Hotels in Bwejuu

Positiv:: A Home away from Home...we found the Perfect and quiet place, we were Looking for! We will defo be back❤️❤️

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: Nice staff, good food. Can definitely recommend this place.

Positiv:: Great location.

Positiv:: Perfect location and amazing landscape. The bungalows fit very well with the location and everything looks like a postcard. There is few people around. The location is paradise.

Negativ:: It could be more clean and more attention to details around the room and the bathroom. Although I really appreciate that they take care of dogs and cats which were absolutely harmless, I don’t think they should be allowed around people when eating.

Positiv:: + Quiet place without any beach boys + Bungalows with an ocean view (amazing) + Big rooms + Great breakfast + Really nice and helpful staff + Swahili BBQ was great + Very good restaurant (e.g. for snacks)

Negativ:: - Water pressure was comparatively much worse - Next (local) market (e.g. for buying water) is far away - so bring it in advance!

Positiv:: Sehr familiäre und entspannte Atmosphäre. Die Bungalows sind einfach gehalten, verfügen aber über alles was man braucht. Das BBQ ist der Hammer!

Negativ:: Alles super. :)

Positiv:: Das Personal war sehr liebenswert, fürsorglich und hilfreich, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Die gesamte Bungalow-Anlage ist ein Paradies zum Relaxen. Die Speisekarte variierte täglich, war übersichtlich und das Essen war immer sehr lecker.

Negativ:: Es gab nichts, was mir nicht gefallen hat.

Positiv:: Perfect location for some peace and quiet. And the place is so cozy and charming. Great owners but special mention to Paul the guy was outstanding throughout my stay!

Negativ:: Nothing major

Positiv:: Die Anlage am Strand von Bwejuu ist ein Traum und sehr gemütlich. Es gibt ausreichend Möglichkeiten es sich gemütlich zu machen (Hängematten, Liegen etc.) Das Personal ist super und egal was wir dort gegessen haben, es hat immer gut geschmeckt!

Positiv:: Paradiesische Lage und super nette Leute. Entspannung Pur!!!

Positiv:: Vielen Dank an Claudia und Mustafa mit ihrem kompletten Team, die die Evergreen Bungalows so perfekt und liebevoll leiten und betreuen. Die beiden stehen für alle Fragen, Ideen oder einfach nur für einen netten Ratsch immer zur Verfügung. Wir hatten das Glück, ein Zimmer im oberen Stockwerk zu haben, sodass wir beim Duschen die in den Bäumen springenden Äffchen beobachten konnten :-). Auch das Essen war einfach nur lecker, ebenso die Cocktails - zwar regulär außerhalb der Happy Hour nicht die günstigsten, aber jeden Shilling wert! Wir fühlten uns von der herzlichen Begrüßung bis hin zum Abschied wahnsinnig wohl und wären gerne noch länger geblieben. Fazit: Wer eine familiäre und freundlichen Atmosphäre sucht, keinen AI-Bunker erwartet und jeden Wunsch von den Lippen abgelesen haben möchte, ist hier richtig! Wir kommen gerne wieder!!!!!

Negativ:: Der Strand war leider - wohl jahreszeitbedingt - sehr seegraslastig. Aber da haben wir wohl einfach Pech gehabt. Das hat uns aber trotzdem nicht daran gehindert, ausgiebige Spaziergänge am Strand zu unternehmen und morgens oder abends auch ins lauwarme Wasser einzutauchen!

Positiv:: Ich liebe unsere urige gemütliche Hütte direkt am Strand , durfte auch das Zimmer drunter eine Nacht testen und bin mit allem hier mehr als zufrieden . Wir sind abends in Kontakt mit lustigen und interessante Gästen gekommen. Das Personal ist so freundlich , das Essen total lecker und Claudia , die Besitzerin ist die Beste und hat uns tolle Tipps und Infos gegeben für unsere Weiterreise . Ich denke , es kann nicht mehr besser werden....

Positiv:: the beach is fantastic. We had a great time swimming and scuba diving in the sea. The place is quite and could enjoy the private beach with only one or two other people or only yourself!! the place is very cute and well designed. If you look around you could find hand made art and crafts in every corner. If you drive, you could get access anywhere close by in 10 mins with lots of restaurants to explore. Don't miss the Rock Restaurant!!

Negativ:: the breakfast is a bit simple but you could order extra if you want

Positiv:: Awesome place! The Garden is just beautiful, monkeys in the trees, 3 lovely dogs an really friendly and lovely stuff! I can highly recommend this place!

