Εξαιρετικό προσωπικό, ξενοδοχείο χωρις γεννήτρια
Pros:

Το προσωπικό ήταν εξαιρετικό! Μας βοηθησε σε διάφορες δραστηριότητες, το πρωινό πολύ καλό και το δωμάτιο πεντακάθαρο. Ευχαριστούμε πολύ Fatuma για όλα!

Cons:

Δεν είχε γεννήτρια κ αυτο είναι πολύ σημαντικό για τη Ζανζιβαρη όπου κάνει συχνά πολύώρες διακοπές ρεύματος. Κάναμε μπάνιο με κρύο νερό εξαιτίας αυτού κ κοιμόμασταν σε ασφυκτικά ζεστό δωμάτιο γιατί δεν λειτουργούσε ο ανεμιστήρας. Το δωμάτιο ήταν μικρό.

Ok for a short budget stay/ nothing fancy. But if that's your thing: go for it!
Pros:

I was warmly welcomed by the hosts, Mona Lisa and Fatma, whose hospitality truly made me feel at home. Their kindness and attention to detail went above and beyond — whether it was arranging taxis, organizing excursions and they ensured every part of my stay was comfortable and memorable Booking.com.

The property itself is clean, cozy, and peaceful, BUT things could be improved! Breakfast was functional. Hotel's location is just a two-minute walk from the beach - if thats your thing! And there are plenty of places to eat nearby, including the plaza, which is a short walk to the main road.

Cons:

Location is off the main road and not a mainstream location. I visited in December and the rooms were hot/ no AC (understandable given the price) but they provided a fan, which wasn't all that effective. And perhaps an isolated incident: But I never had good water pressure and always found it to be a trickle! Perhaps my expectations were not in line with the budget offerings in Jambiani.

Dobry!
Pros:

Bardzo blisko do plaży. Wokół pełno restauracjii. Pokoje w pożądku. Łazienka czystość przystępna. Właściciele bardzo mili. Pomocni.

Cons:

Non stop brak prądu w godzinach wieczornych kiedy to właśnie siedzi się w pokoju, próbuje zasnąć ale przy 30' i braku prądu cięzko. Bardzo gorąco. Ciemno. Polecam mieć swoje latarki w razie W :) . Ciśnienie pod prysznicem - włosów nie umyjesz :). Śniadania te same codzinnie. Jajko nalesniki i owoce. Ogólnie dobre.

Pros:

🌟 Excellent Stay at Mudi House Hotel 🌟

My experience at Mudi House Hotel in Jambiani was nothing short of wonderful. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the hosts, Mona Lisa and Fatma, whose hospitality truly made me feel at home. Their kindness and attention to detail went above and beyond — whether it was arranging taxis, organizing excursions, or even helping with massages, they ensured every part of my stay was comfortable and memorable Booking.com.

The property itself is clean, cozy, and beautifully maintained, with comfortable rooms and a refreshing shower. Breakfast each morning was delicious and thoughtfully prepared, setting the perfect tone for the day. I especially appreciated the hotel’s excellent location — just a two-minute walk from the beach and surrounded by great restaurants Booking.com.

What stood out most was the atmosphere: calm, welcoming, and infused with genuine care. It felt less like staying at a hotel and more like being part of a family. The combination of warm hospitality, convenient location, and excellent service makes Mudi House Hotel a true gem in Jambiani.

I wholeheartedly recommend Mudi House to anyone visiting Zanzibar. Whether you’re here for relaxation or adventure, this hotel offers the perfect balance of comfort, charm, and authentic local warmth.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five stars — I will definitely return!

Comfortable
Pros:

Comfortable and clean, friendly people. Short walk to the beach and near lots of restaurants, basic food shops. Convenient visiting certain places, it’s an hour across from the airport and ferry.

Cons:

Breakfast is basic- 1 egg and toast daily. Cereal would be good.

Pros:

Das Zimmer war ordentlich und sauber. Das Frühstück war gut. Der Strand war ca. 50 Meter entfernt.

Cons:

Um die Unterkunft herum waren Steinhütten, die teilweise bewohnt waren, teilweise zerfallen. Die Bewohner waren aber freundlich. Das Bad ist bei machen Zimmern außerhalb und anschließbar, wenn man es gebucht hat. Wenn nicht ist es ein Gemeinschaftsbad.

Bien
Pros:

Petit déjeuner hyper bon, copieux et fait maison. Personnel adorable. Emplacement super proche de la plage et des restaurants.
Pas de problème d'eau chaude. Un ventilateur dans la chambre.
Merci encore à Monalisa et à Fatouma pour votre gentillesse..

Cons:

Très bruyant, notamment appel à la prière (dès 5h du matin environ). Difficile de dormir car on entend tout ce qui se passe à l'extérieur de la chambre. Boules quies nécessaires.
Chambre spartiate, pas grand chose pour ranger les vêtements. Wifi qui fonctionne mal (coupe beaucoup).

Pros:

Everything was more than perfect! Mona was so special and allowed us to live real local experiences! That was exactly what we were looking for! Rooms were clean and cozy, location just perfect and the atmosphere very welcoming and relaxing. Thank you so much! Our experience wouldn't have been the same without Mona and Mudi house!

Nice and quiet place. Very close to the beach but the neighborhood is not great for activities.
