Schöne Unterkunft, nettes Personal, aufpassen bei der Zimmerwahl
Pros:

Das Essen und die verfügbaren Möglichkeiten sowie das freundliche und zuvorkommende Personal waren top.

Cons:

Wir hatten die Villa 1, die Umgeben von einem Pool ist. An- und Für-Sich, ist die Idee sehr gut und kann bestimmt vielen Leuten eine Freude bereiten, allerdings für uns war es eher nichts. Viele Insekten, viele Tiere und eine Menge Geräusche (Personal früh morgens) entsprechend auch eher ein geringes Gefühl von Privatsphäre (aufgrund des Weges, welcher ca. 7m entfernt ist). Außerdem ist der Schlafbereich Nachts mit Vorhängen umgeben, für ein Stück Privatsphäre, allerdings ist der Ventilator an der Decke so schnell, dass man ihn ggf. Nachts lieber ausschaltet.

An architectural dream on the edge of the Indian Ocean — Bamboo Zanzibar is pure magic, especially for a honeymoon.
Pros:

Bamboo Zanzibar is truly one of a kind. The design is unlike anything we’ve ever seen — every corner of the property is a work of art, blending natural materials with incredible creativity. We stayed at the Ocean Lodge for most of our time and loved waking up to the sound of the tide and the most breathtaking views of the turquoise lagoon. Our last night in the Village room was the perfect finale — the largest and most spectacular accommodation on the property, an experience in itself. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making every moment special. Jambiani’s calmer, more authentic side of Zanzibar made this feel like a hidden gem.

Cons:

The low tide in Jambiani means swimming is limited to certain hours, which is worth knowing in advance — but that’s nature, not the hotel’s fault. If anything, it gave us more time to enjoy the stunning grounds and hammocks.