Positiv:: Der Blick auf den Indischen Ozean war toll. Das Essen war richtig lecker. Das Personal sehr freundlich!

Negativ:: Ich kann und will nicht meckern. Die Lage muss man mögen, etwas abgelegen, genau richtig für die Hängematte.

Positiv:: Tolle Lage mit eigenem Zugang zum Strand. Schöne Zimmer mit Sansibar-flair. Tolle Gartenanlage mit Blick zum Meer. Super leckeres und abwechslungsreiches Essen. Individuelle Tourenangebote. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Wir haben uns sehr sicher gefühlt. Reibungslose Organisation des Aufenthalts und der Bezahlung.

Negativ:: Es gab nichts was uns nicht gefiel.

Positiv:: Gutes Essen, lässige Zimmer, Pool. Für 7 Dollar kann man sich Bikes ausleihen und damit nach „the rock“ oder auch in den Süden nach Jambiani fahren. Beides ca 1 Stunde Fahrzeit bei Ebbe am Strand.

Negativ:: Strand ist weiter im Süden schöner, sind eigentlich keine Pool-schwimmer, im diesem Fall aber schon. Ressort ist so abgelegen (dafür ruhig), dass man an das Abendessen im Bellevue angewiesen ist. Alternativen gibt es kaum und bei Nacht ist man quasi alleine auf den Straßen unterwegs. Haben wir aus Sicherheitsgründen unterlassen

Positiv:: Very warm and welcoming place. Charming rustic setting and very clean, with many attractive and personal touches. The food was beautifully presented, using fresh and local produce. Tours and driver were easily organised.

Positiv:: The Bellevue is decorated with thoughtful touches for a nature loving and eco-conscious traveler. Hosts and staff are amazing and make terrific recommendations for activities. Rooms are comfortable, with a lot of privacy. Property is beautiful and lush with many places to hang out. As a solo traveler I appreciated that immensely as I met interesting people during my stay. Food was delicious! Beach is lovely and not crowded. Also property is one hour from the airport and close to great snorkeling, the forest and other activities.

Negativ:: As noted in reviews the location of the property means the beach has a very low tide-so you will see a lot of seaweed, but it was interesting as local farmers and fishermen are harvesting seaweed and fish at this time. I enjoyed it but if you want to do nothing but sit on the beach all day-you May prefer elsewhere.

Positiv:: Book the villa! It has amazing views and you will never feel like leaving. Full of character, is busted by friendly monkeys sometimes. The bed is super comfy and the food is super tasty. If you like good music Paul will surprise you, he is also full of stories. Thank you

Positiv:: This property blends the experience of staying in a natural environment with easy access to the beach. The experience is more environmentally friendly than the large resorts and has a lot of local charm. The staff were both efficient and friendly and we were well looked after. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend time on the east coast of the island.

Positiv:: Everyone here is so kind! Perfect peaceful stay. We hope to return to Bellevue someday soon! For those who are sure-footed and adventurous, try the “Sea Safari” with Moussa. You’ll have to dodge sea urchins but you’ll learn about seaweed harvesting, coconut rope making, and fishing. We’d highly recommend Bellevue to anyone- keep your eye out for monkeys!

Positiv:: Everything. We wanted to stay for one night and made it three (would have stayed longer if there weren't a flight home calling). We don't know how to say anything bad about our stay here - Paul is an amazing host taking care of everyone and you can have a great chat with him. The food is exceptional and worth every penny you pay. Rooms are clean, bed is comfy and every night they get rid of the mosquitoes before you go to bed. Eventhough you're dependent on the tides for swimming in the ocean you can switch to the pool at low tide and have an amazing view from there to the ocean. We could continue writing but if you have the chance try it for yourself!

Positiv:: Tolles Restaurant mit täglich wechselnden Gerichten. Extrem nette Crew unter holländischer Leitung. Großartige Lage mit direktem Zugang zum Meer. Schöner kleiner Pool.

Positiv:: Nice staff. Good food. Nice rooms.

Negativ:: They could use a few more processes to make things flow smoother, but it was not terrible.

