Bungalows — Hotel in Unguja

Vanessa & Marc have created the most easy going, inviting, beautiful space. You feel the heart, soul & family in the place. The team working at the bar & bungalows are their family- making everything feel authentic, fun, welcoming & bursting with positive energy. ||My 5th time in Zanzibar & I'll never stay somewhere else! I've already rebooked!||The rooms (fans / air conditioned, super clean & serviced twice/day) have great, simple decoration & the beds / mattresses are so comfortable you could easily sleep in & miss the gorgeous sunrise swims - in what is a basically private beach it’s so quiet!||The quality & price of restaurant - comparably to other hotel restaurants /similar plates in Jambiani & Paje doesn't get better... |the tuna tartare, sashimi, beef tataki-everything perfection (ans make sure to ask Pascal for extra "pizza chips" (the best little snack). The breakfast menu has just been upgraded & expanded for even more options (as if the pancakes, eggs & ALL the fruit weren't enough!) ||If you get lucky (& I haven't already booked!) the room above the bar is ace- you can fall asleep & rise with the sounds of the ocean (leave the doors open!) did I mention the beach in front might as well be private? Depending on the season & time of day- waves come up right to where you’re sitting for lunch or lounging on a sunbed ||Overall, there is no better, friendly, attentive and just overall lush & every bit gorgeous...

They recommended that we visit Mwani, an amazing macroalgae and plant-based skincare company in Paje that we absolutely loved!||The room was very spacious with a comfortable bed and a gorgeous decor.
