The apartment was absolutely fantastic. And it was less than one minute away from the beach which made it easier to watch the sunrise. Sonia’s. communication was perfect. She was so kind and recommended some great restaurants. The apartment was decorated with so much style and the amenities were great. What a hidden gem. It really was an amazing experience, the swimming pool was also very clean.

Die Lage des Appartments ist wirklich super! Die Gastgeberin Sonia ist eine wunderbar. Sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück wird jeden Morgen in der Küche von Naomi (oder einer Kollegin) frisch zubereitet. Bei Ebbe kann weit zum Riff laufen und bei Flut problemlos schwimmen. Die Küche ist wirklich gut ausgestattet.
Das Frühstück war etwas einseitig, da es jeden Morgen dasselbe gab (Omelette/Rührei) und Obst. Da ich leider viel mit Durchfall zu kämpfen hatte, hätte ich mich über mehr Toastbrot gefreut. In der Nähe gibt es keinen richtigen Supermarkt, der fußläufig ist. Netterweise hat uns Sonia an einem Tag zu einem Supermarkt gefahren. Allerding gibt es dort eben wie üblich nicht viel Auswahl. Kein Obst, kaum Toastbrot (ist uns dann gleich geschimmelt durch die Feuchtigkeit). Nicht tragisch, so ist das eben. Aber man sollte sich darauf einstellen ;-)! Wir hatten leider jeden Tag Stromausfälle. Dafür kann die Unterkunft aber nichts. Trotzdem war das etwas anstrengend, da wir dann kein Licht hatten, Handy nicht laden konnten und auch die Klima nicht funktionierte. Das Bett war sehr hart.

Very simple check-in experience. Wonderful hostess. Very clean rooms. Decent A/C. Nice breakfast. Very close to the beach. Pool.

We liked the terrace the most, also location.
One bed does not have the mosquito net and there is a million mosquitoes so our son could not sleep all night.
Breakfast could be better.

We really loved this gem in Zanzibar- Beautifully located on the beach. The area is not overly flooded with tourists which meant it was quite peaceful
I cannot compliment the staff enough. Everyone was extremely warm, helpful and kind. A huge shout out to Philipo (our hero) for going above and beyond when we most needed him.
And last and not least, to the amazing beautiful owner (Sonia) who genuinely cares for all her clients and made sure we thorougly enjoyed our stay.
The mattresses were slightly hard but that's me being very picky

We enjoyed our 5 days' stay very much! It's a perfect spot for relaxation and unwinding. There are about five nice restaurants within 300 m and some small shops along the road maybe 600 m away. Apart from that not much to do, but to kick back and enjoy the beauty and silence. It's also easy to arrange a taxi if you want to visit the neighboring, more busy beaches.
A special thanks to Sonia, who is a very cool, accommodating and efficient host, and her entire crew! Also our best regards to the barman of Villa Vanilla who brougt us several meals and cocktails to our front porch, always with a smile.
We didn't realise until arrival that when booking the beach front apt, you don't have pool access. At the end of the day, we never regretted our choice, as the sea was more than sufficient most of the day.

Owner gave us tips and helped us for the rest of ou holidays
All went well so far

The decor was fantastic and we were a group with one at the beach and one at the poolside
Both were lovely.
The area is less touristy than other places which suited us and gave an authentic feel on the beach. The beach boys helped us to organise affordable and fantastic trips
Local restaurants recommended by Sonia were excellent and great seafood variety
Breakfast daily was also delicious
I would recommend Zanzibar to all my family and friends

We really enjoyed our stay at Namayani , Sonia was so helpful pre arrival and during our stay , the apartment that was directly on the beach was so relaxing , I was happy just to chill and walk on the beautiful white sand beach 🏖️ . Elizabeth and other team members cooked breakfast each morning in the apartment and it was spacious and well equipped with AC and good WiFi . A nearby restaurant was amazing serving locally caught fish . A wonderful escape .
There is a 5% surcharge on the rate for CC payments to cover bank charges ….

This was by far the best property we stayed at in Zanzibar. It is right on the beach and it has everything you need for a perfect, relaxing, unforgettable vacation.
The breakfast was delicious and was prepared and served at the time you requested.
We absolutely loved everything about this property!!!

There's no words to describe how perfect everything was, the place looks exactly like the pictures. The staff are incredibly kind, if I'm not mistaken about her name, Elizabeth, the sweet lady preparing breakfast for us every morning made every single day have a good beginning with her smile, her delicious breakfast and attention to details. I'm recommending this place to all my friends.

If you wanna feel like home, Namayani must the place you stay. The atmosphere was mesmerising. The view and the beach is fabulous that I never wanted to leave. The owner Sonia and staff Eliza are such nice ladies that they take care of whatever and whenever you need. The decoration of the villa is also perfect.
There is nothing that I didn’t like about the property but because of the low tide, it is hard to swim in front of the villa. Since I was there at the low season ocean was not too perfect.
4.8
The apartment is beautiful, tastefully decorated and very well maintained and clean. We felt comfortable from the first moment we arrived. The terrace is a paradise, large with amazing views. The host was kind and attentive, helped us with the shopping. We felt safe and comfortable, just the way one imagines a holiday. Breakfast and cleaning is done by local staff, they are endlessly kind. Breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. surprisingly large Huge fluctuations in water levels due to low and high tides is suprising. At tides you can walk in the Indian Ocean and you can see many animals, the scenery is interesting. It is worth walking in with the locals at this time, octopus, crabs, small fish and colorful starfish can be seen.
The noise from the apartment above us was disturbing.

The whole place is absolutely beautiful
Sonia took great care of everyone
and all the staff were super helpful and attended to
all our needs
The whole trip was absolutely beautiful
Only advice is to go with a good amount of cash as this part of Zanzibar has few ATMs and most places have a surcharge for card payments or only accept cash

the house is located directly on the sea, so no need for anything but sarongs and slippers. furnished with good taste. the house is located near the village so for basic needs no problem. the breakfast is rich and very good and is served in the beautiful porch overlooking the sea. The excellent service and the cleaning of the apartment is from 10. The staff is discreet and very kind. the managers Sonia and Daniel are very helpful, professional and very present for every need. thank you for this short but wonderful stay

Absolutely everything! The apartment was big and located just in front of the ocean. Sonia (the owner) is very attentive and she tries her best to make your stay as great as it can be. Very tasty breakfast, with a lot of fruits. She also tries to help with everything you need and has a lot of useful advices which made our stay interesting and easy.
Also the cleanliness deserves a good note:). The place is very quite, perfect to relax if you need it.
Also very safe, which is quite important I guess:). Highly recommend and will definitely go back if I’m on Zanzibar again.
I loved everything, I wouldn’t change anything :)