Positiv:: Unprecedented service, great location, beautiful beach, quality food and superb hospitality. The hotel arranged our visit to Stone Town and they have provided us with snacks, umbrellas,ice box full of drinks and water which shows their extraordinary hospitality Literally the staff strive to make all dreams come true

Negativ:: Nothing really, would only recommend putting window nets or some other solutions to prevent geckos from going into the room, geckos are very common on the island so not an issue with the hotel and they rarely go inside the rooms. However that is only a recommendation as we had encountered only 1 instance during our stay and the staff sorted it out swiftly and fast but we had to keep doors and windows locked all the time

Positiv:: Anna of Zanzibar is a quality accommodation; the villa's are very roomy and spacious. The staff cannot do enough for you and are very friendly and helpful. On an 'all inclusive' there is an abundance of exceptionally tasty food that can be taken when and where you like on the property - great breakfast on the villa deck, lunch served by the beach or the pool, dinner in the main house. An absolute treat and great way to get a few days relaxation

Negativ:: The Aircon was great in the bedroom; but less so in the Lounge and another couple said the same of their villa lounge. There is wifi throughout the property but the actual link to the internet was patchy and slow. We stayed at another property not far up the same road and the wifi there was 5 x better

Positiv:: Owner and staff are amazing, the location- amazing! Everything is amazing- more than you can ask for on a tiny, beautiful island. The small details tell a tale all of their own... enjoy. The food- omg- amazing!!! Honestly, as a family of five we can not rate this stay enough!!! We felt like were, and were treated like kings and queens. All the staff go above and beyond. In fact there’s more staff than there are guests- that’s the attention to detail this place has got!

Negativ:: It’s not even a compliant- soo much good food... all bloody day..... every day.... And so often!! My son asked for some crisps.. “Potato chips” they replied... He waited for 15 minutes and had home made crisps- delivered to him by the pool!! !! This place is bloody awesome!!!

Positiv:: We spent a magical three days at Anna of Zanzibar. The location is beautiful, the staff very attentive and friendly and the food was delicious and plentiful. It was perfect!

Negativ:: Nothing.

Positiv:: We loved everything about the hotel! It was peaceful, relaxing, mind clearing stay! Definitely recommend this hotel for couples. For escaping from reality!

Positiv:: Spacious Bungalows located in a lavish garden. Super nice staff, delicious food, very calm. Lovingly decorated. Overall a fantastic place to stay and relax

Positiv:: Staff were excellent. Hotel only has 5 rooms, all were full when we were there. Pool beds and towels were a little dated.

Positiv:: Perfekte Betreuung in der Unterkunft

Negativ:: Nichts

Positiv:: The service is great! Friendly, personal, yet not overly eager. Laid-back. The garden, pool and beach are lovely. Rooms are comfortable, spacious and clean. Very relaxing!

Negativ:: Perhaps the food was a little inconsistent at times but overall it didn't really matter much.

Negativ:: Ur Bungalow was very small and dark inside, but inside was clean. Staff is very friend and breakfast delicious. I have a good Time there

Positiv:: We really enjoyed our time at this lovely african style bungalow parc. The staff was the kindest. The garden has all different types of trees, which create the perfect atmosphere to relax in the much needed shade. If like to stay outside of the big resorts, this place is the best.

Positiv:: Sehr freundliches Personal, toller Service, Restaurant direkt auf dem Gelände, durch die guten Kontakte in die Nachbarschaft können umliegende Anlagen mitgenutzt werden. Das Fontaine Garden Village ist ein echtes Paradies. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt verlängert und empfehlen dies gern weiter.

Positiv:: Amazing garden with daybeds and a lot of green. This was the most comfortable hotel i stayed at during my trip. The restaurant is nicely decorated. The food is ok.

Negativ:: Everything was ok. The food is slightly more expensive than in other paces.

Positiv:: Das Personal ist mega lieb. Es ist sehr ruhig in der Anlage. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber, tägliche gute Zimmer Reinigung. Der Garten lädt zum Verweilen im Schatten ein.

Negativ:: Das Moskitonetz war aufgrund seiner Bauart (rund und zu klein) leider unbrauchbar. Aufgrund der offenen Bauweise führt das zu vielen Mückenstichen. Fußboden und Bett waren sehr schief gebaut, dadurch ist man immer zu einer Seite gerutscht. Die Kopfkissen sind viel zu hart und unbequem. Der Müll wird nur ein paar Meter neben den Zimmern verbrannt.

Positiv:: Had a good stay at FGV. Good service and courteous staff. Tropical grounds and plants make it a relaxing atmosphere from the onset. Loved my breakfast (maybe because had no access to food to eat outside of FGV breakfast until end of ramadan fast at 6:30pm! everyday) I was only one staying there the entire time (low season), but did not mind. *) The mosquito's were a real problem (because of the "makuti", the woven palm trees used to clad bungalows), this is a problem throughout Zanzibar, not just at FGV. They are agressive and HUNGRY both evening and morning!. I was fully prepared with mosquito coil, tablets etc but had to get Doom and even with blasts of Doom, they don't die straight away. The hotel were also very helpful with this, but there is not much they can do, as mosquito's just return via the gaps in makuti. *) Greeted with a lovely green coconut drink, straight from the tree! when I arrived which was really special. *) Distance of FGV is a big problem if single / travelling alone, especially at night and have to rely on taxi's at extra high costs. The main road is far and not well served, then there are scary bushes and NO LIGHTS at all. It gets dark at 6:30pm so you need to be indoors at this time. The lady at reception was kind enough to show me the road to use the first time I arrived which was helpful. It's a great place to chill though if you can get around the travel by using private transport or are in a group. *) Lady serving breakfast went out of her way to get me advocado which was nice although not necessary for breakfast. *No hot water and WiFi was a problem so used my own hotspot. Same problem in many places, not just here! *) Room was serviced and linen changed daily by hardworking lady with a big smile :) New management and the lovely yellow paint has been replaced by blue

Negativ:: Extra tips - : *) Do not go to Zanzibar during Ramadan!...cannot eat anywhere and it's not polite to do so anyway as everyone is fasting, some people say they can take you in jail. You can buy and make your food at home, not an option if a tourist. *) Masai men will always try to ? with you and ask for money! - be warned if single women & there's lots more where that came from - NOT RELATED THE RESORT :) *) Have stayed in several places in Zanzibar before and have not given them a rating, so this is the first place I will rate as had a good experience.

Positiv:: Spotlessly clean with lovely staff. Quiet and chilled out location, cute room, great value for money.

Negativ:: Could improve on the breakfast, the coffee, and the pillows. But really it’s still a great choice at this price point!!!! Couldn’t fault the cleanliness and the loveliness of everyone there.

Positiv:: You should be ready that it is a bit far from everything - the village Paje where you can buy nice fruits and chip food is in 3 km - one hour walking by the beach. But it’s quite and there is nobody on the beach, it’s beautiful. I loved small houses - it’s clean, very simple but you have nice clean bed and electricity, wi fi is working in the lobby. It was not a problem for me to have WC and shower outside and finally I was upgraded to a big house that included everything. It’s a bit dark in rooms, but there was no problems with Moskitos and I was fine with having only fan, it was not very hot. You can get to any part of the island from there - by dala dala or rent a car. Dala dala to the village cost 200-300 shillings, a motorbike trip - 3000 shillings. In case if you get bored:) Nice breakfasts (not every day and coffee is only instant that is horrible, but it’s everywhere here like this in Zanzibar).

Negativ:: It’s a bit far from tourist places but for me it was an advantage:) But you have to be ready to pay 10000-20000 shillings for taxi to get there if you decided to go to a party - to Red Monkey for example. It’s better to buy your own jam because you can’t get it to your breakfast. For transfer to and from airport here asking for 40 dollars, it’s possible to find for 20-25. There could be some problems with wi fi

Positiv:: Eine tolle Unterkunft, es sind kleine Häuser in einem schönen Garten, ein Essbereich mit Restaurant im Freien und verteilte Sitzgelegenheiten. Zum Strand sind es nur wenige Minuten. Das Team war überaus gastfreundlich und hat den Aufenthalt zu einem besonders schönen Erlebnis gemacht. Wir würden wieder hier einkehren.

Positiv:: The owners and personnel were very very hospitable and warm. We got an upgrade in our room. The garden is like the garden of eden, there are two playing kittens, two cahouns walking around. And the place looks beautiful.

Negativ:: There were mosquitos since the place is not windy like the places at the beach side. Eventually, they found a way to get rid of them, so this was in the end not a big problem.

Positiv:: Sehr ruhige Lage zum Entspannen und ein sehr freundliche Leute. Sie arbeiten mit einer anderen Unterkunft zusammen die tolle Liegestühle und eine Bar am Strand haben. Weiters ist das Essen extrem gut und günstig.

Positiv:: Silence in the camp.

Negativ:: Room nice but too dark inside.

Positiv:: The staff was incredibly nice and very helpful. We appreciated alot all their help & hospitality. The location was good and they were happy to accomodate our request to refund us our money for one night as we had to leave earlier. The beach was beautiful and had way less beach boys compared to other areas of the island.

Negativ:: - Only cold water was available for showers - They had left flowers in the room for decorations, we ended up having ants everywhere( including bed and bathroom) - There is no shade on the beach due to the lak umbrellas. The sunbeds had no mattresses only a thin sports/Yoga mat. - On arrival we were the only guests and were sent to a hostel for dinner. Hostel food turned out really nice though. - WIFI did exist but i could never pick it up apart from the reception where it was abnormaly slow (In comparison to other hotels on the Island). All in all, the rate we paid per night for rooms was way overpriced ($72/night) and the hotel requires urgent renovations. Considering it was our honeymoon, we were disappointed with the standards offered.

Positiv:: Jeden Tag wurden wir aufs Freundlichste empfangen und bekamen ein individuelles Frühstück mit lokalen Früchten, Variationen von Eizubereitungen und frischen Säften. Jeden Morgen wurde der Garten gepflegt und Mohammeds Umweltbewusstsein den Strand sauber zu erhalten ist bemerkenswert! Die Gespräche mit ihm, Said und vielen Nachbarn haben uns ganz besondere Einblicke in das echte Leben abseits vom Tourismus beschert!!! Sansibar wird uns ganz sicher wieder sehen!

Negativ:: Wenn man sich erst an die Einfachheit des Quartiers gewöhnt hat, hat alles gepasst.

Positiv:: The location was good and quieted. The unit we booked was in front of the Ocean, offers good view and breeze, however the breeze didn't go through the bungalow due to think screen window and mosquitoes's net.

Negativ:: Upepo Boutique Beach Bungalows 8 nights in Bwejuu 7 Feb - 15 Feb Lack of services: food and drink need to order in advance. second accommodate is much smaller than it appears on the booking. third, lack of hot water, cleaning need to order, lack of soap and shampoo. fourth, Internet is very bad, unable to do anything, the property uses a system pay as you go, which mean a service can be cut at anytime. fifth, property doesn't care or heard about any complaint from customer, it kept talking about an agreement with booking as when one book the place there isn't anything it could do....... all fault as the property doesn't deliver its services. sixth, when complaint with the workers, confront with laughter and nothing happened. Workers all seem nice and willing to help but they couldn't do anything to facilitate our need. The mean of communicate were not exist. Issue on security, no secured. The door was broken, it was so poor such anyone could just walk into the place.........seller or massage providers sometime walk up to the front door offering their services. Overall, $80 per night was way way over value, it should be $25 or less. Compare to places nearby, we had checked at $30 with great internet, restaurant, quality of room, and services. We had been robbed.... Thanks

Positiv:: Für mich war der Aufenthalt perfekt: absolute Ruhe am Strand, die nächsten Hotels waren ein kleines Stück zu laufen. Die vier Bungalows sind ganz einfach gehalten und haben dadurch einen wunderbaren Charme (für alle, die so etwas mögen). Mohamed hat sich wunderbar gekümmert und dazu ist er auch noch ein perfekter Koch.

Negativ:: Bei meinem Aufenthalt hatte ich tagsüber leider Ebbe erwischt - dann ist es nicht möglich, im Meer zu schwimmen.

Positiv:: Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Gutes Essen (trotz wenig Auswahl) und man muss einfach immer vorab schon bestellen, ansonsten wartet man eine Weile auf das Essen. Dafür wird immer frisch gekocht. Wer hier nach „luxus“ sucht ist definitiv falsch. Dafür kann man die Ruhe geniessen und hat den Strand fast für sich alleine.

Negativ:: Bungalows are NOT clean at all, especially the bathroom which was just unusable. Everything is old and poorly maintained, there isn't any furniture you can use, no hot water, the wifi wasn’t working (which was not very important for us but this should be mentioned), staff wasn’t helpful at all, breakfast isn’t good etc. We went to 4 other hotels in Zanzibar (and some of them was way more cheaper) on very good locations, and there was all 10 times better than Upepo Boutique... Once we discovered the bungalows, we understand why this was the only hotel we saw in Zanzibar that forced us to pay the whole amount at your arrival… Considering this, we advise the owners to change their prices to $20/$30 per night maximum (and clean the rooms), or they should renovate everything and upgrade their service to be competitive with the other hotels in the island.

Positiv:: Lage hinter dem Strand Aeusserst superfreundlicher Manager

Negativ:: 1. Eindruck, Niemand vor Ort Anlage wirkt zerfallen, unsauber Party mit dröhnender Diskomusik am Samstag im Nachbarhaus, 5 Meter entfernt, bis 2Uhr am Morgen, 90db im Bett, und das jedes Wochenende! Zugang zum oberen Zimmer nur mit steiler Holzleiter erreichbar Kein Personal vor Ort beim Eintreffen, obwohl Online gebucht wurde Strand hatte Abfall wie Stoffreste und Zementsäcke Meer-Abwasser von Paje riecht Alte durchgebogene Matratze Völlig überbezahlte Unterkunft!
